Aurora POV

I was already to go for school when Auntie Lizzie calmly walked into the kitchen on her phone, I looked at her confused as she said, "Yes she will not be in today as we will be leaving a day earlier than planned, but she will be back to class next Thursday/Friday at the latest".

"Thank you for being so understanding, have a wonderful day", Auntie Lizzie says as she looked at me with a soft smile.

I just smiled back as she put her phone down on the island. I watched as she walked around towards the cabinet before she softly laughed.

"Where's Auntie Steffie this morning?", I ask curiously as she turned around with a glass in her hand.

"Auntie had a meeting at the club, but I was thinking that we would go pop in to surprise her with lunch", she replies and I nodded immediately before asking, "Are we actually leaving today?".

"Well we probably should that way we can get ahead of schedule, with the two dogs, yourself and my lovely pregnancy making me hate car rides", she says with an annoyed sigh making me smile a little.

"What if I say I don't want the dogs to come? Because what if there's something cool to do and we can't because of them", I say questionably and she looked at me.

"The plan was to be the three of us with the dogs, but I kind of agree. I know there's an aquarium on our route that isn't dog friendly and I would rather not have to worry about them", she says with a hum before she put the empty glass down to pick up her phone.

I watched with pure curiousity as she typed something, I watched as she went from being a little stressed to relax in seconds. I frowned a little as I wasn't sure who she was texting.

"My mom will watch the dogs", she says and I nodded a little as I was a little worried she texted Auntie Raffie to watch the dogs.

I don't.. this will sound bad but I don't trust her to watch both dogs. She can barely even make sure she eats and takes care of herself when it's just her.

"Well let's have breakfast and then pack up the dogs, Mama Olsen said we can drop them off whenever", she says as she went to fill her glass with juice.

"When we bring Auntie lunch can we get her favourite food?", I ask and Auntie nodded softly before saying, "We'll grab Italian from her favourite restaurant".

"I'm shocked that she likes going to Italian restaurants. Mommy refuses to go to anywhere that claims they make authentic English food", I comment and she shook her head a little as she replied, "Auntie only eats at a few Italian places, but she only does if her family is in town as no one likes hosting".

"I have a curious question?", I ask and Auntie nodded indicating me to ask, "Where exactly in Italy is Auntie from? She never said when she helped me with my project".

"Her family is from Sicily, they all live on the Sicily Island and some live on the mainland as some call it. But her family comes from a town called Palermo", Auntie says and I just nodded as I had done most of my project on the mainland.

"She's an Italian-Canadian right?", I ask and Auntie nodded before saying, "She grew up in Canada, but yes she is an Italian-Canadian".

"Would you both and the babies live in Canada?", I ask and she softly shook her head as she hummed before saying, "We'll mostly live between here and Sicily, but for the first year we will be living in Sicily as I want to keep them out of the eyes and cameras of the paparazzi for as long as I can".

"That makes sense though, because they can be very scary. I still have nightmares from my first paparazzi run in", I tell her and she softly smiled at me as she said, "Mama did a good job though of keeping you out of it all. Same with Papa Paul, they both made sure you stayed safe at all times".
