When Tamika and Holly got back home the day before her 20th birthday. Artemis had to leave and re-leave his father of work. Tamika's family planned a private party with just them. Holly was excited about going to a new world. But was going to miss her grandparents and uncle, Tamika felt the same way.
It was Tamika's birthday the day before she met Ricky and told him she moving away with Holly. Elliot and Holly had a great last day together at the cinema & tuns of fun. With Ricky and Tamika watching over them. Ricky gave her a new charm for her bracelet as a goodbye/birthday present.

Tamika wore denim shorts and a yellow crop top with sneakers. She went downstairs to see her family already there. Her grandma had made all her favourite breakfast foods; pancakes, bacon, toast, cereal and fruit. Holly sat in her lap as soon as she took her seat at the table.
"Tamika there are presents for you and Holly in the lounge. You can both open them after breakfast" Grandma told her oldest granddaughter. Tamika nodded helping Holly cut up her pancakes while she drank milk.
"Then we going to Saint Kilda and the beach to have a picnic" Grandpa informed them. Holly started to bounce with excitement she loves going to Saint Kilda. Tamika made bacon sandwich and started to eat it. She then washed it down with apple juice.
"Are you girls packed?" Uncle Bob asks as he drank his coffee reading the news paper.
"Yes, we are Uncle so we are still going to Flinders Rangers after the picnic" Tamika stated. Bob nodded his head. They used to always go camping in the school holidays as a family. Just like they went to Saint Kilda for picnics all the time. Once they finished breakfast they went into the lounge Tamika sat on the floor with Holly.
Tamika got some new books to read, a camera and new clothes to wear. Holly got some new toys and clothes as well. Grandma Legna then left the room and returned with two boxes. "Your parents had these made for you both. For your 20 birthday Tamika" she explained giving her granddaughters a box each.
Inside the boxes were angel lockets with 'to watch over you and remind you are loved' engraved on the back. Holly's a picture of their parents and Tamika whilst Tamika's had a picture of Holly and their grandparents & Uncle Bob. The two men put the necklaces around their necks.
When they got to Saint Kilda Tamika took Holly on the slides. Whilst their family watched and took photos. After that they all got ice-cream going to the picnic area. They set up the picnic at a table. Then had sandwiches that Grandma Legna made with apple juice. Before they left they went for a walk on the beach.
At five they reached the Flinders and Tamika helped her grandpa set up the tent. While Uncle Bob and Holly built a fire for the night. After dinner which was homemade chicken fettuccine and garlic beard. They then roasted marshmallows talking about the good old days. With Tamika and Holly in their pajamas.
When Tamika saw Holly was asleep on her arm she picked her up. Tamika said goodnight to everyone and took Holly inside. She placed her in their shared sleeping bag. Before brushing her teeth and hoping in herself. She fell into peaceful sleep with her little sister in her arms.
She woke up the next morning with someone kissing her neck. Tamika rolled over swatting the person away. But they merely chuckled saying "it is time to get up princess, your Uncle made bacon and eggs."
"Why are you here so early?" Tamika asks snuggling into his chest.
"I missed my beautiful bride and I wanted to finish want Holly interrupted in New Orleans" he told her leaning over her. Tamika started to lean in herself.
When her grandma interrupted saying "none of that on a family trip. Now come and eat before the food gets cold" she stated. Artemis groaned, but Tamika giggled getting up heading outside. After breakfast the family said their final goodbyes while Artemis sent the luggage ahead of them. He then grabbed Holly's hand and wrapped his free arm around Tamika's waist.
"Take great care of our girls" Uncle Bob and Grandpa told him sternly. Artemis nodded as Grandma gave her granddaughters one last kiss on their foreheads. She had tears in her eyes as her husband hugged her.
"Goodbye we love you guys" Tamika told her family and Holly nodded her head in agreement waving goodbye. Everything around them disappeared the last thing they saw were their families faces. They then appeared in front of a mansion.
