"What do you mean she’s at the cemetery?” Ashley asked wide eyed unsure of where Kyla was taking this.

“Look Ash you need to calm down okay, get your shoes on and we’ll head to the hospital,”

“Mama,” a small frail voice spoke from the door way. Glancing over there Ashley saw a twelve year old girl looking quite scared holding her arms at her chest, “Are you okay?”

“Who is that? Ashley asked pointing to the small girl who had auburn hair pulled into a pony tail and bright blue eyes.

“AJ sweetie can you give us a minute?”

“Sure Aunt Kyla,” she whispered sounding on the verge of crying as she walked out of the room.

“Aunt Kyla, how is that possible?” Ashley felt like she some how died and was in a new life, “Where’s Spencer? Who is that girl? What the hell is going on?” she asked question after question pacing in the room.

Kyla grabbed her sister forcing her to sit down on the bed than she scooted over the desk chair and sat in front of her, “Breath Ashley just breath okay…” she helped Ashley breath slowly in and out, “This isn’t fair to her and you know it.”

”Who?”

“Your daughter Ashley, AJ, look I pick her up from school and keep her for a few days while you deal with the anniversary of Spencer’s death okay but your going to have to stop sooner or later and talk to her about her mother she deserves to know.” Kyla argued.

“How can I tell her when I don’t know what you’re talking about?” Ashley shouted back.

“Fine you know what,” Kyla stood up than leaned down and pulled a scrap book out from under the bed along with a photo album, “Look in here it’ll tell you everything you need to know okay and when you decide to pull your head out of your ass go into that damn kitchen and cook your daughter something to eat because I’m done Ashley, it’s time you talked to her about Spencer.”

Than she left, Ashley could hear her sister saying good bye to the little girl before the door closed leaving them alone together. In the living room the television turned on to some cartoons telling the brunette that she had some time before have to interact with the child.
