💬 0 🔁 3 ❤️ 2 · Flowai Family Fun Time!!(Part 1) · Authors Note: Hey Everyone! So I had this idea in my head for quite a while now. Its act
Erica's heart sank and the chewed up Tofurky slipped out of her mouth. Her family...her family were coming over...
It wasn't that Erica hated her extended family. Hate is a very strong word. It was just two family members that...kind of annoyed her.
Cousins Lavender and Rosary...
Lavender was older than Erica and more mature. She was beautiful and classy, with a upity look to match. Lavender was an "ideal" woman, high in a business career, sexy, and takes no shit... However, according to Erica, she always wasn't...nice. When Erica announced that she was Christian, Lavender...didn't take it well. Lavender is a high advocate for Flowaian spirituality. That included forms of witchcraft and ancestor worship. In fact, for the first few times she was in Erica's presence, tensions her high. Lavender would always bad talk on Erica's faith. It wasn't just religion that they disagreed on. Lavender would slick-talk on the way Erica dressed and how she behaved. Believing her to be a goody-two-shoes and afraid of her own culture.
Rosary was closer to Erica's age but a little older. When they were younger they were closer but as time went on, they began to drift apart. Once Rosary started to become more like a teenager, she didn't really have time for Erica as much as she used to. The girls started to "compete" with one another. That with being good with cheerleading, being excellent, and having a good relationship with the family, which Rosary was winning. Also, when Rosary's mom died, Erica tried to comfort her by trying to relate to her by her father who was incarcerated, but that actually made Rosary pretty upset! Rosary screamed at Erica due to death and incarceration being two different things! Erica didn't mean to, she was a kid, she didn't know any better. Rosary would just avoid Erica after that.
Erica would love to mend the relationships between her cousins, but right now it was too much.
Erica was in a daze, but she was quickly brought back due to Ivy.
"Erica? Ivy asked. Are you ok?"
Erica shook her head and snapped back to reality. "Yup, yup, I'm fine!" She responded.
After dinner everyone went their "separate" ways. Erica's mom and Scott went to their room, Ivy and Aislinn went to the living room to watch a documentary, Eris, Yarrow, and Rye went to the basement to handle..."things", and Erica went to her room.
It was just now summer vacation and she wanted it to be over already. Erica tried to be nice about it, but it was obviously going to be hell having "those two" over. Erica laid in her bed and began to think. If only there was "something" that could make the reunion more barrable...
That's it!
Caleb! Caleb can come over. Ivy and Yarrow brought their partners so its safe to say that Erica can bring hers right?! Plus, Caleb hasn't really met the family yet so this is perfect. Erica got up and went to her parents room to get the details of the reunion.
"Mom! Mom!" Erica exclaimed.
"Yes?" Erica's mom answered.
"Is it ok if my boyfriend comes to the reunion?! Please? You all never met him and I think its the best way! Please?"
Erica's mom pondered for a minute. Then she smiled. "Sure, but as long as his parents are okay with it."
Erica squealed. Part one of the plan was complete. Now to call Caleb for part two.
Erica was anxious. Each ring was more inducing than the last. Then finally Caleb picked up.
"Hello?" Caleb answered puffing. He clearly just got done working out.
"H..Hi babe!" Erica answered blushing. She liked Caleb's work out voice.
"So, what's up?"
"Um...Well...My family is having a reunion at my house and I was wondering if you...like to come?"
The silence was so loud. Erica then started to get scared. Then she heard something on the other end of the phone.
"Sorry babe, Caleb responded, Had to get some water, but I'd love to come over to meet your family!"
Erica smiled. She could finally have a buffer and spend some time with Caleb!
"Hey, real quick though..." Caleb asked.
"Oh! What is it?" Erica answered.
"Your family isn't going to make me do any weird witch spells or rituals right?"
"No...?"
"I mean its cool if they do it, I'm just saying."
"Nah its cool, I don't do witch stuff either, but I'm glad your coming!"
"Well thanks for inviting me, when is it by the way?"
Erica almost forgot. She put the phone on mute and yelled out, "Mommy? When is the reunion?"
"Next Monday through Friday, its all week!" Erica's mother yelled back.
"Thank you!"
Erica took the phone off mute and told Caleb the dates. Caleb and Erica soon said their goodbyes and smooches, and Erica played on her phone till she went to sleep.
She just hope everything was going to be ok...
