Back at the Vic, Peggy and Tracey had taken over the shift from Ronnie and Roxy. They were upstairs, having their tea.
- Mum's taking her time to just get bread' Ronnie said looking out the window of the kitchen.
- Maybe she left us again' Roxy said sarcastic and all smiles.
- Roxy stop, i'm gonna give her a ring' Ronnie said dialing Glenda's cellphone.
Immediately the girls heard a sound coming from the landing.
- We're here! Glenda said walking up the stairs with Robbie carrying some grocerybags.
- What took you so long ?'Roxy asked.
- She's going to make us dinner' Robbie said putting the bags on the kitchentable.
- She.. is mum! 'Ronnie said but Robbie pretended as if she didn't hear it.
- I'll help out in a minute just let me change into something else 'Robbie said to Glenda then left the kitchen.
Ronnie and Roxy looked at eachother and Glenda noticed it.
- What?' Glenda asked.
- She's not gonna help out mum, 'changing into something else' is only an excuse to not help out with dinner' Roxy said 'she does it all the time'.
- Really and you still fall for it then?'Glenda asked' well she said she'd help out, and…she will'
- Wanna make a bet for it?'Ronnie said.
- Well, i admit there's a lot i don't know about her, i mean i might have missed out on all your lives but with the two of you i had some years and know a bit of what goes on, you know kinda, but with the little one…'Glenda said.
- Well you found out this morning she's a cheeky one and she really is, she got that from Rox i guess'Ronnie said smiling at Roxy.
- What? You are calling me cheeky 'Saint Veronica'!'Roxy said slapping Ronnie on the arm..
- Well i can see she's a real Mitchell she has that Mitchell attitude'Glenda said.
- Don't know if being a Mitchell is a compliment mum but she has a lot of attitude yeah and she can be a handfull, but i think we did well with her though' Ronnie turned serious.
- We? You did well with her Ron, i wasn't that easy either'Roxy said.
- Thank you Rox but i don't know if i would have done so good without you'Ronnie said.
- Don't put yourself down Ron, you did well with the both of us, without you…well i really would have missed out on a mum'.
Ronnie gave Roxy a big hug while Glenda stood there with tears in her eyes feeling the guilt all over again.
- I know i can't change anything after all these years but..'Glenda said.
- Shhh mum you here now, we'll see how everything goes'Ronnie said tapping her mum on the back.
Then surprisingly Robbie turned up at the kitchen again. They all were starring at her.
- What? I said i was gonna change my clothes...don't act so surprised allright'Robbie said.
Ronnie gave Robbie a hug and pinched her cheek 'i love you baby' she said.
- Yeah right' Robbie said 'stop being so sentimental Ron, allright where can i start?'
- Well you can help Roxy out peeling the potatoes darling'Glenda said.
- Yeah and try keeping them looking like potatoes Rob' Roxy said sarcastic looking at her babysister.
- Ron better keep that first aid kit close by then, "Roxanne" and knives sounds like a disaster about to happen' Robbie said trying to outsmart her sister.
Glenda looked at her three girls, reminding her of what she had been missing all these years, these memberable moments, her daugthers close by and driving eachother up the wall but still having all the love of the world for eachother.
Later that night Glenda and Ronnie were still up and having a little chat in the livingroom. Roxy just had put Amy back to bed, Amy who had woken up from her , tired herself decided to turn in also. Ronnie had sent Robbie to bed to watch some tv and then go to sleep.
- This was a nice evening darling, i really had a good night with my girls' Glenda said.
- Yeah me too, this is what i imagined how it should have been all these years'Ronnie said.
- Look i know i made big mistakes, and i've been feeling guilty all these years, but …well you know how your father was, i was afraid of him and..well as long as he was around .. He controlled me'.
- Yeah well mum, he wasn't the easiest man to be around but we survived' Ronnie said.
- You've always been really strong darling, more stronger then i've been if i could have had a little bit more of you in me the..'
- Can't we just forget about dad allright, i don't wanna talk about him'Ronnie said.
- Allright so cup of tea then? Glenda asked.
- Sure, let me go check on Robbie, she should be sleeping by now, she always falls asleep with ipod and tv on'Ronnie said standing up and walking to the hallway, then opened the bedroomdoor where Robbie was suppose to be sleeping but instead was talking on the phone.
- Oi you're still up?'Ronnie asked surprised 'Who's on the phone?'
- Hold on Whit it's my mum' Robbie said.
Ronnie got on the bed and grapped Robbie's phone out of her hands"Goodnight Whit lights out and goodnight!'
- MUM! shut up!'Robbie yelled at Ronnie 'i was having a conversation do you mind!'.
- Could you please tone it down a bit missy? And yes i do mind, you still got a day of school tomorrow you should be sleeping instead, now turn your light out and go to sleep!'Ronnie said standing up and turning the tv off.
- Ehm excuse me…?'Robbie said.
- What? Goodnight Robbie' Ronnie said wanting to give Robbie her kiss goodnight.
- Eh what about my phone?'Robbie asked arrogant.
- You'll get that back tomorrow you don't need that tonight anymore'Ronnie said.
- What about waking up tomorrow, it's my alarm, i don't wake without it Ron!'Robbie said trying to convince Ronnie to give her back her phone.
- Forget it, i'll be up and i'll wake you, don't you worry your little head bout that baby, now close your eyes and go to sleep!' Ronnie said strict. Robbie knew Ronnie was serious about this, she should keep her calm now or she would be in a lot of trouble.
