A Different Way To Finding Each Other

Snapped

"Yeah I do," Addison replied as Robert came over with the triplets. Addison's eyes grew wide and her mouth hung open. "They are so white looking."

"And here's the video," Lena replied. Callie's room had a ton of Panda stuff.

"I'm sorry," she replied. "I just."

"Don't apologize, but I believe Abigail likes the Red Pandas which are different," Lena replied.

In the end, Matthew picked the Panther, Max picked the Cheetah, Caleb picked the tiger, Callum picked the Lion, Callie picked The Giant Panda Bear, Lexi picked the Monkey and the other kids in Timothy's class picked a different animal each.

They all went to eat at the Zoo cafe and each kid got a free kid's meal that came with a double hamburger or double cheeseburger, french fries, banana and drink and a cookie and the toy was a wind up zoo animal.

The adults got free combos and they picked between a double hamburger, cheeseburger or fish burger or veggie and it came with french fries and salad with a drink.

"Mama can we get soda?" Callie asked as she batted her eyelashes and stuck out her lip. Lena caved. "Two refills and that's it."

"Thanks mama," Callie replied. Callie and her brothers cheered as Lena rolled her eyes.

The Zoo field trip concluded and they all went home. "Callie why did you get this?" Stef asked of the bucket of Zoo animals. "You have one."

"For Jack mommy," Callie replied. "He didn't get to come."

"I will take and give it to him in a month," she replied.

"What did he do now?" AJ asked.

"He um," Lena replied.

"Ditch school? He did that last time we went on a field trip and mom didn't care."

"He did," Stef replied as she bit her lip.

"Yup. He's getting off," AJ replied. "It happened already and you basically let him get a holiday."

"Well not anymore," Stef replied as her oldest son rolled his eyes and she can not blame him.

"So if I were too ditch? I won't get in trouble?" Callie asked in a joke. 

"Callie Elizabeth!" Stef snapped which was a first sign she needed help.

"I was just joking," she replied. Stef closed her eyes and nodded.

Jack was found by Captain Robert's and brought home. "Where was he!?" Dana asked.

"Coming out of the cemetery," she replied.

Dana hugged him hard and he figured he was going to get out of trouble or so she thought.

"WHERE IS HE?" Stef asked.

"His room," Dana replied.

"EVERYONE LEAVE NOW!" she replied as her parents, her in-laws, Nate and Papa Thomas left. Lena was the only one that knew Jack was getting spanked. 

They were all at the library and in a huge room as Papa Thomas went to a recliner and sat down, while the rest of the adults went to read and the kids got books on their animals they picked. The three oldest did their Zoo packets from class, which was more of a survey and they had to do it on a Zoo animal.

In Jack's room, Stef counted to ten. "You are punished for one month! No playrooms, no TV, computer or movies. Just school and home. Kitchen duty as well as your chores and extra ones and your toy chest will be in mine and mama's room for a month and no play time outside either!"

"And no movie pick for you tonight. It goes to me."

"But mommy," Jack pleaded confused.

"That's it and you are getting spanked."

"No mommy," he replied as she walked over to him, got him and put him over his knee and spanked him five times on his bare bottom as he cried and she hugged him after.

"Not again. Ever!" she replied. "Do you understand?"

"Yes I understand."

A few days later was Friday and not Robert's weekend with the triplets. Dana had Matthew, Max and Jack since it was planned, while Mike had the twins and AJ was with his friend, Andrew Boyle and his family for the weekend. So it was just Lena and the triplets and Stef. Dana could not leave anywhere since Jack was punished. She felt bad for the little twins and let Nate take them somewhere well Jack stayed at home.

"MOMMY! WE DREW YOU SOMETHING EACH!" Caleb replied. "I drew and colored a Tiger."'

"And I drew and colored a Lion," Callum replied.

"And I drew and colored a Panda. We even drew and colored pictures for mama too," Callie replied. Stef's head was pounding as all she heard her kids talking a mile a minute and it was getting to the blonde. They were even drew and colored Robert pictures too. 

"Mommy did you hear us?" Caleb asked as she snapped in her half.

"SHUT THE HELL UP! YOU THREE ARE TRYING MY PATIENCE!"

The three were confused as they started to cry and she got more mad and upset. She never yelled at them or sad bad words either. 

"Why are you three crying? Do you you three want something to cry about? I will give you three something to cry about," Stef replied as she undid her belt and held it high as the triplets screamed.

"NO MOMMY! PLEASE!" they cried confused as Lena ran out of the kitchen and her mouth hung opened and her eyes grew wide. "STEPHANIE MARIE ADAMS FOSTER! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?"

Stef was brought back to reality as she eyed her triplets in a corner and she dropped her belt to the floor. The three were screaming and they remembered the time they were hit in daycare when they were two years old. Stef eyed their confused and hurt eyes. The same eyes of her wife who were confused and hurt.

"Mommy didn't mean it baby triplets," Stef replied as they ran up to the master bedroom as they slammed the door. Stef eyed her wife and ran from the home. 

"STEF. BABE!" Lena replied as she called Mike, Armando and Frank as well as Nate. 

Lena went to deal with her triplets as they would be confused and hurt. "Baby bugs?"

They came out of the master bedroom as she hugged them hard and called Robert.

Now it is day three and now Stef and Frank blamed himself. Lena had warned them all and no one could have predicted this.

Mike eyed the park that him and Stef played at as kids and saw her on a bench.

They both hugged. "I almost used my belt on them."

"Get help!" he replied. "For you, for the triplets for all of them."

She nodded and Mike took her as Captain Roberts signed her in as Lena and Stef hugged since she was there too.

"I'm sorry," Stef replied.

"We are fine. And we will handle this together," Lena said. Her wife wiped her tears and her wife's. "The triplets?"

"With Robert."

Stef nodded as she left. 

At the mansion, "Daddy why did mommy try to hurt us?" 

"Um she's not feeling well. But she will get help and she didn't mean it."

The three nodded as they left to the park near him.
