Little babies just love to start crying at 5 am. First Alison, now Ella. Liz: "I slept enough, I can handle this." Can you also handle this dirty kitchen? Liz: "..... How did it get so dirty in here?" Liz went to search Brent after cleaning the kitchen. She found him in the hallway together with Alison. Brent: "And what's this?" Alison: "Cow!" Brent: "That's good! You did a great job, Alison." Alison: "Done?" Brent: "Yep, all done!" Alison: "Ella?" Brent: "You want to play with Ella? She's still to young to play with but you can go play with your toys while Ella is watching you, okay?" Alison: "Okay!" Alison crawls down the stairs. Liz: "You're free now?" Brent: "Yeah, why?" Hehe. Don't judge me. I want a boy, no matter what. Ninja: "Woof?" Ninja, please. I know I didn't locked the door but that doesn't mean you can interrupt whenever you like. Ninja: "Woof!" I guess you're right. I need to lock the door. Liz: "We're expecting a third baby." Brent: "Why exactly did we do this again?" Hehehehehehe. I think Brent and Liz hate me now. Liz & Brent: "Yeah, we do." You don't have to be so rude.... Brent and Liz were only gone for one moment, but apparently that was enough time for Alison to destroy the entire ground floor. Brent: "ALISONNNNNN!!!" Ella: *cries* Brent: "Oh no, now there's also this problem........" I went into build mode to make a basement after cleaning the ground floor. Now it's still an empty basement with no floors or fancy walls, but I think this is going to be my storage place for future Collections and stuff. I don't really need it now, but better too soon than too late, right? I also made this little greenhouse, just because. Brent: "It's a nice little greenhouse, I'll give you that." Alison: "Potty!" Liz: "Oh, you want to stop with the cards because you need to use the potty?" Alison: "Alone." She really went to the potty all by herself. Children grow so fast... By the time that Alison went upstairs all by herself, peed in the potty and became exited for succeeding, Brent and Liz had already returned inside Liz: "Will you be allright with the girls when I'm at work?" Brent: "Yeah. You just go and get your earned promotion, okay?" Liz: "I will. See you tonight!" *kiss* I also hope she gets her next promotion today. Just as Liz takes her leave, Brent gets another call from Brant. Brant: "Hi... Ehm... Don't hang up on me, please." Brent: "Okay, I won't." Brant: "I ehm... Just have so many questions and I don't really want to ask them on the phone. Can we maybe meet each other somewhere?" Brent: "I'm not really in the possibility to leave the house, but I guess you can come over." Brant: "I can?! I mean.... Right, I'll come over!" I've been canceling his calls so much lately, maybe I'll just let him come over once to sort everything out. Brent: "Should I make something to eat? Maybe I'll make something for myself and Alison so I can offer him something afterwards. Yeah, that's a great idea." You're thinking way too much. Oh, Brant arrived. It seems like Ninja already likes him. Ninja: "Woof!" Brant: "Ahh, you're just as cute as Rosie. What's your name?" Brent: "It's Ninja. I'm in the kitchen." Brant: *peeks head inside* "Is this the kitchen?" Brent: "Yeah. Hello." Brant: "Hi. May I come in?" Brent: "Yeah, sure. Take a seat." Brant takes a seat and Alison walks around the corner. Brant: "Oh, who's that?" Brent: "Alison. My oldest daughter." Brant: "Oldest daughter.... So the little one in the living room is your youngest daughter?" Brent: "Yeah, Ella is her name." Brant: "Ah, what a nice name." Brent turns to Alison to give her some food, but she refuses to take it. Alison: "That's not from mommy...." Brent: "I made it with love! Please eat it." Brant: "Even your daughter knows you're a terrible cook." Brent: "Don't say that in front of her! I'm trying to feed her!" Brant: "Sorry, sorry. So, you already have two children?" Brent: "Actually, a third one is on his way.... Thanks to someone." Hey, leave me out of it! Brent: "How about you?" Brant: "I'm remarried with someone but I'm not yet thinking about kids. We still have Rosie." Brent: "Oh, Rosie. How's she doing?" Brant: "She's doing well, but you also got yourself an awesome dog. Ninja is also nice." For some unknown reason, Alison actually took Brent's macaroni and sat down on the floor. He looked straight at Brant. Alison: "I like you." Brant: "Awww, thank you sweetheart. I like you too!" Alison: "My name is Alison. I also have a sister, Ella" Brant: "Oh, is that so?" Just at that moment, Ella cries. Brent: "Oh, I think I need to check on Ella." Brent rushes to Ella but Brant is faster. Brant: "Can I try this?" Brent: "I don't think that's...." Brant: "Please! Just once." Brent: "Hmpf... Okay.... But please, be gentle." Brant: "Of course! Just relax for a while. I think you've been busy enough for the past few days." Damn, Brant is actually super sweet. Brent: "Yeah, he is.... Sorry Brant, I need to excuse myself to the toilet for a while. I trust you with my daughter, okay?" Brant: "That's really nice of you! Take as long as you need, okay?" Brent: "Why am I so nervous?!" It's your ex-husband. He's really nice. Brent: "I know that! This is REALLY not helping right now. I made a mistake...." You may have made a mistake, but as you already know, Brant also started a new life. He just want things to be solved so you both can go further on good terms. Brent: "... I know that. I'm just.... So happy that he's not mad at me. He's even helping me with my daughters while they're not even his own..." Alison went upstairs to take a nap after finishing her food. Brant: "I'm so happy that I could come over today. Thank you." Brent: "Yeah... I was actually scared to let you come over." Brant: "Why?" Brent: "I thought... Maybe you're still super mad at me... And you're right." Brant: "I'm still hurt, yeah, but I'm not mad anymore. Forgive but don't forget." Brent: "There was something you wanted to talk about, right?" Brant: "Yeah, right. I wanted to ask you... Was it easy for you to forget me?" Brent: "... No, it wasn't. We've been together for a long time. You can't just 'forget' that." Brant: "Okay, okay. Nice. I ehm... Also wanted to apologize for my behavior when everything happened. I never really had the chance to do so." Brent: You don't really need to apologize for that. I'm the one who should apologize for hurting you so much... So.... Sorry." Brant: "I'm glad that we finally got the chance to talk about this." Brent: "Yeah, me too." Brant and Brent watched TV for while chatting around. Brant: "I think it's time to go home now. It was nice to see you again, Brent. Stay healthy!" Brent: "You too. Good luck with your wife." And with that, Brant left the house. Everything allright, Brent? Brent: "Yeah. I'm fine. I'm actually relieved and happy now. He deserves so much better." Brent played some video games to clear his mind. Suddenly Alison stood in the study room. Apparently she had a nightmare and came downstairs for some comfort. Brent: "I'll read you a funny story so you can sleep again, okay?" Alison: "Yes!" I don't know what the story was about, but Alison fell fast asleep again. Liz got the promotion we all hoped for! For this generation I'll need to master the Chef Branch, so Chef Branch, here we come. Hehe. Liz already achieved the promotion tasks, but I think that next promotion is for Friday or Saturday (because she has a three-day gap). She's doing really well! I'm proud of her. Finally, time to sleep. They both had a lively day (especially Brent, hahahaha! Poor guy). Goodnight!

I'm apparently reading these out of order. Didn't realize I missed so many. 😬

Opps... on a positive note... I do think it was good Brant and Brent got some closure. That was a long time coming and certainly needed.
