Turning off the car engine, the Italian looks at the lights shining inside the house and sighs.
She grips the steering wheel with both hands, leaning forward and resting her forehead on the back of her hands.
Maya and the kids are home.
The text from Andy this afternoon leaves her speechless.
Her overprotective wife has gone behind her back and asked her battalion chief, the godmother of their kids, to give her a day off so she can accompany her to the museum and secretly watch the kids' field trip...
Due to her dating history and family drama, Andy is quite protective when it comes to kids sometimes, too. So she said yes to Maya.
Speaking of Maya, her blonde firefighter threw a tantrum and sulked the entire evening last night, wrapping herself up in the bed sheet like a cocoon, refusing to let her touch her.
This morning, she kept her distance until she demanded a kiss in front of the kids, which finally made her let down her guard, but only a little bit.
The Italian OB, who has been working all day, is already exhausted. All she wants is to relax comfortably in her wife's arms, drinking wine while watching a movie or some TV shows with the kids, or listening to her wife tell story to their youngest kid.
But she's not sure if her wife is up to have physical touch with her now.
"Mama!" The little curly calls out as he hears the door open.
"Ciao, bambino," Carina says, taking off her coat and hanging it on the hook while greeting her son.
"Mama, can you take a look my chemistry homework later? I think I did it right, but I just wanna make sure things go well." Andrea says, coming from the living room to greet her at the door with a hug and a kiss. "I'm going to shower."
"Certo." She presses a kiss on her son's forehead, then suddenly smells a strong odor of sweat and wrinkles her nose, "Go now, you smell awful."
"Wash your clothes and socks too, champ!" Mabel's voice comes from the living room.
"I've tolerated it all night! I don't want to smell that in the bathroom again!"
"He's a skunk!" Flora shouts afterwards.
"Champ?" Carina is amused and yet confused as little curly heads up the stairs.
Andrea grins, "My soccer team won against the other three in gym class."
"That's my boy!" the excited voice of her blonde firefighter comes from the living room, then quickly adds with a playful tone, "But you really do stink, baby. Go shower, please."
"Ciao, mama." little brunette says sweetly with smile, jumping off the couch to greet her Italian mama.
"Ciao, fiorellina. What are you three watching on TV?" Carina asks.
"Discovery. Mabel has a report about how animal building their home, so we're watching beavers building their dams." Flora explains.
Carina looks at the couch, where her two blondes are engrossed in the TV show. Mabel is holding a bowl of popcorn, leaning against Maya, with a pink blanket next to her, clearly where Flora had been sitting.
"Leoncina, scoot over, please."
Carina waits for Mabel to sit up and move towards the other armrest before handing the pink blanket to Flora. "Go sit next to your sister, please."
