Chapter 44: Emo Friends

"Happy birthday, Kathryn!" We sang, while I was holding the cake for her to blow.

She grinned and took a deep breath, puffing her cheeks and blow the candle.

Everyone cheered and we opened the lights. I put the cake down and said, "let's eat cake everyone!" and they went to me to get a piece.

I cut a bigger slice and put it on a plate, then walked to my 4 year old daughter with a big smile on my face.

"Happy birthday, baby girl! I love you so much. Look at you, my baby is growing up," I said, when I reached her and giving her the cake.

She giggled, her pigtails swaying from moving. I gave her 'Lilo and Stitch' fork and she started eating her cake, leaving the icing on her face.

I kissed her temple and stood up from squatting and went back to help others getting their cake.

The cake was almost gone when someone took our attention, making everyone stop.

"Excuse me, family, and friends. I have an announcement to say," my brother said, wrapping an arm around a smiling Sophia.

"We all know that me and Sophia are engaged and we've been thinking of getting married." He continued and all of us are silent, still processing the information, then we cheered. Congratulating them.

I walk to them and hugged them, happy for them. I looked at them as I pull away, "so when's the wedding?" I asked.

They look at each other, smiling with a smile that couples do.

"It'll be next year in August." He said, "before my birthday. It'll just be birthday sex and honeymoon the next day." He smirked, Sophia slapped him at the backside of his head, looking embarrassed and I have a disgusted look on my face.

"Please. Spare me the details. I'd rather have my daughter bleed my ears from her screaming, than hearing your sex life." I say, covering my ears. He laughed, Sophia is still red, but is smiling along with my laughing brother.

"Okay, sorry. Back to the topic. But yeah we are getting married before my birthday." He says again, "and Soph wants to make you her maid of honor and we both want Kathy to be our flower girl." Sophia nodded, furiously with a big smile on her face.

I have a shock look on my face, but replaced with a grin. I nodded and jumped, "of course I'll be the maid of honor! Oh my, and Kathy's the flower girl. Thank you!" I exclaimed, and hugged them.

I can't wait to until the wedding, even though I'm not really into dresses. It's every girl's dream to be chosen as the maid of honor, you know.

"You can also bring your boyfriend and his friends if you want. The more the merrier." Liam says and I furrowed my brows.

What?

"Are you sure on what you're talking about?" I ask, "I mean, It's okay. He'll be okay with it."

He rolled his eyes, "yes and before I change my mind on inviting him and his group of emo friends."

Sophia nudge him and I rolled my eyes at his childish attitude.

"Like what I said for the past years, Lee. He is not an emo and so is his friends. I love him, okay?" I told him, crossing my arms, pissed off at him.

"Okay, okay. Sorry. It's just," he sighed, defeated. He knows that no matter what he says, it'll never change my mind about the guy that helped me through the 3 years of taking care of Kathy.

"Well, everything's settled then. You, Kathy, Elijah and the boyfriend will be going back to London for the wedding." Sophia said, and I nodded at her.

Little fingers grab my hand and I looked at my daughter whose eyes are piercing green and wide.

"Mommy, what's the matter?" She asked and I squat on her level and smiled at her.

"Nothing, baby. Uncle Liam and Aunt Sophia will get married in August. And my baby is going to be the beautiful flower girl." I said to her and she tilted her head, confused.

"What does it do?"

"She brings the flowers and walk to the altar. It's fun, baby." I answered.

"Really?" I nodded and she starts jumping up and down excitedly.

"Everyone, I'm a flower girl. I'm gonna be a flower girl!" She exclaimed and everyone around us 'awed' and laughs at her behavior.

"Yes, you'll be our flower girl." Sophia said and she squealed and hugged the both of them.

I smiled at her and when she pulled away, she looked at me.

"Mommy, I wanna talk to Penguin!" She exclaimed, jumping in her sparkling sneakers.

I nodded and took my phone out, dialing a number and started ringing for a few times and a gruffy voice answered.

"Hey, babe."

"Hey, Kathy wants to talk to you."

"Oh yeah, sure. I need to talk to her too." He says.

"Okay, I'm giving the phone to her now."I said, about to give Kathy the phone, when he called out again.

"Babe?"

"Yeah?"

"I love you." He says. I smiled.

"I love you too." I said back and gave my daughter the phone to talk to him.

"Here you go, baby." She took the phone and started talking animatedly with her other hand flinging and walked to the other side of the room.

I look at Liam and Sophia, who are watching my daughter talk to the phone.

Liam looked at me and said, "your daughter sure is something."I looked at her again and smiled.

"Yes. Yes she is."
