Today Lena and Kara head back to Ireland to deal with everything before permanently returning to the lake house. "Be safe! Let us know when you get there." Eliza says. "We will. Alura, come here please." Kara said as the girl walked over to them. "Yes mommy?" Alura asks. "Be good for grandma and your Aunt Sam and Alex while momma and I are away ok. We'll be back in a couple weeks ok." Kara said. "Yes mommy I'll be good." Alura replied with a smile. "Now come give us hugs." Lena cooed. Alura walked over and took her mom's into a tight hug before releasing them so they could get on the jet. "See you all in two weeks!" Lena said as she and Kara walked up the stairs of the jet. Once the jet took off everyone headed back to the lake house.

"Are you ready for this?" Lena asked as looked over at Kara. "Moving back? Or seeing Maggie?" Kara asked. "Both." Lena replied. "Yes, I have to be at least for seeing Maggie. I want answers. I need them. We. Need. Them. Once that is over we can gather our things up and get Alura's school papers and we can come home." Kara said. "Home. I like the sound of that." Lena replied. "Me too." Kara hummed.

Back inside the lake house Alura is busy playing a board game with Alex while Sam and Eliza are outside on the wrap around porch. "I'm happy they're moving back." Sam said. "Me too. It'll be good to have them close again." Eliza replied. "Yes it will be. Now our children will be able to grow up together." Sam added. "Yes the will. It's good to have cousins grow up together. Have you and Alex decided on a name yet?" Eliza asked. "We have. We've decided that if it's a girl it will be Ruby and if it's a boy we're gonna with Jeremiah." Sam replied. "Both are wonderful names." Eliza replied as she put an arm around Sam's shoulders.
