We've been driving for the past Televe hours. We stopped off to grab a quick bite to eat, l had to make Stef stop for the night so we all could get some rest
We checked into the days inn.
Frankie took a shower, while I bathe
Ariel and nursed her. Cause she none breast milk in her bottles, something told me to pack the pump before we left. Stef's phone been ringing non stop since we left Tampa Florida,
I looked at the caller lD and saw it was Sharon calling, l just shook my head. What doesn't she get Stef wants nothing to do with her, she's probably wondering why she didn't stop by the house, l think being back in her home town brought up some painful memories for her. I wasn't going push my wife into staying somewhere
Where She feels uncomfortable,
Francesca comes out of the bathroom
in her night clothes. Mommy can you
Braid my hair when you finish feeding Ariel, Frankie asks me
I will. why don't go and get yourself a snack, ok mommy Frankie kissed
Ariel on her forehead and left
And asked mama nicely to put a movie on for you till l'm done
Lena said. Lena puts Ariel over her shoulder to burp her, she patted Ariel
On her back. Oh my baby that was a good one, Lena said to Ariel
She kissed her daughter's cheek
Ariel let out a wide smile. At her mommy, Frankie came back into the room eating apple slices. Babe l thought you were going to ask mama to put on a movie for you Lena asks
Francesca, mama's not here Frankie
Utters. Lena didn't wanna panic
Where can Stef be at this hour
Lena thinks to herself, baby she probably went for a walk Lena says to her daughter. Lena lies Ariel down in the pack and play, cause she fell asleep in Lena's arms. Come over here and let me do your hair Lena replies
Frankie walks over and takes a seat
On Lena's lap, and begins doing
Frankie's hair. Lena does Francesca's hair into to long french braids,
Frankie has extremely long curly hair
Like Lena but longer. Once she's done
Frankie l'm done Lena said, The little girl gets up and heads to the bathroom to see her. Lena hears water running, Lena knows Frankie
is probably brushing her teeth
She starts worrying about Stef's
State of mind. So many thoughts runs
Through Lena's mind, Frankie comes back to find Lena searching through the tv Frankie gets in the bed.
Lena puts Frankie's favorite movie
Beauty and the beast. Francesca
I'm gonna go and take a shower
Do not open up the door for anyone
Understand Lena tells Frankie,
Yes mommy what if it's mama
Can I let her in Frankie questions Lena. Yes only if it's mama
Lena States, Lena turns out the night
And gets her everything she needs for her shower.
