This new routine of ours was continuing. We spent that first day home together, and then Makai went to school on Tuesday. He stayed home with me on Wednesday, and now he was back at school today. Tomorrow, Friday, he wasn't sure if he was going to stay home or go to school for half the day so he could get our work.
I was currently sitting at the island in the kitchen on one of the bar stools, doing my homework and eating a bowl of cereal. I wasn't going to try cooking again until Makai was here with me. I didn't need a mess like that again; that was why today's lunch was cereal.
Suddenly, I heard the front door being opened with a key. I was certain that it was Makai coming home from school. But that made no sense at all, he was supposed to be there all day today. I slid from the stool and started for the front hall so that I could see why he was home so early.
