Although I was surprised by Nolan and the rest showing up, I’m glad they came. This only solidifies the bond between our families. When we made it back on the patio with the ladies and kids, Ladybug ran straight to James giving him a big hug. Monica and her parents have come a long way from how they used to be towards each other. It took a lot for her to get past the way they treated her when she was pregnant with Ladybug. She still has her moments, but I just remind her that they are at least putting forth an effort to be a part of our lives, and she should do the same.

I went to my mother-in-law and gave her a kiss on the cheek when I greeted her then I gave Janet a hug also. Harper was excited to see Albert too, as she jumped in his arms. We sat around, talking, and laughing at the kids as they played in the pool.

Simone excused herself, saying she wanted to get her digital camera to take pictures of the ocean view. I looked over at Nolan and raised my eyebrows. If he was going to get her by herself to talk, now was a good time to do so. He gave me a salute before getting up to leave.

Not sure if they talked or not, but thirty minutes later, Simone came back with her camera and different clothes on and her hair looked a little tussled too. She paused as she stepped onto the patio as all eyes fell on her.

“It took me a minute to find this baby.” She says, holding up the camera then hurrying to the seat next to Imani.

“Mmmhmm,” Monica hums beside me as she leans closer and says in a hushed voice, “Now you know damn well she wasn’t looking for that camera.”

I hold in my laughter. “She could’ve been, baby,” I respond with my hand covering my mouth. Seconds later, Nolan walks out with the biggest grin I have ever seen on his face staring at Simone. She gives him the evil eye that has that smile falling off quick.

“Where did you go to, Nolan?” Felix taunts.

Nolan frowns at him because he knows Felix is being messy. “I had to use the bathroom. Something I ate on the plane didn’t agree with me.” He replies taking a seat down from Simone.

“TMI, brother, TMI!” Monica giggles.

“Momma, can we go down to the beach?” Ladybug frantically asks as she and her little crew wait anxiously for Monica’s answer.

“If you ladies would like to spend some time at the beach with the children, I can have lunch sent down to you while we have our meeting.” Father offers.

“Please, momma?” Ladybug pleads.

Monica glances at the ladies. “What do you say, ladies, do you want to have lunch on the beach like movie stars?”

“Hell, yeah!” Keirra shouts before turning to Edgar and granny. “Sorry.”

Granny swats her leg. “Girl, don’t be sorry, hell I want to eat on the beach and sip champagne like the celebrities.
