Sasha:

She shrugged. "I-" she stopped talking

Leo

"You alright? " he murmured.

Sasha:

She followed Leo

Leo

He nodded slightly and turner.

Sapna:

She nodded, "See you in the morning, Sasha."

Leo

He nodded, "yes Ma'am. "

He glanced at Sasha.

She raised an eyebrow. "She's staying ehre tonight."

"She stays with me tonight,"

said.

"Alright," he said.

Sapna:

"I need to meet your mother. Bring ehr here tomorrow morning, if I think she'd make a good foster mother for Sasha then she can go with you two, if not then she stays here."

Leo

"All I know is that Sasha doesn't want to stay here, and she is better off with me,, and my mom," he said.

Sapna:

"Until you are married to her you have no say in her life, Leo."

Leo

"If she doesn't want to stay here,, she shouldn't. "

Sapna:

"In two years. Until then you need to stay here with Tuli, you are safer here and we can finally be a family after 15 years."

Sasha:

She looked up at Leo, her eyes panicked

Leo

He nodded.

Sapna:

She raised an eyebrow. "She needs to stay with her family."

Sasha:

"B-but L-Leo w-will b-be m-my f-family."

Leo

He gently helped Sasha stay behind him

Sapna:

She looked at Sasha.

Sasha:

She stared at the ground, trying to hide behind Leo.

Leo

"I don't have a say in that, " he said "only Sasha can choose that,"

Sasha:

She agreed with Leo but didn't say anything.

Sapna:

She sighed and shook her head. "Don't you think she belongs with her family?"

Leo

"She is safe and loved with me," he said, "she barely even knows you,"

Sapna:

"We're her family. She belongs with ehr family where she is safe and loved."

Leo

"What do I dont understand, "

Sapna:

She sighed. "You don't understand."

Leo

"I will be in two years," he said,

Sapna:

"But you aren't her family."

Leo

"I've kept her safe," he said, "I've even fueled Mathious to keep her safe," he said.

Sasha:

"I w-won't stay here."

Sapna:

"I need to protect her, she's my daughter and I won't let her grow up an orphan. She needs to stay with her family until she's an adult."

Leo

"But still," he said. Running a hand through his hair, "she shouldn't stay with you if she doesn't want to, "

Sapna:

"I believed she was dead. I am still her mother."

Leo

"Well, you haven't been there for here, My mother has been, if only for a few days, she still has been a good mother,"

Sapna:

"They're my children, I am legaly required to care for them until they turn 18, even if they already think of themselves as adults."

Leo

He gave Sasha's hand a reassuring squeeze. "Sasha doesn't want to stay," he said.

Sasha

she shook her head and held tighter to Leo’s hand

Leo

He sighed softly.

Sapna:

"I'm their mother, it's my job to take care of them until they are adults."

Leo

"Tuli is back in the 5th clan," he said, "but I'm not so sure that Sasha wants to move in," he murmured.

Sapna:

She nodded. "Where is Tuli? You two can move in as soon as you've packed your things."

Leo

"It's true," he murmured.

Sasha:

She gently squeezed Leo's hand.

Sapna:

"May I ask what Leo is to you?"

Sasha:

"He's my fiancé and my best friend."

Leo

He gently slipped his hand into Sasha's.

Sasha:

"No hugs."

Sapna:

Sadness filled her eyes and she nodded. "I forgot how you must have been raised. Life in Dakur is horrible. I'm sorry you went through that."

Leo

"Its alright Sasha " he murmured.

Sasha:

"Oh."

Sapna:

She had been about to hug Sasha

Sasha:

She stepped behind Leo.

Leo

He tightened his arm reassuringly and lovingly around Sasha.

Sasha:

She took a step closer to Leo. "O-of course he did."

Sapna:

"I'm your mother, Sasha. I'm Sapna Bladerunner."

Leo

He ran a hand through his hair , "of course he lied," he muttered, mostly to himself.

Sasha:

"W-what?"

Sapna:

"Mathious told me you and Tuli died, 15 years ago. I was gone on a mission, I came back to the news you both were dead."

Leo

He glanced at Sasha.

Sapna:

"What did you say your name was again?"

Sasha:

"I'm S-Sasha."

Sapna:

"He told me you died while I was on a mission. I couldn't find you or Tuli, I searched and searched but couldn't find you." she whispered through tears

Leo

"Whats impossible ? " he said wrapping an arm around Sasha.

Sapna:

"I don't know who your parents are-" she grabbed Sasha's arm, turned it, saw the birthmark and gasped. "That's impossible!"

Sasha:

She took a step closer to Leo.

Lex:

He smiled

Amaya

She smiled, "that's good,"

Leo

He slightly cleared his throat, "Sasha was just wanting to meet her real parents.

And the both of us have left that life also,

Sapna;

"What do you two want? I left that life behind me 15 years ago." her eyes filled with grief.

Sasha:

She stayed silent and stared at the ground.

Lex:

"I slept well."

Amaya

"Yeah, you?"

Leo

He nodded slightly "Y-yeah,"

Sasha:

"My name is S-Sasha. This is L-" she was interupted.

Sapna:

"You're William's son, aren't you?" she looked at Leo

Lex:

"How'd you sleep."

Amaya

"Hi," she smiled .

Leo

"Its alright Sasha, " he murmured softly, so only she could hear.

Sasja:

She took a deep breath and knocked.

"COme in!" someone said.

Sasha opened the door and froze. A woman who looked very much like her and Tuli was sitting in a rocking chair. the woman looked up and let out a gasp

Lex:

"Hello." he said, smiling at Amaya

Leo

He wrapped an arm around her, "yes you can, unless you want to come back later."

Amaya

She opened her eyes, and smiled softly,

Sasha:

She stopped in front of the door of a beautiful house. She raised ehr hand to knock but froze. "I-I can't do this."

Lex:

He smiled at Amaya

Leo

He walked quicker.

Amaya

She stirred starting to wake.

Lex:

He woke a few hours later.

Sasha:

She led Leo along. "Someone told me they knew where my mother was. Let's go."

He didn't have any nightmares

She slept peaceful.

He fell asleep

Amaya

She smiled in her sleep.

Lex:

He started to fall asleep

Amaya

She nestled closer to him in her sleep.

He smiled at Amaya.

Amaya

She dozed off, a peaceful smile across her face.

Lex:

He couldn't wait to propose to her tomorrow morning!!!

Amaya

"I love you too, Lex,"

Lex:

He kissed the top of Amaya's head. "I love you."
