***Time Stamp: Ten Years Later***
***Gerard***"G.Pop catch me!"
Gerard looked up just in time to be met with an armful of his granddaughter.
"Whoa, easy their Little G."
"Giselle Autumn Iero Way!"
"Uh oh..."
A tired looking Arianna comes bustling into the Study, reprimanding Giselle. She hid behind Gerard like she always did. Gerard had to stifle a giggle.
"Easy Ari, I am fine."
"That's not the point Gee. She needs to understand that you are getting on, and can't be jumped upon like that!"
"Shhh, easy Ari. I got her."
From behind Arianna comes Anthony. He crouches down to Giselle's level and smiles at her.
"Hey Little G. How about we leave G.Pop to his work, and go get a snack?"
"Okay Daddy Frankie."
As usual, Gerard was impressed that Anthony could get his daughter to do just about anything. When Anthony stood up he planted a kiss on his cheek.
"Thanks Frankie."
"Anytime mom."
Gerard watched as the two left the room then he turned to Arianna.
"You have to ease up on the girl, she is at that age where..."
Gerard's back twinged a little. He groaned in the quietest possible way, and had to sit down. Arianna came up to hand him his cane.
"See? That is what I am talking about. You are too old to be dealing with her rambunctiousness."
"Ari, I am only fifty one, and..."
"And that is four years less than when Jimmy passed on."
"Okay okay, I will talk with her about being more careful around me."
"Good."
Ari leaned down and kissed Gerard on the forehead then left the room. Gerard sunk back into the sofa and let out a breath he was holding.
"She reminds me of Jamia when she was determined."
Gerard looked up and saw Michael then smiled softly.
"Yeah, I think some rubbed off."
Michael walked in and sat down next to Gerard. Gerard put his head on his shoulder and sighed.
"Am I really that old?"
"Well, I know some days I feel forty eight, especially when my son runs me ragged."
"Yeah, well who told you to go have a child at forty?"
"Who knew that the doctor could perform such a miracle for Alicia."
Gerard laughed at the notion. Michael had practically raised the boys, along with Jamia and himself. Then his Grandniece arrived, so he was fully ready to receive his own bundle. Gerard sighed. So much had happened in the last thirty years, and all of it was amazing. He chuckled and then started to cough. It got out of control quickly and Michael was up, grabbing water and his pills.
"Here Gee, let me."
Michael slowly fed Gerard the pills then small sips of water to take them down. Gerard swallowed dutifully, and smiled up at his younger brother.
