Father's Day

Sunday, June 16, 2013

Sephy and I made the trip to the Northern Cave today. Did you know Jenova’s just a head, cuz I as sure didn’t! Way to keep me in the dark. Sephy tells me she, it wasn’t always just a head. He cut its head off and brought the freaking thing here. And he calls himself its son.

So now I’ve held up my end of the bargain and I can go the rest of my life without coming back here, so I guess that’s a plus.

Father’s day was spent at my parent’s house. Aranel cooked, the boys gave Sephy and my dad their Father’s day presents. All of which where hand made cuz we’re kind of spent after Loz’s birthday and all the home remedies Sephiroth cooked up trying to cure his poison ivy. I think Aranel helped them out with their gifts while I wasn’t looking, but I have no real proof of that.

After dinner I had to spend half an hour listening to my sister and husband argue over him not being able to do dishes. And she wonders why we eat out all the time.

“So has Izzy asked you to be her maid of honor yet,” I ask Aranel.

“Right after I told her double wedding was out of the question. Vincent maybe full of surprises, but Rude doesn’t always get the hint.”

“Cloud did say he was kind of bad at the whole dating thing.”

“That’s only the half of it,” she says. “Reno had to explain that I was trying to seduce him. And then the guy gets all flustered.”

“Guess you’re taking it slow then,” I laugh.

“If by slow you mean stand still then yeah.”

I just shake my head. From the one time I met him and what Cloud and Zack tell me, Rude is pretty naive. You couldn’t guess by looking at him, but he is.

“I’d say that’s a good thing though,” I tell her. “Let the crazy kids have their shot gun weddings. Not everyone has to rush to the alter ya’ know.”

She just glares at me. I love how they’re all acting like the end of the world is coming or something. Although with Sephy you never really know.

“Getting off the subject of marriage and guys, what are your plains for tomorrow,” I ask.

“Whole lot of nothing,” Aranel answers, “Why?”

“Cloud and Zack got that house down the street. Wondering if you wanted to help ‘em move?”

“Izzy and Vincent roped in?”

“Yeah,” I say, “Did you really think Izzy was going to say no to helping decorate?”

“You mean completely redo the house?”

“Yeah I don’t think Cloud’s going to let her take lead on this one,” I inform her. “He’s inner home decorator has really come out lately, from what Zack tells me.”

“Why am I not surprised,” Aranel asked.

“Cuz he spent most of both Yazoo and Loz’s parties striating picture frames,” I laugh.

Aranel shakes her head. We had both called this from a mile away. Once those two hooked up Cloud really came out.

“He’s going to make a great mom,” Aranel and I say together. We both laugh, mainly cuz we know no matter how out Cloud gets… he can still kick Sephy ass into next Tuesday. Oh the irony.
