"Mister Lawes?" Came Charles' voice from the other side of the door.

"Enter." Quincy said. Looking away from the group seated in his office when Charles walked in.

"I apologise for this." He looked around the room uncomfortably. "But a Mister Atkins is at the door and refuses to leave. He insists on speaking with you and the family. Most especially you sir. And Lucille." He waited for Quincy to speak. He didn't. "If I may sir, he complained that he had been calling your office at work and no one would patch him through to you."

Of course he complained to Charles. Then again, it might be the frustration. "You shouldn't leave him standing outside Charles. Let him come in."

"Do we leave Mister Lawes?" One in the group asked.

Quincy smiled small, waving his hand. "Of course not. We finish this. He will wait." He turned to Charles. "Once I am in the livingroom Charles, inform my wife and Lucille. And have Mattilda watch Marvin."

    "Betty!" Nora yelled over the phone. "Lucille's about to have the baby." "What?!" "Wes called Nina five minutes ago and she just ran out." "Are you serious? Are you serious? You better be serious." "Why would I lie? She called for the plane and then she just left. Betty, she just left." Nora screamed in excitement. "This can't be happening." "Oh my goodness! Guys!" Betty called out to anyone and everyone around her. "Lucille..." "Deep breaths." Madison said, petting Lucille's hair. Lucille tried to obey. "Deep breaths." The pain caused Lucille to groan, and tears run down her cheeks. "Mom I'm scared." Madison swallowed air and blinked twice. She could see the fear. It made her scared too. "You'll be fine. You'll be okay. Nina's on her way. Your father's caught up at work, he'll be here later." "Where's Wes?" "He's right outside." "What about Nick? He said-" "Don't worry darling, don't worry, just breathe." Lucille nodded. Letti

    It took five minutes of uninterrupted driving before Nick noticed. "Was that frozen cake you were eating?" "It wasn't exactly frozen solid. But I yeah it was. And don't question it, I just really like cold food right now." He nodded. They were both seated in the back of his car, on their way to the hospital, but first to his office to put somethings in order. Which he somehow forgot to do. "Will you wait in the car? It wouldn't take too long." He said, getting out once the car reached the office building. "I've got to use the restroom." "Okay, yeah." They walked side by side only to be ambushed by a glaring Melanie before they could split off to their separate destinations. "What is this?" She asked when she was close enough. Making them stop. "Why are you here? Why is she here? What are you doing here?" She turned from Lucille to Nick and back to Lucille. "Is this why you missed work? To be with her?" Nick stood there. Saying and doing nothing. Mela

    Her shrieking almost hurt Lucille's ears. And then Geegee's when Nina called her to tell her what Lucille had told her. "My baby boy." Geegee laughed. In less than an hour they had both called and told everyone they could. Then Geegee called her back. "Madison was a little disappointed. She says daddy and I are just going to turn him on her like we did to Luce." Nina laughed. "I don't even know what that means. She always feels left out. And it's a boys, so he's going to be daddy's boy. And mine. Madison's used to spoiling girls. And it would be so much fun if my baby's a girl. I would spoil her silly." Geegee laughed. Enjoying Nina's rant about spoiling her unborn nephew. It was awkward just standing there. Looking at her with a sandwich in one hand and her other arm crossed. Her normal look turned into a glare. That was bound to happen. "What?" She sounded grumpy. Taking a bite of her sandwich. Nick could almost smile. She left him by the door. "I'm just waiting."

    "It's not clean." Lucille handed over a soapy fork back to the boy doing the dishes." "But I've scrubbed it like ten times." He whined."Not all the stains can be seen. With all the lather on it. Sometimes you've got to feel for them. See." She took his hand and grazed his fingers over the fork. "Yeah I get it. I feel it.""Exactly." She smiled. "What's the time?" She turned around. "Mrs. Hanney. What's the time please?" "8:23 pm.""I've got to go." "Oh Miss Lucille, you don't have to." Mrs Hanney said. It made her smile seeing the way she talked and laughed with the kids. They all loved her. Lucille tries to visit any orphanage she can at least once a month. "I'd love to. But I can't.""Thanks aunt Lucille." "No problem kiddo." She smiled. "I'll see you when I can." She gave him a side hug. "I'll go see the others before I leave." Lucille gripped the steering wheel on her drive there. Nervous and not sure how he would re

    Inaudible chatter and the subtle sound of cutlery scraping and hitting plates filled the large dinning hall. The table Nick had chosen was a bit hidden from the others. He sat relaxed in his chair, assessing her while she looked at the menu. He couldn't help thinking about how she fired that woman. She doesn't take mistakes lightly, clearly. He could also understand her reason. He smiled; she called him dangerous. The ice cold flame in her. He found out something new every time he met her. He'll have to be careful. Yet, poor Trish. Was that her name? "You didn't have to fire her you know." Lucille put down the menu. Tucking a stray strand of hair behind her ear. "If you feel that bad, you can hire her." He chuckled. He wasn't going to do that. "My place could use a bit more cleaning." "He tells jokes." She pointed out. "And laughs."He smiled. "Yes well, I prefer to leave the joking around to the CEO." "You mean your father?""Same thing." The waiter
