It's a little over 2:00 in the morning, when the back door to the Hart's home slowly begins to turn. Kyra is fiddling with the door to get it open. She shivered and quietly tries to sneak back to her room, hoping her mother hadn't noticed her departure. Kyra walks into the kitchen, she looks around the pitch black kitchen, and sighs in relief. "Pheww, that was a close one." she whispered to herself.
Little did Kyra know, Reba is sitting at the kitchen table, and she wasn't too happy that her youngest daughter had sneaked off to that Panic at the Disco concert, after she specifically told her not to. Reba wears an expression of both anger and worrisome.
"Oh Kyra, my sweet daughter, how nice of you to finally return home. It always brings joy to a mother to see their daughter at 2 in the mornin." she said sarcastically.
Kyra was startled at the sound of her mom's voice and felt her heart race. "Oh Mom, ...I...um was just getting a glass of water, my throat feels a little dry." she knows her lie is meek, but hopes to god her mom hadn't noticed her just walk in.
"But, you're shivering? And our house is pretty warm. Unless you got cold from opening the fridge." said Reba.
"Well, you see I actually opened the freezer to get some ice cubes, for my glass of water. And the freezer's pretty cool."
"Nice try, you march upstairs right now and go to bed!"
"But I can expla-"
"I don't wanna hear it, we'll talk about this in the morning."
Van walks into the kitchen somnambulating, he walks right passed Reba, and opens the fridge. He shivers.
"Oh dear God." Reba says while rolling her eyes. "I'm going back to bed."
Reba finally made it back to her room, and gets into bed. She starts to doze off as she hears the phone ring. "Who the heck is callin me at 3 in morning." she says to herself.
"Hello?" Reba says half sleeping, half annoyed.
"Reba?" says a familiar voice.
"Jack?" she says surprised. "Is that you?"
"Yes, Reba it's me. I have to talk to you."
"I haven't heard from you in the past six months, and now you wanna talk to me at 3 in the mornin."
"I know, I'm sorry. But I just had to tell you." he said.
"Tell me what?"
"My divorce is finalized. And I was wonderin if maybe me and you can go out together." he stopped himself from talking."What am I saying, you probably moved on."
"No, no I'm still single." Reba said cheerfully. "But when was your divorce finalized?"
"5 minutes ago."
"Jack you realize, it's over 3 in the mornin?" she stated.
"Oh, I know. But Sheryl just signed the papers. So i'm legally divorced."
"Jack, I'm really glad for yo-us. But why don't you come over tomorrow, and we'll talk about it."
"Oh yeah, sorry. See you tomorrow. Bye"
"Bye."
She hung up the phone, she smiled before she went to bed. And before you knew it she fell into a deep slumber.
