Chapter 3
Present (Kasey)
Making the girls breakfast I stand there wondering how I got where I am today, I had a lot of help from my family because I didn't have the girl's father in our lives but I wasn't worried because I had my family. If you would of asked me ten years ago if I would be where I am today then the answer would be no, my family have been there for me through thick and thin. They've been my life savers helping with my daughters even when we thought we might lose Bayleigh because they told me I may not be able to go full term as I'm having twins but would see how far we got, well my waters broke earlier than expected and I had to have a emergency c-section to get my girl's out safely as Bayleigh had the inbilical cord around her neck. They delivered my babies safely and it was the best day of my life by far, watching them grow has been amazing but hard work. Coming out of my daydreaming I see my beautiful girl's walk into the kitchen for their breakfast "morning girl's how's my beautiful daughters this morning?" they both look up at me with sleepy smiles on their pretty faces, Ashleigh speaks up for the both of them "morning mommy, were feeling good today but are still a little tired we think we should go back to sleep" which makes me smile because my little girl's are such smartass I have to giggle under my hand so they don't see me laughing with them.
I've got a busy day and I have loads of clients to meet so there's no way they are going to pull that card today "well that's why we go to bed early so were not so tired the next day" I say smiling and place there breakfast in front of them and they dig in, I'm just about to take a sip of my coffee when the intercom for the front gate goes off. "Yes Jeff, who's here this early this morning?" "Your brother Ms. James" that doesn't surprise me his always coming around early in the mornings sometimes it's a godsend but other days I want to kick his ass "let him in and thanks Jeff" "yes ma'am" with that I walk back over and have another sip of my coffee whilst turning towards the girls "your uncle Logan is here so hurry up finish your breakfast and get dress so you guys can see him before school" they don't even finish their breakfast they just go running and screaming out of the kitchen to get ready for school. Totally forgetting that Logan was coming around today to check out my east wing of the house which is where my bedroom and studio need re-doing because there was a leek and it completely trashed everything in its way so I can't use that side of the house. Needing Logan to see if I need a construction company to come and build me a new wing to my house is top on my list because I've finished planning the girl's birthday party.
"Hey sis, how are you on this beautiful morning?" confused by his actions I frown over the top of my coffee eyeing my brother, his up to something because he only acts that way when he is "what's got you so chipper this morning" he looks a little hurt by my comment so I quickly move along "and yes I'm feeling great also loving the day it beautiful" his smiling again now "where are my beautiful girl's" he loves his nieces as much as me because my dad, uncle and brother are the only male role models in my daughters lives and I'm proud to call them family "upstairs getting ready for school, come on I'll you the east wing before there come back down" I say walking out the room with my brother following "I don't understand why you need such a big house when there's only three of you" he asks smiling, he asks me that every time we talk about my home I know it's big but I love it "because I want room to let my girl's feel safe to run around their own house and garden, maybe have a dog or other pets someday also I would love more children some day and hopefully a husband" his smile disappears "damn sis that's not much you want and I want you to have what you wish for it will come sis all in due time" he says smiling as we continue down the hallway towards the east wing of the house. Once we've entered the studio Logan see's the mess it's in and starts running his hand through his hair which he does when his stressed so I know it's going to need to be redone "I've got a company that I know and I'm sure they will be willing to help so don't worry about anything I've got it handled" "I know I can trust you Logan but remember this is my studio and bedroom and I want it by the plans that I have done" "it will be sis this company are the best" "okay I'll leave it to you then, I'm trusting you bro" he continues to look around its makes me think I'm worried because I use my studio for my company sometimes, it's a better location for some of my clients because its more natural lighting because of my floor to ceiling windows also being on the side of the house which has more light coming to it.
