After greeting her father Cyndi walked over to where her mother was, Tasha was brining out covered dishes for the BBQ that consisted of dishes native to Klavor as well as some from Earth just in case the grandkids didn’t like the native dishes.

“Mum we need to talk about my daughter,” Cyndi said

“Is she okay?” Tasha asked

“She’s fine, but she’s told me and Paul you’re pressuring her for things regarding her eventual position as Queen. Mum you’ve got to back off. I was raised here, she wasn’t. I’ll teach her what she needs to know.”

“Cyndi I haven’t been,” Tasha said “I just want to spend time with both of the kids, It’s been three years since you’ve all been here.”

“I know and Starfleet has kept me busy, let Piper be a teenager, same with Brent. It will be at least fifty years before Piper will have to rule here and for me at least twenty if not more. In the meantime let Paul and I raise them and teach them what they’ll need to know and what is expected of them,” Cyndi said “I’ve never disobeyed you or dad but when it comes to my kids I ask you to respect Paul and mine’s wishes.”

Tasha nodded “I’m sorry Cyndi your right. It’s just when your father and I received word your ship had been destroyed every emotion went through us. When I got word you, Paul and the kids were fine I was so happy and when you came ahead of your husband and kids. You were a basket case; I’d never seen you cry so hard. All I wanted to do then was protect the four of you.”

“I understand and I love you for it, we’re here for a visit and some relaxation while my new ship is getting readied. Where Piper and Brent are concerned, spend time with them get to know them both, you and dad. Let me worry about teaching them what is expected of them. I was raised here they have been raised in Starfleet. Show them some of the paintings you do. Show them what your working on, maybe take them ridding, dad can take them fishing, or out on his boat and I don’t mean the Royal Yacht, I mean dad’s canoe, or his speedboat. Go water-skiing like you both taught me,” Cyndi replied “Have fun with them.”

“We’ll do that, and I promise to let you and Paul teach them what they need to know,” Tasha said hugging her daughter “I do have two horses I’d like to give them,”

“That’s fine, they do know how to ride,” Cyndi replied “I’m going back to Paul and the kids.”

“I’ll come with you and no mention of duties.” Tasha said

“That’s all I ask mum,” Cyndi responded as they walked back over to where Paul ad Drew were,
