*Shadi stared down at the little girl who opened the door. That had been unexpected. Still, the child looked familiar.*
"Who are you?"

"Um. I told you; I used to be Emily's step-daughter. Is this even her house?"

***AS RUBY***
"I mean what's your name? She's not here right now, but this IS her house."

*Shadi grinned.*
"Oh! Sorry. Yeah. Shadi. Is my name. Shadi Khan."

*Shadi's eyebrows raised.*
"It's nice to meet you, Ruby," *she said.* "I guess you're Emily's kid?"
But who else's? Are you my sister, or my aunt? And what is wrong with this family?

"Yeah," *said Ruby with a smile careless of who her father was. All she'd ever needed or wanted was her Mum, and she doubted anything could change that.* "Are we related?"

"I think so," *she said.* "I mean, I don't know a lot of Khan's, do you?"
*She cocked her head at the little girl. Shadi was surfeited with family, these days. It felt good.*
"Do you mind?"

"Mind what?" *When someone asked her Do You Mind it usually meant she was in the way.*

"Being related," *she said.* "I think it's fun. But I guess it's okay if you don't."

"No, I mean...I dunno. I've never been related to anyone except Mummy."

Ramses stood up from the chair and placed the blanket softly on the chair, he moved toward the front and door and smiled to see a Ruby talking to a young woman. He said nothing, it was a foreign world to him, he was there to learn.
...For the time being.

*Emily strode up the path towards the cottage with a bag of groceries in each arm, stopping short as she saw Ruby and Shadi standing at the door.*
"Hello--" *she said, smiling at Shadi curiously.* "What's the occassion?"

Ramses looked out the door to see a woman holding two bags, she seemed to have a glow about her, something sacred. He moved in to view, not so that she would see him, but more so, that he, could see her.
