    Summary

    Former fosters siblings Shane and Ilya are reunited in the home Shane has been living in for 7 years while Ilya was bounced around through the system only to end up in an abusive home for six years.

    Now Ilya is out of that hand living with the Hollanders in therapy and figuring out how to live with with the boy he used to know when they lived through the worst period of their lives and the (almost) man he's become in the beautiful home he now lives in. Shane wants nothing more than to be friends (ish) despite the fact that he's on his own journey, remembering what happened to them back in that first foster house.

    3. This covers September (Ilya has been with them since March) to the end of senior year (the following May)
