"As we're looking over this, I can tell you guys that Kaari is definitely improving," Tish informed Renae and King as they sat in her office. It was December 21st, a day late of the kids arrival so they decided to get an update on the twins progress.

        "There's nothing wrong with her... mentally?" King inquired.

         Looking through Kaari's files, Tish shook her head. "She's fine, a lot of her angered stemmed from jealousy and deprivation of attention."

         King and Renae nodded.

         "She's been doing the homework that I give her, I can see how much she blames herself for things... but that's the manipulative side of her,"

         "Manipulative?" Renae repeated and she nodded.

         "She's... uh... extremely manipulative. She's very good with words, but I don't think she's aware of her actions all the time but there's a seventy-percent chance that she knows what she's doing and who she is trying to fool," she clarified.

         King chuckled to himself thinking back to a dream his mom told him about, he knew this before they did.

        "You can work on that right?" Renae asked and Tish nodded.

         "As long as her mind is busy she doesn't have time to sit in her dark thoughts... I call them her instigators, she finds it funny but I'm serious," she said and Renae nodded.

        "So she has voices in her head?" King inquired.

         "No," she flipped the page. "The way that she views things are slightly... hmm... vindictive than how we see things. Attention is her drug basically, rather it's good or bad, it makes her feel a way. If she feels like people aren't paying attention to her then you guys will have a crisis because she'll get to plotting,"

          "Just keep an eye on her... if you notice her being quiet and standoffish for too long, then approach her. Other than that, she's fine," she added.

          "What about Ray?" He asked.

         "Reign...." she trailed off closing the folder and picked up Reign's.

         Renae and King watched as she flipped through the many stacks of papers for a moment before settling on one.

          "She loves to write... like you Renae," she glanced at Renae who smiled.

           "Poetry is her God-given talent, but she has a severe anxiety disorder,"

             "How bad?" King asked trying to look at the file but Tish leaned back.

          "We're working on it, but it's pretty bad. She has this thing where she slowly shuts down if she's around large crowds for too long. If she feels embarrassed about something she hyperventilates to the point where she vomits,"

        "We've noticed dat part," King cut in.

          "In one of her poems... I can't really read it but I can say that Yae'Shawn makes her feel stable,"

         "Like you feel about Kingston," she said staring at Renae.

           "A lot of her poems are about him, her traumas and fears or you," she stared at King. "She looks at you as her biggest influencer,"

           "Interesting," King smiled softly.

          "But...." she trailed off. "She hates to feel as if she's disappointing you,"
