Moms In Leather Aprons

Goodbye, Cherry.

Today is one of the saddest days that ThistleHouse could face. Although the knew addition to the family brought a lot of happiness and laughter  as the twins said their first words: ''Momma'' for Jason and ''Light'' for Victoria, another member passed away. It was hard on the sibling especially for Victoria because even with only five years old she felt a huge connection to her Nana who she was named after. But Cheryl was the one having the hardest time. She had just put her grandma in front of the Tv to watch her usual old shows when she hears a loud thud and runs to where the sound came from, only to find the elder Blossom on the floor, not breathing. Cheryl screamed and dropped to the floor, shaking her Nana awake but she wouldn't respond. Toni soon came downstairs, gladly the twins were having a sleepover at Bughead's so they didn't have to witness what had happened. Toni was pretty much in shock. All the memories from when the Blossom helped save Cheryl, the one person from her family that truly cared for her besides her dead brother, was laying on the floor, paler than she already was, colder than she usually felt. 

A heart attack. Something that could not be stopped on a lady that was almost 90 years old. It could not have been prevented, it could not have been stopped. That was what the doctors and Toni reminded Cheryl of, but she still felt guilty. Maybe if she had paid more attention with the food she was given or not let her stay past her bedtime so often. Maybe living with her for so long was a mistake and was what got her killed. Jason didn't really understand what was going on. After him and his sister got home from their sleepover momma and mommy called them to the living room and explained that their Nana had a little accident, and because of that she was in heaven, sleeping for a long long time. Even if the two adults tried to sugar coat it as much as possible kids these days where too up to date to what death and life really is. Victoria quickly picked up on what was going on but only when she started to cry was when Jason understood what had happened. Their moms hugged them tight, and took them for ice cream to lighten up the mood a bit, though deep down Cheryl was in so much pain.

The day of the funeral was the hardest. A lot of people were there more to show support to their friends than because they knew Roseanne Blossom. 

The Blossom-Topaz twins played with the Jones' kid, while now teen Dagwood and Juniper looked after them. Cheryl was actually sitting alone by her grandmother's lifeless body, laid on the coffin, the interior was velvet red and the outside was a beautiful shade of dark wood. It was clearly very expensive but only the best of the best could serve justice to the wonderful woman laying there. Tears ran through the now eldest Blossom of ThistleHouse. A big fuss was was going on outside, Toni's voice being the loudest so Cheryl hurried outside only to find something that made the day even worse.

''Mother?'' Cheryl asked, her eyes wide open as no other than Penelope fucking Blossom stood there, a creepy smile across her face.

''Well, well Cheryl. Aren't you looking like a fat pig. Clearly I am missed here.'' Penelope stated as if it was the most truthful thing. It was a fact that Cheryl was still yet to lose those pregnant extra pounds, with two energetic twins it is kinda hard to keep yourself on the line, but it definetly didn't need a comment.

''You need to leave. Now. This is a family and friends only event.'' SweetPea puts himself between Penelope and Toni who are standing dangerously close.

''I am family. And this is my property, and that dead piece of trash has my money, and I am going to go claim it.'' Penelopenis starts to walk forward but Fangs and Jughead join SweetPea at blocking the door. 

''Toni where are the twins?'' Cheryl worriedly asked. If Penelope knew about them god knows whatelse she would make up. Toni shook her head, telling Cheryl she didn't know so she walked away and went to find them on the background of the house playing, unaware of what was happening. She hugged them tight and carried them to their bedrooms where they would be safe.
