Maya, Lucas and Josh got off the subway and started to walk towards the Matthews. When Maya saw the apartment, she began to run towards it. Once she got to the outer doors she pressed the intercom.

"It's Maya! Open up!" she said into it. The door opened and she ran in, as she ran through the halls she could hear the boys behind her yelling to her but her mind was on other things. When she finally got to the Matthew's front door she stood there and looked at it. She felt as though she couldn't move just stare at what she left behind. Behind that door came all the feelings and memories, when she would come here every morning and then the day that she had to leave for the last time. She was afraid of what changed in there when she was gone, the world went on when she left, but the door stayed the same.

"Maya! Did you run a lot in London?" Josh asked breathing heavily." Maya shook her head still in a bit of a daze.

"No, why?" She said blankly. Josh and Lucas shook their head and looked at each other.

"You ran up 5 sets of stairs in like 20 seconds, that's about 1 set every 4 seconds!" Lucas said. Maya rolled her eyes and smiled, finally coming out of her daze.

"Wow Ranger Rick can do math." She said in a mocking tone. She knocked the door lightly and waited for someone to open it. Right away Riley did, Smiley as ever.

"Maya you know you can just walk in… like you used to…" Riley mumbled the last part but Maya could still hear it.

"Oh, Okay." Maya said in reply. She walked into the apartment, some of the furniture was different but it mostly looked the same. She looked at the people in the room and how they have changed so much but at the same time not at all. Maya walked over to the kitchen table and sat on the old bench where she, Riley, and Auggie would sit for breakfast. Maya couldn't help but smile.

"Are you alright Maya?" Topanga asked as she sat next to her. Maya looked up at her and nodded.

"Sorry, just everything comes back in waves." She said smiling. Topanga smiled back at her and hugged her.

"It's a lot, even for us, just take it slowly." Maya nodded and looked at Auggie, He had grown up so much. Even though Auggie was Riley's little brother, it felt like he was Mayas as well. He was definitely taller.

"My god, if Auggie grows anymore he will be taller than me." She said hugging the boy. Auggie just laughed and hugged her back. When he let go she looked at the rest of her friends, they all grew up. Riley definitely had more of an elegant and mature look to her although she was still the goof ball Maya had left behind. Then she looked at Farkle who had more chiseled features. Lucas actually looked like he used to, just a little less baby faced. Everyone had this weird Mature look to them that Maya didn't really like. She wanted them to have the younger look they used to, now they looked like adults and it kind of bothered her.

"So, want to watch a movie in my room?" Riley asked. Maya smiled and nodded. They then followed Riley into her room. When Maya walked into Riley's room it wasn't very different, although Riley did get rid of her bunny nightlight. Riley also had a big screen tv on her wall. Maya then flopped onto Riley's bed, she scooted into the middle. Riley laid on her left side and Farkle laid on her right. While Lucas and Josh sat at the end of the bed. Maya smiled and leaned her head on Riley.

"So what movie are we going to watch?" Farkle asked.

"Let's see what's on Netflix, okay?" Riley said. They scrolled through the movies until they decided to watch Moana. Throughout the movie Maya and Riley would sing along with the songs and would try and get the guys to sing too. Once the movie ended the group just talked. Maya finally left the group when she need to go to the bathroom. When she walked into the living room she saw Cory and Topanga sitting on the couch hugging, and she remembered her home back in London. Everything was hitting her like a small panic attack. Topanga looked over to see Maya there on the brink of tears.

"Maya are you okay?" Topanga asked. Maya shook her head and took a seat beside Topanga.

"Oh boy, I think I'll be leaving now." Corey said quickly getting up and running to his bedroom. Topanga smiled and laughed.

"I don't know why I married him." She said joking. Maya weakly smiled and leaned towards Topanga as she wrapped her arms around her. "What's wrong Maya? I know it's been quite a while since we have had one of these talks, but I will always be here for you." She said. "We all will." Topanga said in a nurturing way.

"Thank you, Topanga, you really are just like the mother I always wanted." Maya said.

"Maya, your mother tried her best with raising you, it's not easy being a single mother." Topanga said looking at her. "And I think she did a great job.

"It doesn't feel like she did such a good job…"

"Maya, she did her best, that's all that matters, now what's wrong?" Topanga asked concerned. Maya wiped away the tear that fell down her cheek.

"When I left New York, it made me feel so sad, but now, returning felt even worse. New York had been my home for 14 years and I was in London for 5, but I think… no, I feel like London is my home." Maya said looking at her shoes. "It just feels like I'm a stranger here now. Everything is out of sync." Maya explained.

"Maya, I'm going to tell you a story. When I was a little girl I live in a place I called home, then when I got older I moved to different places and called them all home too. Maya, those places were just houses or apartments, things made of wood and metal, nothing special really. The thing that made it special was that my family was there, home is where people you love and people who love you, are. Maya Your home is everywhere, New York, London, anywhere people who love you are, that's what home is. I know it may seem like you're a stranger here, but really you're not, we all love you, but we just have seen you in a while." Topanga said.

"I guess I never thought about it that way." Maya said hugging Topanga.

"We all love you and care for you Maya, this, we are your home." Maya looked at Topanga and smiled. She then wrapped her arms around her and hugged her.

"Thank you Topanga."
