"Come in come in!"

May said with a smile plastered on her face.
Pete put his hand on Essi's back and gestures her to go first.

Once Essi is in May let's peter in and closes the door while grabbing peters arm.

"She's pretty isn't she? Aaannnnd she's your age."

"Maaaay!"

"Sorry sorry!...don't Deny it peter Benjamin Parker!"

"Essi, this is my uncle Ben."

Peter says gesturing to Ben and then shoving his hands in his front pockets of his jeans.

"Hi how are you?"

Ben said holding his hand out to shake. Essi gladly takes the gesture.

"I'm great how are you?"

"Good as always, good as always."

"I-um- burnt dinner-"

"Like usual.."

Ben added to mays sentences

"Benjamin Parker!"

"Ha ha! I'm just messing with you hunny."

Everyone gathers into the living room with Chinese take out boxes on the coffee table. The two families talk for what seem like hours. Filling time with laughter and stories while stuffing faces with food.

"So where is the father of this beautiful girl?"

May asked sneaking a little wink at peter that causes him to roll his eyes and give a little smile.

"Um it's a long story but-"

"Mom."

Essi interrupted. Trinessa put her hand on essi's knee to assure her it was ok but Essi could tell what was going to happen.

"He um- he passed away from a elevator malfunction. He was trapped and when they were try to get him out the wire snapped and he fell 5 floors."

Snap.

Just as Essi thought the one topic brought back memories that were unbearable. She shot up from the couch catching everyone's attention and ran out the apartment door.

"I got it-"

"Uh actually I can go out there..."

Peter cut Trinessa off standing up and grabbing a blanket from the arm chair of the couch.

"Uhm-yeah ok.."

Peter raced out the door and started his search for bee. He was about the press the elevator button when he heard whimpers echo from the stairway.
