For the Guy with Kids and a WW Dix-Sept

[hopeful4her]

Don't be so happy for me, beej.

I picked up my girls early today. We all got to the apartment to let the dog out for a bit and had to wait for S14 to get home. By the door, behind the sofa was a pair of tennis shoes.

D7 says, "Oh, those are Tom's". D11 had gone straight to the bathroom and didn't see them or just didn't comment on them. I go to the wifes bathroom and....

the bag was back. As I'm in the bathroom looking and D7 trying to tell me that she thinks that her mom must have found that stuff, she goes to D11. I then walk out of the bathroom and hear D11 getting on D7. Asking her why she said anything and that she had a big mouth.

Turns out that he still comes around. I lost my temper and sent OM a text,

"Quit leaving your sh*t out so that my kids know u were here f*cking their still married mom when they're not here, mother f*cker!"

I took his shoes and threw them out on the other side of the parking lot. D7 saw me taking them and I told her to go back inside. D11 is coming outside as I'm coming back in and asks me, "Why did you put the shoes in the car?"
"I didn't."
"What did you do? Did you throw them away?" She is saying this with a smile.

I told her to not worry about it, with a smile. We all have a quick talk. D11 says that she just doesn't care any more what her mom does and she doesn't care what I do, either. I asked her what that meant. "I mean when we're with you, I care. I just don't want any drama anymore."

S14 comes home and pretty much acts like nothing even though I had gone to get D7 a few things from her room. They were talking in the front bedroom with the door closed. Leaving, I ask S14 where some tv antennae's that I had left off before were. He said I had to ask his mom. I called her at work. She answered after a while.
"Hey."
"Hey."
"You busy?"
"I have a member with me."
I asked her where the things were. She told me, I said ok, we paused and then I hung up on her. I get the stuff and leave.

On the way home, I begin to talk to the kids. D7 had fallen asleep. S14 started on me about how everyone has moved on. Whats wrong with Tom. I let him know that its not right for married people to have boyfriends or girlfriends. He doesn't believe that. The we're not together, so its ok. We go back and forth a bit. He says that all we have is a piece of paper. Thats nothing. I tell him that isn't how we raised him, but that's what he has seen with his mom and dad and also his grandmother. He says that we need to move on. "You and mom keep bringing up stuff. Just leave the girls alone." We talk some more and kind of leave it. He takes a phone call.

I begin to talk to D11 who is in the front with me. I tell her I didn't know OM was still coming around. She begins to tell me that her mother had a talk with her a few weeks ago. How OM is NOT her boyfriend. Just a friend. "Mom says you knew they were friends."
I tell her the truth. He IS her boyfriend and has been for almost a year. I let her know I love her mom, that she is not a bad person, but she is upset. "How can someone do that?" I remind her that I told her that I would never lie to her. "Mom told me the same thing. Mom IS a liar."

We talk just a little more and we get home. I get a text as I pull up,

"dont ever text me again boy only warning"

I text him back. I know I shouldn't have,

"Don't threaten me, sh*thead"

He texted back,

"not a threat I promiss"

I left it at that. It was damn hard not to text him back and make fun of his spelling.

So now its time to finish making dinner. We'll see what the night brings tonight. Check in later.

I get a text back,

"dont ever text me again boy only warning"
