    With Alexis asleep in my arms, I rested my head on the wall. I heard my mom getting
    ready in her bedroom, and soon, the door opened and she walked past us. I looked
    over at the clock. 2:45. Great.
    I put Alexis back in her crib and walked to the kitchen to call Spencer. I kicked
    off my shoes and dropped into the couch. His mom answered.
    ?Is Spencer there??
    ?Well actually, no he isn?t. He hasn?t come home yet. You want me to tell him
    ya called?? she asked. I loved her accent. She was from Tennessee, and moved here a
    few years after Spencer was born. You could still make out her southern accent.
    ?Well, yeah, I guess. Tell him to call Kyla.?
    I hung up the phone and tried to guess where he was. I figured he had gone to
    the store for his family again. He always did, I doubted his mom had even seen a
    grocery store.
    Samantha, Kendra and Matthew appeared from my bedroom and Matthew
    and Kendra went to go play outside. Sam came and sat next to me.
    ?Why were you and Mom yelling again?? she asked.
    ?Because. Mom keeps going to work late, and she?s going to get fired if she
    keeps it up. And she?s having twins, Sam. Twins!? I cried, throwing my hands up in
    the air. ?Do you want to take everyone to the park??
    ?Sure. I?ll go get their coats.? she said, and walked to the closet. I smiled. Sam
    was becoming such a big help. She was taking care of the kids like I had when I was
    11. I got off the couch and changed Alexis into some clothes. I tossed her pajamas
    into the pile by the door and changed her diaper. I laughed as I tickled her tummy
    and she screamed with delight.
    We rounded up all three little ones, Lexie in the stroller, Kendra and Matthew
    in the wagon being pulled by me. Luckily it had stopped raining, and the sun was
    starting to come out. We lived about a block from the park, so we went often.

    We rounded up all three little ones, Lexie in the stroller, Kendra and Matthew in the
    wagon being pulled by me. Luckily it had stopped raining, and the sun was starting
    to come out. We lived about a block from the park, so we went often.
    As we got there, I was surprised to see Spencer there with his two younger
    siblings, Erica and Jeremy. Erica was the cutest kid I’d ever seen. Spence and I met
    up at the park on occasion with all five kids. Erica was 3 and Jeremy was 7. I smiled
    as we got closer, and he smiled back as he spotted us.
    “There’s that lovely smile.” Spencer said as he kissed me. I helped Alexis out
    of the stroller and lifted Kendra and Matthew out of the wagon. I sat down next to
    Spencer on the bench and sighed. He slipped his arm around my shoulder and I
    scooted closer to him.
    “My mom’s having twins.” I said out of the blue. I waited for his reaction.
    “Twins? That’s not good Kyla.”
    “I know. But what can I do?” I said. I bit my bottom lip. I didn’t want to cry
    now.
    “I’ll give you all the help you need, okay?” he said. I bit harder on my lip. I felt
    so vulnerable and useless, like I couldn’t take care of my own family.
    “Thanks.” I said quietly. I was afraid that if I opened my mouth again, I would
    start to cry. Things just weren’t going my way today.

    I put my head on Spencer’s shoulder and the wind picked up. I shivered a bit, and he wrapped his arms tighter around me. Suddenly the black storm clouds were back, full force, and it began to rain.
    I put Alexis into the stroller and Kendra and Matthew into the wagon. I pulled their hoods over their heads and we began the walk home. Spencer walked next to me the whole way, Erica and Jeremy behind him. He made a few attempts to hold my hand, but I saw Samantha watching us the entire time.
    We got to my house and Samantha took everyone inside.
    “Wanna stay for dinner? Homemade mac and cheese. Not the greatest, but we’d love to have you.” I said. I was trying not to sound like a total dork. This was the first “date” type thing we had ever done.
    “Are you sure it’s okay that Erica and Jeremy stay? I can run them home quick.” He said.
    “No, no, it’s okay, please stay.” I said. I smiled and he shook his head.
    “Alright. As long as you’re sure it’s okay.” He said.

    ILoveMyAbbyGirl, You are e VERY good writer! How old are you?? I am curious because I used to teach 9-12 English. Are you in college? If you are still in school, I am sure your teachers have noticed your writing. Is this something you plan to keep doing? You use a lot of good techniques as well. Good use of dialog, detail, and emotional insite. I am impressed!!
    Have a title yet? That is always hard. Usually comes to you well after the piece is finished. Do you have your ending in mind? Will this be a short story do you think? Well, keep writing because you have my interest!!

    Thank you, very much! I just finished my freshman year of highschool, so next year I am a 10th grader! My 9th grade English teacher LOVED my poetry, I'm sure most of you have seen it, if not, I can find some. But thank you!!

    I never would have guessed you are a 10th grader! No kidding. You write far beyond that I have only been coming to General for a short while and so have never read your writing but would LOVE to read more - as well as your poetry. I am normally frustrated at the junk turned in by even the best seniors I really think you have writing potential. Honestly. My e-mail is also at my profile page if you would want to send me things to read there - I would LOVE it!!
    Does your school have a literary magazine or newspaper? Have you submitted any of your writing? I hope you keep copies of everything-even if you don't think it is very good.

    Wowies... I guess I should be feeling really proud about my little hidden talent? I can surely send you some of my poems! I only write poems when I feel something... you know what I mean? Like now, I couldn't just write a poem from mid air. I wrote a lot when my parents were first seperating, when I feel sad, extremely happy, when Gavin was born... it has to be something significant.

    I'm truly honored to have you liking my work. I can send you my "The Fight For Love" story I wrote, if you haven't read it already, about the puppy.

    I will surely email you my poems! Right now I need to jump in the shower for my band lessons at 1:30, but I'll be back after the shower and after 2:00.
