Sasha paused briefly in surprise before replying, “No, I’m not.”

“I know you are, Mommy! You haven’t been talking much tonight, Mommy! Did someone bully you? You can tell Vivi! Vivi will avenge you!”

Vivian waved her meaty fist in the air as she said that, and Sasha couldn’t help but smile in response.

She’s such a sweet child, but there’s no way I could tell her even if I really was bullied!

Sasha returned to her bedroom after Vivian had fallen asleep, but her suffocating restlessness kept her awake.

Feeling like she needed someone to talk to, she whipped out her phone and began scrolling through her list of contacts.

 

After a bit of scrolling, she finally saw a name that caught her eye.

“Willow?”

 

“Well, well, well… If it isn’t the great Ms. Nancy? I didn’t think you’d call!”

A familiar voice could be heard saying that in a joking manner the moment the call got through.

Sasha let out a helpless chuckle and asked, “Haha! What are you saying? Anyway, what have you been up to lately? Where have you been?”
