After a few hours, we were all in the living room, watching a movie.

"Where are Danielle and Carlos? " Naomi asked William the Butler. "Please go fetch them right away. "

"Okay, ma'am! " He went upstairs and opened the door to their room.

Soon they were running downstairs. Larisa and Theo hadn't met them yet. When they came downstairs, Luke paused the TV and turned on the lights "hey guys! "

They jumped onto Luke's lap and started laughing.

"Hi! " Larisa walked up to the girl. She's the brave one. "I'm Larisa. What's your name? "

"I'm Danielle. This is Carlos. I'm seven but he's six. " Danielle explained.

"I'm seven and my brother Thomas is seven too. We are twins! " Larisa explained.

"That's cool! I wish we were were twins!" Danielle turned to face Naomi and Luke "mom, dad, why weren't me and Carlos born as twins? "

Naomi shrugged and snuggled in closer to Luke.

Danielle grabbed Carlos's hand. "Come on! " She dragged him off the chair and came onto the floor with Larisa and Thomas.

Thomas used his inhaler. He is always so timid.

"That's so cool! I have an inhaler too!" Carlos grabbed his inhaler from his pocket and used it happily. The two guys wondered into the aquarium. While the two girls sat behind the couch chatting like there would be no tomorrow.

After the movie, Naomi told the cook, Chef Andrew to make us a feast of chicken, fish, rice, sauces, salads and exotic fruits.

"It won't take any time at all! Chef Andrew has his ways of making his food as speedy as Speedy Gonzalez! " Naomi joked. We (the adults) headed upstairs together.

We went to the rooms an Luke showed us his shell collection. Only Theo stayed around to listen. Naomi took me to the bed and reached under it. She pulled out her wedding photo book and dusted it off.

The dust that flew off the cover was enough to make a million dust mites. The huge ones. The ones the size of a dinosaur and a whale and ab elephant murder together (that's if dust mites are made out of dust).

When we opened it, the first picture I saw was a picture of me and Naomi. This was when we just stopped hating each other.

The next picture was of her and Luke with me and Theo. The next picture was of Felicity smiling at the camera and pouring her punch on a random person.

The next picture was of my dad kissing Felicity. At that one, I screamed "Ew!" and flipped the page. Naomi burst out laughing.

The page I had flipped to was Theo kissing my baby bump. The next one was of a crowd of random single ladies trying to get the bouquet of flowers.

The next picture was the random single lady who got the bouquet and was kissing it. The next picture was of her grabbing a guy by his tie and holding the bouquet in her other hand.

The next thing I knew...

Ring ring ring!

Ring ring ring!

My phone was ringing. When I checked the caller ID, I saw it was Felicity.

"Excuse me." I got off the bed and made my way into the bathroom. I answered the call. "Hello? "

"My bodacious daughter, how are you? " She chirped into the phone.

"Im good! " I said "how are you? "

"Ummm... Have you heard from Michelle and Micheal? " Felicity nervously asked me.

"No. I'm at the Bahamas. I'm visiting Luke and Naomi, remember? " I asked her.

"Oh. I forgot. " I heard her slapping her forehead.

"Why do you ask? " I asked her.

"Micheal and Michelle... They're.... Ummm.... They're teenagers now so they felt rebellious and... They said they were gonna run to your place." Felicity explained to me.

"What? " I shouted

"I know. I know. Your dad is super angry too." Felicity said. "Later, hun! "

"Bye, mom. " I ended the call. When I turned around, Naomi had already put the album back under the bed.

"Let's go downstairs.  Chef Andrew just texted me.  The food is ready." Naomi said "Luke,  please go get the boys from the aquarium."

"Yes,  ma'am! " He saluted and then left the room.  Theo,  Naomi and I walked out of the room after him.  In the living room,  Larisa and Danielle were still there. 

"Come on,  girls.  Let's head to the dining room." Naomi lead us to the dining room where the food was already laid. Naomi Sat beside me.  Luke returned with the boys and sat beside Naomi and Theo sat beside me. 

On the other side of the table,  Larisa sat beside Danielle and Thomas sat beside Larisa.  Carlos sat beside Thomas. 

When dinner began,  everyone was chatting with one another.  Since the guys we're sitting separately,  they were using their phones to chat with each other. 

At different intervals,  Naomi and I would snatch our husbands phones and make sure they weren't talking about us. 

Luke took a spoon of the rice and then suddenly,  huge red bumps started popping up on his body. 

"Argh! " He grabbed Naomi's arm and started gasping for breath.  "Na-Naomi... I..... Argh!  My heart! " He clutched his heart.  "I... Can't... Breathe.... "
