  "Eomma?" Kalmin asked
  "Yes, Honey. Come on. We are going home!" Adorah tells him
  Kalmin sniffled as he walked out of the bathroom as the team weren't sure what to do about themselves. Adorah placed a hand on her son's back and ushered him towards Aaron. JJ, however, had another idea as she walked in front of them.
  "Kalmin, I'm so sorry." JJ apologized
  "You have done enough! Move out of our way!" Adorah snipped
  JJ frowned as she did what Adorah says to avoid her wrath. Adorah and Kalmin made it over to Aaron who smiled at the little family. Kalmin looked down at the ground to hide the tears on his face and to save whatever dignity he had left.
  "It was so good seeing you again, Aaron!" Adorah tells him
  "It was! Don't be a stranger now!" Aaron tells her
  "Of course not! Goodbye!" Adorah tells him
  Adorah turned to the team and her scowl immediately turned to a smile when she saw the others that didn't hurt her son. Her eyes then landed on the dark haired woman in a pantsuit in front of her.
  "You."
  "Me?" Emily asked
  "You are Emily, yes?" Adorah asked
  "I am, Ma'am." Emily replied
  "Polite as well, I like you. Tell your mother I say hi." Adorah tells her
  Adorah and Kalmin walked out of the building as Emily was still in shock about the whole conversation, and events that happened moments before. Penelope looked at Emily with a confused expression on her face.
  "How does Kalmin's mother know yours?" Penelope asked
  "Adorah has been working alongside Emily's mother for a couple of years now. They are close friends, and hoped one day there children would meet each other." Aaron answered for Emily
  "Really?" Emily asked
  "Yes. Kalmin's mother is a wonderful woman but you mess with her son, it's over for you." David tells her
  "Will Kalmin come back?" Spencer asked
  "I hope he does. This team isn't the same without him." Derek spoke
  "Why did you tell his mom about what happened?" JJ asked
  "She had a right to know." Aaron told her
  "I hope our cat man is going to be ok." Penelope spoke
  "Cat man?" Spencer asked
  "He has three cats. It's hard to come up with nicknames for him, hard to read him." Penelope replied
  "It can't be that hard." Derek tells her
  "You try and profile him and tell me how it goes." Penelope challenged
  "Alright!" Derek replied

  Adorah looked over to see her son asleep on the couch with tears staining his face. She sighed softly before standing up and covering his body with the blanket that she had laid over the top of the couch. She sat back down and watched TV as she rubbed her hand on his legs that were next to her legs. She took a sip of her drink when she saw his phone ring. She didn't want to wake him up so she took it and walked into the kitchen to answer. She looked at the contact name to see it was Emily. She smiled before pressing answering and bringing it to her ear.
  "Hello?" Adorah answered
  "Ms. Lee! I'm so sorry for bothering you!" Emily apologized
  "Don't fret, jagiya! Kalmin is sleeping so I answered. Is everything alright?" Adorah asked
  "Yeah! Yeah! Everything is fine! I was just worried about him." Emily tells her
  "He's told me about you. Says you have a cat of your own. What's their name?" Adorah asked
  "Sergio."
  "That's a good name! Have you met his cats before?" Adorah asked
  "Yes! They were very sweet to me." Emily answered
  "I have this saying that if the pets love you, then the owner loves you." Adorah told her
  "What?"
  Adorah giggled, "It's a saying that my mother taught me when I was young and that was how I met my husband."
  "I'm sorry for your loss." Emily told her
  "Thank you. How is your mother?" Adorah asked
  "She's been kind of an hard ass." Emily told her
  "Same old Elizabeth. She was like that when we met but she acts like that to protect you." Adorah tells her
  "Thank you for telling me that. Makes so much sense now." Emily replied
  "Of course. I'm sorry if I frightened your team earlier, but I wanted to get my point across to protect Kalmin. To hear about what happened, upsets me. Were you aware this was happening?" Adorah asked
  "I tried to stop her, but she wouldn't listen. I don't know how far they went, but I know he feels awful about it." Emily explained
  Adorah nodded, "Alright. I have to begin setting up the funeral. Feel free to attend. I'll have Kalmin send you the location and time."
  "Of course. You need me to bring anything?" Emily asked
  "No, just yourself." Adorah informed her
  "Ok! I'll see you then." Emily told her
  "Goodbye now!"
  Adorah hung up and placed his phone on the kitchen counter. She looked down at the plans she had set up for the funeral. She sighed to herself as she brought her hands over her face as she thought about everything.
  "You ok?"
  Adorah looked over to see Kalmin walking into the kitchen and sat down at the end of the table. She chuckled as she closed the file she had for preparing the funeral.
  "Yeah. I'm more worried about you right now." Adorah told him
  She grabbed his hand in hers as she squeezed it tightly out of comfort. He looked down at the table as he knows that she knows everything regarding JJ now.
  "Why didn't you tell me?" Adorah asked
  "I didn't want to burden you with my problems." Kalmin replied
  "You could never burden me! Don't ever say that again! You hear me? Kal, you have always been my pride and joy, and I will always support you in every way possible. I'm not going anywhere unless I die, but that's not happening anytime soon. I hope you will understand that."
  "I do." Kalmin tells her
  "Good." Adorah replied
