For Trini, to be now standing in the living room of her nearly empty apartment felt surreal to her.
Over the course of the last ten days, she went from being a jilted bride, having her heart being broken further from her ex-fiancé when he revealed that he intends to marry Vivian and revealed that he didn't love her to her heart being slowly healed thanks to an unexpected phone conversation with Jason. Trini closed her eyes and allowed a single tear to roll down her cheek as she's mentally prepared to close her chapter in Boston and knew that the next chapter in her life will happen when she returns to Angel Grove.
The movers came in and took all of her furniture out of her apartment and now all of her things are being shipped out. She has every intention of moving back into her childhood home since her parents has decided not to sell it; since they're now living in Seattle, Washington, they wanted to make sure that their only child will have a place to live once she arrived back in Angel Grove. Trini was forever grateful to her parents for keeping their home intact for her to live in.
Furthermore, she has a new position lined up at Johnson, Parker and Smith, LLC; a smaller, but prestigious law firm in San Diego. It'll only take her about an hour and a half to commute from Angel Grove to San Diego, but she was fortunate enough to be able to find work at another law firm a lot sooner than she thought.
And with her impressive resume; not to mention a glowing recommendation from her former bosses, she knew she had it right in the bag.
Running her fingers through her long dark hair, she continued pondering about her future in silence when Kim walked in; holding her cell phone against her ear and was apparently talking to someone. Trini broke out of her trance long enough to watch her best friend conversing with the person on the other line.
"Yeah, we're on our way to the airport, honey. I know, I'm doing the best I can to be there for her. She's hurting right now, however, she'll be okay. I know she can't wait to see you guys again. Yeah. I know. Well, how's Hannah doing? She's being a good girl for her daddy? Aw, our little helper. Well, listen, we're on our way to the airport and we should be home no later than tomorrow. We have two flights to catch, so when we land in Chicago, we'll get a hotel room for the night. I love you, too, Tommy. Bye, bye," she said before she ended the call. She stuffed her phone into her purse just as Trini approached her slowly.
"Everything's okay?" the pretty Asian asked, causing Kim to look up at her.
"Yeah, everything's fine. Hannah's been helping Tommy with the chores. Uh, he's gonna pick us up at the airport once we land back in California, if you don't mind?" Kim suggesting, looking a little bit sheepish.
"That's okay. Be warned, though; I do have a lot of luggage to carry. It's a good thing I'm moving back into my old home," Trini chuckled softly.
"And you say my wardrobe was out of control," Kim laughed as they started heading towards the door. Just then, Trini stopped in her tracks.
"I forgot something very important. It's in my bedroom. Let me go get it and we're out of here," she said as she turned on her heel and dashed right towards the bedroom, running right inside to find what she was looking for.
She looked around for a second before her brown eyes landed on her beloved doll, the infamous Mr. Ticklesneezer, sitting on top of the vanity mirror. Breathing a sigh of relief and mentally kicking herself for almost leaving him behind, she promptly grabbed him and held him close to her chest, cradling him as if he was a newborn baby.
Trini was on her way out of the room when something else got her attention. Something shiny that was blinding her eyes. Upon close inspection, she quickly recognized the piece of jewelry Russell gave her on one of their many dates together; to show his appreciation for giving him a chance for them to be romantically involved.
It was a beautiful gold heart pendent; with the pictures of them right inside, smiling brightly and looking so happy.
Picking it up and holding it in her hand for a moment, she felt another tear rolling down her cheek as she let out a bated breath. Try as she might to block it out of her head, there's no escaping the happier times she shared with her ex-fiancé; the special moments they shared together a part of her will always cherish.
"Trini! Are you coming?! The cab's downstairs!" Kim called out to her, causing the original yellow ranger to snap out of her trance.
Sighing deeply, she placed the pendent back down on the mantle, having no use for it anymore. Looking around her empty bedroom one more time, she silently said farewell before returning to the living room.
"Are you okay, hon? Did you find what you're looking for?" Kim asked as she watched Trini clutched Mr. Ticklesneezer close to her chest.
"Yeah. I almost forgot about Mr. Ticklesneezer. He was sitting on top of the vanity mirror. I'm ready to go," Trini replied, letting a tainted smile form on her lips.
Kim reached over and wrapped her arm around Trini's shoulders and planted a kiss on her cheek. "Hey, everything's gonna be okay. You're just closing one chapter in your life. It's time for you to write a new one."
"You're right, Pinkie. Let's get out of here," Trini agreed as they headed out the door. She stopped in her tracks long enough to look at her empty apartment one more time. Another tear fell from her eye as she finally closed the door and began walking through the hallway.
Goodbye, Boston. It's been nice knowing you, she thought as she finally disappeared from view.
Angel Grove, here she comes.

"Hey, baby, can you put the bowl of potato salad on the dining room table for me?" Tanya Sloan-Park asked her husband as she carried a tray of lasagna into the dining room. Her husband of one year, Adam, was right behind her, holding a bowl of potato salad in his arms.
"I'm right behind you, Tay. Man, I never knew planning a party for someone can be such hard work," he huffed as he sat the bowl down on the table.
She looked at him with a smile on her face. "Well, it's not everyday that a member of the power ranger family moves back home. I wonder what made Trini decide to return to Angel Grove in the first place."
He reached over and wrapped his arms around her, kissing her forehead gently. "Whatever it is, I'm sure she has her reasons. When she's ready to tell us, all we can do is be there for her."
"I guess you're right, hon. Well, come on, let's continue putting the food on the table. I have a feeling no one's gonna go home with an empty stomach," she replied before she reached up and pecked him on his lips.
Man, I'll be glad when all of this is over, Adam thought as he followed his wife back into the kitchen.
Meanwhile, in the living room, Rocky DeSantos and Zack Taylor were busy putting the 'Welcome Home, Trini!' banner up on the ceiling while their wives Aisha Campbell-DeSantos and Angela Young-Taylor were blowing up balloons using the helium tank. Jason was out running some last minute errands while Tommy was heading to the airport to pick up Trini and Kim, who were slated to land any minute. The three couples were surprised when Jason called them and told them that Trini was planning on moving back to Angel Grove and he wanted to make her homecoming a one she'll never forget. Because they were all rangers and pretty much family, they didn't hesitate to drop everything and commute to Angel Grove from their respective living arrangements to do this for their fellow comrade.
However, Billy and Katherine Hillard-Cranston won't be able to make it due to their hectic work schedules, but they promised to visit them during the holiday season because they missed everyone back home. They also send their regards towards Trini and vows to get in touch with her when they have the chance.
"Man, I'm so happy we have the helium take to blow up the balloons. I think I'd pass out if I had to blow them up using my own breath," Aisha said, rolling her eyes in annoyance.
Angela nodded her head as she blew up another balloon. "I hear you, girl. I'd end up in the hospital."
"Aw, come on, girls. It can't be all that bad," Rocky said as he stepped down from the ladder. He inadvertently stepped on one of them, causing everyone to shriek out in fear when it popped.
"Damn it, Rocky! Learn to watch where you're going. You nearly gave me a heart attack!" Aisha screamed, placing her hand over her chest and breathing heavily.
"I just stepped on a balloon, Ish. You guys act like you all got shot or something," Rocky replied, rolling his eyes.
"No, dude, more like a bomb went off when you stepped on it. Even I got freaked out," Zack said as he stepped down the ladder and went over to where Angela was standing and wrapped his arms around her.
"Well, I'm sorry, guys. I didn't mean to freak you all out," Rocky replied, looking contrite. Aisha, feeling bad for her husband, got up off the sofa and walked right over to him, kicking several balloons out of the way and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"I'm sorry for snapping at you like that, Ape boy. Truth be told, I think we have enough balloons to use, don't you think?" she asked, laying her forehead against his.
Rocky couldn't help but smile. His mama bear always knew how to cheer him up.
"Yeah, you're right, mamacita. Let's start putting these up," he replied as he leaned over and kissed her softly. Adam and Tanya showed up in the living room, holding hands, a few minutes later.
"Hey, is everything okay in here? I heard something go off," Tanya asked, looking around to see if anyone was hurt.
Aisha smiled softly when she and Rocky pulled part. "Everything's fine, Tanya. Rocky accidently stepped on a balloon and it popped, causing all of us to freak out for a moment. I came down on him kinda hard, but everything's under control. We're just about to put these balloons up; seeing that we have enough."
"Yeah, we can see that," Adam chuckled softly.
"Anyway, the food smells good in the dining room. What did you two cook?" Zack asked, the wonderful aroma of lasagna engulfing his nose.
"Lasagna, potato salad and some asparagus I roasted in the oven. I had Adam grilled some porterhouse steaks outside; seeing that the weather is hot and for dessert, brownie a la mode," Tanya listed off as if it was nothing new to her.
"Man, I can't wait. I'm hungry," Rocky said, his stomach grumbling with anticipation.
Aisha shook her head and laughed. "You're always hungry, Ape boy."
"It's true. Rocko here can eat like a horse. His appetite for food is never-ending," Adam laughed softly, causing everyone else in the room laugh right along with him.
"Yeah, yeah, laugh it up, everyone. Y'all remember that the next time I decide to make dinner for you. You didn't have a problem with my appetite when I made that big pan of baked ziti," Rocky reminded them, causing everyone else in the room to suddenly go quiet.
Just then, Jason walked through the front door a few minutes later; having just ended his conversation with whoever he was talking to on his cell phone. Soon as he walked in the living room, he found all different colors of balloons scattered all over the floor, the welcome home banner hanging perfectly up over their heads and the wonderful smell of food engulfing his nose.
Needless to say, his friends came through for him.
"You guys really went all out, huh?" he asked, smiling brightly.
"Yeah, well, our little saber-toothed tiger is coming home and thanks to you calling us, we had to make sure everything was in order, that's all," Zack replied, patting his 'bro' on his broad shoulder.
"Well, I really appreciate it, guys. By the way, I just got off the phone with Tommy. Trini and Kim's plane has just landed and they should be on their way here soon," Jason announced, grinning foolishly.
"Dude, if I didn't know any better, I'd say that you're more excited than all of us about seeing her again," Rocky teased, causing Aisha to drill her elbow into his stomach.
"Well, maybe I am. She's going though something right now and she needs us to be there for her. I'm not gonna break confidence by telling you what it is, though. I'd rather have her tell you herself. I will say that her heart's a little bit fragile," Jason explained, looking a little bit somber.
"Don't worry about, Jase. We're all here for her. We're all here for each other. I'm just sad that Billy and Kat couldn't be here, but we all know they have busy lives in Sydney," Adam jumped in, looking a little bit sad.
"Yeah, me, too. Well, let's not dwell on this any longer. Come on, we have finish up because they're gonna be here soon," Jason said, trying to cheer everyone up.
And, with that being said, everyone got back to work.
Trini's homecoming party was gonna successful if her friends have anything to say about it.

"Russ, honey, I was thinking we should hire a six piece orchestra for our wedding. And instead of having a church wedding, why don't we have it at the country club? Seeing that you're a senior member there, they can't say no to you," Vivian Huang, his fiancee suggested as she walked into the living room and sat down next to him on the sofa, holding a bridal magazine in her hands.
He sighed deeply and closed his eyes. "I think we should go ahead and elope, Viv. I already spent so much money on my last one, and we all know how that went down with Trini. I just don't want to go through that again."
She rolled her eyes and sat her magazine down on the coffee table. "I don't need you to remind me about your last wedding. I don't want her name to haunt us, Russ. And why in the hell would you want to elope, anyway? This is supposed to be my day!"
He looked at her, his eyes narrowed at her. "Because I don't want to go through any more drama concerning hiring another wedding planner, another caterer, a big piece band; not to mention, a lot of the same people may not come to our wedding because of what happened the last time. So, I figure, why don't we just fly to Las Vegas and elope? It's legal and we don't have to worry about getting a drug test. Furthermore, I just want to be with you. Is that so hard to ask, Viv?"
Vivian grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and yanked him close to where their faces are just a couple inches apart. "Listen to me, honey, and listen good. Most of my family are flying in from Hong Kong to attend our wedding. I have my sorority sisters as my bridesmaids and you still have your business associates as your groomsmen; not to mention your best friend from high school is your best man. I don't want to fly to Vegas and elope because that's tacky and I'm a classy lady who wants classy things. And what I want is a wedding. You, my darling husband to be, will make sure that happens. And if I hear that bitch's name one more time, you and I are gonna have some serious problems in the long run. Do I make myself clear?!"
"Crystal," Russell conceded, his blood boiling, but somehow managed to keep it under control.
She released his collar and pecked him on his lips quickly. "I'm glad we have an understanding about this. Now, with that being said, I still want our wedding at the country club and I want that orchestra to play at our wedding. Make it happen."
She got up from the sofa and walked out of the room, leaving him to slowly realize that karma has started knocking on his door. And she was waiting to come in.
Non of this would be happening if you had just married Trini, you stupid ass. She was the best thing that ever happened to you and what did you do? Threw it all away for Vivian. Karma's knocking at your door and she's waiting to bite you in the ass, an inner voice in his head said. Sighing deeply, he got up and went to the kitchen to get something to drink. He failed to notice that Vivian was coming down the stairs and had a steely, stoic look on her face.
I'm gonna make sure that Trini bitch won't be standing in my way. I think I'm gonna pay her a visit in California and let her know I mean business. Russell is mine; always have and always will be!

"It feels so good to be back where I belong," Trini said, smiling softly.
Tommy smiled right back as he pulled up into the driveway of Adam and Tanya's home. "It's good have you back home with us as well, Tri."
"I agree with my husband here. It's good to have you back hon. I hope you don't mind that we ended up here. The Parks invited us to have dinner with them and you know I can never turn down Tanya's fabulous cooking," Kim beamed as she watched her man killed the engine to their vehicle and all three of them got out of the car.
"What about Rocky, honey? He's a professional chef, after all," Tommy reminded her as they made their way up on the front porch.
"Oh, don't get me wrong, he's a great chef, but Tanya knows how to throw down in the kitchen. I'm surprised she's not in the culinary industry herself," Kim replied as they reached the front door.
"Well, her first love is music. She finally got her record deal after graduating and she's been recording non stop since. Even when she was working at the radio station, she managed to squeeze in some studio time. And, with Aisha helping her out with song-writing, her first two albums has been amazing," Tommy explained, smiling brightly as he reached over and rang the doorbell.
"Guys, I'm a little nervous about seeing the guys again," Trini said, her nerves bubbling in the pit of her stomach.
Kim reached over and rubbed her best friend's shoulder gently. "Don't worry about it, honey. Everything's gonna be okay. We all missed you very much and they can't wait to see you again."
"Are you sure?" Trini asked, still a little bit unsure.
Tommy looked over his shoulder and winked at her. "We're sure, Tiger. You have nothing to worry about."
Just then, the door opened and Adam appeared, having a huge smile on his face. "Hey, guys. You're just in time. Everyone's in the dining room."
"Hey Adam. Something smells good," Kim beamed as she, Tommy and Trini all stepped inside. The door was closed a second later as they stepped further inside the living room and quickly noticed the color coordinated streamers, the balloons and the huge banner hanging from the ceiling. Trini instantly had tears in her brown eyes. She couldn't believe her friends went all out for her.
"Is everything okay, Trini? Do you like it?" Adam asked softly as he approached her slowly. She wiped her tear stained face with her hands and laughed softly.
"Oh, no, I'm fine. And I love it. You guys didn't have to do this," she replied, sniffing softly.
"No, we didn't have to do this, Tri. We wanted to do this. Welcome home, Tiger," Jason said, coming out of the dining room with Angela, Zack, Rocky and Aisha trailing right behind him.
Without warning and shocking everyone in the room, she ran right over to him and wrapped her arms around his neck, burying her face in the crook of his neck and had the biggest smile on her face. After getting over his initial shock for a second, he wrapped his arms around her and gave her the biggest, best bear hug he ever delivered. He buried his face in her gorgeous dark tresses and inhaled her beautiful lavender scent, which engulfed his nose. He could go to sleep with that scent for the rest of his life if he wanted to.
The rest of the gang just stood there and watched the original red and yellow rangers embrace and reunite, with enormous smiles on their faces.
It was so good to finally be home again.
