�Just five more minutes,� Michelle groaned, rolling onto her stomach.
�Make that five more hours. Mom and dad aren�t coming until three. It�s only eight in the morning right now,� Niki yawned, pulling the covers over her head after taking a glance at the clock.
Sighing, Bobby informed, �I just got a call from your mom. Your dad fell down the stairs and broke his leg. They won�t be able to make it.�
�WHAT!� Michelle and Niki yelled in unison as they popped out from underneath their covers.
�Oh my god, is he ok?� Michelle asked, as she grabbed her uncle by the collar.
�Why didn�t you tell us sooner? What are we gonna do?� Niki�s lip trembled, like she was about to cry.
�Will you girls calm down? He�s fine, he just has to sit in a wheelchair for a few weeks then he�ll be able to walk again,� Bobby assured, �Jessica and Vicki are making such a big deal out of it, they�re out booking tickets for our flight back right now.�
Widening her eyes, Niki asked, �Our flight? Are we all gonna go to NYC?�
Bobby nodded.
Michelle and Niki yelped happily and began jumping on their beds, rejoicing to the news of going back to visit their parents.

�I�m coming with you,� Louis said once Jessica told him the news of her father and how her family were going back to New York to visit him.
�But what about your job?� Jessica asked softly, holding her passport in her lap, �if you leave now you might lose your chance for another promotion.�
Louis slipped his arm around his fianc�s shoulder. Giving it a tight, reassuring squeeze, he said, �Nothing is more important than you. And kind of a son-in-law would I be if I don�t go visit my soon-to-be parents?�
�Thanks,� Jessica said, kissing Louis softly on the corner of his mouth.

�Is it cold in New York right now? Should I bring my mittens and scarf?� Alec asked as he pulled out a LV suitcase sitting on the top of the closet.
Vicki�s eyes were round and filled with surprise, �You�re coming with us?�
Alec answered Vicki�s question with a question of his own. �Do you think I�m gonna let you go without me? I heard horror stories about New York and I plan on being your body guard once we�re there.�
�Don�t forget I was born and raised there. It�s not as bad as people say it is,� Vicki defended, rolling her shirt into a ball then stuffing it into her suitcase.
�But I still have to go. What would you do without me?� Alec asked as he took out the shirt Vicki just shoved in her bag and refolded it neatly before putting it back in.
Vicki rolled her eyes and laughed at her Neat-Freak future husband.

�What�s the matter Michelle?� Bobby asked when he saw her slam down the receiver.
Michelle fumed as she crossed her arm over her chest, �Stupid assface moron isn�t picking up the phone.�
�Maybe he�s busy or something. Call his friends and ask them where he is,� Bobby suggested.
�I don�t wanna seem like a controlling girlfriend. But I swear if he�s cheating��
�Don�t say that!� Bobby cut in before Michelle could finish, �he�s not that type of guy.�
Making a fist, Michelle pounded it into the pillow sitting beside her, �You better hope you�re right or else...�

�There is no way I�m staying in Hong Kong while you�re half way around the world partying it up in New York,� Kevin stated affirmatively as he placed Niki�s clothes neatly into her suitcase.
She just sat there filing her nails, letting her boyfriend do the packing for her.
�I think someone�s turned into the green monster of jealousy,� Niki teased. She held out her hand in front of her face to examine her nails.
Kevin shrugged and replied bluntly, �I only learn from the best.�
�Shut up,� Niki pouted. She picked up a pair of sock and chucked it in Kevin�s direction.
�Seriously, I heard those darn New York boys were like vultures who likes to prey on innocent little girls like you.�
�Little girl?� Niki sprung up from her seat and lunged toward Kevin. She pinned him down on her bed and grinned evilly, �You know what this little girl is capable of?� Niki licked her lips and a devious grin emerged on her face.
�You wouldn�t,� Kevin challenged.
Growling devilishly, Niki replied, �Oh yes I would.�
With that said, Niki began poking wildly at Kevin�s side until he was laughing so hard he could no longer breathe.

�Oh hi, Michelle. Ron�s not home yet, maybe you should come back at six or so,� Sonija suggested after opening the door to find her brother�s girlfriend.
�I�m just here to drop off these DVD�s for him,� Michelle replied, holding out the movies Ron had lent her. There was a hint of disappointment in her voice.
Sonija nodded, opening the door wider to let Michelle walk through, �Oh, come on in. You can just drop them off in his room.�
Michelle smile gratefully and said, �Thanks.�
- - -
�No wonder he didn�t pick up, he left his damn cell phone at home,� Michelle murmured, picking up Ron�s cell, which was lying on top of his dusty CD player.
A vibrate rippled through the phone when Michelle was about to set it down. On impulse, she pressed send and held it to her ears, answering, �Hello.�
A young female voice coming from the other line replied, �Hello, uh, is Ron there?�
Michelle raised a suspicious eyebrow and said, �No he�s not here. But can I take a message?�
�Is this his sister?�
Exhaling impatiently, Michelle responded in a snobby tone, �No. This is his girlfriend. Can I take a message?� The phone went dead and the dial tone was heard immediately. The girl didn�t so much as utter a single word, making Michelle extremely suspicious.
Clicking onto his list of outgoing calls, Michelle gasp when she found out the amount of times he called someone named Tiffany exceeded the number of calls he called his her.
Normally, she would let Ron have all the space and freedom he needed, but today was different. She had to do some snooping to see what was up with this boyfriend of hers. Chucking the phone back to it�s original spot, Michelle stormed out his room.
�Bye Sonija.� She called as she helped herself out the door.
�Bye,� Sonija called back from the kitchen. She could feel trouble brewing for her brother.

Walking out of the hospital after her shift ended, Sonija turned around, responding to the call of her name. Her lips curved into a frown once she realized her ex was walking toward her, holding a bouquet of pink carnations. Being the polite person she is, Sonija was unable to walk away so she continued to stand in the exact spot waiting for him to approach her.
�Hey,� Derek said softly once he was standing face to face with Sonija.
�Hey,� she replied politely and coldly.
�How have you been?� He asked, flashing Sonija his most dashing smile that made her feel weak in the knees once upon a time.
Sonija wanted to slap this guy, but instead she answered, �Good. You?� Her voice was icy and disinterest was clearly present.
He lowered his head and said, �I�ve been miserable�I-I broke up with her. I finally realized I couldn�t live without you.� Derek held out the bouquet of carnations in front of Sonija, expecting her to break down and fall back into his arms.
Instead, she backed away and a laugh exited through her lips. �Are you kidding me?�
�Sonija, I�m sorry. I made a mistake. I didn�t mean to hurt you.�
Sonija could feel blood rush to her head, making her dizzy. �I�d hate to burst your bubble but a fake apology and a stupid bouquet of flowers is gonna make me fall back in love with you? Who do you think I am?�
Not being able to answer her question, Derek changed the subject. Hoping to rekindle that old flame, he said, �You used to love carnations, I never forgot that.�
�People change. I hate carnations now,� Sonija replied softly.
�What do you like? Roses? Lilies? You name it and I�ll buy it for you. I�ll buy you a diamond ring, and car, a house. Anything you want, please just forgive me!� Derek blurted.
Sonija shook her head in disgust. How did she ever fall in love with a guy like him?

Bobby had decided that he was ready to confess his feelings to Sonija. He drove to the hospital she was working at to pick her up from work. Walking into her workplace with a cute assortment of different colored daisies, Bobby walked out disappointed when one of her co-workers told him he had missed her. But his disappointment lifted once he walked outside to see her standing in the middle of the parking lot. Since a car was in the way, Bobby was unable to see Derek. He ran his finger through his hair, practiced smiling in one of the nearby windows and quickly made his way towards her.
- - -
�After all the years we have been together, you hardly know me at all. You�ve disappointed me so much.� Sonija said quietly, shaking her head.
�I remember now. You want a simple life. You want us to open a little clinic somewhere in a small town by the ocean. I can give you that. Just give me another chance. Please.� Derek begged, continuing to pull out all the tricks he learned about in the school of scum.
It was like fate had led Bobby to her. Her eyes darted over towards him, who was approaching her, carrying a bouquet of daisies. �Sorry. I have someone else who could give me all that.�
Sonija quickly ran to his side and interlocked her hands quickly into Bobby�s. He was caught off guard, but finally realized what was going on when he saw Derek.
�Sorry Derek,� Sonija said softly, �my new love is for daisies.�
She tugged on Bobby�s hand and they both turned into the other direction.
Derek was dumbstruck. He felt like the sky had fallen on him as he witnessed Sonija walk away hand in hand with another man, leaving him standing alone like an idiot.
- - -
Sonija quickly apologized once they were away from Derek. �I�m sorry, I didn�t mean to use you as a scapegoat.�
�That�s ok. I don�t mind.� Bobby said, grinning like a fool. Its not everyday he got to hold hands with the girl of his dreams.
�So who are theses daisies for?� Sonija asked, quickly changing the subject.
Taking his time to answer, Bobby scratched the back of his head and replied, �You.�
Her eyes widened with surprise as she asked, just to make cure she heard right, �What?�
�These are for you,� Bobby said, pushing the flowers into her direction.
Her lips parted slowly as she stared at Bobby in disbelief.
�The first time I met you, you made my heart stop beating like I just had eaten three pizzas by myself.� Bobby mentally kicked himself in the ass for saying something so stupid.
Sonija just had a blank expression on her face, showing no traces of emotions whatsoever.
�You know what? I�m suck at this sweet talk shit. I�m not like my nieces� stupid boyfriends and their stupid mushy speeches. I�m just gonna tell you straight up,� Bobby paused for a moment to catch his breath.
If it was possible, Sonija looked even more confused than before.
Bobby finally blurted, �I like you. I know you might not feel the same way and I don�t expect you to. I just want to tell you this before I go to New York so I wont have to wonder all the time. I like you, but judging from your expression, I know you don�t feel the same way, so to make things less awkward for you, I�m gonna shut my eyes and let you walk away without feeling bad.�
Bobby did just what he said. He closed his eyes and waited for Sonija to walk away. Bobby could hear the sound of dissipating footsteps a couple seconds after he closed his eyes. He felt stupid. He knew Sonija didn�t like him, but he felt like he needed to tell her to get those feelings off his chest.
�Oh well, at least now I know how she feels��
Bobby�s eyes jerked open when he felt a sudden brush against his cheek. Touching the spot the Sonija had just kissed him, Bobby asked stupidly, �I thought you left.�
�I�m not leaving without you,� Sonija said grabbing Bobby�s hand. �That was the best speech I heard in my life. Lets see Louis, Alec, Kevin, or my brother beat that.�

�I would die if she found out,� Ron said to an attractive girl in her mid twenties sitting across from him.
The girl grinned slyly and replied, �She�s not gonna find out is she?�
___________________________________________________________
Holding the phone between his shoulder and ear, Bobby tried to talk to Sonija while folding clothes into his duffel bad at the same time.
�I�m gonna miss you like crazy,� he whined as he stuffed his boxers to the side of the bag.
Sonija couldn�t hold back a grin as she replied, �That�s the tenth time you�ve said that. Kinda getting repetitive don�t you think?�
�You know you love it��
A voice suddenly emerged from behind Bobby, which caught him off guard almost making him drop his cell phone. Lucky for him he had quick reflexes.
�Omigod girls. I think uncle Bob found someone!�
No doubt about it, Niki was eavesdropping on his conversation again. When she finds out about something, it doesn�t take long for the others to find out. So in less than a second, Bobby was swarmed by all four of the sisters, who were all expecting juicy news.
Hearing the commotion from the other end, Sonija smiled and said, �So I�m guessing you haven�t told your nieces about us huh? I�ll let you guys have some time alone.�
Bobby growled after hearing the �click� on the other line.
�Have I ever done anything to you? Why must you always spoil my special moments?� Bobby grumbled, glaring evilly at his youngest niece.
She retorted, �It serves you right for not telling us. And I knew something was up when you left the house with a bunch of daisies. My suspicions where confirmed when you came home all giddy.�
�So who�s the unlucky girl?� Michelle added, flashing her uncle a teethy smile.
Bobby turned his attention back to his packing, hoping that they would get off his back if he changed the subject, �None of your business. Isnt it past your bedtime?�
�It�s Sonija isn�t!� Jessica blurted loudly, �I knew it!�
Bobby raised his hand and surrendered, �Ok ok. It is her. Now will you all please let me pack in peace?�
�AWWWW!� All four sisters yelled.
�We�re really happy for you!� Vicki stated on behalf of her sisters.
Bobby rolled his eyes and answered, �Thanks, now will you please leave and let me continuing packing? Our flight is at six in the morning you know?�
�Night, uncle Bob. Don�t drool when you dream of aunt Sonija.� Niki grinned and winked as she closed the doors behind her.
Bobby smiled and shook his head once his four nieces were all out of site. Although those girls were like pesky flies always buzzing around him, they were also his little rays on sunshine.

Jessica, Vicki, and Niki gathered around Michelle, who was slumped down on her bed with her safety blanket wrapper around her legs and her pillow pulled close to her chest. It was obvious that Michelle had spilled the news about Ron cheating on her to her sisters judging from the deadly expressions on their faces.
�Do you think it�s Tiffany Lam from the forensic department? If it is, we can tell Vicki to poison her,� Niki growled, pounding her fist against her other hand.
The only reaction Michelle showed was a blank stare. She was so confused and refused to believe he was cheating on her, but the evidence she found clearly told her think otherwise.
Suddenly changing her mind, Niki said, �I don�t think Ron�s a cheater, he�s so�stoic. It�s hard to believe someone as dense as him could cheat.� She hoped her different point of view would be able to comfort Michelle..
Jessica added, �Sonija taught him well. She would not approve him cheating.� She gave Michelle�s hand an encouraging squeeze.
�Yes, and not to mention that if he did cheat on you, he�ll have four feisty women on his ass in a matter of seconds.� Niki blurted, jabbing her index finger reassuringly on Michelle�s thigh, �He�s smarter than that. You picked a good man.�
�But all men is capable of cheating,� Vicki suddenly blurted, � I mean, I didn�t think Vic would��
�I don�t wanna talk or think about this anymore. I�ll deal with him after we return from New York,� Michelle finally said. She slouched down on her bed, pretending to fall asleep.
Jessica and Niki each gave Michelle a quick pat on the arm before they left the room, leaving Vicki alone to talk to her.
�Listen sweetie. I don�t think Ron is anything like Vic, but I want you to be mentally prepared if we�re wrong about him,� she said softly, �I don�t want you hurt like I was.�
Giving Michelle a kiss on the forehead, Vicki tucked in her sister like she used to when they were little.
�Listen to your heart,� was the last piece of advice she gave to her little sister before she turned out the lights.
A solitary tear slipped from the corner of Michelle�s eye once Vicki had left the room. It wasn�t a tear of sorrow, instead, it was a happy tear. Michelle was thankful to have such a wonderful family. No one was capable of hurting her if her sisters were there to support her.
