The next morning Selena woke up. Roman wasn't in bed next to her. She got up and went down the hall.
"Roman?" She said.
"I'm in here." His voice was coming from the nursery. She went into the nursery. Roman was sitting in the rocking chair feeding Brayden a bottle. "Good morning."
"Good morning."
"Brayden was crying and I thought you could use your sleep." "So I came in, changed her, now I'm feeding her breakfast."
"Well thank you."
"You're welcome." "I need the practice anyway." "We'll have two to do this with soon."
"I can't wait."
"Me either."
"Do you know if Kyle's up yet?"
"I think he's still asleep."
"I'm gonna go check on him."
"Ok." "When I'm done feeding Brayden I'll make breakfast for all of us."
Selena went to Kyle's room.
"Kyle." She knocked and went in. Kyle was dressed and making his bed.
"Hi mommy."
"We need to talk." "Sit down." They both sat on the bed.
"Are you mad at me mommy?"
"No." "I'm disappointed."
"I didn't mean to make you cry."
"I heard you last night." "I don't hate you." "I love you." "You're my mommy." "It's just...
"What?"
"I miss living with daddy." "I miss the house." "I miss all my friends." "I want to go home."
"That's still your home but this is to."
"Why can't you just get back together with daddy?"
"Daddy and I don't want to be with each other anymore." "Roman isn't trying take the place of your daddy." "He just wants to get to know you."
"I'm just not used to anybody but daddy." "It's really weird."
"I know." "I'll tell you what." "If you apologize to Roman you're not grounded.""We'll go to the park after breakfast."
"Ok."
Selena and Kyle went downstairs and into the kitchen. Kyle went up to Roman.
"Roman." He said. "I'm sorry for being so rude last night."
"It's alright." "I know this is a big thing to get used to." "Do you want some breakfast?"
"Yeah."
After breakfast they all went to the park. Kyle was pushing Brayden in the baby swing. She was laughing and smiling.
"Is Kyle playing with you?" Selena said. She took a picture with her phone.
After awhile Selena took Brayden out of the swing. She sat her on the ground.
"Kyle get behind your sister." Selena said. "I want to take a picture." He sat behind her. "Do you care if Roman gets in the picture?"
"No."
"Roman get beside them." He did. "Everybody smile on three." "One, two, three." She took the picture.
