Chapter Twenty-One: Lucas
I stared blankly at my parents, as they both were smiling. Alex and Caleb both looked absolutely petrified next to me.
"What do you mean you're getting divorced?" I asked, raising my eyebrows high.
"What did I say about interrupting me?" Mom wondered.
"Don't do it…" Caleb butted in.
Mom nodded and I kept quiet. It took them a while, before they explained what they were doing with themselves. After they had said they were getting divorced, I felt bad, as I was the one that started the argument earlier with mom about the fact.
"The reason we are getting divorced, is so we can let go of the marriage, that obviously didn't go well." Dad clarified, which made me raised my eyebrows.
"We talked this morning about it, and we agreed about it, making it easier for you. When we got to the wedding, your dad sprung the idea of getting remarried as a joke, and again, I liked the idea." Mom continued.
"We don't want you growing up with fighting parents, but we also don't want you growing up in two different homes. I've seen how Raj is about it, and although he seems okay, deep down, he's devastated." Dad mentioned. Aryan, Neysa and Kiara did have a hard time adjusting to the divorce of their parents three years ago.
"We talked all the way home, and just after, and we agreed on the idea." Mom said, as I was getting really confused.
"So, what is actually happening?" Alex asked.
"Your dad and I are getting divorced, and then remarried."
I looked over at my parents with my eyebrows still high. To me, it made no sense. "Why are you getting divorced then?"
"Because the last time we just made up, it didn't end up lasting." Dad answered, as I was still confused.
"We're getting rid of the marriage that didn't work out. That we kept fighting in. We're starting out fresh. A clean slate. A new start." Mom dummed it down as she got more confused looks from all three of us.
I nodded, still not having a clue about the meaning of the divorce, but yet relieved they weren't actually splitting up. We had heard stories from uncle Howard on the journey to Leonard and Penny. How they met, and dad instantly fell in love, even though aunt Amy states it isn't a real thing. How dad had proposed so many times, including in bed. It is really the proper love story Disney should tell, rather than Beauty and the Beast.
Very small chapter, but I just wanted to give you the rest of the explanation.
To everyone, I'm sorry about making Lenny fight, it was just for the story.
To bfm10, for the story line, I had to make them fight, and then recover. I know... it was definitely OOC! I am going to fix that, and they will hopefully become IC again!
To bamadude, I would never ever make this story a Shenny story! I am a huge Lenny fan myself, and hate all kinds of Shenny ideas. They are good as friends, but not as a couple.
