A Different Way To Finding Each Other

Shared Costumes

"Daddy. We know what we want to be for Halloween," the triplets replied as they had their Wednesday dinner night out and he would take them back home.

"You do? What?" he asked.

"Well we aren't sure. But we do want to be the same thing this year," they said as the waitress came to take their orders and Robert and the triplets each picked something different.

"The Three Musketeers!" Caleb replied as Callum smiled wide. Callie had a frown.

"No way!" Callie replied. "The Three Musketeers have to be all boys."

"You could pass for one!" Caleb said as tears pooled in Callie's eyes.

"I'm not a boy!" she cried out.

"Caleb Leonard!" Robert warned as he kept his laugh at bay. "You three can't be The Three Musketeers."

"Then what can we be?" Callum asked.

"Maybe something cute?" Callie suggested. 

"EW Gross. Cute?" the two boys asked. "We aren't girls."

"You can say that again," Callie replied in a huge grin. Robert was thinking as his mind went to when he, Lena and Jackson Owens were five and how they used to dress up as Thing 1, Thing 2 and Thing 3 all the way till they were nine years old.

"What is that supposed to mean?" the two boys asked.

"You two don't have vaginas."

His eyes lit up and he would go see his mom  and ask if she still had the old costumes for the triplets. He then decided just to call her.

"Hi baby. What's going on?"

"Do you by chance still have mine, Lena and Jackson's old Thing 1, Thing 2 and Thing 3 costumes?"

"I do. Why?" she asked.

"The triplets want to dress up as the same thing and I remembered me, Lena and Jackson's old costumes."

"I just got them dry cleaned a week ago, but the old shoes and hair pieces are no longer good to wear."

"Don't worry I can order them on Amazon," he replied. "I will bring the triplets by later to see if they fit."

"I will be waiting," she replied. Robert ordered three pairs of the shoes and hairpieces and smiled as he put a rush on it and would arrive in a few hours.

The dinner came and Robert told the kids he might have found the best costumes for them and they were excited. "What is it daddy?" they asked.

"After dinner and we will go see nana," he added. "But first we need to stop at home after dinner and before we go to her home."

The triplets nodded. "Can we get dessert too?"

"Of course. How can we have a meal without dessert?"

"Can we go to Freddy's Frozen Custard and Steakburgers?" Callie asked.

"Custard it is," he replied. "It's been awhile."

The dinner came and the kids ate and after an hour or two they were done and Robert paid the bill as he took the kids to get washed up.

They soon headed to get the Frozen custard and were shocked to see their mommy there. "MOMMY!"

"MY BABY TRIPLETS!" Stef replied as she hugged them. She was with Armando and Mike.

"Hi Stef, Armando and Mike," Robert replied as he ordered four large frozen custards. He got the swirl kind and the kids were shocked and Stef didn't mind. Lena would've.
