―When Doves Cry

Juliette: Was it something I did?

Juliette: Please and thank you.

Flora: No, I meant- We're not exactly together, I mean, we've both kept our distance.

Flora: Robert treats me very well, he's never been hurtful or cruel. I honestly don't know what I want right now, Bug. Right now I'm just trying to be my own person again, it's a process.

Juliette: Good. I want her safe too.

Juliette: How much does she know about what's going on? Or is that asking more than I should?

Juliette: 🤗

Flora: Always seem to miss you. Loose ends?

Flora: I wouldn't call us together, he's been dealing with some issues. But what about him?

Danny: Hit or miss ever since I was in NOLA. Yep and also, I'm supposed to be getting a phone call from you??

Juliette: Danny, I don't know if you're still mad at me or not, but this is important and I need to make sure you know about it so you can be mad at me again after; right now you need to listen.

Juliette: I don't know if you saw it on the news yet or not, but Quinn was attacked by Poppa. She's already warned Ana and I'm telling Momma so I reckon both of them will be calling you soon enough.

Juliette: Assuming Ana hasn't already. Or that she didn't tell Momma already. Or that Momma hasn't called you already if she did.

Juliette: The point is I love you and be safe.

Danny: I'm aware of dumbass is in LA. Adeline told me. I've been waiting on the phone call ever since I was told.

Adeline: You asked why, I answered as best I knew. Starting to feel like maybe I shouldn't have bothered to let you know the abusive shit was in town, Daniel.

Adeline: I feel like it's my fault.

Adeline: Call him whatever you want, point is, he's in LA.

Adeline: Attacked Quinn. Other than that, no idea.

Danny: Then fine, it's your fault.

Flora: Of course It does, Bug.

Flora: I have a surprise, I'm coming to New York for about a week. To see you kids, I hope I get a chance to come see you?

Danny: I'm currently back in LA, tying up loose ends and apparently in the same state as my donor.

Adeline: Hello, my dude.

Adeline: I suck, a lot, as a friend, so sorry for that.

Adeline: Also, I hear your father is in LA, so... beware.

Danny: Meh, it's not your fault. I've been busy as well.

Danny:....He's not my father and I'm so happy I'm moving once Maggie's out of school.

Flora: I can't begin to understand what that is like for you, Bug. All I know is Judy and I made a mistake and we should have introduced you kids a lot sooner. I will take part of the blame for that. And you don't deserve that, you deserve none of it.

Flora: Quinn and I have butted heads recently about the same issue. When it comes down to it, their is nothing we can do about her decision. I just hope she comes to realized her choices effect not only her but Rachel and the baby.

Flora: It's going to take time, someday they will come around. Just start slow, Frannie will be harder then Quinn. She warmed up to Julie and she'll warm up to you in time. She'll come to see the amazing guy you are, that you just want her to see what's right in front of her.

Flora: As for Julie, you know she just wants to help. She just wants everyone to be happy and that I also take blame for. She just wants us to be a big family, for all you kids to know each other. She's just doing the little sister thing. I wish you would have told me this when I was in New York. So I could give you a big hug and make you feel better.

Flora: I hope this helped, I hope my words are enough. Just know your family loves you, Bug. Especially me, I will do anything to make it right.

Same answer the last time you've asked me, no.
