Kelsey, Paris & Justine sat pool side as they ate, laughed, talked & even cried .. They couldn't believe just how limited their time together was ..

Justine was a mother figure to both Kelsey & Paris and the thought of her no longer being around, or just a phone call away made them both sick to their stomach ..

They were trying to keep it together for their mother in law but their emotions were written all over their swollen faces ..

"I don't know how I feel about partying tonight .." Kelsey said ..

"Girl, please .." Justine said "Y'all go and enjoy your party, the world doesn't stop because of a little bad news .." She said ..

"This is more than a little bad news.." Kelsey said, as she wiped her tears from her face .. her heart was breaking ..

"It's life .." Justine sighed

"How about we stay in, cook, drink wine and watch movies instead .." Paris suggested ..

"No, no and no .. you're going to that party ..
We can have our night another night .." Justine said

"I'm not even in the mood to party anymore .." Kelsey said ..

"When do you plan on telling Shane & Shamar ?" Paris asked ..

"Um, maybe tomorrow .. I'm not going to make into this big thing like last time .. especially considering I already know how it's going to go .." She said ..

Interrupting their conversation, the doorbell went off .. "That's probably my mom and sister .." Standing up, Paris took a shot before heading inside of the house to greet her mom ..

Turning her attention to Kelsey, Justine grabbed her daughter in laws hand .. "Stop the crying Kelsey .." She said ..

Shaking her head, Kelsey stood up and headed out towards the beach "I'm gonna go for a walk .." She replied ..

Opening the door, a smile immediately came across Paris' face as she greeted her baby sister with a loud screech as they both embraced each other in a tight hug ..

"I've missed you soooooooo much" Paris said as she squeezed her sister even tighter

"I've missed you more .." Natalia replied

Finally releasing each other, Paris saw her mom not far behind ..

"Just forget me huh ?" Celeste said as she approached her daughter .. but Paris wasn't focused on her .. she was focused on the man not far behind her mom ..

"Who is this?" Paris asked, her smile slowly fading ..

"Paris, this is Derek .. My boyfriend .. Derek, meet my daughter .. Paris .." She said as she introduced the two ..

Smiling , Paris nodded as she tried to hide her disapproval .. "Hi.." She said

"Nice to meet you, your mom has told me a lot about you .." He said

Inviting them in, Paris grabbed her moms hand "Y'all can make yourselves comfortable .. there's food and drinks outside by the pool .. excuse us for a second .." She said as she guided her mom down the hall and into Shanes office ..

Closing the doors, she turned to her mom ..

"Where's my hug ?" Celeste asked as she embraced her daughter .. "Why you don't look happy to see me ?" She asked

"I'm very happy to see you mama but why did you bring him here ?" Paris asked

"Because it's time for you to meet him, and I figured now was a good a time as any .." Celeste replied
