Generation 1: Chapter 5 – Green genes

Not long after Dahlia was born i started working in the garden again. Buck still helped me out where ever i needed it then he didnt want me to overwork myself. At first it was very hard for me leaving the bedroom where Dahlia was sleeping but i wanted to farm again so i opened the window a bit so i could hear her from the garden if she was screaming.

I was a bit afraid because my Mother wont take the phone when i was calling her lately so i asked Buck to go pick her up for me.
“Mother!,” i said gladly, “I have some great news for you. Please come and see your first granddaughter.”
“Not so fast my dear,” she said, “I cant go faster, we just discovered that you are getting a younger sibling.”
“Im so happy for you Mother, you always wanted more kids.”

“She is a sweet pie my dear, but look at you dear, you look like you could use some sleep, the first pregnancy is hard. Take some rest ill watch over my little granddaughter until Buck comes home again.”
“Thank you Mother,” i said and got in bed. I fall asleep as soon as i lay down, knowing everything was alright.
Daffodil took up Dahlia: “My little sweet pie, i hope you, your mother and you siblings will never find out what i know about the Brokes.

As soon as Buck came home Mother left again. They never really talk with each other, its nearly like they are avoiding something. Buck had worked hard that night and gotten the last possible promotion at the Mausoleum. But he also turned 50 that night, not that you could se it on him.

I got the message that i had gotten a little sister, and they named her Winter because she was born in a cold month. We had to celebrate an other birthday too. It seemed like yesterday that i had given birth to Dahlia. She grew up, and her hair had started showing. It was green just like mine, and she definitely had my green eyes to.

I was also pregnant again. I didnt knew before i felt the first kick inside my tummy. It must be a boy Buck laughed with all that kicking. And i hope he was right. I always wanted to have both a girl and a boy. It was long before we found out then my water broke a night not long after when Buck was at work.

The birth was much easier this time i wasnt afraid and the little one came to this world without any problems. It was a boy and we had decided to name him Ashton. Ashton skin was green like mine and his eyes also, and even if I could be wrong im sure that I saw some green hair on his head too.

We had bought an other crib so there was a place for everybody to sleep. I adored my two children. They where the love of my life, as so was Buck. We where one little happy family. I couldnt wish for more. The only ones who wasnt really happy where Mother and Father, even though they should be. I was happily married and had two healthy children. And Derreck my dear brother had fallen in love with little Susie Broke, Bucks daughter.
