He agreed and grabbed Moe out the tub so she could be left alone.

Zymeir trailed behind Zinnia, watching as she shopped
and talked to Moriah. "Mhm, Ari's coming and you guys can play."

"Yay!" He said excitedly "Ari like yellow. I wear yellow?"

"You wanna wear yellow?" She asked him standing on her tippy toes to grab cookies. He answered with a 'yess' bringing a smile to her face "Okay. I'm going to ask Ari's mom if she can wear yellow too. So you two can match."

"Okayy." His attention went back to his iPad that was show casting a learning game.

"Baby, do you- what's wrong?" She frowned when she seen the flat look on his face. He shook his head but she wasn't falling for that. "I know it's something. Do you wanna talk about it later?"

"Yea, thats coo'." He spoke looking at her. She reached her hand out to him and he gladly took it, stepping beside her.

"Always and forever." She said before giving him a quick kiss on his jaw line.

He smiled faintly looking at the love of his life. She was so amazing. A true angel.

"And-and Lita ate lunch with me." Moe spoke to his mom, telling her how Isidra came to eat lunch with him at school yesterday.

"I knowww, did you enjoy it?" Zinnia asked in a sweet voice, picking up ripe bananas and gently placed them in the cart.

"Yess," he smiled showing his teeth "Lita doesn't talk to me a lot, she type." He looked at his parents a little sad.

They looked at each wondering how to explain why she does such. Of course they knew it was because she wasn't fluent in English and when her kids were around she could just translate what she wanted to say. But without them it could be difficult.

"Thats because Lita isn't from here. You know how Da and Lita teach you how to speak Spanish?" Zymeir asked, looking at his son.

"Hola!" Moe nodded.

"Exactly. Lita speaks Spanish more than English; how we talk. But she wants to talk to you so she uses her phone to help." Zymeir farther explained trying to make sure Moriah understood.

"Ohh. Sorry."  A small pout formed in his lips.

"You didn't do anything wrong. Lita just needs a little help, sometimes."

Moe now understood "Okay. "

Zinnia smiled watching the conversation "Momma needs to learn Spanish."

Zymeir looked at her "Tell momma, she can't get mad when da has her repeat things." He said slickly thinking about it.

"No! Because I feel like you be trying to be funny."

"I'on be acting funny towards you, Bae." He wrapped his arms around her waist.

"I truly think you do, you taught me how to say where can I find someone who speaks English?-"

"Es, ¿dónde puedo encontrar a alguien que habla inglés?" He unintentionally cut her off, giving the translation.

"Exactly, and I was good to go, you had me sit there and repeat that for about two minutes. Two minutes."

He sighed, "I wanted you to remember."

"I know, but babe...that was excessive."

"Eres tan dramático, no sé lo que voy a hacer cuando envejecemos." (You so dramatic, I don't know what I'm going to do when we get old.)  Speaking lowly to himself he thought about his statement and kissed her lips. "Mi amor." (My love.)
