“Sounds like to Mommy you had a big day today.” Annika spoke to her daughter. Katie babbled in response.
“We just took Wednesday out for a walk so she should be good too for a while. Noah’s almost done with the pictures from last week and he says he should be running those over tonight.”
“Thanks, Roxy.” Annika smiled.
“You’re welcome. Are you bringing her over for supper tomorrow night?”
“6:00 right?” Roxy nodded in response.
“Buh bye angel girl,” Roxy flicked Katie’s nose and left.
“Let’s see what’s for supper, huh pumpkin?” Annika spoke as the two made their way to the kitchen. Wednesday was already in there, waiting by her food bowl. “But first we need to feed Wednesday.” Sticking her daughter in the high chair, Annika turned her attention to her dog. A few moments of licking (on Wednesday’s part) and petting (on Annika’s part), the dog bowl was filled up and Wednesday was greedily eating.
“I think Miss Piggy as a name would have been more appropriate for Wednesday, what do you think?” Annika spoke aloud as she washed her hands and stuck a pizza in the oven. She then gave her daughter her bottle, which Katie finished as the timer on the oven rang. Placing Katie on the floor a safe distance away from the oven, she pulled it out and set it on top of the stove. Just as she was going to cut into it, the doorbell rang.
“I wonder who that could be.” Annika said out loud as she collected Katie and walked to the door.
Assuming it was Noah, she gave the peephole a cursory glance and gasped, her grip on Katie tightening. A squeal from Katie made Annika give her a frightened look and a temporary reprieve from being held too tightly.
“Oh no,” she breathed. Her hand tightening on the doorknob, her forehead resting on the door, Annika let out a groan. What was she suppose to do now. Jenna and Alex were standing outside on her porch, Jenna gripping her purse so tightly that her knuckles were turning white and Alex was reaching for the doorbell again.
