Skater Girl's by Renee Pollet (reading well .TXT) 📕

*Krissa*
So after the whole Parents-Come Back scenario, Krishten left for work and I left the twins with mom so me and Zane could go do some errands. I told mom about Zane being my fiance, and she totally squealed like a five year-old.
We then pulled into the parking lot of the laundromat to get our dry-cleaning. We quickly finished getting our dress clothes and went back in the car. Then Zane suddenly asked me, "Kris, why don't you ever talk to me about your parents?"
I faced the window and replied, "I don't know, it's just and uncomfortable subject. Mom and Dad just left, they gave no reason or location. They just went." I hardly ever talked about my parents to anyone. They abandoned me, i was 10! I just missed them and felt like they let me down.
Zane nodded then drove us to the house. I opened the door to be tackled by two little monsters. I ruffled Shane's hair and quickly got off the floor. My parents came into the view as Zane made his way into the kitchen with the twins. I turned to my dad and asked him, "Wanna tell me what happened to you?" My father nodded his head. "Okay then," I turned to the kitchen door. "Shane, Shylie! Nap Time!" Shane came bounding out of the kitchen with a sippy cup of milk in his hand that was half gone. Shylie walked into the room and held both her hands up after she gave me her sippy cup. I picked her up and walked up the stairs to the twin's room.
I opened the door and carried Shylie to the 5 foot gate that was a couple feet from the twin's beds. I had the gate built because once we got rid of the cribs they would always get out of bed and it would drive me crazy! I opened the gate and placed Shylie in her neon hot pink bed. Zane came in with a suprisingly dozing off Shane. He handed me Shane, and I put him in his neon electric blue bed. We shut and locked the gate and went downstairs after turning the baby monitor on.

Their Reason For Leaving

*Zane*
After we put the kids to bed for a nap, we slowly walked down the stairs. We strode into the living room where her parents sat on one of the two couches. Kris and me sat on the couch across from them, I grabbed Kris's hand and held it in my lap. She turned and smiled at me, then turned back to her parents with a serious expression. I just realized that we forgot to bring the twins to daycare. I guess they'll go tomorrow. just then her father began.
"Okay so here it goes, i moved away for your own safety. When I was your age, I was a bit of a delinquent. I was in a gang, I smoked, i stole, and of course i did drugs." He stopped to look at Kris. Her face was serious in concentration, listening completely to his story. "And then one day, I messed with the wrong people. When you were 10, they decided to get revenge on me. They threatened that if I didn't go to Japan, they would hurt you and Kay." Kris looked at her father with tear-filled eyes and jumped at him. She wound her arms around his neck and held onto him tightly. Her mother stood up and wrapped her arms around them both. I felt somewhat weird just sitting here, but oh well.
*Krissa*
I hugged my father for another minute then let go and sat back down beside Zane. "Dad, since your back, I thought I should get you caught up. This is Zane," I said grabbing Zane's hand. "And he is my fiance and the father of the twins."
"Well, you always seem to amaze me." My father said in a humorous voice. I giggled and leaned on Zane. We were in the middle of getting caught up when we heard some noises stirring from the twin's room. Oh boy, the twins were up.
I got up and walked upstairs to the twin's room and opened the door. Shane was standing at the gate entrance while Shylie was sitting on her bed just staring at him. I unlocked the gate and opened it up and Shane came rushing out. He hugged my legs then ran out the room. I giggled then went to get Shylie. She's not much of wake-up person. I picked her up and walked down the stairs.
Once we were in the living room, I set Shylie down.She walked over to my mom and sat in her lap. "Hey guys, wanna go to the park?" The twins jumped up and down in excitement. My parents and Zane nodded, so I went to the hall to get the twins' shoes. I quickly put shoes on them and grabbed my purse.

The Park

*Shylie*
I was so so happy when mommy brought grandpa and grandma over today, though I was kinda sad when we missed our first day of pre-school. Right now we're walking to the park, and I'm running with Shane ahead of them. Mommy said we could go play, and since daddy was sitting there with a funny look on his face, I pulled on his jeans to get his attention. Daddy looked down at me and smiled, I pulled his hand taking him with me to the swings on the other side of the playground. He pushed me and I decided to ask him.
"Daddy?" I waited until he looked at my face. "Why do you look so funny when you are around mommy's mommy and daddy. Where's your mommy and daddy?" He looked at me funny. He stopped pushing me on the swing and picked me up.
"Shylie, sweetie. My mommy and daddy are in the next town over, that's why I never bring you guys over. That and I'm not really accepted over there. They wanted me to be something I didn't wanna be, so I left. Did you know that I have a brother?" I shook my head no. "I do, two in fact." I smiled.
"Can we go see them today?" I asked daddy with a big smile on my face. He looked at me a moment and smiled back. "I'll see what I can do." was his answer. He went to mommy and they talked for a couple of minutes. So I went to go play with Shane. "Hey, hey, Shy!" I turned to him as he tried to get my attention. "Do you want to push me on the swing?" I nodded okay and pushed him for a little bit. I was beginning to get a bit thirsty so I went to mommy to see that she was packing up to leave.
*Krissa*
After about 20 minutes at the park, my parents decided to retire for the night. "Hey, Baby." I said to Zane as I pushed onto my tip toes and pressed a kiss to his lips. He had come to me from pushing Shy on the swing. He pulled us to the bench as we watched the twins play.
"Honey, Shy asked me the weirdest thing today. She asked me why I looked weird when I saw you and your parents." I watched him closely as he finished his sentence. He was probably remembering about his parents.
Apparently his parents wanted him to follow in his father's foot steps and become a doctor after graduating from Harvard. His mother and father had picked out jobs for each of their three sons. Zane's eldest brother, Zachary, was a CEO, just like his parents wished for. Zane's second eldest brother, Zedidiah, was a real estate agent, again chosen by their parents. But Zane didn't want to be a doctor, he wanted to teach service dogs.
Zane's voice brought me out of my thoughts, "And after she said that, and watching how your parents reacted to the kids, I kind of wanted to introduce the twins to my parents. I mean, my parents don't even know about them." I slapped his cheeks softly. He looked at me with such sadness in his eyes, I knew that he needed to show the kids to his family.
"Sweetie, stop babbling. Of course I understand. How about we call your parents up and see if we can come over today. It's only 2 o'clock, we have time today, and it seems you really want this and I'm fine, so calm down." He nodded and leaned into me so that his face was in the crook of my neck. It was times like this, when I questioned him being older than me.
"Mommy, mommy, mommy!" I turned a bit to see Shane running to me. "Shylie was pushing me on the swing, and then she wasn't looking anymore, and the the swing hit her, and then she flew, and then, and
