Lena's: POV
We all just pulled up to Angelique's bridal boutique. Bentley came around and opened up the car door so the three of us could get out, she said for me to call him when we were ready to head back to the house
I hated to leave Stef's warm embrace
Ever since last night Nadia barely said too words to me and l was content with that
After aunt Alex gave her a stern talking to
She straightened up right quick. Lena and everybody inside Angelique's establishment. We were greeted by her other assistant whom l've never met before
We introduced herself as Morgan, she offered us some light refreshments which mainly was a cheese &cracker and a fruit platter. To drink was champagne mixed with orange juice, of course Nadia helped herself to a glass. Alex and l drunk bottled water, Morgan went to tell  Angelique we were here. Alex went to look at the dresses
Leaving her nieces alone, while they were waiting Lena was responding to a text on her phone. Nadia was talking on her phone
Being it was Christmas Eve morning, Angelique was open for high paying customers, Lena daring sorry that l had you wait for so long l finished doing the alterations on your wedding dress just the other Day. Morgan is putting it in a black garment bag the older woman says to me
I stood up from the couch and walked to Ms. Angelique, thank you so much
I really appreciated you taking time out of your schedule Lena shakes the woman's hand, Morgan comes out the storage room carrying the garment bag across her arm
Alex heading to the dressing room to try on a powder blue dress she liked.

Back at the house
Stef's: POV
While Lena Alex and Nadia were out
I was getting to know Olivia Lena's other aunt. We were in the den with the kids who were doing a puzzle, Olivia was easy to talk to. She told me stories about Lena as a teenager, how she use to come to Manhattan during the summer time
Lena is very special to my wife and l we always thought of her like a daughter
You shouldn't worry so much about Nadia
She's like that towards everybody. I know Elizabeth and didn't raised to be disrespected others. I think something deep is going on with her but that doesn't give the right to treat you that way l'm sure her mother had some few choices words with her last night Olivia says to me, my parents raised me to have tough skin so l don't take the things Nadia said to her heart. Lena was very hurt by the things Nadia utter last night during dinner. I know l haven't been in this family long but l won't be made out to be Nadia's punching bag, l do have feelings Stef tries not lose her temper
Olivia totally understands how the younger
Felt. She'll have to talk to her niece by her behavior, mommy when's mama coming back Hannah asks. Love bug remember she went shopping with cousin Lena and Nadia
I promise she's coming back Olivia said
Okay mommy l love you Hannah throws her arms around Oliva's neck and hugs her tight, Stef couldn't wait for her and Lena have a baby together. Elizabeth came into the den and informed her sister in law and so to be daughter May prepared lunch, Hannah and brother begin putting the puzzles back in the box. Both children got off the floor held Oliva's hands, Stef followed right behind them. May whipped up a nice spread which was subs and soup
Everyone took their seats at the table
Stef put the napkin on her lap, and began eating the vegetable soup they had corn potatoes carrots and green beans.
