Once they got home, he made her change into some comfy clothes and he made her some tea and when they were settled on the couch together, she handed him a piece of paper.

"Is this her number?  Katia? Is that her name?" Zayn asked.

"Yes," she said. "Kind of frightening how similar our names are."

"Freaky how your names are only off by one letter. Definitely weird and I can see your parents unable to pick more than one name." He half laughed.  "Probably too much work for them."  He looked at the numbers on the paper.  "I will give her a call."

She sat up slightly and looked at him. "What will you say to her?"

"I haven't a clue. Let's hope something comes to me while I'm on the phone." Zayn joked.  "Relax and drink your tea"

She picked up her mug and drank down her tea. She set it down and curled into his side. She could feel his strength and she sighed heavily and felt her eyes getting very heavy.

Zayn picked up his cell and dialed in the number, his wife had given him.  It rang three times before he heard a familiar sound on the other line.  He was sunned at how similar he voice was to Kaia's.  "Hello?"

Katia picked up her phone and saw it was a number she didn't recognize.  "Hello?"

"Hello, is this Katia?  I would like to introduce myself. I'm Kaia's husband, Zayn. She gave me your number, she was too nervous to call you herself." He explained.  He glanced down and saw that Kaia was sound asleep with her head in his lap.

"Oh, I see," she said. A part of her wasn't even surprised. "I'm sure she told you we met today." She hated to admit talking to him was making her nervous

"Yes, and we would like to set up a time and a date to meet. We would like to meet you and discuss a few things. Get some background information and see where the future will take us." Zayn said hoping he wasn't coming off to horribly neurotic.

Katia couldn't help but smile but she couldn't blame him for wanting to know more.  "Does Kaia want a relationship with me?" She questioned nervously.

"She has always wanted a family. I believe having a sister would be a good thing for her. She has always thought of Marian like a sister, so I can imagine she would love to get to know you better."

Katia chewed on her bottom lip. She knew that Marian's relationship with her sister was turmultious and she didn't want to step on any toes.  "They...they didn't pay me anything," she offered up. "I...I just wanted to know who my sister was."

"I believe you Katia." He said, but he did have some reservations.  Who wouldn't.  "So what do you say to meeting Kaia and myself? I can make us a private dinning reservation. We can have tea, cakes and a chat." 

"I'd like that," she said. "I love tea. Why don't you make the arrangements and then let me know."

"I'll text you the details once all the arrangements are made. Thanks for talking to me Katia. See you soon," Zayn said.

Katia hung up and debated texting Marian but thought against it. She wondered what Kaia had told him. She would have to wait and see what happened next.

Zayn ran his fingers through Kaia's now long hair as she slept.  She sighed in her sleep.  "I promise everything is going to be alright, baby," he said softly.  "And I'm going to work so hard on you and Marian being friends again."  He hated to admit that he was very nervous about meeting her sister.  After everything that had happened, he still found it unimaginable to know that she had a sister.  And a twin sister at that.
