Only time could tell

Jenn’s POV

Half an hour later I was ready to start making waffles and I told Lindsey that she could go and get her mom and Sara. She ran up the stairs and opened the door. Minutes later Sara came down the stairs, she entered the kitchen and crabbed a mug from the cabinet and poured herself some coffee.

“So she didn’t catch you this time?”

She chuckled; “Thank God, no she didn’t. I wouldn’t know what to do if she did.”

I chuckled when I saw Sara’s face. She had to learn a lot about children, cause with Catherine you get Lindsey for free.

Catherine entered the kitchen minutes later, she was carrying Lindsey. I always wondered how long she would keep doing that, Lindsey is already nine. And she was defiantly too big to be carried around, but Catherine wanted her as close as possible. Catherine walked over to me and asked me whether I slept okay. I nodded my head and looked her in her eyes. Catherine placed Lindsey down on the counter and walked over to Sara.

Sara’s POV

She looks so great the way that she moves, with so much grace and perfection. And then there was Lindsey, she looked so much like Catherine. I knew that Catherine could never live without her and I also knew that I would give my life at any time to keep Lindsey save with her mother. They both stole my heart, Catherine did it a long time ago. But Lindsey managed to do the same thing to me in a couple of days. Catherine made me laugh when she entered the kitchen carrying Lindsey.

Lindsey had her arms wrapped around Catherine’s neck, she was standing next to Jenn and put Lindsey down on the counter. The moment that Catherine put Lindsey down she was stealing the first waffle that Jenn put down on one of the plates.

Catherine didn’t even notice it or maybe she didn’t want to notice it. She walked over to where I was standing and she did the exact same thing as a couple of days ago. She kissed me until I was only paying attention to the kiss and then she stole my mug of coffee again. She drank it empty and handed me back the mug while she smiled. She moved closer once again and started kissing me in my neck. I mumbled Lindsey’s name in her ear, and she stopped kissing me for a second.

“She has to get used to it sooner or later, it might as well be sooner.” And kissed me again. I heard Jenn say that the waffles where ready and she took Lindsey to the dining room. Catherine took my hand and pulled me behind her, we sat down at the table. We started eating, and we talked about some random things.

Lindsey, looked at her mother and then back at me. “Mom, is Sara going to stay here forever, even when she is all better?”

I guess that I turned pale, I was feeling nauseous. I didn’t expect this question so soon. I knew that it would come one day but I didn’t expect it to come so soon. I couldn’t answer that question. Yes I wanted Catherine and Lindsey to be a part of my life, but I don’t know if I was ready to show the world. I was afraid of the reactions of my co-workers, friends and acquaintances, and last but certainly not least the reaction of my family, my parents and brother.

“I don’t know Lindsey, let’s just see what happens, sweetie.”

“But you love each other, don’t you?”
