"Oh my goodness I am being eaten alive!" Katia pretended to scream.  "Save me! Save me!" She couldn't help but laugh. She has never felt so much love in her life. If this was what having a family was all about, then she hoped this feeling never ended.  "So, Ahmir and Destiny are you guys okay with me being your Auntie?" She asked. "Your mother having a sister. Can I take you out to the park for ice cream or maybe to the movies?" 

Destiny clapped her hands together. "Ice ceam!" She said happily.

Ahmir went and sat in her lap and looked at her. "What kind?"

"What is your favorite kind of ice cream? I always love chocolate or strawberry with sprinkles on them." She said as she held him close.  "But you know what my favorite one ice cream is. Having a banana split with whipped cream and cherries on top. So yummy." She stated starting to drool at the thought of it.

Ahmir glanced back at his momma and papa who were still kissing and then back at her. "Chocolate,"he said. "T. Want to see T."

Katia looked over at Kaia and Zayn furrowing her brows.  "Who is T?  Is that someone I can help find?"

"T!" Ahmir said again. "See T!"

Destiny clapped her hands together again. "Auntie Mari!" She said with a big smile.

"Maybe your sister would be willing to babysit sometime," Zayn said as he pulled Kaia into his arms and kissed her deeply.

"Mmmm," she couldn't help but moan. "Maybe," she said. "But I don't want to overwhelm her either."

"Zayn!" Katia called over to them.  "Help me here. Who is T?" She asked.  "I would love to take you to see T as soon as your papa tells me where she is?" Katia said pleading with Zayn for help as Ahmir's lip was quivering and she could tell he was ready to burst.

Kaia gasped loudly at her sisters question.

"Relax,"he whispered to her. "Breathe, baby."

He walked over to his sister in law and looked at his son. "Farishta, we've talked about this."

"Papa," Ahmir said. "T!"

He looked at Katia. "T is Marian," he said. "It's what he calls her. Did he ask you to take him?"

"Yes, he said he wanted to see T and Destiny said something about Auntie but I wasn't quite sure who they were talking about." She said.  "Does Kaia let Marian see the children?" She asked.  "I don't mind watching them or even taking them to see Marian. That is if you and Kaia don't have a problem with it. Like I said, she has only ever been nice to me. But Kaia is my sister and I need to put her first" 

Kaia walked over to them. "It's alright," she said. "Marian has a special bond with my children. Especially Ahmir."

Zayn looked at his wife. "Katia, will you excuse us for a moment." He took Kaia's hand and led her away. "Why don't we have her take the twins to see Marian. We could have date night," he said and pulled her close.

"Do you think we can trust her?" She asked.

"What do you feel in your heart?" He asked. "Do you feel the twin connection?"

She glanced at Katia and then back at him. "I do," she said."Do you feel you can trust her?"

"Not 100% yet," he said. "But if she's with Marian, I trust her. Even if you and she have had a falling out, I know you still trust her with the twins."

"You're right," she said. "Besides, I'm feeling a little frisky Mr. Malik."

He yanked her to him. "The same Mrs. Malik," he growled. "Should we go and ask her?"
