"Lolo, who's at the door?"
Milo still stood there with a blank expression on his face.
"Milo honey. Aren't you going to let me in?" Leslie chucked as he moved aside letting her into the house. Anya was standing in the kitchen opening a jar of pickles before looking in their direction she scrunched up her face a little bit noticed that the woman and Milo had similar facial features.
"Baby.. This is my aunt Leslie, aunt Leslie this is my girlfriend Anya."
"She's beautiful, nice to meet you. Milo talks about you all the time." She smiled embracing her into a hug.
"It's nice meeting you too." She smiled before looking over at Milo who had lost the color in his face, he blinked a few times as the initial shock went away.
"You ok baby?" She said popping the rest of her pickle into her mouth before putting the jar back into the refrigerator.
"I'm good. Aunt Les, you wanna go grab some food with us?"
"I'd love to. I'm starving, the flight was long and drive here was even longer." She chuckled lightly before sitting her bag on the living room floor.
"This is a nice place you got here nephew. Your mother and father would be so proud." She smiled thinking of her late sister.
"I know auntie. Let's get out of here, gotta feed my babies."
"Baby's?" Leslie questioned putting two and two together. "Oh my goodness! Congratulations! You didn't tell me she was pregnant."
Surpriseeee! That was Zane causing Milo to chuckle a little.
"I wanted it to be a surprise." He lied.. He wasn't planning on making it known until later on in the pregnancy.
"Well I surly am surprised. I brought you something by the way.. I'll show you when we get back from dinner." She said walking over to the rental car which was a white BMW.
Leslie worked as a accountant firm in Richmond and made good money doing it. She was happy to have a few days off of work and missed her nephew dearly.
Anya and Milo got into Anya's car since Milo still didn't have a new one. He closed the door and sighed before starting the engine and pulling off down the street.

"You ok?"
He licked his lips and furrowed his eyebrows. "Lemme ask you something."
"Ok."
"The fight at the pool. Did it scare you?"
"No.. I mean a little only because I had never seen that side of you.. It wasn't even you. It was Seven."
He inhaled sharply and rubbed his forehead. "Did he say anything to you?"
"That he was sorry about the way he talked to me and that he didn't always like change when it came to you. Why?" She asked as he glanced over at her before making a turn at the light.
"I'm just asking.."
"You're nervous about her being her Lo..I can tell."
"How can you tell?"
"You keep rubbing your hands against your pants, your forehead creased with wrinkles as you started driving, and when she hugged me all the color left your face. Is she mean?"
"What? no she's not mean at all. She just reminds me of my mom and I'm having a hard time processing that she's here-" He paused staring at the steering wheel before putting the car in park and cutting the engine.
He switched so quick that she didn't even notice. "What are we doing here bae?." He ask before putting his hand on her thigh.
"Jax..Your aunt Leslie is here visiting.. She said she brought something to show you but she'd give it to you later.
"Aw hell." He said shaking his head. "Damn she ain't even call a nigga."
"I guess not.." Anya said unlocking the door and getting out.
Just relax...Don't start panicking. That was Sai trying to comfort a now nervous Jaxon.
Getting out of the car he grabbed Anya's hand, she lifted it up to her mouth and kissed his knuckles which started to calm him down.
"It smells good out here and we aren't even inside yet." Leslie said as they shared a laugh.
"Yeah Vinnie's is our favorite spot to get pizza from." Jaxon said as they entered the resturant.
Leslie wasn't too familiar with his diagnosis of DID but she had done enough research to know his demeanor had changed.
"I can't wait to try it. What do you normally get?"
"I usually get the pizza and pasta special. The alfredo is my favorite." Anya smiled as they sat at the table.

"And you Lo?"
"I usually get the same thing but I might try something different this time." He said grabbing the menu.
After taking their orders and making small talk their food was brought out to them.
"So what are you studying Anya?"
"Cognitive Phycology.. the study of the mind, I also want to help people who struggle with mental disorders."
Leslie smiled a little. "That's amazing you seem like a very caring person."
"Thank you, I really care about Milo too." She said as Jaxon looking up from his phone at the mention of Milo's name, he wasn't really engaged in the conversation since he was playing Tangled Ninja and let them have their moment.
After eating their food and Leslie paying their table they headed back to the apartment, after showing the changing clothes Anya said goodnight to them before going into the room.
"Here you go Milo." She smiled passing him the old photo album before sitting beside him. Anya had fallen asleep so they were the only two awake.
"Open it." She said as he smiled a little, opening the first page he saw a picture of him as a baby and then a picture of him, his mother, and father a little after he was born.
He cleared his throat and sniffled because this was the first time in a while he'd seen these photos.
"I held onto this for you.. Only because I knew you'd want those memories. I know your mother and father did things to you in the past that caused you a lot of heartache but always know that they loved you so much." She said wiping her now watering eyes.
He nodded and continued turning the pages until he stopped at a picture of him when he was maybe 3 or 4 years old, he laughed a little at the picture.
"My head big as hell."
"No it wasn't. You had just got done crying because your mom took your bear away so we could get these pictures done." Leslie chuckled as he raised his eyebrows.
"You were there?"
"Yeah, she begged me to come because she didn't think you'd behave with just her there. Your father had been working late so I didn't really have a choice. We had so much fun that day." She smiled as he flipping on last page seeing them all together in a family photo, he closed the book shut before tossing it on to the coffee table and standing up.
"What's wrong Lo?"
He leaned down and kissed the top of her head. "I'm not mad at you... I promise... I just need some time to process everything. How long are you planning on staying?" He asked grabbing a blanket and two pillows from the closet before sitting them on the couch, he heard the bathroom door close the knew Ayna was awake.
"Well I took two weeks off but I can stay for a week.. If you want me to, this is your home and I don't want to intrude-" She paused as he waved her off.
"Nah, you can stay... I'm not gonna put out like Nana and PawPaw did that one time you came to Christmas dinner high." He said as they shared a laugh.
"We said we weren't going to discuss that." She said raising her eyebrows before laughing again.
Anya had come into the living room and laid her head on his arm.
"I'm sorry honey did we wake you?" Leslie questioned putting her hair into a bun.
"No, you're ok. Just had to use the restroom. Did you take your medicine Lolo?"
"Nah. I'm about to go take it now." He said as Leslie stood up to hug them both.
"You two get some sleep, I'll take you guys out to do some shopping tomorrow for the baby and yourselves since I have a little money to blow."
"You don't have-
"Nonsense it's the least I could do since I didn't call before showing up... Oh! What happened to your
car?"
"Got into an accident... wait I know you're not about to-"
"Nephew... let me do this one thing for you. Ok?"
Milo looked at Anya who's eyes grew wide. "Mrs. Leslie are you sure I mean-"
"I'm sure darling. You won't even have to worry about the payments."
"Woah. Thanks auntie."
"I love you guys."
"We love you too." Milo said as he and Anya went into the bedroom to sleep.
Leslie smiled to herself knowing that she was doing right but her late sister and spoiling her nephew like she used to.
