Headcanon: Cole's mother was Filipino and so was her entire family. Consequently, Cole is half-filipino himself.

Just so y'all don't get confused, here are a few keywords:

Lola: Grandmother

Kuya: Older brother/cousin

Até: Older sister/cousin

Tiya: Aunt

P.S. I have used Google Translate for the translations so if any of you are Filipino, don't kill me for translating something wrong. Okay?

Have some candy! 🍭🍬🍭🍬

"Lola Dorothy!" Cole exclaimed like a little child, gently wrapping his strong, muscular arms around a plump old woman who was busy flipping pancakes.

The woman, in her surprise, jerked up the spatula causing the pancake to go flying in the air. It would've made a parabolic arc and landed straight in the waste basket if it weren't for Cole who instinctively reached out a hand and caught it.

He took a bite just as the woman turned around to reprimand whoever had scared her. Cole moaned in delight as he gulped down the morsel. "Mmm, your pancakes are still good as ever, Lola."

The woman stood there, astounded at the young man before her. Then, her memory finally kicked in.

"Colvin!" The woman shrieked in happiness as she pulled Cole down to her short height to hug him. "Mumunti kong pebble! (My little pebble!)"

Cole chuckled as he tightened his own arms around her once more, patting her back lovingly.

The old woman grabbed his cheeks and strafed his face with kisses. She then leaned back and gestured at his tall form in amazement. "Sa inyo apos y malaki at mataas! At malaking! (You've grown so tall! And big!)"

"Hindi na rin masama ang sarili, Lola (Not looking bad yourself, Lola)," Cole commented with a smirk to which his grandmother tittered and playfully hit his arm.

"Um, hi?" came an uncertain voice from behind the reunion. Cole and his grandmother twisted around to find the rest of the Ninja standing awkwardly in the doorway of the kitchen.

Jay's eyes widened at the pancakes being prepared and he forgot his manners for a minute. "Ooh, pancakes!"

Lloyd nudged him, causing him to immediately refrain from rushing inside to try some of the food on the kitchen island.

"Guys!" Cole waved the half-eaten pancake at them and bade them to enter. "Meet my grandmother!"

The remaining five Ninja slowly made their way towards the duo, greeting the old woman with friendly smiles. Cole brought her forward, exceedingly excited for them all to meet.

"Lola, ang mga ito sa pamilya at mga kaibigan (Lola, these are my best friends and family)," Cole informed Dorothy as she shook Zane's hand.

The woman commented everyone on basically everything that she acknowledged. She especially took an interest in Kai's hair and kept asking if she could feel it with her hand. Kai, glad that someone appreciated his hairstyle, gave her full permission to do so, much to the others' amazement.
