Enticed - Season 1 - Episode 60

Trisha
.
It’s the weekend and today Tracy and I are the only adults left with the kids alone. Everyone went out except me. Troy had been on the video game the whole morning while her sister was on the phone. The younger ones Elizabeth, Kevin and Emily had been running around the living room.

Me: hey… who would like to do something interesting?

I said as I came downstairs with a big box of Christmas decorations and ornaments. The younger ones stopped to look at me and Leonard’s kids just kept on doing what they were doing.

Tracy: hey kids’ your aunty asked if you want to decorate the house for Christmas.

Emily: I love decorating

Me: I am sure you do sweetheart.

Tracy: I was talking to Troy and Rose

Troy: Christmas is not my thing.

Rose: yeah plus we are busy

Me: I often think the reason why these kids never get in trouble is because they waste all their childhood days on computers and phones.

I said to Tracy as I put the box on the table

Tracy: what can we do about it?

Me: well let’s decorate.

I put in a little Christmas music and I decorated the house with the kids and Tracy. It was really fun and it made everyone happy… Troy and Rose then decided to help us. When the other ladies returned I let the kids in the kitchen and started to cook lunch with them.

Mrs. Tyson: I feel lucky to have such a family.

Tracy: good, because for a moment I thought you are going to flip because your grandchildren were in the kitchen.

Mrs. Tyson: I didn’t mean you.

Tracy: I never thought you did

Mrs. Tyson: Trisha… when is your friend leaving my home

Me: just a couple more days’ mother

Mrs. Tyson: you know you are my first child to actually bring friends home

Tracy: I am not surprised by that

Me: Tracy will you shut up.

Tracy: cool I won’t talk
I looked at Henry then at his brothers… what their mother said was actually quite disturbing especially with the fact that I had never seen Henry’s friends and he has never mentioned any friends to me. He smiled at me and I returned the smile.

Me: is it true that you don’t have friends?
I asked him in the kitchen as he was helping me with the dishes

Henry: is that the reason why you seem so worried?

Me: well it’s kind of unhealthy to grow up without friends

Henry: oh baby… I grew up with friends but you know what friends are backstabbers and liars and they keep secrets from you so I don’t want any of that shit, besides I got you… you can be my best friend right…

He said and gave me a kiss. I felt my heart lighten up as he said that.

Me: well you just have a bad record of friends, my best friend would never ever do that to me. I trust Tracy… she is like my sister you know she used to stand up for me at school because I was too quiet and I let people get away after hurting me… I love her and I know she would never do anything to hurt me.
His facial expression changed.

Henry: babe I told you to trust no one.

Me: even you

He tensed up and suddenly turned away from me and started to pack up plates, it was really getting awkward between us.

Henry: it’s your choice weather you want to trust me or not.
