"Miss Florence I had no idea you lived here", Lily Rose stated in admiration. " You are the most beautiful woman I have ever met", Lina continued and Mabel groaned frustrated.
" Yeah and she's my mom who is not supposed to be in the circle", Mabel said referring to the fact that they were in a circle on the floor, sitting down and her mom was literally in the middle, how did it even get to this?
Megan chuckled at Mabel's childishness. The girls had gone crazy from seeing Florence Cee. Turned out, Mabel's mom was almost every one of them fashion model.
" Oh yeah that's true I'm supposed to be cooking dinner", Flore stated and chuckled softly. " Mrs Cee you are gonna make dinner, I can't wait to taste your cooking", Chloe said gracefully and Flore chuckled at her cuteness.
" Well that's sad because now my Mom can't cook, she's gonna go take a nap", Mabel said very straight but the girls weren't ready to let Flore leave, this was their fashion hipster, they visited her company twice a week.
" It's just 7:30 and we all want to taste Mrs Cee cooking and she's willing", Lily Rose defended smiling coyly at Mabel's mom who gladly returned it.
" Well Mabel's mom had a crazy day at work and she's tired, that's why Mabel wants her to take a nap besides we have a to-do list for our sleepover, am sure we can cook up something", Megan said coming to Mabel's rescue. She wondered why Mabel never liked letting her mom in with friends.
" That's fine we can just see you tomorrow morning", Lyra being the most sensible spoke and though the others were still reluntact to let Flore leave they had to nod in acceptance with Lyra's idea.
" Tomorrow morning. That reminds me, why are you guys in my house?", Flore stood up finally realizing she had gotten carried away by the attention given.
Mabel quickly stood up afterwards and pushed her mom to a corner before the girls drove her mom crazy with their explanation, jeez luis as much as Flore was their fashion model, Flore was also her birth mother.
" What's going on Mabel?", Flore asked taking the initiative and Mabel stared at the girls who were lost in their own world now before staring at her mom. " What do they mean by sleepover? as much as I can remember you said it was just you and Megan", Flore asked once again and Mabel sighed tiredly.
" Well I made plans tomorrow, I'm getting married", Mabel said but soon realized that wasn't one way to start but before she could retrieve her words, Flore's distressed voice came, " What?".
" Not like actually getting married it's just a fake wedding mom, made by my friends, I'm hanging out with people", she said in a soft calming voice but it didn't calm Flore down at all.
" And where's this play happening Mabel? Oh my God fake wedding are you for real right now? Weddings are not something to be played with, it's an occasion where two people come together promising to spend the rest of their lives with each other not some high school teenager's toy, what even brought this idea?", Flore asked panicked stricken that her daughter could involve in this.
" Not what, who? My friend's cousin is around and he loves putting crazy ideas, well he's not going to be around for much longer so everyone is just doing what he wants before he leaves, you can rest assured that this won't have any effect on my future I promise", Mabel stared into her mom's brown orbs which had started to relax their tense muscles.
" You know right now I feel like calling this thing off?", Flore asked out of the blue and Mabel held her breath in place. " But I know that you barely made any lasting friend since childhood and it's all thanks to Megan you're getting to live a normal teenage life and I don't wanna be in the way of that. So I'm gonna let you do this, have fun okay", Flore said with a lot of relunctance but reasoning and Mabel went ahead to hug her.
" Thanks for being understanding mom", she said snuggling Flore like she was still a baby and Flore smiled as well.
