The next morning she questioned me up one side and down the other about my run the day before but I didn't share. "Why don't you focus on Thanksgiving babe, isn't it like in two days or some fuck?"
I planned to stay around the house today and the kids were staying home. They were going on break in a few days anyway so it shouldn't matter.
"No, I want you to tell me why we took the kids outta school and why Tommy and the others have been staked out in my kitchen all night."
"No."
"Colton, are we in trouble?" I hated that tremble in her voice, hated that she was worried.
"No baby, you know I would never let anything happen to you, but there's some shit going on that I thought it best to have my family where I can keep eyes on them for the time being. It's nothing for you to worry about, I want you to go ahead and enjoy your holiday and don't give this shit another thought."
