my summer romance

Mom back (I)

𝙈𝙊𝙈 𝘽𝘼𝘾𝙆 (I)
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>°×°<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Two weeks spent away from home and here in Hawaii. I miss mom no doubts but here has been so eventful I barely remember home. Where my life is, my bestie, Shelby ,my mom and my lovely boyfriend. Ha!

Lies

"Yes mom we miss you too" we as in me, sky and Ash say in unison. Here we are in the living room talking to mom on FaceTime which we synced to the living room tv and by we I mean Ashy poshy.

"Who's on the call?" Dad questions as he takes off his suit jacket walking into the living room.

"Oh. It's you . Hey Christina" dad says shyly , slightly scratching the back of his neck.

"Hey Morgan...you still got it huh?" Mom responds smiling beautifully.

We kids exchange looks sharing the same ear-to-ear grin . Clearly enjoying the show but decide to give them privacy. Ha! We are just going to hide in the kitchen and listen on their conversation from there.

"We'll leave you two to catch up" we dash away and into the kitchen. Sky pours us each a cup of lemonade with ice.

"I miss you so much Christina and I'm sorry you have to hear this through FaceTime and not me in person" dad's voice brings back our attention to eavesdropping.

"Me too Morg...I don't mind meeting up sometime" I see mom's blushing face from the kitchen.

"Are you guys thinking what I'm thinking?" I spin to face sky and Ash.

"We should make pancakes-we should buy a dog" Ash and Sky suggest respectively.

I shoot them a confused look and roll my eyes .

"No coco and twinkles...we should tots hook them up!" I take a sip from my cup.

"That's genius...I strongly believe we can get them back together" Sky chips in.

"Anything to get them together I guess" Ashy contributes.

"operation rejoining mom and dad is a GO!" We cheers to this plan and bump our cups into one other.

I still hear muffled talking from the living room.we walk back into the living room to see dad standing so close to the tv and mom's face still tomato red.

"Bye morg, call me. Bye cupcakes" she blows kisses to us.

"Bye!!!" We each yell before hanging up.

"Dad, you still like mom don't you?" Sky breaks the silence. We all look at dad waiting for him to answer.

"Is it that obvious?" Dad fiddles his fingers nervously.

"Then why did you divorce? Cause clearly she's still head over heels for you" I chip in.

"We used to disagree a lot that period" He defends . The look on his face clearly screaming REGRET!

"Let's get our mom and your wife back!"

"How guys?" Dad's vulnerable voice pierces deep in my soul.

"We'll set a romantic date for you guys here in Hawaii. You send your private jet to pick her up from New York.I mean what can be more romantic than having a private jet pick a lady up for her date in Hawaii?!!" I'm screaming now .

"Calm down tiger. I like the idea" Dad reassures me.

"Good we begin by noon...Dad you make a reservation at a restaurant, Sky call the airport where daddy's private jet is paeked and make plans for New York the day after tomorrow. I will handle outfits both mom's and dad's. Got it?" I ask sternly.

"Yes ma'am" the throw a salute.

We each get ready to execute our plan. I'm getting dressed to go to the mall with Ash . Ash is gonna help me with dad's gift for mom which he doesn't know about,yet.

The mall...

"Let's start with my favourite store for women" I pull Ash with me into the store where a middle aged woman welcomes us with a white smile.

We greet her too as we make our way into the store where another lady much younger than the first comes to attend to us.

"What would you little angels like?" Lydia (that's what her tag says)smiles down at Ash before looking forward to meet my eyes.

"We'd like an evening dress for our mom. She needs it for a date with our dad" I stated casually.

"Wait you're Sky or Jazz and you must be Ash. Morgan and Christina's kids, aren't you?" Her eyes light up as she stares at us .

I laugh at her uncertainty of which twin I am "I am jazz and yes we're their kids" I introduce us. "Ashy say hi" I shove him in the side .

" hi pretty lady" Ash winks at her almost taking her breath away.

"So that dress?" I bring up the topic again.

"Most definitely" she leads us farther into the store where there are couches and offers us sits.

She claps her hands and immediately, three teenage girls slightly older than me appears with different evening dresses in hangers.

This happened for a few minutes until we found the one. It was an off-shoulder sleeveless floor length dress with a long slit cut up to the knee on the front left side of the dress . The satin dress dipped into sequence.

We decided ask for shoes to go with it and Lydia presents the most beautiful strap sandals I've seen . Ash doesn't get it so I admire it all by myself. They were gold straps sandals with diamonds inserted into holes created for them. It blings like the rings found on the fingers of the Migos.

We walk up to the woman at the counter, we wraps up our stuff in a fancy bag . I offer to pay by P.O.S with dad's credit card he lent us .

"Now off to dad's favourite men store" Ash smirks as he pulls me into the store for grown ups.

As we walk into the store a young man hands over to us cups of lemonades. Fancy.

We didn't spend much time shopping for dad because we saw a mannequin daddy's size wearing the most beautiful complete set of suit in the history of suits. And at the shoe session we got help from my Jamaican friend who also is a part time employee there.

Story for another day.

We grab some food from the food court at the other side of the mall.

"Let's go home, kiddo!"
