homecoming

the house to ourselves

Lena's: POV
No sonner then we arrived at home and we walked through the front door. Clothes were been toss over the living room floor, l pushed Stef on the couch and kissed her places l thought about on the drive home. I marked one side of her neck, l hope she won't be mad at me in the morning. I tried not to think about the fact Christine will be here tomorrow afternoon, l couldn't help to make love to my wife and ignore the thoughts that were rolling around in my mind. I focused my attention on Stef and how we were about to bring another life into the world again. I pray this insemination took successfully l can't happen to hear Stef moaning my name loudly, Olivia and Alex were still in town. Christine wouldn't dare to disrespect them, l continue to love on my love for a few more hours. Once we were finished l pulled the blanket that was laying on the back of the couch and covered us up and we both drifted off to sleep. I woke up a few hours later, and went to take a shower and put on some comfortable clothes on, l knew we should have ate something. After all the calories we burned up during our extracurricular activities, l know that I have get the house straightened up before Christine comes tomorrow. Luckily I don't have to worry about going to the grocery store. I went a couple days ago, there's laundry that has to be washed, the whole downstairs needs vacuuming and the bathrooms need to clean. The kids share one together
Xander always leaves it a mess by leaving socks or little stuff behind, Francesca is neat freak. Who likes to have everything in order, the only problem we have with her
is she's super competitive she is when it comes to games sports. She took after Stef in that department, we always encouraged them to try their best. Xander is getting better
At his studies, he has a one on one tutor who works with him. Sometimes Xander gets a little frustrated when doesn't get something right, this whole Christine thing has me on edge. I know there's no reason l should be worried
Nadia on the other hand is my baby sister who was the quiet one out the two of us. I head back downstairs
to make us some dinner, l look in the refrigerator and take in all the options that's in front of me. Then l looked in the freezer, nothing seems to catch my attention so I decided on Chinese takeout, l search for the menu in the kitchen drawer. Babe what are you doing l hear Stef say in a groggy voice, baby l'm looking for the takeout menus
Lena replied. I know your concern about how this visit with your sister is going turn out tomorrow, you need to relax. Besides Alex and Olivia will be here as well me Francesca and Xander, Stef states. Lena sometimes forgets how transparent her wife is, love l know how my sister Christine is. She and I use to be close when we were growing up, but l don't know since we haven't seen each other in years. Now my baby sister Nadia was always the sensitive one out the two of us, Christine hasn't mentioned if Nadia was coming on this visit so time will tell if she would be tagging along with her. Plus Christine said my mother left something in her will for me my sister told me the last time we spoke over the phone, l don't know what could my mother would left because the last time we had an interaction with each other when I reveal my sexuality and she told me that I was no longer her daughter and for to pack my things and leave her home immediately. Luckily l had money saved us. That's when everything changed in our relationship it was the summer l came back home from spending time with Olivia and Alex
I never heard my mother speak so cold towards me
She called me every name in the book and told me I was going to burn in hell for my wicked deeds. She said it right in front of my sisters, that was one of the most humiliated experiences of my life. Christine tried to get me to calm down, cause our shouting match escalated quickly where she slapped me across the face because I stood up to her, mother didn't expect me to talk back to her. Usually I would have just stood there and took it but something inside of me broke loose it was like l find my inner strength. For the first time l had a voice to express myself in ways she couldn't understand and my sisters knew l wasn't gonna back down for nothing, Lena explained. Stef never fully understood what her wife endure back then, this was the first time Lena spoke out about the things she Suffered back then. Now that I look back on everything, l was able to silent that voice in the back of my mind. Lena Stated, sweetheart you have to let it go, l know things have been difficult for you. If you don't open Pandora's box it will eat you alive Stef says to Lena.
