~~Anger~~

Delilah slipped on her shoes just in time as she heard knocking on the door "Faith, it's your grandma! Open the door" Lilah called out grabbing her jacket and bag "Okay mom!" Faith yelled rushing down stairs. 

"Grandma!" Faith yelled hugging her grandmother, "Oh, hi sweetie" Maria smiled hugging back her eldest granddaughter before pulling away to close the door "Where's your mom and sister?" Maria asked 

"Right here" Delilah smiled walking down the stairs with Hope beside her "Gran!" Hope rushed forward to hug her grandma "Hi honey, how are you?" Maria asked "I'm good" Hope smiled 

"Oh look at you two" Maria looked at their hair, a bright smile on her face "You girls look beautiful" 

"Thank you!" The twins smiled at their grandmother "Girls" they turned to Delilah was standing near the stairs "Why don't you get your jackets, it's a little cold outside" The twins nodded and rushed upstairs 

Maria smiled at Delilah  

"Hello Lilah" 

"Hi Maria" 

The two hug tightly "It's good to see you again" Delilah muttered, the last time they saw each other was at Elijah funeral. It's nice to see her when grief and guilt wasn't crushing her heart making her want to cry and scream at the same time "So am I" Maria muttered back before pulling away 

"How are you holding up?" 

Delilah shrugged tucking her hair behind her ear "I'm doing okay. The girls and I had a girl day yesterday" Maria smiled looking at her hair "Yes I see. You and the girls look beautiful" 

"Thank you" Delilah shrugged on her leather jacket. She was wearing a black dress that reached her knees and flared out, black leggings, black ankle boots and a white leather jacket. The four of them were going out for lunch and ice cream  

"We're ready!" The twins ran back downstairs "Alright" Lilah grabbed her keys "Let's go" 

~~~

Delilah and Maria were sitting down on a bench at the park, eating ice cream and watching the twins play as they talk "So, how are things back home?" Delilah asked her, taking a spoon full of her Oreo ice cream "There good... The town held a ceremony for Elijah" Delilah pressed her lips nodding. Maria seeing her change of mood decided to change the subject, it's apparent Delilah doesn't want to talk about Elijah just yet 

"You should come visit with the girls. Crystal and James miss the girls and I miss having you around" Maria really did miss having her and the girls around, it's why she came to often but she wished they could visit her. Delilah must have seen this because she offered Maria a smile 

"I'll ask to get some vacation time off next month" Delilah told her making Maria smile. Delilah phone buzzed, she frowned when she saw it was a text from Garcia
