A Leap of Faith (Part 2)

Chapter 219 - Last Day in Hawaii

Right now in Hawaii it is later on in the evening, and Kara, Lena, Morgan, Alura and Eliza are just coming out after having had their dinner in downtown Honolulu. They have actually got some pretty good timing, as just as they are walking out of the restaurant, and in the direction of the ocean front, the fireworks have begun. So, they are all looking up at them in amazement right now, especially Morgan and Alura.

"Mommy, I can't see!" Morgan says, as they all walk along.

For a moment, as they continue to walk, Kara doesn't actually take note of what Morgan just said, as Morgan calls her jeju, not mommy, because she doesn't want to call Kara by the same name of her birth mother. However, after a few moments, Kara looks down at her youngest daughter, and that is when she realises that Morgan was talking to her.

"Oh.... I'm sorry." Kara says, in regards to not responding to Morgan right away, "How about you come on up onto my shoulders?"

"Yeah." Morgan nods, eagerly, "But quickly, mommy, I'm missing the fireworks."

"Okay." Kara says, as she feels her breath catch, from how she feels about Morgan suddenly calling her mommy.

Honestly, Kara isn't too sure how she should be feeling right now, as it's not like this is a big step in their relationship as mother and daughter or anything. Morgan already has been calling her jeju for months now, which is the Kryptonian word for mother, and Kara sees that as being just as significant as Morgan calling her mommy, like Alura does. However, there is just something about the fact that Morgan is calling her mommy that feels special to Kara. It has made her heart start to beat really fast, while the blonde feels absolutely amazing, even if a part of her does wonder what has prompted the sudden change from Morgan.

Despite Kara having these thoughts, she quickly gets down onto her knees, and allows Morgan to climb up onto her shoulders.

"Hold onto my hands." Kara says, as she holds up her hands to Morgan.

Morgan takes Kara's hands, and Kara then stands up, giving Morgan a very good view of the fireworks, as they continue to walk closer to the coast.

For the next few minutes, Kara, Lena, Eliza and Alura continue to walk in the direction of the sea front, with Morgan still being on Kara's shoulders. Eventually though, they do reach their destination, where they stop and admire the rest of the fireworks for a little while. Throughout this, Morgan doesn't make any attempt to move off of Kara's shoulders or anything, and continues to hold onto the blonde's hands as she sits there, with a big happy smile on her face, and eyes wide as she takes the fireworks in.

About 5 more minutes later, the fireworks finally come to an end, with all the crowds that have gathered to watch the fireworks starting to disperse. Lena, Kara, and Eliza know this means that they should probably head back to their villa, and go to bed for the evening.

"Jeju?" Morgan says, now calling Kara jeju again, which Kara does make note of.

"Yes, baby?" Kara replies.

"Can I get down, and can you carry me instead? I'm tired." Morgan says, in a cute voice.

"Of course I can, baby." Kara says.

Kara then uses her strength to simply lift Morgan up off of her shoulders, and then carry the 4-year-old in her arms, with Morgan cuddling her head further into Kara's chest.

"Alright. I think we should all head home now." Lena says.

"Yeah. I agree." Kara nods, "I think this one's getting tired."

Morgan simply mumbles something at Kara saying that, the 4-year-old quickly starting to give into sleepiness, a clear result of the adrenaline leaving her body after watching the fireworks.
