It was the following day and again Kisaiya was the first one up. She found it difficult sleeping in Evie's room and the mattress wasn't very comfortable. She was also worried about Evie and was scared that she would choke on her sick or something.
Kisaiya walked into the living room and noticed that Chloe was on Facebook
Kisaiya: Are you coming around today?
Chloe: Yea I will at some point.
Kisaiya: Can I speak to you alone?"
Chloe: Yea of course, do you want me to call you just now
Kisaiya: If you don't mind.
With that, Chloe called her and Kisaiya answered.
"How was last night?" Chloe asked knowing that it was best to have a casual conversation to put Kisaiya at ease before moving onto whatever was bothering her.
"It was fine. Evie came back really drunk though and Mum and Fletch weren't happy. Mum had to help her to bed" Kisaiya said and Chloe bite her lip from laughing. She knew that her mother wouldn't have been happy about that.
"Oh I bet mum wasn't impressed" Chloe said and Kisaiya agreed.
"They were also mad because Evie was meant to be looking after us all but she went out all day. I had to look after them and I burnt my arm making hot chocolate. Ella banged into me when I was pouring the water into the cups" Kisaiya explained.
"That's not fair if you were left to look after the others, you are only 12" Chloe said "Did you show Mum your arm?"
"Yeah I did. She forgot to put cream on it so I went into her and Fletch's room last night like she said I could but they were both naked. It was scary" Kisaiya explained.
"Why was it scary?" Chloe asked softly.
"Because they were naked so Fletch must have hurt Mum" Kisaiya explained.
"How would he have hurt Mum?" Chloe asked not following.
"Because of what they were doing" Kisaiya explained.
"I'm confused" Chloe said not understanding. She was trying to stay calm and be supportive, but she was starting to lose patience.
"Fletch and Mum must have been doing stuff and it would hurt Mum" Kisaiya explained.
"Do you mean like sex and sexual activities?" Chloe asked and Kisaiya nodded.
"Yes, so he hurt Mum" Kisaiya said.
"Sweetie, sex doesn't always hurt especially for someone like Mum who has had children and stuff" Chloe tried to explain. She did find it weird that she was speaking about her mother's sex life but she knew she needed to reassure Kisaiya.
"They might not have even had sex" Chloe said.
"Why were they naked then?" Kisaiya asked.
"Because sometimes it about exploring each other's bodies" She explained. Suddenly Chloe noticed Kisaiya's breathing change.
"Mum's here" She whispered.
"That's okay keep breathing like normal" Chloe said encouragingly.
"What's wrong?" Ange asked as she noticed her daughter beginning to struggle to breath.
"Chloe?" She asked as she grabbed the phone and put it up to her ears.
"Yeah, can you calm Kiss down and then speak to her about last night" Chloe explained.
"Okay, I will do" Ange explained. She then hung up and started calming the girl down. She made sure that the girl's breathing was normal and then snuggled up on the sofa with her.
"What's going on in your head?" Ange asked "What were you speaking to Chloe about?"
Ange was very soft and patient with her daughter. Her strong people skills coming through.
"Fletch was hurting you" Kisaiya said.
"Fletch has never hurt me" Ange explained. She wasn't sure where Kisaiya got that idea from.
"Last night, you were naked in bed with him. He must have hurt you" Kisaiya stated.
"No sweetie, me and Fletch were naked because we were showing each other that we love each other" Ange tried to explain. She didn't want to speak about her sex life with her daughter but this was different. Her daughter was scared and she needed to help her.
They heard a noise and turned around to see Ella and Theo.
"Get daddy to make you breakfast" Ange said and they nodded. A couple of minutes later, Fletch came and sorted his children out. This allowed Ange to put her full attention on Kisaiya.
"When you see a couple naked, do you just think about what you went through?" Ange asked softly and Kisaiya nodded.
"What you went through was not making love. That was rape and making love and rape are completely different. The feeling when you are having sex with someone you love is nothing like you went through. Maybe the first couple of times you have sex might be painful but the love is different. Once you've done it a couple of time the pain disappears and it feels completely different" Ange explained and Kisaiya nodded.
"You are only 12, I promise that when you are older and thinking about sex we will have another conversation about it and make sure you are fully prepared" Ange explained.
"I don't think I'll ever have sex" Kisaiya admitted.
"I'm not going to lie, it will take a long time for you to feel ready but you will and I promise to be there to help you when you do" Ange explained and Kisaiya nodded. She then snuggled up with her mum for a good five minutes before they went through and found the other children who were all eating breakfast, bar Evie.
"Do you want me to look after the others while you go and speak to Evie" Ange said and Fletch looked at her.
"Can't you come and speak to her" Fletch complained.
"No she is your daughter. If it was a woman's issue I would understand and speak to her but this is a parent issue so you can deal with it" Ange said. "We still need to speak about how we handle punishing the children so for just know I think it's important that we keep our children and our views separate"
Fletch nodded and disappeared to speak to Evie. Ange decided that she wasn't going to question him when he came back as it was important that it was not seen that she was undermining Fletch.
Evie and Fletch came through about 15 minutes later and Evie looked sheepish.
"I'm sorry for last night Ange" Evie said and Ange nodded.
"Don't get in that state again" Ange warned and Evie nodded. They spoke for a bit longer before Ange and Kisaiya headed home.
Chloe arrived in the early afternoon. She made sure that Kisaiya was okay after their chat this morning before hanging out with her sister and mum to watch some TV. After dinner Dom arrived, the found another film to watch and had some drinks and then having an early night.
Hope this is okay :)
