"Uncle Gee! Uncle Mikey!" two other voices called.
"Cherry! Lily!" Gerard said. "I haven't seen you girls in ages."
"Frank!" another voice called.
It was Jamia.

"Go on, Frank." Helena said to him. "You can go talk to her."
"Ok then." he said.
He then walked over to his ex-wife.
"Frank," Jamia said. "How's it been?"
"Bitter without you." he confirmed. "You're lucky I was able to move on."
"With her?"
"Yes, with her. Helena's been through alot of crap and-"
"Helena? That's her name."
"Yes. And she's been through a bunch of crap, including crap with Korse. Can you at least pretend to like her? For the girls' sake?"
"I suppose."
The door opened and Grace, Ray and Jess entered.
"I better go catch up with Ray," Feank continued. "Why don't you get a drink at the bar? Mikey's girlfriend is working there."
"Fine."
The two then parted ways.

"Guys," Ray stated. "This is Jess, my new girlfriend. Jess, this is the gang."
"Hello." Jess said.
"Hey." they all said.
"So," Jess continued. "which one of ye guys is this party for?"

"Oh, congradulations. Who's th' lucky gerl?"
"She meeting with some friends in the living room. Her name's Heather."
"She's soonds like a charmer."
"She is. Let me go get her."
Gerard then left.
"I'm Mikey." Mikey continued flirtatiously. "I'm Gerard's brother and Heather's future brother-in-law."
"Whoa cool it there, bro." Ray interrupted. "You have a girlfriend. Quit trying to take mine."
"An' where's yer girl 'en, Mikey?" Jess asked.
"She's the bartender for the party." he answered. "Her name's Mercedes."
"Well ain't ye loocky to have a girl to make ye drinks when ever you want 'en, huh?"
"Yep."
"I'm Helena." Helena continued. "And this is my husband, Frank."
"So you're th' lucky coople wit th' pair of twin boys?"
"Yep. Jr. and Bert."
"Here she is." Gerard said re-entering the room with Heather.
"Heather, this is Jess, Ray's girlfriend. She came here from Scotland-"
"So you're th' lucky bride-to-be?" Jess asked.
"Yes, I am." Heather said. "And it's so nice to meet you. Why don't you, Helena, and I go over to the bar and meet Sedes?"
"Sure. Soonds guid." Jess said.

The girls then left for the bar.
