As it became the time for their first holiday break, shyla didn't know what would happen since her father was always so busy. When he came home the day before thanksgiving, Shyla talked to her father hoping to get an answer out of him.

"Papa, will we be celebrating Thanksgiving or will we be passing it?" She asked

"Oh shit...I forgot about that. I always get yelled at by my mother for not stopping by. We'll be celebrating it with my parents, but knowing them they'd want us to bring at least something. How much do you know how to cook sweetie?" Her father asked as he was in thought before he looked to Shyla.

Shyla weakly smiled. "Everything..."

His eyes widen in shock. "What...that's not possible."

"Papa...I was a slave at that place. You saw what was recorded..." She said sadly

He sighed and shut his eyes before he got up and placed a hand on the top of her head softly. "I'll talk to my parents before letting you know. I'll tell you when I know."

"Okay papa."

Once her father left she sighed out and Shoto placed a hand on her lap. "Will you be alright?"

She looked up at Shoto and smiled at him. "Mhm, I'm alright. Just it sad to think about the things that I know how to do that the rest of my family doesn't. I felt like I was babysitting three over sized children."

"It's okay, you aren't there anymore Shyla." Shoto said before he kissed her cheek softly

She leaned against him with her eyes shut. "I know...I'm glad. Living here has lifted so much stress off of me."

Her father was over hearing the two of them speak and he knew that if anything happened to him, his precious girl would be well taken care of.

"Here let me take care of the dishes for you, you should see if your father remembered to call his mother or not."

Shyla laughed and smiled "Yeah okay thank you Shoto!"

Her father went straight to his office as he called his mother. "Hello?"

"Hey mom...I know it's been a while since I called. But there's so much going on right now with me. I hate to intrude on you but...would it be okay if I come over for thanksgiving with Shyla and her boyfriend?"

"Oh now you want to spend time with your dear old parents!? Where was this motivation years ago?!"

"Mom I was busy, getting divorced to a crazy woman and trying to keep a company from going under isn't the easiest thing. Especially when I've been trying like crazy to get custody of Shy which I've finally been able to do." He said with a sigh

"I see...I told you Amaya was no good for you. I don't mind but you must bring a dessert and a side dish. We will take care of everything else."

"I can take care of that thank you."

"Yeah-yeah. I just want to see my grandbaby, I haven't seen her since she was a child cause of you!"The elder woman said before she hung up

Shyla's father side out as he shut his eyes only to hear a soft knock on the door. "Come in Shy."

Shyla came in before she placed her hands in front of her together. "So what's the verdict papa?"

"If you can make a dessert, then I'll get a side dish. If we bring them both over we'll be alright."

"Papa, when was the last time you even cooked? When I first came here all I saw where take out bags."
