Okay Okay! here is another update.
"Dustin? Where are you? You were supposed to be here half an hour ago! What no not again! This is supposed to be YOUR weekend with your daughter!!! I dont care if your girlfriend doesnt like it we agreed on this when we got divorced remember?? No this is really inconsiderate of you!! Maybe i had plans this weekend! No my parents are out of town this weekend and Treena has to work at the studio! You know what fine! I'll keep her AGAIN this weekend but YOU have to explain to her why her daddy doesnt want to see her!" Amanda says. "Hey Bri can you come here a minute? Daddy has something to say to you." "Ok mommy!" Bri said and came running over to take the phone. "Hi daddy! Where are you? I thought we were going to spend the weekend together. What? why not? Oh, I see," she said crestfallen. "it's ok another weekend this just means I get to spend more time with mommy!YAY!" she said. "ok daddy I love you too. Here mommy daddy wants to talk to you again. May i go play some more?" "Sure honey, just remember to stay within sight." Amanda said. Bri ran off and Amanda put the phone to her ear again."What?" she said. "Yeah I know you appreciate this but you need to start spending some more time with your daughter ok? Bye." she said and then hung up the phone. Ryan, meanwhile was sitting there and heard the entire conversation."Is everything ok?" he asked "You seem a little upset." "I'll be fine." she said "I just wish my ex-husband would be more considerate sometimes." "and I'm sorry but I dont think I will be able to go out with you tonight.""I'm sorry to hear that maybe another night." he said. "yeah, maybe." she agreed "by the way, i heard you say that Treena has to work in the studio this weekend. May I ask what she does? "Oh! I'm sorry I thought Keith had told you already. Treena runs a dance studio." Amanda said"Wow that sounds interesting."he said. By that time, Treena had seen that Amanda was upset and her and Keith came over to see if everything was ok.

Alright guys here is more for ya! enjoy! "Hey Mandy is everything ok? You seem kinda upset." Treena asked. "No everything is not alright! Dustin is being a jerk again!" Amanda exclaimed. "Uh oh what did he do now?" asked Keith. "He cant take Bri AGAIN this weekend cause his girlfriend has decided that she didn't like him spending time with HIS daughter and not with her! I hate it when he does that! Its not only not fair to me, its not fair to his daughter either! For all he knew I might have had plans this weekend!" Amanda said. By this time, She had become so agitates that she got up from the bench and started pacing back and forth. "Did you have plans this weekend?" Keith asked. "No but thats entirely besides the point! He didnt think about what I might have been doing he was just being his usual inconsiderate self?" Amanda replied. "Well Mandy I can take Bri for the weekend for you if you want. And please sit back down my neck is starting to hurt from watching you pace." Treena offered. "I really appreciate the offer sis but doesnt your studio have a recital coming up soon?" asked Amanda as she sat back down. "Yeah we do but I dont have to be there for every rehearsal just the major ones like the dress rehearsal. That's the beauty of being the owner. They can call me if they need me for something and if I have to go in, I can always take Bri with me." replied Treena."Besides, you deserve a weekend off. Lord knows you dont get them enough because of your jerk of an ex-husband." "Well if Bri wants to go with you, then I don't mind." Amanda said. "Bri, honey can you come over here a minute? Mommy has a question for you." "Ok mommy!" Bri said and ran over to where everyone was sitting. "Bri how would you feel about spending the weekend with Aunt Treena at her house? You don't have to if you don't want to but your Aunt would love to spend some quality time with you." Amanda asked. "Yeah Bri it will be lots and lots of fun if you do come over!" Treena said. Bri thought about it for a minute then asked "Will Unca Keith be there too?" "I dont know honey you will have to ask him" replied Amanda. "Ok Unca Keith will you be over at Aunte Treena's house too?" "Well sweetie if your aunt doesnt mind and if you would like me too then sure." Keith replies. "Keith, love, you know you are always welcom at my house." Treena said. "So what do you say Bri? Want to spend the weekend with me at my house or stay with mommy?" Bri thinks about it some more then says "Ok Aunt Treena I"ll spend the weekend with you!" "Well then what do you say we go back home and pack some things for you and Aunt Treena can meet us there?" said Amanda. "Ok mommy." said Bri.Now, in her agitation and the resulting conversation with Trenna and Keith Amanda had completely forgotten that Ryan was still sitting next to herso when she went to stand up again she saw him out of the corner of her eye and jumped about a mile. "Oh my goodness Ryan! I completly forgot you were there,you were so quiet! I"m so sorry I ignored you!" Amanda exclaims. "Thats ok love you were a little upset and distracted I understand." Ryan assures her. "Well now that you are free tobnight how about that date?" he asked. Amanda thought about it for a second then says "Sure sound like fun. But do you mind if I go home first and get Bri ready for her Aunt's house and I get changed as well?" "That's fine love take your time. shall I pick you at about say 730?" Ryan replied "730 sounds good. Here is my address and phone number just in case you need to call me before." said Amanda. They parted ways after that, both looking forward to the evening ahead. Meanwhile, Keith and Treena had been talking as well and Keith agreed to come over to Treena's house for dinner. After a sweet romantic kiss, they parted ways as well, also looking forward to there evening. Hope you guys enjoyed this! Will post more soon have to writ it first though!

Mandy! I'm so going to love babysitting my little niece and having Keith over for Dinner! By the way my best dish is Lassagna! But instead of using a red sauce I use a Mushroom,Garlic,Threecheese Alfredo Sauce. Plus My mom use to use a Large Boboleo Pizza Shell and brush it with olive oil,sprinkle itallian spices on it and put good Mozzarella cheese on top and put it in under the broiler. we would have that instead of Garlic bread. The rest of the evening to come is up to you!

At Amanda's house, Bri was sitting on the toilet seat lid watching her mom get ready for her date. "Are you ok mommy?" Bri asked. "I'mok honey I'm just a little nervous about tonight." Amanda replies. "Why are you nervous mommy?" Bri asked. "I'm nrevous because this is the first date I have been on since your daddy and I split up." Amanda replied as she finished strightening her hair and started putting her makeup on. Just then, the doorbell rang. "I think your Aunt Treena is here. Will you go get the door for me please honey?" Amanda asked. "Ok mommy!" Bri said and ran to answer the door. "Hi Aunt Treena!" Bri said as she opened the door. "Hi sweetie! Where's your mom?" Treena asked as she walked into the house. "She is in the bathroom putting her makeup on." Bri replied as she closed the door. Hey Mandy do you need any help picking an outfit or anything?" Treena asked as she walked down the hall. "No thanks sis I'm just about ready." Amanda replies as she walkes out of the bathroom. "Wow sis! You look amazing! Ryan is gonna love that outfit!" Treena exclaimed. Amanda was wearing a pair of jeans with black knee-high boots over them and a sky-blue halter top. She had also straightend her hair and put on makeup and wore a gold butterfly necklace. "Do you really think I look okay?" Amanda asked nervously. "Mommy I think you look beautiful." Bri said. "Thanks you guys I really appreciate that." Amanda replies. "Bri honey do you have everything you need for the weekend?" Amanda asked. "I think so mommy." Bri replied. "Well lets go make sure before you leave." Amanda said. As they were heading to Bri's room, the doorbell rang again. A glance at the clock showed that it was exactly 730. "wow he is prompt. I really like that.." Amanda thought to herself. "I'll get the door for you. You go make sure Bri has everything she needs ok?" Treena said. Amanda nodded her head yes and went into Bri's room and Treena went to the front door. As Treena opened the door, she saw Ryan standing there looking very handsome wearing a pair of black slacks, black shoes, and a short-sleeved emerald green v-necked shirt. "hey Ryan come on in and may I say that you look very handsome tonight." Treena said and stepped back to allow Ryan to enter. "Thank you Treena. Is Amanda ready?" Ryan replies as he enters the house. "She is with Bri making sure Bri has everything ready for the weekend> Would you like to sit down?" Treena says and when he nods his head yes, she leads him to the living room. On the way to the living room, Ryan gets a chance to see some of the house. It's a small 3 bedroom house but it has very welcoming homey feel to it. Along the walls are pictures of Bri when she was a baby and up and also pictures of Bri and Amanda. Ryan also notices that there are some empty spaces on the walls were there used to be pictures but were taken down. He guesses that those were pictures of Bri's dad and when he assked Treena, she nodded her head yes and told him that any pictures of Bri and her dad are in Bri's room. By this time they have reached the living room and take a seat on the couch there. "So Ryan I know that you are an honest trustworthy guy cause Keith vouched for you but I have to say something. If you break my big sisters heart, I WILL hurt you. I don't care if you are keith's friend, nobody hurts my sister. She has been through enough heartbreak as it is. You got it?" Treena said after they sat down. "I understand where you are coming from Treena but please understand that I have no intention of ever hurting your sister." Ryan replies. Just as Treena was about to reply, Amanda csalls out "Hey Treena, Ryan where are you guys?" Treena responds "We are in the living room!" "Ok!" says Amanda and by that time she had reached the doorway. As she entered the room Ryan stood up and Amanda said "Hey Ryan I'm sorry for any grief Treena gave you. she can be a little overprotective sometimes." When Ryan didnt respond, Amanda looked at him and saw him just staring at her with his mouth hanging open. "I told you that would happen!" Treena said. "Ryan hellllooo?" Amanda says as she waves her hand in front of his face and snaps her fingers. Ryan finally came to and said "I'm sorry love I was distracted by how beautiful you look tonight!." Amanda blushed replied "Why thank you Ryan and may I say you are looking very handsome yourself. You ready to go?" When Ryan nods his head yes, Amanda goes and grabs her keys, purse and jacket and gives Bri a kiss goodbye and tells her to be good for her Aunt Treena and together they walk out of the house and Amanda locks the door after Treena and Bri walk oputside then they head to Ryan's car. "Bye! Have fun!" Treena calls from the porch then her and Bri head to Treena's car to go to her house for the weekend.
