A few days after Ben had arrived, he was being led somewhere by Kelly and her moms deep in the northern area of the forest.
"Where are we going again?" asked Ben while stepping over some tree roots.
"Kelly wanted to show you a place that she holds close to her heart," said Mebh.
"Why would it be so far… in the forest?" asked Ben as they came to a clearing filled with flowers of all colors. However, right in the middle of the clearing were two headstones that sat in an area void of any flowers.
"I wanted you to meet my other parents," said Kelly before running ahead.
"They loved to bring her out here for picnics so after their passing he buried them here and left those headstones as a monument to them," said Robyn.
"Why did she even want me to come here?" asked Ben.
"I've only known her for a few days and all so she hardly knows me," he said.
"But you're family and that's a big thing for Kelly," said Robyn while nudging him to walk forwards.
"And she's scared to lose more people she cares for, to which we also explained that those we lose are always with us in our hearts," said Mebh.
"Mama, papa, I'd like you to meet mama Robyn's uncle Ben who recently came to town," said Kelly after the adults had arrived next to her.
"Nice to meet the both of you," said Ben.
"I've just known your daughter for a few days but I can already tell that she's a great girl and you did a good job raising her," he said.
"She can be a handful at times," said Mebh.
"But we wouldn't give her up for anything," said Robyn while smiling at Kelly.
"And I can assure you that she is in the best hands that she could be now, Robyn and Mebh will keep doing a great job at raising her," said Ben.
"Alright, who wants to have some lunch before we head back?" asked Robyn while laying out a blanket nearby.
"Sounds great," said Mebh as they all gathered around.
