°°Just another day °°

chapter 6 _Starbucks *

Lavyy and I decided to hit the nearest Starbucks and learn more about each other .I learned that her mom was a lawyer and a great mum .But later she and her dad found out that her mom had another family in Wimbledon . So she and her dad decided to travel the world and get over the fact that her mom disappointed them like that . I also found out that she had a little sister who went missing and up till today was not found . I told her about my boring life and about how I met Derek and the V's. She said that she had a best friend that she left behind , they would do everything together even stay together sometimes because her mother was abusive.

Lavyy and I talked quiete a bit before high school drama queen stumbled upon us .

" Oh Hi there Sammy " she says as if we're old friends . " Hi Jenny ,long time no see how are you? " I ask in a fake tone .

" Good and who's your friend?" she asks as the waiter from McDonald's for some odd reason is behind her .." I will have a big Mac with large fries and diet soda and don't forget the extra roll." she says

"Actually  I think you've got that covered I mean you did put on a couple of pounds ." I say before lavyy and I collect our orders and leave the mall and head to her Land Rover and drive to her house. Dinner was awkward . I still couldn't believe my situation but Sal seemed to be worried and nervous , so I broke the silence. " Aunt Sal, are you ok? " I ask " Yes darling don't worry I'm just fine . " she says mumbling
"Darling I think you should go lie down for a while ." says Mark
" Nope I'm just fine guys don't worry about me ...so wants dessert ?" she asks before heading into the kitchen. I get up taking some of our plates and following her . When I get there she is leaning against the stove as her eyes fill with tears. I run into her arms comforting my aunt . Why was she crying ? I was confused. " Sal .what's going on ? You know you can tell me anything I won't judge you." she nodds as she wipes the tears off her face with her tissue . " It's just that I can't stay here I hate this marriage , it isn't working .I made a big mistake and I don't know what to do ! My sister and mom won't even talk to me.They were right, I rushed into this . What do I do now? I think Mark is a good person and lavyy is amazing she doesn't think I'm the evil stepmother or anything she takes me as her real mom but I miss my old life . Our life ....coming into your mom's apartment and dropping austin off, watching movies with my favourite niece ." she finishes off.

" Don't worry I am still here and I will help you because I miss you too .You are like my mom , sister and best friend and I think we can work all of this out ok?BBesides , you're still adjusting in soothes nothing to be worried about " I support her

" Of course ...you are always there for me ..thank you . But I just need one more favour so that I can cope" she says with the Sal voice I know.

" sure anything "

" please just stay for a while longer maybe 2 more months until I feel comfortable with Mark  and Lavyy . Just stay before you find your real mom please , myself and lavyy will embark on your journey with you. But just stay here now .PLEASE I need to live in an environment that I'm comfortable with and that's you  " she begs

I nod and help take the dessert back to the dining room ." Wow I was starting to worry about where you were ..I almost thought you went out for dessert.." Lavyy  says and we all begin laughing. "Shall we dig into the precious and marvelous cook, mother and friends amazing dessert ?"
