Lost Love [H.S]

forty eight

20 April 2021

"You gotta look at me, baby."

I raise my brows amused as Capri looks everywhere other than Addie, her wide, little eyes darting around our surroundings like she can't focus on one thing for more than one second.

The absolute last thing Capri wants to do is smile for a picture.

"Angel, smile for Mumma and I'll buy you some candy floss." I bribe her.

It gains Capri's attention and she quickly looks at Addie, smiling brightly like her sister beside her for the picture Addie was trying to take of the girls in front of the Disney Castle.

Addie is literally the most adorable person ever, she's trying not to act like she isn't having the best day of her life here but looking closely, I think she's more excited than the girls combined.

I had a show last night here in Orlando and because there's a free day today before we travel tonight, I thought it was the perfect opportunity to get my three girls out to Disney for the first time.

None of them have ever been and watching how excited they get is becoming my favourite thing in the world, they're all so precious.

"Alright... perfect." Addie snaps a few pictures, turning her phone to me to show off the images she took and I nod with a smile on my face. "We'll have to come back when baby Pear is older." She speaks quietly, more to herself as she grabs Posie's hand and I lift Capri up.

"Yeah? We can come back every year, make it a tradition." I go the whole mile, wanting to give her anything she wants in life and she giggles softly as she entwines our fingers.

Her head turns to me, "every April we come to Florida?" She asks, her brows slightly raised as I lead her towards a store to buy Capri her cotton candy.

"Mhm," I hum. "Every summer, for a week, we go to Italy." I add in, it's a no brainer for me that Addie, the girls and our unborn child should spend time there.

Addie and Posie are Italian. I think it'll be nice for them to visit their past, albeit sad, it's still their story and their family is there.

"A week in Italy sounds lovely... Capri's never been before." She looks over at our little girl on my hip as I hold the shop door open and she ducks under my arm to walk inside.

"We'll take her soon, don't worry." I reassure, knowing I've already planned for our trip to Italy this year and she is yet to know. I look at Capri on my hip, "let's go find you some candy floss."

Addie and I go in different directions, the girls wanting to look at different things. I place Capri down and let her look around, inspecting the things she can choose from around her.

Addie thinks I'm a little too lenient with saying yes to the girls so instead of us being in charge of what they get, we gave them a certain amount of money each to spend today.
