-Shelby pov-
It has been so peaceful since thanksgiving. My parents moved in next door and Alma has visited a few times. Frannie has also moved in to help with things. Honestly we have been very happy here.
I can not help but feel like I am missing something here. That something happened at thanksgiving and is happening now. My brain and the other girls are trying to block it out I guess.
"So I see that everything is out but not up" We all jump and turn to see Judy's mom standing by a box "Well this will not open by itself!"
Just like that the memory comes to my mind and it seems to come to theirs too.
-Thanksgiving-
"So I guess I am forgotten?" We all look at Judy's mom who has been off to the side "I know I made mistakes but..oh never mind sorry"
She is quick to get up and out of the house. It began a long search that lead to some phone calls.
-Currently-
"We forgot you were here again" She frowns and I stand up "It is not cause we do not want you here ok? Things have just been so crazy as of late"
"I would not know" I see Judy slouch some "I have not been filled in on anything"
"I thought Judy was telling you things" We all look at Judy who will not meet anyone's eyes "I think we have someone who has been lying"
"Lying is a strong word" I glare and she sighs "Look we have been busy right?"
"We have" I point at Judy "You have not! You told us all that you were talking with her? By the way what is your name? You did not say on thanksgiving which we still are sorry for!"
"Jennifer" She smiles and holds her hand out "Jennifer Car~"
"Mom how about we make cookies?" Jennifer looks absolutely ecstatic "We can make them like we used to!"
"Oh I should go get the supplies!" She is quickly grabbing a coat and her bag "I will be right back!"
"Take your time!" As soon as the door closes Judy is up "We have to move now!"
"Damn it Judy!" I grab her collar angrily "You lied to us! Lied to her! What the hell has gotten into you?!"
"Unhand me!" She pushes me away and points at me "My life is my life!"
"We are your girlfriends so spill" Maribel walks over to beside me "This is ridiculous!"
"You did not grow up..you did not have her as a birth giver!" I narrow my eyes as Judy goes on "She was the worst!"
"Well I am sorry I was at every event!" We all look to see a teary eyed Jennifer "I am sorry I was at everything you told me to be at! I am sorry I was the only one who paid for everything! I am sorry I was the one who stayed there when you got hurt! I am sorry I was the one who gave up all her warmth when you were cold! I am so sorry I failed you as a mother! Is it so bad I adopted you?...oh god"
"What?" Jennifer looks at the ground and Judy looks to be in complete shock "What do you mean?"
"Your mom, my sister, left with your dad when you were a baby" Jennifer sighs and shakes her head "She was so stupid! She was always high, drunk, or both! One of either is not bad every now and then but all the time is ridiculous! So when..when they went missing and the courts found out I had you they let me adopt you"
"You're my aunt?" Jennifer nods and Judy has tears falling down her face "This whole time you have kept that secret?"
"I wanted you to feel normal" Jennifer sighs and grabs her keys "Guess I should really be going"
In the blink of an eye Judy is hugging Jennifer "No!" Judy is visibly holding her tightly "Never leave me again mom! Please! I am sorry I was so bad! Just please do not leave me! I need you!"
"Oh baby" Jennifer wraps her arms around Judy "I will be here for as long as you want me to"
"God I love this family" I look at a smiling Maribel "Never a dull moment"
"Never been a more true statement" My phone starts going off and I quickly pick up "Hello?"
"Baby it's momma" I can hear the brokenness in her voice "Your dad finally had his widow maker...he did not make it"
"Oh god"
Everything goes numb as all I hear is mumbled voices. I just got him back and now he is gone again. My dad will not see his grandkids for Christmas. I will not see him ever again.
That is all I think about as darkness grows and the mumbles silence.
