Stefania headed to the supermarket to pick up a few things for the house and the girls. After that she left heading straight back home. Stefania "babe. I'm home", Danielle "hey love", she said kissing her lips. Stefania "I could use a bit of help with the bags", Danielle "sure", she put on her slippers and followed Stefania out to the car. The two of them grabbed the groceries and took them inside the house. Stefania "so what's bothering Averiana? I never asked you while we were texting", Danielle "she says her head is bothering her. She woke up with a sore throat, and on top of that she has a fever", Stefania "why didn't you tell me earlier, I would have canceled the appointment", Danielle "nooo. Are you crazy. Do you know how long it took for me to make that appointment, yeah no. I had it under control babe, but now your home", Stefania "yeah. You're right, almost two weeks for that appointment", Danielle "yeah. Evie still has bad cramps, poor girl hasn't been able to get out of bed", Stefania "does she have the heating pad", Danielle "yeah, she's had it since she woke up", Stefania "did you give her any Advil or Tylenol", Danielle "that does not seem to be working, because she's been in there all day so far, in much more pain than she was in yesterday", Stefania "do you got the groceries, you know putting them away", Danielle "yeah", Stefania "I'm gonna go check on them", Danielle "okay", Danielle started to unpack all of the groceries while Stefania went to check on the girls, going into Evie's room first.

Stefania "hey bambina", Evie "hey mama", Stefania "mommy tells me you're not feeling well still", Evie "my stomach still hurts", Stefania "nothing's helping huh", Evie "no, the heating pad numbs it but the medication that mom keeps giving me isn't...

Stefania "hey bambina", Evie "hey mama", Stefania "mommy tells me you're not feeling well still", Evie "my stomach still hurts", Stefania "nothing's helping huh", Evie "no, the heating pad numbs it but the medication that mom keeps giving me isn't working at all", Stefania "have you tried showering", Evie "mama, I'm not trying to be rude but how the heck is that gonna take my pain away", Stefania "it won't necessarily take the pain away but it will help. That's what helps me, I put bubbles in the tub, and this", Evie "what's that", Stefania "this is basically gonna help, it helps me all the time when I'm dealing with bad cramps, so I know it'll help you", Evie "okay", Stefania "I'm gonna go get the tub set up for you, why don't you pick a pair of pajamas out and then meet me in the bathroom", Evie "okay mama", Stefania goes to the bathroom, turning on the tub letting it fill up with some warm temperature water. She put her favorite bubble bath soap in the tub, and the bubbles starting foaming, she also put a bit of medicine in the water that helps with her, she believes it will help Evie too. Evie "mama", Stefania "hey baby, are you ready to get in", Evie "yeah", Evie started crying because she was in a lot of pain. Stefania "shh, hey. Mama will help you, don't worry love". Stefania picked her up and gently placed inside of the tub. Stefania "call mama you're ready to come out", she said kissing her on the head. Stefania then went into her and Danielle's room because that's where Averiana was.

Stefania found her under the blanket, she was still sleeping. Stefania didn't wanna wake her up but she didn't want her asleep all day, that could make her sickness worse. Stefania "princess", she whispered into her ear, Averiana tossed and turned. Stefania "baby, mama needs you to get up, we don't want you sleeping all day, come on bambina", Averiana "mmm", she whined. Stefania "come on bambina", Averiana "mmm", she whined again, Stefania pulled the blanket off of her and picked her up. Averiana rested her head on Stefania's shoulder, her arms dangling, Danielle "looks like someone is still very tired", Evie "mama", Danielle "could you take her, I have to go to Evie", Danielle grabbed Averiana from Stefania, and placed her on the bed. Stefania went to Evie, "hey bambina, are you finished", Evie "yes", Stefania "where's your towel", Evie "behind the door", Stefania grabbed the towel, Evie "mama can you carry me and get me dressed please", she said shyly. Stefania "of course bambina", she wrapped the towel around Evie and picked her up after making sure the water went down the drain. Stefania carried her into the bedroom, and laid her on the bed. She got Evie dressed and let her watch tv, Stefania "I'll call you when dinner is ready", Evie "okay mama. Mama", Stefania "yes bambina", Evie got up from her bed and hugged her. Evie "thank you mama. I feel a lot better", Stefania put her hair behind her ears and kissed her on the head. Stefania "I love you sweet girl", Evie "I love you too mama", Stefania went to the kitchen to finish cooking dinner. Danielle "how's the other beauty", Stefania "she's better. She isn't in pain anymore, she's the sweetest, she was like mama can you take me out and get me dressed", Danielle "she's been on the couch sleeping still", Stefania "why didn't you wake her up? She can't sleep all day", Danielle "babe, she's been asking for you, not me. She wants her mama. That is why I said I would finish dinner, she needs a shower too and her hair has to be washed", Stefania "I'll go in the shower with her", Danielle "okay", Stefania went over to the couch and grabbed Averiana and went to the bathroom. She turned on the shower, Stefania "baby girl", her and Stefania got in the shower. Averiana was very clingy with Stefania, Stefania "bambina you have to work with mama", Averiana "I want you", Stefania "I'm not going anywhere love", Stefania washed Averiana's hair and then washed her hair. They got out of the shower, Averiana "mama", Stefania "yes love", Averiana "I want to lay on you", Stefania "baby we gotta eat dinner", Averiana "I'm not hungry", Stefania "Averi you have to eat, you didn't have anything all day, you are not going to sleep without eating", Averiana "Non ho fame però mamma", Stefania "Non alzare la voce a me, mangerai e questo è l'ultimo", Averiana "Non sto mangiando", she went to her room and slammed the door. Stefania "you better get her, I don't like her disgusting attitude right now", Danielle "what happened", Stefania "she doesn't want to eat dinner", Danielle "but she didn't eat all day", Stefania "that's what I said. And she raised her voice and went to her room", Danielle "I'll go get her", Stefania "okay babe", Danielle went to the room, passing by Evie's room knocking on her door, Danielle "Evie dinner is ready honey", Evie "okay mommy", she ran off to the kitchen. Danielle went to Averiana's room, Danielle "bubba, Cn you open the door", there was no answer, Danielle "bubba can you come out please"? Averiana "go away", Danielle "Averiana, please open the door", Averiana "no mommy", Danielle "honey please", Danielle went into the room, Danielle "honey you need to eat. You know mama is right, you're sick. You have to try and eat something, and the way you treated her was so wrong. You yelled her, and you know that was unacceptable. I'm not putting you on punishment because you're sick, and you need to go to the kitchen with me. We are gonna have dinner as a family because that's what we are, mama didn't serve you a lot either. And you are going to apologize for raising your voice at her", Averiana "okay", they got to the kitchen. Stefania was a bit upset because of how their daughter was acting, Averiana couldn't bare to apologize, she was so frightened because she had gotten in trouble, because of something she did on her own. She froze in front of Stefania and broke down in tears, her body shaking. Stefania and Danielle were both shocked, Stefania instantly picked her up, and tried her best to calm her down. Stefania rocked her until she had completely fallen asleep in her arms. Danielle "wasn't expecting her to react that way", Stefania "me either. She's so sensitive", Danielle "I know".
After dinner, they headed to bed bunking with one another. Stefania slept with Averiana and Evie slept with Danielle.
