My family
Five people enter the room........
Lydia (fl mom)
Oh, Evangeline my baby!!
Are you okay?
Lydia (fl mom)
Does it hurt anywhere??
Lydia (fl mom)
Look how pale and tired you look.
Lydia (fl mom)
You know, I told your father to arrange the best mattress in the kingdom for you but he------
Luther (fl dad)
I already did it Okay?
Luther (fl dad)
I too care about my daughter.
Edwin Blake(fl bro)
How careless can you be Evangeline??
Edwin Blake(fl bro)
We were all worried sick.
Ethan Blake(fl bro)
We thought you wouldn't-----
(nobody dared complete the sentence as their mother swallowed the tears that threatened to fall)
Edmund Blake(fl bro)
(sighs) What matters is that you are alright.
I'll call the doctor to check on you.
Lydia (fl mom)
Yes, and I'll ask the head chef to prepare your favourite dishes today.
Luther (fl dad)
(In his mind)
Yes, and we will all see you coddle your little baby while burning in jealousy😒
While everyone was fussing around Evangeline with loads and loads of questions about her current health, there was this little Adelaide who missed her parents dearly and couldn't control her tears at the family's unconditional affection for her
She jumped into the arms of the woman she has come to recognize as her mother and let her tears fall.
Lydia was surprised at first but welcomed her daughter in the warmth of her embrace.
The family hugged each other until Evangeline ran out of tears and reasons to cry.
Lydia (fl mom)
Are you okay baby?
Evangeline Blake (fl)(Adelaide)
(Nodded her head)
Lydia (fl mom)
Okay then!!
Come downstairs for supper or have it in your room.
Just don't starve yourself.
Okay?
Evangeline Blake (fl)(Adelaide)
Ok mother.
I'll take care of myself.
Please don't worry too much for me.
Lydia (fl mom)
Oh my smart baby. My little girl has grown up.
But remember, you'll always be my little girl wherever you go.
Luther (fl dad)
OUR little girl.
Before the couple could start fighting again, the brothers led them out of the room to let their sister rest for some time before she could have her supper.
