” MmmWhat smells so good?” Carmen smiled.

“It’s one of my favorites. Masitas de pollo.”

“What is that?”

“It’s chicken bits served with sweet onions and rice.”

“Sounds tasty.”

“Alright, little lady. Dinner will be done soon, so go away until I come and get you.” Shane tapped Carmen on the butt and walked out of the kitchen.  Carmen smiled and kept on cooking.  Fifteen minutes later, dinner was served. Carmen called Shane and Jenny to the kitchen. Jenny walked into the kitchen, and Shane went to get Christina. Shane appeared in the kitchen with Christina behind her. The girls took a seat in front of tasteful plates. They said grace and started to eat.

“We haven’t met yet, I’m Jenny. I used to own this house. And you must be Christina.” Christina looked up from her place and smiled.

“Yes, I am. It’s nice to meet you too Jenny. I’ve heard a lot of  about you.”

“I hope it was all good things.” Jenny cut her eyes towards Shane. Shane looked at Jenny.

“They were all good things, trust me.” Christina smiled at Shane. Shane smiled and continued to eat.

“Babe, this is really good.”

“Thank you. Has anyone seen Mark?”

“He left earlier with a friend.” Christina looked at Shane sadly.

“So how are you doing Christina? Is everything ok with you two?” Carmen took a drink of her wine. Christina drops her fork and wiped her mouth off.

“I don’t know. He hasn’t come back and apologized. I hate that we had this petty little fight over nothing. I love him, even though that we only been together for only three weeks.” Jenny reached over and grabbed her hand.

“Don’t worry about this fight. He’ll come back to his senses and come back crawling. Just wait sweetie, everything will be fine.” Christina smiled and squeezed Jenny’s hand.

“Thank you.” Christina picked her fork back up and finished her dinner.

            Bette and Tina walked in the house, and Tina took Destiny to her crib. Bette took off her shoes and sat down on the couch. Tina came back from the nursery and put her hair in a messy bun. She took a seat next to Bette and leaned her head on her shoulder.
