Milan had taken a shower and changed by the time the rest got back, sitting on the bed with her back to the wall she knew they would say something, especially because she made them explain what sexuality was, talking to someone

Ow

She hit her elbow on the bed frame, walking in first was Mimu who more so ran in and locked the door

M - "they are angry because he found out you guys did it on purpose,"
Mi - "then lie?"
M - "that isn't nice,"
...
M - "And I may have told him the full story while explaining it to myself-.."
Mi - "fine, you can take a bath"

Getting up and unlocking the door, she opened it to them just staring at it each other [assuming angrily] then staring at her

Mi - "what?"
R - "you left us with basically 3 8 year olds to explain"
Al - "and you outed Eirn when wanted to do it himself, and apparently he was really looking forward to it if he was yelling!"
Mi - "wow two for two, and I didn't even try that time, are you going to go to sleep or yell at me while people are trying to sleep"

Walking out of the way for them to get in, walking in they both sit on their own bed while milan stands

Mi - "like I said I wouldn't have done it if I thought some one in the room wouldn't accept him"
Al - "it doesn't matter! You said it when he wanted to say it!"
Mi - "why do you care so much anyway? I get feeling a little off but your yelling now, even after he forgave me,"
Al - "what if you out me next?"
R - "I knew you were gay"
Al - "wait, no, dangit Rose you know what I'm
talking about,"
R - "yea I do but its still funny"
Mi - "especially because you don't know yourself,"
Al - "shut, I'm still angry,"
Mi - "alright, I'm going to sleep then"

... .. .

Because milan was sensible she didn't tell anyone but the people in the room, Eirn told mom himself, Azzy forgot that milan had even said anything about her friend liking her,

Mimu's dream... .. .
[also in his pov]

I was shaken awake by milan,

M - "yes?"
Mi - "your sister is here."
M - "she is!"
Mi - "yes, right next to where you were found,"

I sit up but can't move my legs

Mi - "don't let them find out,"
M - "find out what?..."
Mi - "I know what you did, you do too, and I was the reason why you did it"
M - "milan stop, how do you know,"
Mi & m - "no body knows, not even kepo,"
Mi - "Mimu I'm sorry I did what I did, but we had to get here, I have somethings to do and so do you,"

Now I'm terrified, she reaches out and grabs my hand, turning over, with what I had used in my hand, I can't move my arms now,

M - "is this a dream? Please be a dream"
Mi - "yep, and I'm not the real milan, because the real one is trying to wake you up"

Back in reality... .. .
[and back into the same pov as last time]

Milan is shaking Mimu, who is under the cover crying, stopping abruptly,sitting up, and pushing the cover off of himself, Milan was staring at him in her school clothes,

Mi - "uh, you ok?"
M - "I need to check the garden"
Mi - "can't you check after scho-"
But without changing he gets up and runs to the garden, Milan chooses to make an excuse for him,

. .. ...12/1/20... .. .
. ..8:27am.. .

The rest of the kids [that were old enough] were gone to school, Mimu at this point changed clothes and was waiting for mother while sniffing, it was getting cold and she kept making him go back and put something on, finally waking out with two umbrellas and handing on to Mimu, knowing he was getting impatient she taught him how to use it on the walk outside, he had seen what he thought was his sister's hair, but he had fell trying to go back inside because it started raining, so now he was actually not feeling well, grabbing shovels,

While Mimu dug [he insisted on it] mother held an umbrella above both of their heads, being as careful as he could he got to the skin, now using his hands despite mother trying to stop him, he had uncovered her full head at this point, not knowing what to do he kind of squeezed her head, making her eyes open

K - "oww, stop it Mimu my head hurts,"
M - "kepo!"
Mo - "Mimu her head hurts its best not to yell"

. .. ...11:09... .. .

At this point It was hours later and she took a shower and fell asleep in the hallway, which was what they needed to talk about next, room, Mimu's room was already full and there was no point to kick him out because the whole point was for him to be with his sister, and they couldn't kick Rose or Aloe out because then they would be separated, so it had to be milan, they would tell her when she got home but for now they had other things to talk about, like how she knows what they are.

Mo - "look I know you aren't like me or the rest of us"
M - "you mean plants?"
Mo - "yes, and I think I know how you got here,"
K - "what are you-"
Mo - "to myself I am human, to you I am candy, with different people being different candy, which is essentially race,"
...
K - "ok first off, how'd I get so tall?"
Mo - "well examining both of you, you guys are succulents, but a different kind, Kepo has a pink on her hair and tail Mimu only had green, Kepo is just one that grows faster,"
K - "how long had it been??"
Mo - "8 years, Mimu talked about you, you are 18 now,"
M - "how do you know how we got here?"
Mo - "its how do you know the way we go here, and it's because I was friends with the scientist,"
K - "whos the scientist?"
Mo - "I can't tell you that, due to his wishes but he created a portal, which led to other worlds but he decided this was the first one to question, but he walked to here and told me his discovery after a while of visiting, I would have loved to meet his family but sadly I didn't want to leave my mother alone for a few days, for a while he was known as uncle to the kids and we sadly had to fake his death 8 years ago,"

Getting up she picked up two picture frames, one with a man with gray skin and a hat on and one with kids in the background and one with just him and mother with his hat being taken by mother,

Mo - "he had to wear a hat due to his hair just like you guys, it was too noticeable which is why he told me, I had found out,"

Silence, mother had nothing to add nor did the siblings have anything to ask, mostly because they didn't didn't care to go back to their world,  there would be nothing to go back to, the house was gone and they didn't even know if their parents had died or something,

K - "question, can I work here,"
Mo - "sure, though there isn't much to do that we don't work together on."
