Andrew was confused- She was a big time star, wasn't she? Big in the music and dancing world, supposed to be taking it by storm. Oddly, he never heard of Lexi being big, though it could be she was still trying to get out there, so Andrew left it at that. When she mentioned Jaime was still doing errands, Andrew would nod. "<b>Still the same Jaime, huh? Girl needs to learn to relax-  She's already done so much as it stands." </b>He said. Their cousin was always close to them growing up, tough that was because of their uncle and Sandra having a close relationship- Their Uncle,<a class="link link--external" data-proxy-href="/proxy.php?link=https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.thegentlemansjournal.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2017%2F01%2Fgand1-900x600-c-center.jpg&amp;hash=ee879b37c06ced99631572eca3e71747" href="https://cdn.thegentlemansjournal.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/gand1-900x600-c-center.jpg" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" target="_blank">David Linville</a>, was a businessmen, one of the 1% really. He'd repeatedly offered to help Sandra out of tight spots, offered to pay for the best schools and private lessons for Andrew and Lexi, as he considered the two prodigies, but Sandra wouldn't hear of it- She wanted the two to learn the value of working for everything they had and being independent, lessons Andrew took to heart.<br/><br/>Still didn't stop him from extending the offer when the two grew older, and spoiling them every holiday, but that was just Uncle David.<br/><br/>Jaime and her parents, David and<a class="link link--external" data-proxy-href="/proxy.php?link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.lasplash.com%2Fuploads%2F%2F59e2%2F5033982178d9d-olivia-palermo-6.jpg&amp;hash=4a4d01a2174ef8f7e3957be2d618c069" href="http://www.lasplash.com/uploads//59e2/5033982178d9d-olivia-palermo-6.jpg" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" target="_blank">Gina Linville</a>, didn't necessarily get along too well growing up- It was what she had chosen as a profession, mainly, as Jaime considered it a point of pride to have served her country in the best way she could. Gina wanted her daughter to settle down with a nice man, and David was worried he'd lose his only child, thus leading to a rift between them. That rift came to a point after she was nearly killed, along with most of her unit being lost, and spent a few years in Eastvale suffering from PTSD, though lo and behold, Sandra helped her get through the worst times and helped her reconnect with her estranged family. Though her parents still wish that Jaime wouldn't reenlist, they wouldn't stop her and would support her as best they could. Jaime only served to honor her fallen friends. Andrew had to admit- You'd need an army to break that girls spirit.<br/><br/>Ever since she left, Jaime had maintained close contact with Lexi, who had been a support pillar upon her return home, and had returned the favor in kind by offering whatever help she could. The Two were as thick as thieves, could've been sisters for all anyone knew.<br/><br/>Andrew would turn towards her, before running a hand through his hair, letting out a sigh. "<b>Okay, I guess, though I am kicking myself- I was supposed to have visited earlier, but I had deadlines to make, and I've been slaving over my work for the last two months- I had just finished things and finally took a moment to relax when I learned what happened. GO figure, right?"</b>Andrew said. Let it never be said Andrew didn't work hard- As an Orphaned Boy who came to the family with nothing but a scrapbook and dreams, he pushed himself hard to achieve what he wanted out of life, and never took the easy route. Sandra and Lexi had to constantly tell the boy to relax, but it never quite stuck. "<b>I love my job, don't think I don't- I actually got asked by Kadokawa to come design for them, can you believe that?"</b><br/><br/>Kadokawa? That was a BIG name company in Japan, Andrew would easily earn a lot with them.<br/><br/>He would then just shake his head. "<b>Didn't take it, though- I have a place with Hemsiel House Publishing. I know almost all the employees by name, one of them is my old roommate, and we're starting to make a name for ourselves- Could I earn more at other places? Sure, but I won't give up what I have for that." </b>He said. Though he swore off making connections like that again, Andrew couldn't help the feeling of community he got from Hemsiel- They were small enough that Jason managed them personally, and they were social enough that it felt more like a support group. Andrew honestly felt himself thrive under them.<br/><br/>He would turn towards her. At least they were talking decently, and not biting each-others heads off, that was a good start. "<b>How about you? Must've met many famous people during your career." </b>He said, though he wasn't being sarcastic- the life of a dancer and singer could bring many faces to the board. He wondered what it was like for her.
