"Uncle Hunt!" Arora yelled as she looked up from the couch.
"Yes, Princess?" He answered his one and only niece.
"She smells like Chocolate and coconuts!"
The family laughs while her mom Poppy apologizes to Jhanna-Rae.
"It's fine." She keeps telling them.
The kids swarmed her on the carpet facing the fireplace. As she shared her snacks with them and told them of where she grew up.
They were fascinated by the games she played then, but now, Jhanna-Rae is braiding one of the girls' hair. She has done three already and was on the fourth.
Arora was next.
"Mom, Dad. Look at my hair!" Aleigha got up grinning.
She cornrows a heart at one side and curves going down to her back. Adding wooden beads at the two braids in front.
"It's beautiful, Lay." Her dad calls her over as she giggles.
Her mom thanked Jhanna-Rae but the little one spoke again.
"She makes me these pretty edges, see." Aleigha points at the curly hair, perfectly styled at her hair roots.
"I want pretty edges too, Rae." Arora rushed, getting off the couch, and took her place between Little Lady's lap.
Polly touches her eldest son on the back as she smiles proudly. "She deserves a ring."
He grins and nods in agreement.
"You left looking like a hobo, and you're back looking hot. What happened, brother?" Poppy pointed out and everyone looked at him awaiting an answer.
All he did was laugh.
"What happened to him, Jhanna-Rae?" Ryder asked her instead, ready to tease his elder brother.
"I gave him a facial treatment." She revealed and eyes widened.
"A what!" Ryder laughs out.
"You mean to say Hunter Daye allows masks and everything to go on his face?" Poppy gasped.
"Yep." She popped the p.
"What about his lineup?" His cousin added.
"That too." She laughs.
"Hunter, Hunter, Hunter." His brother grins. "I should get my thanks on y'all wedding day."
"Dad, Rae's blushing," Ryan told his dad Ryder but everyone heard loud and clear.
"I'm serious Rae. I sent this hulk on that mountain for you, so I need my thanks. I also call dips on Ryan being the ring bearer." He insisted.
Hunter kept his eyes on Jhanna-Rae who held her head back and laughed along with everyone else.
"Whose getting married, dad?" Ryan inquired.
"Uncle Hunt and Aunty Rae." Hunter's Dad chuckled as he finally looked away from his book.
"Yes!" He rejoices.
"Relax buddy, I haven't asked Rae as yet," Hunter told his overly excited nephew.
"What are you waiting for!" Another kid whined.
"That's so unfair."
"Yeah!" They all agreed.
"Kids," Polly calmed them. "Uncle Hunter and Aunty Rae need more time before they can plan a wedding."
"For how long, Nana?" Ethan frowned.
