The next day Mason walked downstairs just after 9am. Tina looked at him.
“Ok so what was last night about?” Tina asked
“Nothing I don’t want to talk about it”
“That’s too bad because I do take a seat” Tina said sitting down at the kitchen table
Mason huffed as he took a seat
“I don’t want her to go Mum, everytime she goes away something goes wrong or she gets hurt, she changes and you all change too, Mama becomes the biggest moody person ever, you overload in work, and Lisa mopes about like a lovesick puppy” Mason explained
“It’s only for 3 weeks this time sweetie, Jess needs to do this to get her confidence back. She needs to know she’s good at what she does”
“No she doesn’t we all tell her everyday she’s amazing, she doesn’t need random strangers telling her”
“Mason your being selfish honey, you’re making Jess feel really bad for going to work, this is her job”
“Why can’t she be normal and get a normal job?”
“She’s doing one she loves” Tina explained “And you telling her she was the worst sister ever really hurt her feelings”
“Yeah Mason, you know she isn’t the worst sister, she is really good with you” Lisa said coming into the kitchen
“I didn’t mean it; I just don’t want her too go”
“Do you think I want her to go?” Lisa asked “I lose my fiancé and my sister every time they go on tour”
“It’s rubbish!”
“I know it is but they both love it, and they both deserve to do what they love and what they’re extremely good at” Lisa said sitting down at the table “You’ve seen how sad Jess has been”
“Yeah that’s because of the stupid last tour she did!” Mason snapped “And that idiot of a tour manager”
“She’s lost all her confidence and she needs to get that back before we get the whole lot of Jess back” Lisa explained
“It’s only for 3 weeks this time” Tina said “But you do owe your sister an apology please”
“I’ll apologise for saying she is the worst sister ever but that’s it” Mason huffed “I still don’t want her to go”
“Mason you’re going to need to accept it” Tina said getting up
“Yep your being unfair dude” Lisa said also getting up
“Lisa what time do you want to go dress shopping at?” Tina asked
“In about an hour if that’s okay” Lisa asked
“Yeah that’s fine I’ll just wake your Mama up, is Jess coming?”
“No she’s spending time with Carmen today and she’s got to go finalise tour details with Kelly” Lisa said “I’m just going for a shower”
“Is Mason coming?” Tina asked
“No he’s going with Jace to sort out his tux” Lisa replied “Jace is just getting dressed”
