The Other Side Part 2

20.

Few days later
I told Melanie what happened and she didn't believe me. I went back to where Rita's store was but nothing was there, it was like she was part of my imagination. Maybe it was just some crazy dream, I was drunk at the time.

Melanie was taking Talia out for a girls day with Cindia and Mila while I go out with Preston, Eric and Liam. We were going to a basketball game while they went to go to some spa.

"You ready to have some fun!"

"Yeah!" Preston screamed throwing his hands up.

We got to the game siting in our seats in a private booth it was great time to spend with my son, brother and nephew. Preston did pretty good his first time at a game he sat next to me the entire time just watching the players run back and forth.

Melanie's P.O.V
We reached the spa and were quickly pampered once we walked in. The lady's grabbed our purses and shoes giving us robes and slippers. They gave us small robes for our little girls and were taken in a larger room with other women talking and being messaged.

"Wow our husbands did good."

"Yes they did!" Cindia said as we sat next to each other and our girls were in between us giggling from the lady's trying to paint their toes.

I laid back with my eyes closed feeling them message my legs and feet. I slowly started to fall asleep.

"Mommy!" I felt little hands hitting my arm rememinding me that I'm a mother and can never get a minute to my self. I looked down to her smiling.

"Yes mija?"

"Look my toes are pwetty!" she grabbed her feet showing me.

"Wow they are sparkling we are going to match." she smiled at me so big and I just loved how I was a mother again.

"Okay im going to the bathroom stay here with tia okay." I said to Talia as I got up and walked to the restroom.

I stood in the bathroom and passed a mirror. I looked at my face seeing my skin a little pale with dark circles under my eyes. I slowly started moving down my body, I opened my robe I began to study my body, I saw that I have gained weight since the twins. I began to feel self conscious and began to tear up. My phone vibrated in my robe bringing me from my thoughts.

"We just got home take your time at the spa you deserve it beautiful! See you when you get here. I love you!"

I smiled at my phone and texted him back. I wiped my eyes and went back out. I seen Cindia talking to someone but I couldn't tell since their back was facing me.

"Mommy save me!" Talia ran to me trying to get away from Mila. I quickly picked her up and ran away from Mila making them laugh. I laughed and set her down letting them run then walked to Cindia and who ever she was talking to.

As I got closer and they turned around and I froze.

"Oh hi Melanie."

"Hi Jessica." I haven't seen her since Bruno almost died.

"I was just talking to Cindia I didn't know you guys come here."

"Oh umm Peter and Eric gave us this trip."

"Oh that's sweet of them."

"Mommy I'm tired."

"Well of course you are you've been running around all day." I bent down to pick her up and she rested her head on my shoulder and her curly hair got in my face. I laughed and pushed her hair back.

"Oh my gosh is this your daughter?"

"Yea this is Talia."

"Wow she's so beautiful! Hi sweetie." Jessica reached for her but Talia buried her head in my neck.
