Just To Let You Know: I own nothing and no one, I don't even own me, my parents do.

"Nothing, how about you go to your room. Don't worry about it, it isn't your fault." Paul said watching her waddle up the steps. He went up to Kristina's room to find Alyssa sitting in pretzel style next to Kristina listening to her CD. "Kris?" He asked. She looked up and took her headphones of and Alyssa pressed the off button.

"Yeah?" She asked.

"Why'd you say that?" Paul asked.

"You and mommy act as if me and Ally don't know what she did and it was dead wrong. You would never do anything like that. Once you and her have a little argument, she's ready for someone else." Kris yelled.

"What did we do so wrong for her to make us lose our family like this?" Alyssa asked.

"What you said was disrespectful and she said sorry. She went to a bar and she got drunk so it isn't her fault." Paul said.

"It isn't her fault?" Alyssa asked sarcastically.

"You and mommy always tell us to make the right decisions and to let you know, her decision was way off." Kris said.

"She also tells us not to run from our problems, but she did." Alyssa said with tears in her eyes. "To add to the pain she caused me and Kris and the confusion to Ria, she gets remarried less then two years after the divorce." Alyssa said.

"Look, I forgave mommy for what she did. Don't you think I was upset? Don't you think I was infuriated? I was angry to the highest ranks but because of the love I have for her, I forgave her. You need to do so too and you Kristina Marie, you need to stop with your little comments. Now this weekend we will stay indoor for the rest of it." Paul argued.

"I can call grandma Patti." Kristina said.

"Call grandma Patti, does it look like I'm afraid of my own mother?" Paul asked. "I didn't think so. It's almost twelve and you both will have a swell and happy day in this damn house, if you like it or not!" Paul yelled.

"Damn isn't a word of our vocab...." Alyssa started to say until her father glared at her making her shut up. He walked into Maria's room. She was sleeping peacefully so he walked into Stephanie's room to find her walking to the door.

"Where are you going?" Paul asked.

"To Kris' room." She walked pass him into her daughters room, she didn't knock she just walked in.

"Just walk on in." Kristina said sarcastically.

"Look little girl, I don't know who you think you are. Maybe you're mistaken because I am the parent and you are the child. You listen to me and you treat me with respect. After carrying you for nine months I think I deserve to be treated with at least some respect. As for you Alyssa, if you have a problem we'll discuss it and it applies to you too Kris." Stephanie said. "Now I've said sorry many times before and it's quite obvious you haven't forgiven me yet. Your dad and I have decided to try to put our pasts behind us. I'm going to tell you right now, I'm not going to deal with this B.S.."

"Mommy I'm sorry." Alyssa said hugging Stephanie still crying.

"I'm sorry too." Stephanie said kissing Alyssa's hairline. Their blue eyes met and she went to her room. Stephanie then looked at Kristina.

"Mommy I am sorry for disrespecting you but...why and how could you do that to daddy?"

"Kris I never thought I could. Your dad was with me through thick and thin and I couldn't believe what I did. I am sorry for the things I did in my past and now I'm hoping we can just live life and roll with the punches. Kristi, I love you and your sisters and daddy and I am sorry for the things I did."

"I love you too mom." Kris said with tears threatening to fall. She refused to cry, she was always the strongest and she was going to remain that way. Stephanie kissed her daughters forehead and walked to her room to find Paul watching television sitting on a chair. She smiled.

"What are you afraid to sit on my bed?" Stephanie asked.

"No I just don't want to sit on another mans bed." He said.

"Oh well this bed is mines, I got rid of a lot of things before he had gotten home with the bed being one of them. He never really came or even got a chance to come up stairs." Stephanie said sitting on the bed. "I was hoping to share this one with someone kind of special."

"Is that an offer?" he asked.

"You can call it what ever but I'd like you to come and keep me comfy." She smiled. He sat with her and kissed her neck making her giggle.

Short, I know. I'll update tomorrow, after I take my last Final. KeeKee
