#Leonie is a woman in her 40s, she could be your neighbor. After her divorce, she builds her new life. With neighbor Mandy she has dinner appointments of the good kind: Mandy cooks! Love also comes around the corner, with all the consequences that entails.

It was weird waking up on her birthday when no one was home. No children who were busy with gifts and couldn't wait for her to wake up on her own. Luckily they would be there this afternoon when she celebrated her birthday.

Leonie went to the kitchen in her bathrobe to make breakfast for herself and sang softly 'There's one birthday, hurray hurrah, 'but she didn't feel much jarer. When she sat at her dining table with a cup of yogurt, a cup of tea, and to increase the revelation, a glass of orange juice, she turned on her laptop and was congratulated by a couple of friends via Facebook. Look, that's the advantage of social media, although she always liked getting cards. Unfortunately, that was also a thing of the past.

Leonie's parents were the first to come for her birthday. Her mother enthusiastically walked into the house and congratulated her daughter on her birthday. “We solved the problems with Demi!” she said as she walked into the living room, her handbag tightly clamped in her hands. “Ow?” asked Leonie vaguely as she looked at her father. He gave her a wink. All three of them sat down. “Yeah, you know what we're going to do? By the time it gets heavier for Dagmar, she moves to Michiel so he can take care of her and everything is on hand for the baby. Demi stays in Dagmar's apartment until she finds a room. And we pay the rent for Demi.” Now she looked at Leonie triumphantly in anticipation of his reaction. Leonie chopping. “Eh... yes... Gosh! What a good solution!” Actually, she laughed at her mother, who now brought the solution that her father had told her a while ago as if she had invented it herself. Her father was chucking.

“What is so funny Leendert? Just because it's solved doesn't mean that it's suddenly fun, I've been awake nights of it!” Leonie's father didn't say anything, but he stopped laughing. “Well, I'm happy about that, another problem from the world,” said Leonie. “Do you want tea or coffee?” She got up and walked into the kitchen. Meanwhile, she heard rumors and voices at the front door. Her children were there!
