Iyra leans in Jinxes doorframe...

"Darling not to point out the obvious but your crying again so what's up? And don't ,bullshit me. I want to know the unfiltered truth of what's bothering you so we can talk about it.
Wrong feelings Don't Exist
Just wrong people." Iyra added.

"Did... did you know my sister was alive?" Jinx questioned

"Just ,because Silco is my husband doesn't mean we are the same person. Unfortunately, Being a crime lord means he knows how not to get caught doing things. Including foolish shit ,he knows I'd disapprove of. That being said I've only suspected your Sister is alive as long as you have.

Another thing I'm going to say is this and I want you to hear, it really actually, hear it.

It might feel like what your feeling or experiencing is extreme. However all those thoughts ,feelings ,and well, the whole mess of it.... that's a natural reaction.
You aren't wrong to be excited and angry and sad all at once." Iyra Explained.

"It's just I have pictured them all in my mind for so long.... I lost them so when I see them at least that's a way they are still close to me. A way I can still apologize for what I did. Vi though I don't want to apologize. SHE LEFT ME. Yet for whatever reason I still want to know her..." Jinx frowned.

"That reason simply put... is ,because she's your Sister. Its ok. To have a complicated relationship with where you came from. You and I have two totally different experiences and feelings.
So I'm not ever going to fully understandable hard and complicated it must be for you.
However; if it helps to know there are others with similar feelings, I felt that way for a long time about my home.... Being confused and angry because I was shut out ,but still missing parts of it I liked.

My point with that is this; Wether you want to have a relationship with your sister or not... is up to you.
Whatever you decide ,either is perfectly fine.
That being said She's your Sister. In Adopting you I made a commitment not only to you, but to those you count as family as well. If you want to get to know her. You are both welcome here.
If not I understand what she did hurt you deeply especially since you've had an idea of what she'd be like now in your head this whole time... and She may or may not end up comparing to that image you have of her.

Whatever you decide. Im not going anywhere.
Just know you have people who you can lean on when you need support." Iyra observed.

"Silco said she will betray us ... It's only Him and I."
Jinx frowned.

"Silco, can be a fucking Drama Queen. He just... he gets scared of loosing what's important to him partially due to Vander... however his own family ... didn't instill much trust either. Silco is a person of patterns. Saw the same thing repeat over and over snd convinced himself it would keep happening. Translation is that he is so afraid of loosing you too that he isn't trusting you to make your own decisions... he's being a bit unfair to you.
I will talk to him about it. You focus on you.
What you want and what you need.
Either way one perk of the manor technically being mine is that You are always welcome here. As is by extension if you so choose your sister. Silco will just have to get used to it but I can talk to him about it ... it's more about his own past than you or your Sister."
Iyra explained.

"Thanks." Jinx just hugged her chest to her legs.

"Don't thank me. All the work you've done to get to where you are now is and has been yours. Just remember your strategies if it gets too much. ok?" Iyra smiled.

"If I get stuck in my thoughts find a way to ground myself." Jinx sighed.

"Precisely." Iyra confirmed ending the conversation.
