The moment Trish started crying, Kay instantly felt out of her comfort zone. She walked over to the child and knelt down to her level before slowly enveloping the girl in her arms for a hug. "Hey..SHH...it's not your fault at all. It's what older siblings do okay? My sister Sam is only a few older than myself and we're not even biologically related but what I'm trying to get at is that even she stepped up the moment I was going through tough times and I lost my folks. If it wasn't for her, her folks would have never adopted me and I'd be without a home. Without a family. Josh did the same thing for you. His love for you is so much more important than anything else in the world and he's doing it all for you because he loves you, not to sacrifice anything else in his life." she explained, hoping she would understand. 

Fia couldn't help but smirk at his comment about her dad. He wasn't wrong, even in their time John hoarded anything and everything, even information if it meant he could use it against his foes and have the upper hand. "you're not wrong there" she replied. "I've just never seen this book before that's all." she commented. 

Josh paused still when she asked the question she did. It was a question he was in all honesty half expecting to be asked at some point. "If you want to be a thing with me. I'd love nothing more than to be your boyfriend." he told her with a soft smile.
