Bob: so, how are you, possum?

Erin: I don’t know dad...Some days...it’s just too much. And I’m so worried about Robin. She’s angry all the time. And she thinks I’m the enemy.

Bob: She’s a teenager, possum. Of course she is angry. She is lost. But you, better than anyone, knows what she’s going through. Let her know that you understand.

Erin: but how?

Bob: just...one day at a time. Little by little.

Erin: Thank you, dad.

Bob: I love you, possum.

And the family reunites for Harvestfest :)

The Mansfields’ house

Last post today I promise! (so sorry for the spam!) Today I did a little makeover of the Mansfields house (you can see the original here)! The inside is exactly the same, but I decided the outside it didn’t really go with the new Hollyoaks style, so I tweaked it a little.

All the houses in this street will have a raised front yard, just like the Mansfields’ house. I’ve been meaning to do something like this for a long time, and I’m happy with the way it turned out...what do you think?

BOB: Here we are!

Erin: here?

KENDRA: Erin...you’re looking at your clinic!

ERIN: WHAT?!

KENDRA: Dinner is ready!!!

((chatter))

PS: I’m super proud because I got them all to sit and have dinner at the same time. If you’re wondering where Robin is, she had dinner earlier with the other kids (i.e. her brothers).

Time to open some presents!

And Kendra gathers everyone for a very special present...

KENDRA: Jack, Erin...we have a special present for you this year.

KENDRA: Isn’t that right, Nene?

NENE: Yes, we wanted to do something nice for you this year...Actually Kendra did. It was all her idea.

KENDRA: Grab your coats and your car keys and follow me!  Cam, Charly, will you watch the kids? It will be good practice for you two!

((soundtrack))

ERIN: ((sobbing)) Thanks so much!!

KENDRA: Come here!

JACK: But mom...you don’t...

NENE: Shhhh... I consider this an investment...I literally put my last dollar into this, so no pressure guys.

JACK: Thanks so much mom. Merry Winterfest.

NENE: Merry Winterfest, Jacky.

Erin tells everything to her father. He reminds her that he knows what’s like to struggle financially but also encourages her to think outside the box: if there’s no other vet clinic to work for in the area...perhaps she should open her own practice?
