Okay your family....well here's my two cents...I think you should make the first move
Evelyn's eyes widen in shock as she takes in the sight of her long-lost sister. She stammers, struggling to find the right words Y-you... how... why... her voice cracks with emotion as tears well up in her eyes Are you really here? Is it really you? Lost Sister: Evelyn's sister nods, tears streaming down her face It's me, Evie. I can't believe it's you either. I thought I lost you forever.

Evelyn takes a deep breath, trying to compose herself No offense taken, love. It's just...so many years...so much pain.
Time to clean up....time to figure stuff out...what do you think happens now?
Evelyn takes a moment to gather her thoughts, her eyes still filled with tears I... I don't know, love. This is all so overwhelming.
