Hesitantly Looking back into the racks of colorful clothing, Nicolette barely caught onto Estrella's nervous laugh. That's so far the nicest reaction she's gotten yet from anyone who happened to find out about Kalif being the father, then again most of the people that found out weren't exactly fond of him either. As she continued to search through the colored robes, she hear Estrella ask if she had met Jaken yet, who she assumed was Kalif's son due to Estrella being Kalif's daughter-in-law. "No I don't think I have." Jaken would probably be the only child of his that she had yet to meet, except for the one that died. And as nervous as she always was, it would probably be good to explain and make herself known, it always saved less drama for later. "He won't be angry about this will he?" Nicolette knew very well that the boy would have every right to be angry with her, but she wanted to be prepared ahead of time if there was going to be tears or yelling involved. |

Yanking a pale blue set from the rack, Estrella pursed her lip thoughtfully. She'd kept enough secrets from Jaken. Now that the weight had been lifted from her chest, she was not eager to welcome it back again. Her husband was an adult, and he had a right to know about his new sibling. He deserved the truth. It was then and there that Estrella resolved not to bury the situation and hope it would never be dug up. "You want to?" she asked, putting on a casual air. Inviting a stranger into her home wasn't the smartest move; but given the circumstances, this lady wasn't a stranger at all; right? Grimacing at the rhinestones choking the collar of the newest outfit she had grabbed, she put it back. "I don't know," she answered truthfully. "But I think a sibling is something that shouldn't be kept a secret." She had to catch herself from saying to word baby instead; she might be a hypocrite at times but there was nothing to gain in revealing that. |

Estrella asked if Nicolette wanted to meet Jaken, and her first thought was to say no just because she was unsure if she would be accepted by him or not. Another thought of hers was not to care at all and accept the invite to meet him. Besides, it wasn't like they were getting married and she forced to become a mother to him or anything. She was merely going to give birth to his brother, and she just hoped he would let that slide by. "Sure, I'd love to meet Jaken." No matter what happened in the future, whether it involved her and Kalif or not, it would be nice to meet a future brother of Damianos. Placing the robes on the rack as she decided she didn't really find any she liked, she smiled at Estrella. "Your right though, it shouldn't be hidden, because I'm sure eventually he'd figure it out anyways." She shrugged her shoulders, this day was turning our to be far more interesting than she had planned, but she waited patiently for Estrella to either guide her ot take her to wherever they were meeting Jaken at. |

An hour or so later "Would you like anything in particular?" Estrella asked Niccy. With a flick of her wand, the refrigerator, freezer and cupboards doors all flung open. It was a miracle that nothing tumbled to the floor. These spaces were stuffed with every type of food imaginable. Dinner usually coincided with Estrella's latest craving- probably much to Jaken's dismay- and now she had another pregnant woman to worry about. She was glad that Nicolette had accepted her invitation. It wouldn't have really sat well with the young woman if she had had to keep another secret from her husband. She'd promised to be honest with him after he had found out about the baby and well, everything else. Edited by Estrella Drage, Dec 1 2009, 05:56 PM.

Nicolette eyed Estrella with amusement as all the doors inside the kitchen seemed to open all at once, it almost shocked her with the large amount of food there was. "Teehee no, just no junk food please. Damianos will have a fit." She patted her round tummy a moment before she gave a soft shrug, she wasn't sure if Estrella understood the whole issue with the family disliking junk food or not, but it she wanted to make Nicolette very sick..she could serve junk food as much as she wanted. "Soo...where's this Jaken of yours." She asked with a sly grin, one that had been perfected over the years of causing delightfully fun mischief. By this point, her nervousness had faded and she was eager to meet him, whether or not she will think that when they actually meet...has yet to have been figured out. |

"No junk food? He's definitely Jaken's brother then," Estrella snorted, rolling her eyes. Half of the food in their cupboards was inedible to the man of the house. Pursing her lip thoughtfully, she summoned a nearly empty jar of pickles to the counter, popping the top with another flourish of her wand. She grinned; nothing had broken this time. "Pickle? There's way more where those come from." She didn't enlighten Nicolette on just how many jars were stashed away in the cupboard. "How do you like potatoes?" the brunette asked, trying to figure out what to do for meat and vegetables. She would gladly skip the latter, though she knew that Jaken wouldn't let her get away with that. Especially since she was pregnant. "Oh, he'll be around soon I think. He's probably leaving work right now." |

Nicolette stared oddly at the thing called a pickle that Estrella had so kindly offered. Her gold eyes narrowed as she carefully picked a pickle out of the jar and inspected it carefully, it looked so funny and not to mention sent an odd smell right her way. 'Must be a muggle thing.' She sniffed it once more before she decided to take a small bite of the pickle and begin to chew. It only took a moment of chewing though for her face to pale and scrunch up in disgust. "EW!" She begrudgingly swallowed the small amount of pickle that she had bitten before she glared at the rest that she hadn't bitten out of, this had probably be the nastiest thing she had even put into her mouth. "What imbecile created this piece of work, blegh?!" She With a small snort she tossed the pickle off into a random direction and made sure to wipe her hands that were wet with pickle juice onto her robes as she attempting to get the smell of pickle off of her. "Oh I love potatoes!" Her face of disgust faded quickly into one of excitement and bubbly nature, a potato had to be one of the few foods she actually minded and didn't happen to upset her stomach while she was pregnant, however she rarely ate them despite them being one of her favorites. "Ooooh....where does he work?" She blinked, a look of innocence and curiosity beginning to take over as she wondered about the type of lives others around her lived. |

Jaken flooed into his home, and cleaned off the soot with his wand. Jaken glanced about the place, seeing nothing interesting or threatening yet. He walked further into the house, and that was when he heard another voice. An older woman. Who was she? Jaken entered the kitchen, just in time to see a pickle land at his boots. Jaken's stormy eyes fell on it, before they traveled to Estrella, as he flashed a smile at her, and then to the older woman. It wasn't Brunhilde... So, who was it? Jaken murmured, "Okay, is today 'attack Jaken with a pickle' day?" Jaken chuckled softly, before he walked over to Estrella's side, and he inquired from the blonde, "And, you are...?" |

Estrella's hand shot up to cover her mouth; Nicolette's reaction to the pickle was priceless. "Imbecile? I think not. Whoever created these was a genius!" She munched at one energetically, downing it in no time and reaching for another. She didn't make any effort to find the pickle that her guest had thrown. While some might have found Nicolette's behavior appalling, Estrella thought it was hilarious. "Oh good. That makes two of us." The young witch grinned. "He's an Unspeakable," she responded simply, though that was no longer the truth. Neither Jaken nor Estrella wanted to broadcast to the world that the former was an auror. Saying he still worked in the Department of Mysteries was easy, because Estrella had no idea what in the world he had done there anyway. She spun around to face her husband. "Hi, hon. Didn't you know about it? I wrote it on the calendar somewhere." She smirked and launched the pickle behind her arm as if she were going to chuck it. Estrella glanced at the nearly empty jar disdainfully, not looking forward to digging through the shelves for another. She figured Nicolette would want to introduce herself. |

Nicolette shook her head in disagreement and disgust as she watched Estrella down another pickle, how could she even swallow that thing without gagging or foaming at the mouth?! Trying to get the image of the the green..whatever it was out of her head she tried to think of what an Unspeakable was again, she knew they worked for the ministry...but that was about it. 'Oi, I'm a bit rusty on knowledge of the ministry.' She almost wanted to slap herself, she was being a bad Death Eater at the moment. Just as she was going to question Estrella further, she heard someone's voice and let her golden eyes lock onto whomever it was. 'This must be Jaken.' Not only did she hear his name being mentioned, he mirrored his father quite well. "Hiya! I'm Nicolette Hensel!" She beamed with a large grin, the jitters had long since gone away and now she was only filled with eager and happy thoughts of finally meeting Jaken, who seemed to be much different than she had expected. "You look so much like your dad." She added with a soft chuckle, unable to keep the thought inside her head any longer, she hoped he wouldn't mind her pointing it out. |

Jaken warned Estrella playfully, "Chuck that pickle, and I will burn all the other pickles in the house." He winked at her, to let her know that he was just kidding. He gave her a quick hug, and he turned to smile at the guest. "Jaken Styx, pleasure to meet you." He folded his arms across his chest, but her next statement hit him like a hammer. That was not what he was expecting to hear. Sure, he looked like his dad, but how would she know? Jaken raised an eyebrow at her, "Okay, how do you know what my father looks like? Are you a relative of Estrella's, and ran into my father, or what?" Jaken was not being mean, but he was being serious. This was a big coincidence, after all. |

Judging from the young mans reaction, he wasn't expecting her to say something like to him, they even did the same facial expression when they were curious about something, it was adorable. Covering her mouth so she could attempt to stifle her giggles, she tried to think of a way to ease this in so the poor boy wouldn't die of shock. "Okay, so your dad had these wicked f*cking awesome gloves that I really wanted and....okay I'm totally kidding." She had to stop halfway so she wouldn't fall to the floor laughing, plus it was totally a lie and this boy needed to hear the truth, even if he wasn't going to like it and she was probably going to get yelled at for this. "Umm actually, ever wanted another little brother?" She asked as she scratched her cheek and blinked innocently at him, she was trying her best to remain on his good side. The poor boy was going to deserve it after this. |

Jaken gave her an odd stare as she somewhat explained herself. He failed to see the humor in it, but he was not upset over it either. He was just suspicious. Jaken shrugged when she said that she was kidding. If that had been the truth, then that would not have been a good thing. Jaken knew his dad would probably just turn around and walk away from her if she pulled that stunt on him. However, it was her question that threw him off. Jaken shook his head, "Not particularly. I have Kaleb, and that is enough, plus mom died, so I can't ask for another brother. Why?" Jaken frowned, and he wondered where was all this going? This surprise turn-around made Jaken slightly uncomfortable. |

This boy was definitely not going to be pleased with the whole situation, he failed to even see the slightest humor in anything she said really. Perhaps he was a bit too worried or suspicious for his own good, but he was definitely not setting off an aura that showed he was at comfortable. 'Better just get this out and quick.' The only issue now was that she was a bit worried he would snap, he already seemed like a bundle of nerves and so far all she had told him was that she thought he looked like his father. With a heavy sigh she rubbed her cheek as she tried to think of a way to word this to him without sounding like a creep. "Listen, I'm just going to cut to the chase here." Nicolette started after a moment. She figured just coming right out and telling him would be best, and if things truly got crazy, she would be prepared for any situation, well...maybe. "I'm five months pregnant with your little brother, Damianos Gavril Styx." She stated slowly but with boldness behind it, she wanted it to sink in that this wasn't a joke. Most everyone she ended up bumping into and telling, always gave her a strange reaction. Nicolette was unsure if it was the fact that the fact that the father was Kalif, or if it was her that set people off. She winced slightly when she felt Damianos kick her from inside, he was already disliking the situation. |

Jaken nodded, when she said that she was just going to cut to the chase. It was about time anyhow. though Jaken. However, he just hoped that it wasn't anything to really stress over. But those words, what she said so boldly and slowly, it caused alarm to be written all over his face. He was going to have a brother, that was going to be younger than his own son? This was crazy, but then again, the Zhefarovich family was prone to do such things. But his father actually...did that with this woman? She did not seem like the type Kalif would really go for. Jaken shook his head and he said, "Okay, I think I have heard what was needed. Estrella...I'm going to go upstairs." He gave her a kiss on the forehead, before turning and leaving the kitchen. Jaken could not bear to even look at Nicolette after that. |
