She suddenly felt a pang of longing for her kids. She wanted to reach out to Athena, but remembering their agreement, she held back. Instead, she called Tyler, but he had no clue what Athena was up to either.
Lindsay felt even more torn, but Tyler seemed to pick up on her homesickness.
“I’ll arrange for you to get back home. A couple of days off won’t hurt.”
Lindsay’s eyes lit up instantly, a flush of excitement coloring her cheeks.
“Thank you, Tyler.”
True to his word, Tyler arranged a helicopter ride for Lindsay that very day.
By the afternoon, she was standing outside her own front door.
Opening the door, she heard her brother trying to calm the kids. His movements were a bit clumsy, not quite what you'd call graceful, but he managed to keep the kids in line.
Lindsay breathed a sigh of relief.
Hearing the door, her brother turned, surprise and joy lighting up his face.
“Sis!”
Lindsay smiled, and without missing a beat, got to work making formula and doing laundry.
Her brother hovered around, still in disbelief that she was back so soon; he had only gotten off the phone with her a short while ago.
From the kitchen, Lindsay noticed the plain, meager dishes on the table and sighed.
“Is this what you’ve been eating lately?”
Her brother’s eyes darted guiltily, and after a minute, he admitted he had ordered burgers for the kids.
“Sorry, Sis. It wasn’t the kids who wanted it. It was me.”
Burgers were a rare treat when their parents were alive, something they could rarely afford.

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
