Today X turned up only 19 minutes late for a change. I opened the door and beckoned DD4 to go to her father. She didn't, just stood in the hall grinning.
X said hello to me but I didn't answer. Then he asked if he could borrow my car seat as he forgot his. I sighed and went and fetched it.
Then he took DD4 and said goodbye to me. Still didn't answer and shut the door. Didn't even look at him so I don't know what he was wearing, even.
For some reason I feel really upset and down and I was sat at my desk in tears just for a few moments after he left. I don't know where that has come from.
He is bringing DD4 back later, supposedly 4pm but he will be late.
