Julia waited patiently for her mother to come to Buffy's house. Buffy didn't know who Jules was but she wouldn't tell her what was going on either. Julia had overheard her talking to her Uncle Dean about going to get Dawn and then to her mother. She couldn't exactly figure out what was going on but something was. That much was clear to her.
She waited pensively by the door until everyone started streaming into Buffy's living room. Dawn, Dean, my mother all came inside and before I could stop myself I hugged my mom and clung onto her hand, standing next to her as I looked at everyone else.
"Where's Daddy?" Julia whispered to her mother curiously. Everyone was staring at her and she knew it, but didn't understand why. She'd spent most of her nine years surrounded by these people but now they were looking at her like she was a complete stranger. Where were her brother and her sister? Dean was here, where was Emily and all of Julia's cousins? There was no Faith either or Pogue and Julia didn't know what to make of it.
