Aaron POV
I come home excited. Who wouldn't be excited for their family to be there to visit them? I hug Roni first. Not going to lie, I miss her a ton. I feel like our relationship is getting strained and both of us are trying to ignore it. This is not the first time this has happened and talking it out can fix it.
We all sit in the couch and relax for awhile before we go out again. Everyone seems to be tired. They have been out all day, so they must be tired. Instead of taking a nap, I text Roni.
Can we talk?
I've been wanting to
We meet in the room that we're staying in. I sit on the bed and she sits beside me.
"What's going on?" I ask "Why are we so tense?"
"I don't know. Somehow we kind of got taking over by work, life, and everything else. We both feel like just a hug and a kiss is going to fix it all. It's not going to work." She points out.
"I'm so sorry. I know that my work has been a big set back and I never meant it to go this far and make a big set back. I knew this would happen and I hated it."
"Don't be sorry. I'm so glad that you're doing what you like. It's not al your fault either. I've been busy too. I hate that it feels like we're enabling each other."
"I'm so glad that you got to get all of your dream done. It's amazing and your amazing for achieving that. I congratulate you and I'm so proud of you. I think if we both make an effort to take time in our schedule for each other and family we'll be fine. We just have to wait this period of filming out. It'll be over soon and as soon as this movies in the editing processes, we're going on a vacation." I reassure.
"That would be the best thing ever" She tells me. We do our hand shake and hug it out. We end up snuggling and watching some Netflix and falling asleep under the blankets.
We wake up and we all get some dinner and stop at the popular ice cream store. Roni and I are closer. We would be holding hands, but Vi and Vinny are in between us holding hands and swinging between our hands. That's fine with us because it's like we're holding hands, but better. I'm also excited because tomorrow is Saturday, that means that I have tomorrow off and I can spend the whole day with everyone.
Saturday comes just like I wanted it to. I don't know what I was expecting but, with all these things that keep getting thrown at us, anything could happen. Everyone sleeps in, including me. We're all tired from the days before. No one wants to be jet lagged or anything, so sleeping in is not a bad thing.
Instead of sleeping with everyone else, Vi and Vinny want to sleep with us. This wouldn't be a problem, except for the fact that we know how much Vinny squirms. It is almost impossible to get him to lay, sit, or do anything that involves him being still. We don't know if it just because he's so young, or if it's something else but either way, it's a hassle. To prevent this when he crawls in bed that night, I wrap my arm around him to prevent that. I make sure that it's not to tight so that he can't move but it's tight enough so that he's not laying halfway off of the bed by the time we wake up. I can definitely tell when he wakes up.
After Vinny's squirm session we get ready for our adventures for the day. Today it's a ferry ride to the Statue of Liberty. I see this all the time in movies but I've never done it. It looks really exciting though.
We take a trip down to the dock where the ferry tour is. We hope on it as soon as the ferry arrives. Most of us are excited, but Adrian is a little scared. It is a little scary to get on a boat for the first time, especially if you don't know how it's going to be and if you're going to be sea sick or whatever.
After some talking from the tour guide, we take off. The boat goes fast at first and slows down so that we can wave at another boat that passes. They give us a little bit of info about the history of New York and the area that we're in. Finally we pass the Statue of Liberty. I wonder what it would be like to be at the top of that. I ask myself that as I stare at it in marvel. We even get to go to Ellis Island. It's where the immigrants stayed when they come here. It looked like it wasn't the best situation to stay in, but it is cool to walk on history.
As we get of the ferry and walk back to the car I wrap my hand around Roni. Each of us hold hold hands with the twins. This day was great and our talk made everything better. As I look at her I count down all the days until this whole filming process is over and we can get away together. The anticipation makes me realize that this is going to work out just fine. Having an amazing family and an amazing person by my side makes me know that this is going to work. It might not run smoothly, but it'll work. We're going to work and we're going to make this work. I'm ready to do whatever it takes to make it work and I know that she will to. It feels great to have that. Maybe we really are the dream team like Paul said.
I just got back from Washington and I'm in bed sick so that's why this chapter is super duper late. I hate doing this to you guys.
