It was a couple of weeks later and Chloe had moved out and back in with Nikki and Cameron. It was nice for Ange to just have Kisaiya again and slowly their relationship was getting back to how it was before.
It was Saturday morning and Ange had the day off, she was so glad that she would get to spend the day with Kisaiya as she had a surprise for the girl. Looking at the time, she was shocked that she had slept that late. She got up and wandered down the stairs noticing Kisaiya sat watching the TV.
"Hey sweetie, did you sleep well?" Ange asked and Kisaiya nodded not taking her eyes off of the TV.
"I was going to make pancakes, is that okay?" Ange asked.
"Nah, I'm fine thanks" Kisaiya said. Ange sighed. She was still having difficulties getting the girl to eat and knew that she needed to do this but their relationship was still shaky.
"Well I'll make some for myself and make a couple extra in case you change your mind" Ange said and Kisaiya nodded but she wasn't really paying attention to what her aunt was seeing.
Ange sighed. She just wanted a good day with her niece, and she didn't see it happening that way. She hoped that when she told the girl the news, it might change her mindset but she doubted it.
Ange made the pancakes and then called the girl through to see if she wanted any.
"I said I didn't. You can force me. Can't you just take no for an answer" Kisaiya shouted. Ange sighed. She hadn't expected the girl to have such a go at her when she was simply asking a question.
Ange sat down at the table on her own and ate the pancakes. She wasn't even that bothered about the girl not wanting to eat them. She simply wanted the company. They hadn't had a lot of time to speak recently.
Kisaiya came walking into the room and looked at her aunt.
"I'm sorry for snapping at you" She said nervously.
"It's okay" Ange said "Is something bothering you?"
"My stomach is really sore" Kisaiya admitted apprehensively.
"Oh sweetie, Ange said pulling her chair out and encouraging the girl to sit on her knee. Kisaiya reacted to this instantly and sat down on her aunt's knee.
"Is there anything I can do to help?" Ange asked looking at the girl on her knee. She always looked so much younger when she was in her pyjamas with no makeup on. Kisaiya shrugged and snuggled closer to her aunt.
"What type of pain is it?" Ange asked trying to push a little more.
"Cramp" She admitted and Ange nodded.
"Are you on your period?" Ange asked and Kisaiya shook her head.
"When was your last one? Maybe you are coming on soon" Ange said.
"Like 5 weeks ago" Kisaiya admitted and Ange nodded.
"It's normal to be irregular at first so just make sure that you have supplies with you" Ange said and Kisaiya nodded.
"I also have something that I think you might like" Ange said and Kisaiya smiled looking at her aunt. She was excited to see what this might be.
"What is it?" She asked excitedly.
"So I got this on Thursday but I was waiting so that I could see your reaction" Ange said as she handed the paper over to Kisaiya.
"You are my mum now" Kisaiya said smiling as she opened the paper and Ange nodded.
"You are always my daughter, this piece of paper just confirms it" Ange said and Kisaiya smiled. She was so happy.
"Did my mum not say anything? She would have been notified" Kisaiya said and Ange nodded.
"They tried to get in touch with your mum but they still haven't heard from her" Ange explained. It had been over a month now since anyone had been in touch with Clemmie.
"Where do you think she is?" Kisaiya asked.
"Honestly, I have absolutely no idea" Ange admitted.
"Do you think she is dead?" Kisaiya asked and Ange sighed.
"I do hope not. She left with her bag, purse and everything so I feel like it was to go with someone or something like that" Ange explained and Kisaiya nodded. This was the first time that she had fully and openly spoken to Ange properly about her mother.
"Do you think my mum ever loved me?" Kisaiya asked and Ange's heart broke.
"Kis, I know that your mum loved you. She just found it hard to show it some of the time but she did love you. Do you think you have a better life now with me than you did with your mum?" Ange asked and Kisaiya nodded.
"See, that proves that she does love you" Ange said and Kisaiya nodded.
"I find it hard to think that she loved me because she let Pete do that to me" Kisaiya admitted.
"I can't defend her actions and I'm not going to say everything good about her because she made a massive mistake. I can't defend that" Ange said honestly. She wouldn't stand up and defend people unless she had a real belief of what that person was supporting or defending. However, when it came to Kisaiya and Chloe, she would defend them no matter what.
"Do I have to call you mum?" Kisaiya asked.
"Of course not, you can call me whatever you want as long as it is a good name though" Ange said and Kisaiya laughed.
"How will I know when the time is right though?" Kisaiya asked worriedly.
"Don't think about it, when the time is right you will know and it may never be right and I don't mind" Ange explained and Kisaiya nodded.
They continued to have a good conversation about their week and how work and school had been. Then they decided to get ready for the day. Ange wanted to take Kisaiya shopping as it had been a while. It was getting colder as well so they needed to get some more wintery clothes.
"Let's get you a nice winter jacket" Ange said as she dragged the girl around the shops. Neither of them were overly keen on shopping but it had to be done. The wardrobe Ange and Kisaiya got when the girl first arrived was very summery not many of it was appropriate now.
They ended up buying quite a lot and were really happy with their purchases when they arrived home. They then changed into their pyjamas and watched a film. Ange loved having Kisaiya in her arms. It wasn't often she had someone relying on her but it was nice.
"Can I sleep with you tonight? Kisaiya asked softly as she noticed that it was almost 10 o'clock. Ange smiled and looked at the girl.
"Go on then but just tonight" Ange said and Kisaiya nodded. She loved snuggling up with her aunt. She might be 12 now but she wasn't too old for cuddles.
Sorry its not great. I'm just trying to get back into it after xmas and new year. Sorry for the delay in updating.
