Last Day of paradise

Lena's: POV
We were enjoying our day of paradise l actually have to say l really enjoyed myself these last two days. It helped me relax some, l can't say l'm looking forward to Christine's visit next weekend. I just need to survive next week without the added bullshit, l already received a voicemail from my Godmother's Alexandra and Olivia
Notifying me they're be coming out for a visit
I always forward their conversations. They gave me a lot of helpful advice growing up, l can't wait for Stef to meet and the kids to meet the two amazing women in my life
Christine and Alex aren't as close as l am with her
Olivia is straight forward and doesn't have a problem with speaking her mind when it comes to defending some one she loves. She can make a grown man cry at times
Alex and Olivia are total opposite from each other but their truly each other's soulmate's. They both been together since I was sixteen years old, the last time I heard from them was when Olivia called me and said Alex was expecting their first child together. I knew they always wanted children, especially with the kind of work Alex does, she's a college professor at NYU university l believe she's teaching law and ethics. Olivia's a child psychologist for NYPD in Manhattan new York, they were very supportive of me when I reveal to them l was a lesbian
My mother acted like it was the worst thing in the world
I know Christine and I need to sit down and have a serious talk, we've always been close growing up
So many years have passed l have always been the mature And smart courageous one. Where ins Christine has been the peace maker of the family and of course Nadia was our baby sister, who always liked sewing and making her own clothes. I'm not sure what she does for a living
Stef and I are enjoying breakfast out on the deck of the boat, our flight leaves at 3pm. Stef promised we would come back again, l just don't know when yet. My birthday is coming up two months. She always surprises me with the best gifts, last year Stef brought me a brand new car
A 2021 sliver Lexus SUV. to say l was shocked was a understatement, my present to her was carrying Francesca and Xander for eight in half months, Frankie was named after Stef's father Frank. He loss his battle to liver cancer two years later after our daughter and son were born, it hit her hard cause she was with him
When he took his last breath. Since my mother's passing
I haven't had a chance to properly grieve the way I wanted, yeah I cried some. But we didn't get a opportunity to buried the hatchet before she died
I guess that's why I didn't stick around in Savannah Georgia. to many painful memories of my past
I tried to buried deep down inside of me. I know l'm hiding how l truly feel, Stef knows all about how controlling my mother was God rest her soul. I hope Christine doesn't go looking for our biological father
Apparently we weren't on his adgeda to be there for our mom when she gave birth to all of us, according to the people who lived in Georgia was married some woman
I can only shook my head. Lena did you hear what I said
Stef asks me, l'm sorry l must've zone out what was your question baby. I asked Stef, l was asking were you looking forward to your sister's visit l can't wait till she tells me all your secret crushes you had in school Stef says, we'll that's high than likely that's gonna happen cause we went to a Christian private school so we weren't allowed to date
Let's just say mother had us on a tight leash coming up
It was go to school come home do homework go to have bible study Tuesdays and Thursdays evenings at the Church, Lena explains talk about being strict
I don't want us to do that to Francesca and Xander
Stef said. Lena agreed with Stef's statement
