"Mom, I need help zippering this." Riley called out from the dressing room.
"One second sweetie." Emily smiled as Mimi zippered her dress.
"You look beautiful Emily." Mimi smiled looking over at her.
"Really? I mean, I want to look perfect when me and Roger get married." she smiled looking over at her.
"Really Em. You look beautiful. You're gonna knock Roger's socks off." she smiled looking at her.
"I want him to still be able to say I do." she laughed turning around to face her.
"Don't worry, he will." she laughed looking over at her.
"OK." she smiled looking over at her.
"Mom, help." Riley called out again from the dressing room next to Emily's.
"I'm sorry sweetie. I'm coming." she said leaving her dressing room and going into Riley's. "Oh my... sweetie, you look so beautiful." she smiled looking down at Riley.
"Really?" she asked looking up at her.
"Yes sweetie. You look so beautiful." she said looking down at her with tears in her eyes.
"What's the matter mom?" she asked looking up at her.
"I'm sorry Riley, you just look so grown up." she smiled looking down at her.
"Thanks mom." she smiled as Kylie came out of her dressing room.
"How do I look?" she smiled looking over at them.
"You look just like your mother sweetie." Mimi smiled looking over at her.
"You do Kylie. Your mother is so proud of what a beautiful young woman you turned out to be." Emily smiled with her arm around Riley.
"Thanks mom." she smiled looking up at her. "Wow, you look so amazing." she smiled.
"You think so? I want it to be perfect." she smiled wiping her eyes almost forgetting she was wearing a wedding gown.
"You really do mom. Daddy's gonna love it." Riley smiled looking up at her.
"Thank you sweetie." she smiled kissing her head.
"OK girls, let's get out of these dresses and go for milkshakes." Mimi smiled watching Emily with the girls. She couldn't help but feel good that the girls had everything Keira always wanted them to have. When Keira was dying, she made Mimi promise to urge Roger to move on, but to make sure it was with a woman who loved the girls too. Not only did Emily love the girls, she made them her own. Mimi knew that Emily was exactly who Keira wanted for her family. She often wondered if Keira didn't send Emily to them herself.
"Yay, milkshakes. Mom, can I get a chocolate one?" Riley asked looking upat her excitedly.
"Of course sweetie." she smiled kissing her head again before unzipping her dress and going into her own dressing room to change out of hers. "Mimi, can I ask you something?" she asked quietly so the girls couldn't hear her.
"Yes, Keira is happy for you." Mimi smiled unzipped her dress for her.
"Are you sure?" she asked looking over at her.
"Keira was my best friend Emily. Trust me. You are exactly who she wanted for her family." she smiled looking over at here.
"Thanks Mimi." Emily smiled leaning in to hug her.
"Thank you for loving my best friend's family sweetie." Mimi smiled looking over at her.
"Thank Keira for giving them to me. And not letting me give up on them." she smiled looking over at her.
"So, Kylie tells me you found a dress." Roger smiled as Emily got into bed.
"Yeah, I can't wait for you to see it." she smiled leaning over to him.
"I can't wait to see it either." he smiled taking her into his arms.
"You should have seen the girls in their dresses Baby. They looked so grown up. Kylie looked just like Keira." she smiled looking over at him before laying her head on his chest.
"She was always the one who looked the most like Keira." he said leaning down to kiss her head.
"Mimi said that Keira is happy for us." she said looking up at him.
"I'm sure she is." he smiled before they fell asleep.
"Mom, I already told you, me and Mimi are not moving to Scarsdale... because I have friends here and I'm not leaving them... Roger and Emily do not want to move the girls to Scarsdale... because this is their home and it's mine and Mimi's too... I'm not talking about this anymore... Goodbye mom." Mark said before hanging up the phone. "You wonder why I screen her calls. That's why." he said looking over at Kylie.
"You're mean Uncle Mark." Kylie said looking over at him.
"Yeah, you deal with her and tell me I'm mean. You're lucky. Your parents are cool." he said drinking his coffee.
"Uncle Mark, why does your mom want you to move to Scarsdale? Doesn't she think Aunt Mimi can take care of you?" Kylie asked looking up at him.
"No sweetie, she knows Aunt Mimi can take care of me. She's just afraid I'm not gonna be able to take care of her when she gets sick." he told her quietly looking over at her.
"But you helped my dad take care of my mom, right?" she asked walking over to him.
"Yeah sweetie, I did. But that was different." he said looking up at her.
"How? You loved my mom, right?" she asked sitting next to him.
"Of course I loved your mom. She was the greatest thing that ever happened to your dad, but she wasn't my wife like Aunt Mimi is. It's different when it's someone you're married to, you know?" he said looking over at her.
"Like it was different with Aunt Angel?" she asked looking up at him.
"Yeah sweetie. Like that." he said looking down.
"It'll be OK Uncle Mark. We'll take care of you." Kylie smiled looking up at him.
"I know kiddo. I love you." he smiled hugging her.
"I love you too Uncle Mark." she smiled as he leaned down to kiss her head.
"Grandma, are you coming to Emily and dad's wedding?" Kylie asked as she spoke on the phone with Mrs. Jenkins.
"Of course sweetie. I wouldn't miss it. Why do you ask?" she asked sitting on her couch in Florida.
"I don't know. I just didn't think you'd come." she said sitting on her bed.
"Sweetie, you, your sister and your dad are still my family. I wanna be there to welcome Emily into it. It's what your mom would have wanted." she smiled looking around her apartment at the pictures of Roger, Keira and the girls.
"Emily's really great grandma. You're gonna love her." Kylie smiled looking at the pictures of her and Emily that were in her room.
"I'm sure I will sweetie." she smiled leaning back on the couch.
"Um... I gotta go grams. Dad and Emily'll be home any minute to pick me up for dinner. I'll see you at thte wedding next week, OK?" she smiled looking around.
"OK sweetie. Have fun. I love you." she smiled looking at the school picture of Kylie hanging on the wall.
"I love you too grams. Bye." she smiled before hanging up the phone.
"Kylie, are you ready? Mom and dad are gonna be home soon." Riley asked going into Kylie's room.
"Yeah kiddo, I'm ready." she smiled looking up at her.
"Kylie, do you think when mom and dad get married we're gonna move out of the loft?" she asked looking up at her.
"No kiddo, I don't think we will. Mom and dad would never take us away from Aunt Mimi and Uncle Mark." she said looking down at her.
"Good because, I don't want to leave Aunt Mimi and Uncle Mark." she said looking up at her hearing the loft door open.
"Come on kiddo. Mom and dad are home." she smiled before leaving the bedroom.
"Are our girls ready to go for dinner?" Emily called out seeing Kylie come out of her room.
"Yeah mom, we're ready." she smiled as she ansd Riley went towards them.
