At the juvenile detention center, Lena met with Bill and saw Jesus. She looked at Jesus in shock of how much he had grown up, and because of the sullen look he had on his face. He looked so different.
Jesus looked at Lena and asked, "How's Jude?"
Lena smiled, "He's good. He's happy and still the sweetest little boy."
"That's good." Jesus replied with a small nod. "I'm glad."
"Alright ready to go?" Lena asked
Jesus shrugged, "I guess."
Once they arrived at the Adams Foster home, Stef was upstairs doing some laundry while the kids did their homework. Jesus walked into the house to see Callie standing next to Jude helping him with his homework. Jesus became enraged. Jude was HIS brother. He walked over to Callie and pushed her away from Jude and up against the wall.
"Ow." Callie cried "Who are you? You're hurting me."
"I'm Jesus and Jude is my brother." Jesus replied angry
Lena, who was a little bit behind Jesus, walked in to see Jesus had Callie pinned against the wall. She said firmly, "Jesus! Let Callie go!"
"Fine." Jesus replied annoyed as he let Callie off the wall.
"Mama!" Callie cried as she ran and hugged Lena
Lena hugged her daughter back, "What happened, sweets?"
"I was just helping Jude with his homework." Callie explained sniffling
Jude turned to Lena, "Hi mama."
"Hi bubba." Lena replied
Then Jude turned to Jesus and smiled excitedly as he hugged him, "Jesus!"
Jesus smiled and hugged Jude back, "Hey baby. I missed you."
"I missed you too." Jude replied
Mariana walked downstairs and saw Lena. She smiled, "Hi mama."
"Hey Miss Thing." Lena said
"Mama, I'm hungry." Jude complained
Lena smiled, "Of course you are. I'll start on dinner." Then she asked, "Where's B?"
"He's upstairs practicing piano." Callie replied "He said he finished his homework in study hall."
Lena nodded, "Okay what about you three? Homework all done?"
"I'm almost done, mama." Jude replied
"I just have reading left." Mariana stated
"Yeah same with me." Callie added "I wanted to get before bed with you, mama."
Lena nodded, "Okay, sweets. That's doable." Then she looked at Mariana, "How about you, Miss Thing? Would you like to do your reading with me?"
"I'm going to read with mom after dinner." Mariana replied
"Speaking of mom, where is she?" Lena asked
"Mommy's upstairs doing laundry." Jude stated
Jesus was just standing watching the scene. He was hurt and upset that Jude no longer saw him as a dad, and that he saw Lena and Stef as his moms. It had been four years though, so it didn't really surprise Jesus that much.
- Flashback -
The weekend after Jesus was taken away, Stef took Jude to the park for a picnic and so he could play. While they were eating their lunch, Jude thought of a question.
"Stef?" Jude asked
"Yes baby?" Stef replied
"I miss my dada." Jude stated sadly
Stef nodded, "That's perfectly understandable."
"Stef, is it okay to cry?" Jude asked
"What?" Stef said shocked "Of course it is."
Jude hugged Stef and cried, "I really miss dada. I wish he was here."
Stef sighed sadly as she rubbed Jude's back. She felt so bad for him. "It's okay, buddy. It'll get better. Over time you won't miss him as much." Stef told the little boy. "I promise. You won't always feel like this."
Jude just nodded as he cried while still hugging Stef.
Meanwhile with Jesus, who was sitting on his bed in a new foster home. He was sad and felt so alone and lost without Jude. In the last four years, he had never, ever been away from Jude and although it had been only two days, he felt like he was dying inside.
"What if I never see Jude again?" Jesus asked himself sadly as he started to cry silently
