It had taken a few hours but Lena had convinced her Mother to go out to dinner and a movie. There was the usual fight of 'You'll do something stupid like fall back in love with the bastard' when it came to the subject of Brian being back in town. With one less adult in the house and her shower complete Lena was putting the final touches of lasagna, salad, fresh rolls and the promise of ice cream for desert. Noah was to be having pasta too only well cooked spirals in just a bit of sauce as well as small bits of the roll and mushy broccoli. Everything was just about ready including Jenny who was babbling away in the living room while coloring as Lena attempted to put on make-up in the hall mirror.
"Yes, Brian is bringing the dog." Lena replied as she swiped the fluffy brush with apricot colored blush over her cheeks. "Mmhmm... but you can't climb on him anymore you're to big sweetie." Lena informed Jenny as she moved onto mascara followed by a berry colored lip stain. It wasn't much but she hoped it was enough to make her look fresh and not like the exhausted mess she felt like.
There were a lot of mixed feelings with Brian back in town. The constant rocking back and forth between wanting to do her own investigation into the mob as to contract his death to glad her son will have an opportunity to spend some time with his Father followed by some longing for the man she had offered her heart up to. Then the cycle would repeat and she'd be thinking of many ways to contract a murder. Thankfully the cyclical thinking was brought to an end by the familiar sound of the door beell followed by the squeal of a delighted Jenny running to open up to let in Brian and more importantly to the 8 year old the large happy dog she missed.
