Family of Two.
Chapter 704: Lori and college choice.

(January 20. Lauren Residence, Franklin Avenue. Royal Woods, Michigan.)

We see Lori Lauren and she came back from her time hanging out at the community college, and her study session, she sighs and then goes into the house, and there she sees the others who are waiting for her. Leni, Luan, but also there are Lincoln, and Luna.

Lori is surprised. "Umm, hi guys. So, what the heck are Lincoln and Luna doing here? What's going on?"

Leni then speaks, while pulling Luan close to her. "Lori, sit. We need to discuss about something."

Lori is still confused, and so she sits on the other arm chair. "Alright, what's happening here?"

Luna speaks first. "Lori, we are aware about the letters you got, the ones from Fairway."

Lori is baffled to hear this, then Luan speaks. "Sorry, Lori. They needed to know, and so did mom. You didn't tell us, but I know you planned to when the time was right, and I told them why the college would send letters to you."

Lori also recalls, she got a message from her former coach from the High School, and she sent some old footage of when Lori was the captain of the Royal Woods High School Varsity Golf Team, and that she is an ace in the hole, and this is what got her the attention from Fairway University, and they have seen how much she has changed after the court ordeal from back then.

Carol was also notified and she was surprised as well, and she is taking college at Fairway University alongside Becky and Whitney and they didn't see that one coming, and they were told by Coach Niblick that he was truly impressed by the footage and said that Lori is a golfer and possibly the best throughout Michigan, the best they haven't seen in a long, long time.

Lori sighs. "Yeah, that. I swear, that I had nothing to do with the video. It was an old footage from long ago, and I was so miffed when my old coach would do that, but it was kinda nice to be noticed, and yet it felt different and uneasy."

Lincoln then speaks. "Lori, we all came to talk together and we all agreed. That whatever choice you make, is alright with us. This is a once in a lifetime chance to be part of a higher, well greater educational system and you have been the best golfer around town, and you still are. We know that you wanna go there, and make a big difference and become a somebody who could have a bright future."

Luna speaks next. "This is a big gig, something that is not easy to come by often and I know that a lot of other folks would've wanted the same thing for their own education and to try and see what would happen next. We did some research and Fairway University is legit a golfers dream come true, with so many things to offer and make someone like you feel comfortable and at paradise."

Leni speaks next. "We know how this makes you feel, and if you wanna go, then go. Luan and I are alright with it, even though it feels kinda wrong to just let you move onward when we just started as our own family together and living in harmony. But, things need to change and we will adapt to that change and see where..."

"Guys, I am not going to Fairway University" replied Lori.

They all remain silent, and they can hear a Kriketot making chirping sounds nearby. Luan then asks. "Wait, wait and hold the phone up back into the charger... What?"

Lori nods, and she explains. "Guys, I am not going to Fairway University. I am already in a college and I'm fine with it."

All of them are so confused from this and then Leni speaks. "Wait, but Lori. I thought you'd wanna be part of this golfing school. This sounds like a dream you never knew you would've wanted, but truly needed."

Lincoln then asks. "What made you change your mind?"

Lori smirks and then she explains. "Alright, so yeah. I did have the intention to join Fairway University and see what I can do there, enjoy the golf and education and see where it all goes for me. But then, I looked back at everything that has happened before, and the stuff going down now, and it made me come into a clear decision. I don't wanna leave my family, or go someplace far from them."

"A lot of crazy stuff has gone down, and it has been a rough ride for me too. I mean, we have been through a lot and I have made a lot of mistakes back when we were all one big and loud family, and I may have been redeemed, but I feel like I need to learn how to forgive myself. I am happy where I am, and I don't wanna be apart from those I call family, you guys. So, I am not going to Fairway University."

They all didn't see this coming, then Lori realizes something. "Oh, and also the education system there is advanced and hard, and Carol explained that one and if I go there, then I'd literally be swamped in a ton of studying and it will literally make me sleep deprived. Better for me to be in the Royal Woods Community College, and not in that fancy golf college."

"I can always find some other way to accomplish my dream job of being a CEO my own way."

They are all amazed to hear this, and then Leni and Luan go over and hug Lori. Lori hugs them too, and she can see them have tears of joy, they would miss her and she is happy to know that they truly love her, and she loves them too.

Lincoln and Luna are surprised to hear this, but happy at the choice Lori made. Then something comes into Luna's thoughts. 'What are the odds that Fairway will ask her to reconsider?'

To be continued in the next chapter guys.

A/N: Looks like Lori is not leaving, she has her own life and she chooses what seems right for herself and her family, and this is good to let it trail for the final chapter, this summer. I hope that you all enjoyed reading this new chapter guys.
