Callie was reading a book in her bed when she heard Lena's voice
"Callie are you awake?"
"Yes Lena"
"Hey bug! How are you feeling?"
"Good. I think I'm healthy now" Callie didn't want to lie to her moms anymore
"You temperature was very high last time do you mind if I check it now?"
"No"
Lena took the thermometer and put it inside of Callie's mouth.
When it finally beeped Lena took it out and looked at it
"Well?" Callie asked
"You're not hot anymore" Lena said smiling "But just in case, you should rest. We are going to go to Matt's favorite pizza place for dinner tonight, but only if you feel good enough. If not we would just do
it tomorrow"
"Is it a long drive?" Callie didn't even know why she was asking
"Not too long. Maybe thirty minutes"
Callie nodded her head and Lena left the room.
*The fosters*
"Hello little guy" Mariana said surprised.
She was the first kid that came from school and Matt ran to her and hugged her.
"Hello big-sis" Mariana looked down to him and saw the joy in his eyes
"So Matt, what did you do today?" Mariana bent down so they would be at the same high.
She loved little kids.
"Me and MOMS watched a few movies, and played monopoly and I won!"
Lena and Stef who were listening from the kitchen were so happy.
He sounded like a normal child, and he already called them moms.
"Wow that sounds amazing!" She said just when Jude came in the door
"little big brother" Matthew called as he ran and hugged Jude
"Why little?" Jude asked laughing
"Because you are the youngest of all my big brothers!" Matt mad it seems rational
"Oh ok. So did you have fun with moms?" He asked.
Then he noticed Mariana was trying to tell him something.
He narrowed his eyes, saying he didn't understood what she was saying.
"I…AM….GOING…TO…SEE…CALLIE" She mouthed
Jude just nodded his head and she went pup stairs, hearing matt calling "Hey middle big brother and big big brother".
Hearing that made her giggle
"Can I come in?" Mariana knocked on her and Callie's room door
"It's you room as much as it is mine… Maybe even a little bit more" Mariana heard Callie saying.
"So? how did you stayed home?" Mariana asked, before noticing the thermometer and tea and all the other things.
"You're sick?"
"Not really…"
"You pretended to be sick?" Mariana whispered
Callie looked at the floor.
She was embarrassed.
"Yeah"
"Why?"
Callie didn't had any answer.
"Because…"
*The fosters*
"Hey bug" Lena said as she walked in Callie's and Mariana's room "How are you?"
"Good" Callie took off her earphones
"What are you doing?"
"I was just watching TV"
Lena placed her hand on Callie's forehead
"You don't feel warm any more."
"So will we go to the Pizza place?" Matt was standing in the door
"We will" Lena said
"AWESOME!" he said.
He turned around and was about to leave
"Oh yeah how are you Callie?"
"I'm good" Callie laughed
"When will we go there mom?"
"In thirty minutes I think."
"Thanks" He said as he walked out the room
Lena was sitting on Callie's bed but she looked at Mariana who was doing her English homework, listening to music, not even noticing what happened.
Lena looked at Mariana's face and could not decide whether it was anger or focus.
"Since when is she like this?" Lena asked Callie
"Since she came in the room"
"Is she ok? Did she say anything?"
"She didn't say anything" Callie lied.
Lena got up and walked to Mariana.
Mariana lifted her face and looked at her mother
"Yes?" Mariana sounded angry
"How are you?"
"Im doing my homework" She answered annoyed
"If you need to talk to anyone me and Mom are always here you know? You can tell us anything"
"Can you go now? I am trying to do my homework"
"Marian be nice"
"Can you go now, PLEASE"
"Marian you are testing my limits. But it's Matthew's day so you will come with us to the pizzeria. we are leaving in thirty minuets"
Mariana nodded her head and placed her earphones back in her ears.
Lena looked back at her daughters as she walked out of the room.
She was wondering what happened to Mariana, and guessed Callie wasn't saying all she knew.
*The fosters*
"Come on come on come on people!" Stef yelled from the door.
All of the boys came together, until then they were all sitting in the living room showing Matthew all of their X-box games.
Then Lena came from her and Stef's room, just in time to see her four boys racing to the car.
She laughed when she saw how Brandon tackled Jesus and Jesus tackled Jude and they all let their youngest newest brother reach the car first.
"Guys just don't ruin your shirts!" She yelled when she saw them falling into the grass, they were all wearing new T-shirts, including Matt, who got a new shirt from one of their neighbors kids who was
around his size.
"Mariana! Callie! We are all waiting for you in the car!" Stef yelled up the stairs
"Do you think I should go up there and make sure everything is ok?" Lena asked
"I'll do it. You go make sure our boys are all ready and don't need to change their shirts" Stef pointed out at the Jesus, Brandon, Jude and Matt that were now rolling in the grass, massing up their hair
and new shirts.
Lena took a breath, kissed her wife and went out the door, mumbling something about not buying them any new shirts ever again.
Stef looked up the stairs.
"Girls if you are not here in three seconds I will have to go up and drag you into the car" She yelled her warning sign
"One… Two…"
"Mom relax" Mariana said with a big smile on her face as she came down
"And where is your sister?"
"She'll be right down" Marian's voice sounded cold suddenly
"Is something wrong?" Stef held Mariana's arm when she walked passed her
"Nothing is wrong" Mariana said, freeing her hand from her mom's grip.
Stef raised he eyebrows
"Really mom, nothing is wrong" Maria said with a fake smile
"Me and mama are right here" Stef whispered loud enough so her daughter that started to go to the car could hear
"I know mom" Marian blow a kiss to her mother
"Calls we are leaving right now" Stef yelled, trying to get her daughter to go down faster.
When Callie didn't answer her, Stef decided to go wait In the car.
"Callie I'm waiting in the car" Stef closed the door after her.
"Mom where is Callie?" Matt asked when Stef entered the car
"She'll be right here" Stef assured him
"Did you go check on her? Maybe she doesn't feel good or something" Lena whispered to Stef.
"No and there is no reason. If she was sick she would have called us. Its ok"
"Stef I'm going to check it is not like Callie to be so late" Lena declared, leaving the car.
