Chapter 7:Rini and Getting Ready to Move
The next morning all the girls except Serena and Mina, Trista were sitting in the living room of their Suite when Serenity and Marisa knocked on the door before they came in.
"Good Morning girls," they said
"Good Morning," the girls replied.
"Where are Serena and Mina," asked Serenity?
"Where they usually are at 9:00 o'clock in the morning on a Sunday," Robin said, shaking her head.
"Still in bed," Serenity said, rolling her eyes.
"Yep," Robin said, also rolling her eyes.
"Some things will never change," said Trista, shaking her head.
"Tell me about it, you think they would start to grow up and actually get up when their alarm went off. Anyway have you girls tried to wake them up?" asked Serenity.
"Yes five times. they just keep rolling over and going back to sleep. Last time I went in I got pillows to my face. So I gave up, they probably stayed up too late last night. After all both of them have trouble sleeping when something bothering them ," Robin answered
"Sounds familiar, they are just like Serenity and Amelia." Marisa said, shaking her head. As Serenity walked out of the kitchen holding two glasses of water and heading toward Serena and Mina's bedroom.
"Fifteen minutes or it will be ice water next time," said Serenity as she was leaving.
Screams of "Ice water? Why do you hate us," were heard from Serena and Mina as Serenity closed their bedroom door.
Then Serenity walked back in the living room as out of nowhere a familiar beam of pink light appeared and an eight-year-old pink haired crimson eyed Rini fell out of it onto the floor. "Hi guys," said Rini as she was standing up and dusting herself off.
"Hey Rini," everyone but Marisa said.
Seeing the confused look on her mother's face, Robin looked at Serenity and said, "Will you handle this one while I help Serena and Mina avoid ice water?"
"Yes I will," said Serenity. Robin nodded her head and went to check on Serena and Mina. Serenity turned to and said, "Marisa, meet Rini, Serena's future daughter and you're great-nice."
"Hello Rini," said Marisa with a smile.
"Hello Aunty Marisa," said Rini.
"Uh Rini, not that I'm not thrilled to see you but what are you doing here," Robin Ami?
"I'm here because I wanted to come to visit and I wanted to go to Elizabeth's and Isabella's funeral," Rini answered.
"Ok," Robin said.
"We should start getting everything ready to go," Michelle told them.
"Ya we should," said everyone but Rini said.
"Where are you all going," asked Rini?
"We are going to Sussex to the Coulter Paige family estate with Aunty Serenity and Aunty Marisa," Mina answered, walking into the room and giving Rini a hug.
"Oh. Anything I can help with," asked Rini?
"Not right now that Mina and Serena are awake we're just waiting for the guys to show up. But if you want to help load up the cars once they get here you are for then welcome to," Ami said.
"Sure I'll help. It's the least I can do after showing up out of nowhere." Rini replied
"Now I will have none of that Rini. You are always welcome to come visit and you have as much right to say goodbye to Grandma Elizabeth and Grandma Isabella as the rest of us. They adored you," Robin stated firmly. Before anyone could say anything there was a knock on the door signaling the arrival of the guys.
"Hey guys come on in," Mina told them, holding open the door.
"Thank Mina, oh and Robin, there is someone downstairs who wants to see you," said Malachite.
"Alexis," Robin said with relief heading to see her girlfriend.
"Alexis what are you doing here? The guys said that you were in Russia with your parents," Robin inquired.
"I was. Darien called last night to let me know what was going on. Why didn't you call me? Didn't you know I would drop everything to be here to help and support you?" She answered.
"Of course I did and I was going to call you after the benefit. I knew how important the Romanov foundation is to you and your parents."
"No benefit is more important than being here for you right now. We should get up stairs and help the others.
"Yes we should."
Paige Coulter Family Estate Sussex, England
A Couple days later everyone was getting ready to go to Elizabeth's and Isabella's funeral. The girls were in Robin's room talking.
"Do you think we will run into Mike and Alan at the funeral?" asked Serena.
"I hope I am not in the mood to deal with them today," Robin answered.
"You know who else will most likely be at the funeral?" said Mina.
"No who?" Serena asked.
"Eddie (A.K.A Edward Jr), Monique, and Angel ," said Mina.
"God I hope not. I do not want to see or talk to him. I wouldn't mind seeing Monique and Angel. I like them and accept them as my sisters," Robin said.
"I hate to be the bear of bad news but he more than likes to be there after he is Isabella's grandson and Robin, Ari, and Anna's brother," said Ami.
"He may be Isabella's grandson but he sure as hell is not my brother," Robin commented.
"He is not our brother either,"
"I see you guys haven't forgiven Eddie," a voice came from the doorway.
"No we haven't, can you blame us after what he did Aunty Serenity," asked Robin.
"No I cannot anyway I came up here to tell you it is time to go,"
"Everyone ready?" asked Serena.
"As we ever will ever be," answered Ari.
