Kai is learning to drive with his permit, just as a winter storm moves in. Luca insists he will be fine, and that he needs the practice in inclement weather. Nadia didn’t feel as confident being a passenger, so she gladly allowed Luca to take the reins.

When they get back, Thea and Clio are outside playing in the snow.

budding imaginations

The last few years had brought a great deal of chaos to the Browning household. Nadia’s bookstore would celebrate its fourth anniversary in May, and it finally seemed to be making a steady income. They weren’t going to retire like a Rockfeller this lifetime, but it was enough.

Kai had started working part-time, mostly the weekends. His Mom didn’t mind if his friends stopped by as long as they weren’t rowdy. Books were a shared passion for Kai and his Mom, and he didn’t mind helping out; it didn’t hurt that it gave him an income to spend on more books.

Dr. Morgan had ordered Nadia to be induced the next day, but the twins were on their way during the early morning hours.

Luca has thoroughly enjoyed raising Mavis, and teaching her things that Kai already knew when we started dating. Unfortunately, I don’t think Mavis got the memo, and she’s often rather distracted when he’s trying to impress onto her something great like a nursery rhyme.

everything seems perfect

narrated by: Nadia

Mavis joined our family, and it feels like she’s always been apart of it. Everything is different from when Kai was a baby, I raised him alone without his Dad coming by much, and now I have Luca who helps out above and beyond. She is such a happy gem, just like Kai had been, which I take full credit for, and Luca is happy to oblige me. I’ve been told he was rather melancholy and soulful as a child, and so far that is not Mavis.
