A/N: I'm so sorry that it has been four or five months since I wrote a chapter, I hope I will have the story completed by July 1st. Happy reading!
Reba, Kara, Lindsay, Jordan and Jersey are sitting at a table in the restaurant.
"Girls, order whatever you like." Reba states. Lindsay leans up and looks at her mother.
"I thought we did that anyway." Lindsay says.
"Usually your father and I ask you to stay under a limit of twenty dollars per person, now I don't care what you eat." Reba replies.
"Does that mean I can get the lobster?" Lindsay questions with a huge smile on her face. Reba nods.
"Go ahead Lindsay. I think I may have the same thing." Reba responds.
"YES!" Lindsay hollers.
"Not so loud next time Lindsay." Reba says and the waiter turns around and looks at her with a pained look in his eyes.
"It's okay; I was already losing my hearing." The man glares at Lindsay.
"What did I do?" Lindsay asks absentmindedly.
"What would you like to order?" The man asks them all.
"Well for those two, we will have the chicken tenders, and I would like the lobster." Reba says.
"And I would like the lobster as well." Lindsay states with a huge smile.
"I would like the fish." Kara says politely and then folds her hands in her lap.
"Would anybody like a refill on their drink?" He asks.
"I would." Kara states. He walks over and picks up her glass.
"You were the one with the water weren't you?" He questions.
"Yes." Kara squeaks. The man walks away.
"Well girls, we have to talk. It's going to be a lot of work to make sure we don't all go nuts while your father is away. And I'm going to need help with this new baby. Are you girls willing to help me?" Reba asks.
"Yef!" Jersey exclaims and they all laugh.
"It's going to be a lot of work. But can we finally start acting like a family instead of constantly being at each other's throats?" Reba questions and looks around the table. Lindsay and Kara look at each other, Jordan, Jersey and then Reba.
"I think I can handle trying to agree and get along with you and Lindsay. Jersey and Jordan are going to be very easy to get along with and take care of." Kara says.
"I guess I can help and try to argue not as much. I'm just upset. I shouldn't take it out on you guys." Lindsay states.
"So we're in agreeance? We're going to be a family from now on?" Reba asks. They look at each other and nod.
"I guess so." Kara says.
"I'm so glad." Reba replies. "Now there won't be as many fights or competitions. We'll all be okay. We can make it even if your dad never wants to come home." Lindsay chokes on the sip of soda she was drinking.
"What?" Lindsay asks.
"I didn't mean it. I was just talking." Reba says. "Anyhow, I'm so glad that we'll be together and happy." Reba smiles.
