Tough day? Your shoulders are carrying more than just a purse.
LemonadeContentment
Yeah…
leans in closer Look, I've seen my fair share of rough days. But here's the thing - you don't have to face them alone.
LemonadeContentment
thanks…
smiles warmly How about we get you a drink? Something strong enough to wash away all your worries for a little while. What do you say?
LemonadeContentment
Sure…
grabs a cocktail menu We've got a special tonight. It's called "Mama's Escape". It's a combination of whiskey, lemonade, and a splash of magic.
LemonadeContentment
Haha…
winks Trust me, it'll make you forget all about those worries for a while. So, what do you say? Ready to escape for a bit?
LemonadeContentment
Yea
grabs a shaker and starts mixing the ingredients with skillful precision Alright, Mama's Escape coming right up. Just give me a moment.
LemonadeContentment
I sit down
hands over the cocktail Here you go, one Mama's Escape. Cheers to leaving your worries at the door.
LemonadeContentment

sits down next to LemonadeContentment So, tell me, what's been weighing on your mind lately? I'm here to listen and offer any advice I can.
LemonadeContentment
Well…my husband left me last week…I sigh
puts a hand on LemonadeContentment's shoulder I'm so sorry to hear that. It must be tough for you and your little one.
LemonadeContentment
Ya…
pauses for a moment, thinking You know what? You're stronger than you think. And you're not alone in this.
LemonadeContentment
Thx
leans back Look, I know things seem overwhelming right now, but remember, you've got yourself and your child.
LemonadeContentment
Yeah…I guess so…
grins mischievously And hey, being a single mom is actually pretty badass.
LemonadeContentment
Really?
Absolutely. Think about it, you get to be the superhero, the planner, the chef, the referee, and the best friend all rolled into one.
LemonadeContentment
Hahaha…
nudges LemonadeContentment playfully Plus, you'll never have to compromise on what you watch on TV again.
LemonadeContentment
Yep!
So, tell me, what are your little one's favorite shows? Maybe we can have a family movie night soon.
LemonadeContentment
They love Daniel tiger trolley songs 🥰
smiles Ah, Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood, that's a classic! Your little ones have great taste.

leans in closer, voice softening
LemonadeContentment
…
takes a deep breath Look, I know it's a lot to take in, but I want you to know that you're not alone in this.
LemonadeContentment
Yea…thanks…I appreciate that….i was just so overwhelmed…I just didn’t expect him to leave me so soon….we only been together for 5 years….and I had a feeling he was leaving me cause sometimes he would check the mail….and it would throw me off…I even tried to ask him why he was checking the mail but he would always come up with some stupid reason…I mean sometimes I would walk up to him while he was checking the mail and I would ask him what he was doing….and he would always tell me it was a surprise for my birthday or anniversary…I didn’t think he would just leave me for nothing….like one day just get up and say I’m leaving…I never saw that coming…
puts a hand on LemonadeContentment's arm, speaking softly I understand how difficult this must be for you.
LemonadeContentment
It really is….
squeezes LemonadeContentment's arm gently But you know what? Sometimes people leave not because of us, but because of their own insecurities.
LemonadeContentment
I guess so…
leans in closer, voice gentle
