When I closed the door behind me, I just realized what I just did. My back sliding on the front door to collapse on the floor, my hands covering my face. So this creep that followed me everywhere was him. Our discussion was so fast that I only remember accepting that he saw and met Lilah.

I get up from the floor and enter the living room exhausted from my discussion with Dante and immediately lie down on the sofa next to Pierre watching a basketball game. « Qu'est-ce qui t'as pris autant de temps ?" (What took you so long ?) Pierre turns to me, staring suspiciously at my exhausted state just by going shopping.

"Je trouvais pas les ballons mais c'est bon maintenant." (I couldn't find the balloons but it's good now .) I whisper him too tired and focused on other things to give him all my attention but he keeps staring at me. « Alors où sont les ballons ?" (So where are the balloons) And now I remember that I left the balloons in Dante's car.

"J'ai oublié mon portefeuille!"(I forgot my wallet) Then fortunately he gets up from the couch to get a beer in the kitchen and goes back with a glass of wine for me and gives it to me. « Par rapport à notre discussion pour me donner un boulot alors toujours pas décidé?"(About our discussion to give a job , did you decide?)

I roll my eyes, of course he makes a nice gesture to have something, he has been sulking like a child for three days. « Je peux pas et c'est ma réponse finale ."(I can't and that's my final answer)
He ingests his beer with two big sips and takes my car keys and tells me « Je vais au bar , ne m'attend pas ce soir !"(I'm going to the bar , don't wait for me!"Before leaving the house without forgetting to slam the door hard which woke Lilah.

Another sleepless night for me .....

..............................................................

It's three o'clock in the morning when I hear the front door slapping again and I decide to go down to see what it is , even if  I already have an idea of who it can be.

Going down the stairs I see directly Pierre's face, the disheveled hair, the half-unbuttoned shirt and a strong smell of alcohol emanating from him.

I pinch my nose trying not to smell a mixture of alcohol and vomit on him. And that's where I noticed... this red shade on the collar of his shirt and violet marks on his neck and lips.

I'm not stupid, I know he kissed another woman, even more ,but at this point I don't really care anymore . Since our arrival in New York, he is a real jerk and I no longer see anything attractive in his baby behavior and finally he gives me a reason to leave him.

Because I loved the Pierre of Paris, the kind and loving man but now he is none of that. And to think that I saw myself married to him...

"Hello chérie!"He walks to me with difficulty and carries all his weight on the wall. He almost falls but I catch him before he touches the ground."Va dormir sur le canapé et demain on parlera ..."
(Go sleep on the couch and tomorrow we will speak..)

Then I went back to my room desperately trying to find sleep.

...........................................................................

It's eight o'clock in the morning and I didn't sleep for a second maybe because of Pierre last night or maybe because of Dante, I don't know. I get up and go down the stairs, enter the living room and see Pierre in his underpants on the sofa snoring.

I shake him several times to wake him up until he opens his eyes "WHAT!" I roll my eyes, in a hurry to have a discussion with him to finish this relationship.
"Va dormir en haut , je dois décorer!" (go sleep upstairs, I have to decorate!) It's his turn to rolls his  eyes, get up, takes his  clothes on the floor before going in our room.

For two hours I decorated, placed the cakes and appetizers on the large table in the living room but also the activities for children and the table for gifts. Only the cardboard plates are missing since I found old balloons in one of the kitchen cupboards.

The first guests will arrive in thirty minutes so I rush to shower and change in a nice long white dress and go see if Lilah is ready since she likes to prepare herself now.

Fortunately, she is already prepared in her big pink princess dress, her tiara and her glittery hair clips. She turns to me when she hears the door open "Mommy! Look at my dress!" I immediately smile at the enthusiasm of my baby who is six years old now

I carry her in my arms after kissing her and go down to the living room. She starts screaming and jumping everywhere with joy when she sees the unicorn decoration and gifts from me on the table. That's when the doorbell rang.

One after the other I welcome the children and the family that I have left and that I have not seen in so long. Stella and Luka also arrived with two gifts each and Pierre came down from the room for the party... there is only one person left.

During what seems like hours, the adults talk to each other in the backyard enjoying the barbecue and the children run and play. And he hasn't even arrived yet, maybe he's not coming, maybe he's changed his mind, maybe he doesn't want to know his daughter anymore...

A knock on the door makes me go back to the entrance to open and finally he arrived but not alone ...
