A Family Affair

twentyone // pick me! pick me!

"I'm so excited" Kylie snuggled up next to me as a bowl full of paper filled destinations that get to depict our annual family summer vacay

I put my fist in the air "Take me anywhere I'm legal to drink"

The whole family was sat around Lovey's living room. No boyfriends or friends or baby daddies (disregarding my dad and Scott because they've been ACTIVE in this family for decades) because we get to vote out of all three that gets picked out of the giant crystal ball and then we can invite the outside men who've been in our lives for quite some time

"Where the fuck is mom?" mom, the one with extreme OCD and badass anger issues that I admit I get from her, tired of waiting but I'm sure we all feel the same way

"I know, we've been like waiting forever" Kylie settled her head on my arm and snooped on my phone as I scrolled through it

"What is she doing? She called us here and the host isn't even present" Kourtney pitched in

"Is she even here?" Kim sat next to mom as she examined her outfit, whispering that her outfit was outstandingly one of her favorites

"Oh my god- MOM!" Kenny yelled from the corner of the room as Rob walked in with a hand on his chest acting as if we were waiting on him, I love this family and our foolish jokes

"I saw her pull up in the driveway" Rob added, laughing because she really had us come here when she wasn't even here to begin with, ah that's Lovey Kris Jenner for you!

We didn't even get to choose, Lovey decided we needed to have a family dinner, in the middle of the week and then we can choose after, where our fate will take us. Unexpected family dinners don't happen all too often, we'll either have a few to one siblings (mom's) over  at whoever's house but I guess Lovey saw the chance and wanted it complete. Scott said we should've done it on Sunday because that was the designated and scheduled time we'd all see each other for most of the day

"Alright the oldest, the middle and the youngest get to choose" Lovey excitedly smiled, her cheekbones becoming more prominent while she tried to keep her alcohol from spilling over as she made her way toward the bowl

"Wait but don't open it yet, we have to do it all together" Lovey once insisted and did the math in her head and pointed at uncle Scott who looked terrified and confused at the the finger being pointed at him

I then picked up a piece of paper since Mason was out on a sleepover, I wanted to choose anyways! Sorry Mason Dash, I care about the destination more than you...

"I got Switzerland"

"Italy"

"Mauritius"

With those three countries I already knew what order I want them in, Switzerland, Mauritius and Italy all because we ALWAYS go to Italy. We were there for Ky's 22nd, for retail therapy, fashion show. Italy is like an overused pair of shoes, still such a wonderful and beautiful country, I've just been there one too many times.

"Mauritius? What the hell is that?" Scott pulled out his phone and googled

"It's a small Island country, literally just surrounded by a whole body of water" My geography knowledge is astounding, I'm acing every class and it shows

"I didn't even know that was a country" Dad looked at uncle Scott and everybody else, it's as if I was the only person who knew of this pretty country, where boats are common to own- not where here it's for the people with the big banks who own boats.
