mw: poor parent mentioned
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Almila[/name_f] " [name_f]Mila[/name_f] " Safiye Kolfa (1) [name_f][/name_f]- pictured here with her mom, [name_f]Andi[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]- is a little girl with ironic adjacency to Kousuke, being the granddaughter of his mothers’ ex. [name_m]Spike[/name_m] often bemoans the fact he doesn’t get 1:1 time with [name_f]Mila[/name_f], but even [name_f]Connie[/name_f], who didn’t see his absolute worst traits, wouldn’t have been surprised that her parents aren’t willing to take such a risk. At best, [name_f]Andi[/name_f] knows her father views [name_f]Mila[/name_f] as a toy of sorts who he can briefly adore but not be the proper caretaker for; at worst, she’ll merely be a prop to win female attention, and neither are chances she or [name_m]Emre[/name_m] are willing to take.
[name_f][/name_f]All three of Milas’ older siblings [name_f][/name_f]- [name_m]Reece[/name_m], [name_f]Everley[/name_f] and [name_m]Braxton[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f]- have been wonderful since she came home from hospital, bickering over who could hold her when, so their parents had to draw up a rota. Things have calmed down a little as well thanks to the foster placement of her brother Braxtons’ biological sister, [name_f]Orianna[/name_f], is living with a couple who are a forty minute drive away from the Kolfa family home.
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Emre[/name_m] and [name_f]Andi[/name_f] have been eager to make time for [name_m]Braxton[/name_m] and [name_f]Orianna[/name_f] given their years of separation, which has lessened the bickering about who gets to look after and/or play with [name_f]Mila[/name_f]. The dog pictured in the photo is [name_m]Ferdie[/name_m], who actually belongs to the couple fostering [name_f]Oriana[/name_f] currently.
[name_f][/name_f]Aside from her doting brothers and sister, [name_f]Mila[/name_f] currently goes on frequent playdates with the twin children of her mom’s friend, [name_f]Jennifer[/name_f], who she met through a maternity group. Encouraging her daughter to enjoy the company of positive and caring people is especially important to [name_f]Andi[/name_f], who doesn’t want her father having any undue influence on [name_f]Mila[/name_f], as she refuses to let her daughter get hurt in any manner similar to what she went through growing up.
