Chapter 2- Mary and Carlos's Family
"Charlie, you need to catch the bus. Your father and I are running late to get to work. Andie, Karla, Karina, and Jarod, you four need to get ready so you can catch the bus too. Carlos get Carlo ready and take him to the Colonel and Grandma Ruth' house for the day," yelled Mary to her family.
"We're coming, mom!" Charlie, Andie, Karla, Karina and Jarod yelled to her mother.
"See you later, honey!" said Carlos to her wife.
"Bye, hon! I won't be home till late," said Mary to her husband and her baby son, Carlo.
"Mom, where are you flying to today?" asked Charlie.
"I'm flying to GlenOak, then Miami, Houston, then Cleveland and then back here. Girls come and eat breakfast, same with you Jarod," said Mary to eldest son.
Charlie eats and walks out to the bus stop.
At the bus stop
"Hey Charlie!" said Marie.
"What's up?" asked Charlie.
"Nothing much. Where are you going over break?" asked Marie.
"To GlenOak to see my grandparents, and Aunts, Uncles and cousins. We are staying with my Aunt Lucy, Uncle Kevin and their kids; Savannah, Krissy, Kellylyn, April, Chris, Katelyn and Jessica. I also think my Aunt Ruthie is staying there with my sister. So they can talk about my Uncle Peter's death. Aunt Lucy's best friend died when she was 14 or 15, but she was denial for awhile. They are all flying out here over Spring Break and staying with either our family, my Uncle Matt's family or my Aunt Ruthie's family," said Charlie.
"Cool! The bus is coming!" said Marie.
"Marie, will you go out with me?" asked Charlie.
"Yes Charlie. I will!" Marie said, as they got on the bus.
At Andie's bus stop
"Hey, Andie!" said Jerry.
"Hey, you!" Andie said back to him.
"Hey, what's up?" asked Krysta.
"Nothing, you?" said Andie.
"So are you leaving for GlenOak tonight?" asked Krysta.
"No, tomorrow. That's the only time my mom can get on a flight and stay in the place the plane flew to," said Andie.
"Where are you staying?" asked Jerry.
"At my Aunt Lucy's house with my family, their family and my Aunt Ruthie's family. I'm sharing a room with my older cousin, Savannah. Charlie and Joe are sharing with our cousin, Chris. Karla is sharing with our cousins, Krissy and Kellylyn. Krissy has her own room but that's where our parents are staying. Karina, Alyssa, and Claire are sharing with our cousin, April. Jarod, Carlo and Khloe are sharing with our twin 9 month cousins, Katelyn and Jessica," said Andie to her best friend and boyfriend.
"So your Aunt Lucy and Uncle Kevin's kids are Savannah, Krissy, Kellylyn, April, Chris, Katelyn and Jessica?" asked Jerry.
"Yep!" said Andie.
"And your Aunt Ruthie's kids are Joe, Alyssa, Claire and Khloe?" asked Krysta.
"Yes!" said Andie.
"Which of their kids are your age?" asked Jerry and Krysta.
"Well, out of my Aunt Lucy and Uncle Kevin's, there is Savannah, she's 14 and a freshman and Krissy is my age and in my grade. Joe, my Aunt Ruthie's son, is 11 and in sixth grade," answered Andie.
"Cool!" said Krysta.
"The bus is coming!" Jerry said very unhappily.
"Fun… Fun," said Andie.
At Karla and Karina's bus stop
"Tomorrow night, we will be in California at our Aunt Lucy and Uncle Kevin's house," said Karina.
"I know, it's so exciting," said Karla.
Mary walks Jarod out to the bus stop and gets him on the bus. Then she heads to work.
