My Baby My Girl

Episode 28

Megan gives it to her and she leaves, she turns
back to look at Sean, she sees the desire in his
eyes, she shakes herself… he comes closer to
her

“Stay the hell away from me Sean, stay the hell away from us, Get out!!”‘ she points to the door

“‘Don’t you ever touch me like that again”

”Megan!”
“‘GET OUT!!” She snaps
Sighing, Sean leaves back to the party.

Zachary notices his countenance “What
happened in there bro?”

Sean has a sad smile on his face “‘I think I
messed up again”

Zachary grabs his shoulders and taps him on
his back, “Don’t worry, it would be fine” Sean doesn’t answer, he wasn’t so sure… one minute
they were in-tune and the next they weren’t and he was afraid that she would never let him come that close again..

He was honest when he told her he liked her, he really did like it, how the hell did that happen he had no idea but Dammit!! He has feelings for Megan Philips and he has no idea what to do to get her to feel the same or give him a chance to make her stop hating him. It was frustrating… it
was.

When she comes out she ignores him again, this time till the party was over and everyone was leaving… as the place suddenly became
deserted, the last parents approaches Megan.

“Thank you Miss Philips for having us, and
Happy Birthday again Kiki” the last parent leaves taking their children

“‘I am glad, Kiki say your goodbyes” Megan says

”Goodbye Tom, Luke..bye “she waves
From the corner of her eyes she sees them,
Tonia taking her mother inside, then she comes back out to help clear up, she sees her laughing at what Zachary says then she sees Sean helping her to clear up the place.

She walks up to them with Kiki running ahead of her to pick up cups and throwing it into the bag Sean carried, then he gives her a high five.

“‘Erm… I think we can clear up later ourselves right Tonia?” she clears her throat avoiding his eyes, she frowns deeply.

”It’s no problem… we’re almost done”‘ Sean tells her

”It’s fine Megan, they are trying to help” Tonia turns to her

”I will just get someone to do that later for me, thank you..for Kiki’s gifts, she doesn’t need it but-”

”I do, it’s my castle”‘ Kiki pouts
”Yes. It’s her castle!!” Sean repeats
apologetically, why won’t she look at him
”And it’s pink”‘ she says ”I also like pink”‘

”Yes she does”
”Whose side are you on Tonia?” she c—s her head to the side staring at Tonia angrily
Zachary and Sean frowns “We didn’t know we are picking sides now “‘

Megan rolls her eyes, saying stiffly “Thank you but..I think it’s time to go..say your goodbye’s Kiki”‘

Kiki reluctantly does, going to hug Sean who
does the same ”Take care Tonia” Sean says
walking away and passing Megan, he pauses
“‘maybe, when you are not being defensive, we could talk about what happened at the beach and
in there”‘ he says for her ears only
She doesn’t answer him, sighing he beckons to Zachary so they leave, Megan stands to watch him enter his car, waving to Kiki .

”You know it was really sweet for him to come by, bearing gifts, indulging kiki and even staying back to clean, the least you can do is be grateful and stopped being an insensitive arrogant a-s”

Tonia whispers to her
“Kiki, I want you to meet someone special to me in the whole universe” Megan takes Kiki’s hands pulling her to the house, ignoring Tonia, who just
shakes her head, seeing Sean pull away, she
goes inside to meet them.

Ruth turns when they come into the house.
“Kiki, I want you to meet your grandmother”

Megan says to Kiki pushing her forward
Kiki’s beautiful face screws up ”My
grandmother? The one in the pictures on the
table, this one?” she lets go of Megan’s hands,

gets the picture, she is pointing and comparing looking at Ruth and the picture

”Yes baby, that is my mum, your grandmother and she is happy to see you”‘

“‘Yes I am Kiki, and I am so sorry… will you
forgive me for being away for like ever?” Ruth asks as tears run down her eyes, she opens her arms and goes down to her level
Kiki stares at her for a minute, then a smile
breaks out in her face as she rushes to go hug
her “‘Hello grandma!!” she hugs her closing her eyes, Ruth laughs and cries, kissing her face and hugging her, she pulls Megan down and they are hugging and kissing each other’s faces.

Tonia wipes tears again from her eyes the
second time that evening. Surely, God has a
hand in this re-union. Miracles do happen.
But God, Tonia Prays, one more. Just one more.
