"Your dad has Saffy right now," Tudor adds.
"You guys have a kid together? How cute!" Gabby croons.
Emily falls silent immediately. "Oh. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to pry."

"Yea we do, Dad has her. HEr name is Saphrina or Saffy."
"It is okay. Just not something that best told here. Put it this way a friend directed us to Chriss's stepmom for help." Jayla says,

Gabby glances over to their dad. "Awww, Carrie, she's precious!"
"Oh, honey," Brenda gasps.
Lewis shifts nervously from foot to foot, remembering what it took to get them out.

"Are You guys planning to stay in the area?"
Lewis smiles weakly at her. "So, how much do you guys have to catch me up on?" he asks.
"A lot!" Eric, his halfbrother, chuckles.

"We'll definitely have to set up a time we can go out, just the two of us, and catch up. You don't have to tell me everything, though. I know you've been through a lot."
Lewis sighs, "I should have known you'd say that. Always trying to put my needs first even though half the time I don't even know what those are myself."

"I agree." Chriais says.
She smiles knowing that it was true. "Lets go see the other siblings." Jayla says.

Brontë speaks up, "I could... maybe watch Saffy for you when you do. I mean, I know your lovely boyfriend is capable but..." She shrugs. "Maybe just think about it?"
Lewis mouths his thanks, bidding the oldest siblings goodbye for now, before he takes Jayla's hand. Leading her to the other side of the room, he spots Langford, Leah, and Laurie. "Hey!"
"Lewie!" Leah gasps, running to hug him. "Oh my god, mom and dad convinced us that you probably died!"

"I'm right here, baby, no need to talk about me like I'm not," Tudor whispers in her ear. "I'm fine with that."
Langdon, carrying his daughter, Annika, on his hip, says, "I saw you guys come in with a couple of kids. They're cute."
"They get that from Jayla," Lewis replies.

"That would be amazing," Brontë says with a smile. "It's been hard since losing you and the divorce."
"How old are they?" Langdon asks.

"You have no idea how much of a relief that is to me," Brontë sighs, her eyes landing on Saffy againm. "Or... maybe you do."
"Wait. So my baby brother has kids older than mine?" Langdon laughs. "Nika's one. And can be a little shy."

"Is there anything we can do to help make sure you're all safe?" Brontë asks.
"Hey, I think it'll be good for Annika. She just has her cousin Jiana and then the triplets rjght now."

Tudor nods. "We just gotta make sure that they don't, like, follow us or try to find us," he says softly.
"I betcha she'd like that," Langdon says, kissing his daughter's cheek. "She needs some friends around here."

"I'm sure there has to be something we can do. Be a- a back up plan in case something happens or- or something?" Brontë suggests.
Lewis gives her hand a squeeze. "Yeah. They just jave Saffy," he says before whispering, "You doing okay?"

Brontë places her hand on Charis's knee. "You'll tell me if you think of anything, right?"
Lewis kisses Jayla's cheek, pulling her closer.
"You two get much alone time? With two kids, I can imagine it just be rough," Langdon says.

Brontë quickly snaps ber hand back. "Oh, honey," she says softly, tears springing to her eyes. "I'm so sorry."
Tudor instinctively tightems his grip on her, pulling her closer.
"If you ever need soemthing last minute... I know if I'm not available, Em's almost always free. Hit us up if you need some space for you," Langdon says, winking at the couple.

"Baby, baby, no, don't apologize. You've gone through so much, sweetie."
"And I mean for anything," Langdon repeats, winking at his brother.
"Whoa, Langdon, no need to imply..." Lewis mumbles.
"When was the last time you really had the chance to connect in that way though?"

Jayla looks up and Lewis. She wasn't going to tell that information if he didn't.
