*Chapter1*
Edna Gaines walked into the livingroom and sat down on the sofa.She bent down and
picked up a magazine off the coffee table.I’ll look at this for awhile till the doctor calls.
thought Edna as she opens it up to see a familiar face staring back at her.Tootie is a
wounderful actress.Thought Edna as she sets the magazine back down on the coffee.She
leans back and closes her eyes and thinks back to the day that her girls left.

The painful day that made my girls leave and go their separate ways was the worse day
of my life.I had just moved back with my husban Bruce and we were hopping things would
be the same.We thought wrong.

Blair was headmistress of Eastland,Jo had just become a policeofficer,Tootie was a news
reporter on Tv,And Natalie was reporter for the local news paper.Things were going well
till a young girl about the age of 15 walked into class one day and opend fire,She killed
10 students and 5 teachers,She injured 30 students and 10 teachers.When the police
questioned some students one said that she had told Bair what the girl was planing to do
and that Blair said Oh thats just talk and did nothing about it.Well the police belived the
girl and the police had Jo arrest Blair.Oh do I remember that day well.I was there when Jo
put the handcuffs on Blair.Jo had tears running down her face as she read Blair her rights.

Not long after that Natalie was given the chance to right an article she said she’d do it till
she found out that it was about Blair and that she had to write more then just about the
shooting.She worte that Blair Warner was taking money from the school to pay off her
bills.Blair was having trouble paying her bills and even took a night job to help pay them
off.So it made it easier for others to belive that.

Tootie had to give a report on the news about the shooting,Well she told more then that.
She said that the day the student told Blair about the shooting plans of one stundent that
Blair was drunk.None of us bought it but it did fit so the people bought it.We asked Blair
if she had a drinking problem but she wouldn’t talk so we thought it was the reporters
overeacting.

When Blair was found not guilty and was able to come home war broke loose the girls
were fighting over who’s fault it was for what happened.Then one day I came home from
a walk to find Blair,Natalie,and Tootie packing.I tried to talk them out of it but I couldn’t
then they left that day.Later that night Jo and Rick came by to tell me good-bye and that
was it the last time I heard from any of them.

Last year I got a card and a book from Natalie that she worte. She said she missed me
and she was fine but there no return address.Edna closed her eyes as she thought of
this.’’Edna!’’called Bruce walking into the living room.’’In here.’’said Enda opening her
eyes.’’Did the doctor call yet?’’asked Bruse sitting down on the sofa next to his wife.’’Not
yet,They said sometime between 1:00pm and 3:00pm.’’said Edna.
The phone rings Edna answers it.’’Hello,Yes,I see,Yes, How long,I’ll think about
it,Bye.’’said Edna as she hangs up the phone slowly.’’Bad news?’’asked Bruse.’’I have
cancer and a year to live if I get treatment,Less if I dont.’’said Edna.
“Then you’ll get treatment.’’said Bruse.’’I dont want treatment,I have nothing left
to live for,My girls are not speeking to me or eachother,I did get that card from Natalie
but thats it.’’said Edna with tears in her eyes.’’You have me.’’said Bruse.’’I know but Im
getting older and I will die sooner or later.”said Edna.”I know you miss the girls,They
were a huge part of your life.”said Bruse.”I wish I could see them again.’’said Edna.”I
know.”said Bruse.”I wonder what my girls are up to these days’’said Edna as she stands
up and walks upstairs.

*Chapter2*
“Thank-you come again”said Blair as she waves to a lady leaving her store.”Mom,Here
is a list of all the shoes we have.”said a13year old girl with blond hair and Brown eyes as
she walks into the room.“Thanks Morgan,Wheres your sister?”asked Blair as she takes the
clipboard from Morgan.”Half sister,She’s in the back cleaning the bathroom.”said
Morgan.”Sorry half sister,Tell her to come here when shes done.”said Blair as she sets the
clipboard down.Morgan go’s into the back.

A lady walks into the store and looks around.Blair walks over to her.”May I help you?”
asked Blair.”Yes do you sell Pretty Pink perfume number3?”asked the lady with a texas
drawl.”Im sorry we ran out Monday,The truck comes Thursday,I could give you a rain
check.”said Blair.”No No I’ll come back then,Tell your husban I said Hi.”said the lady as
she leaves.”I will,Come again.”said Blair .

I hate that Jay has to be the mayor.I knew this would happen.People telling me to say hi
for them,Him working late hours seven days a week.Well the pay is wonderful,We do live
in a very nice house better then the one I lived in when I was younger.Morgan and
Marcie do go to the best school money can by.Life is great but why do I feel like
somethings missing form my life.Thought Blair as she saw her stepdaughter walking into
the room.

”Morgan said you wanted to see me.”said Marcie a 15 year old girl with hazle eyes and
a mixture of Blond and brown hair which is up in a poneytail.”Yeah,I need you to go
home and cook dinner.”said Blair.”I hate cooking dinner,Do I have to?”asked
Marcie.”Yes,Make what ever you want.”said Blair.”Fine,When is dad comming
home?”asked Marcie as she blows a bubble with her pink bubble gum.”I dont know,Sorry
sweetie.”said Blair as phone rings.”Hello,Texas Style,Blair Gentry speaking.”said Blair as
Marcie leaves.

Later that night Blair,Marcie and Morgan are sitting around a table eatting dinner .The
phone rings and Marcie runs to answer it.”Hello,Dad!”said Marcie with a smile on her
face.Morgan drops her fork and runs over to the phone.”Dad!let me talk.”said Morgan
trying to take the phone away from Marcie.”When are you comming home,Oh I see,Fine
see you in the morning,I guess.”said Marcie as she slowly hangs up the phone.”When is
he comming home?”asked Morgan as she and Marcie walk over to the table and sit
down.”Sometime between 2:00am and 4:00am,He has some things to go over at the
College Station Courthouse.”said Marcie as she picks at her rice.”Oh,I was hopping he
could fix my three way make-up mirror.”said Morgan as she takes a sip of water.”Well I
was hopping alot of things to!But you know what its not happening because his job has
taken over his life!”Yelled Marcie.”Sorry!”yelled Morgan.”Im going to bed.”said Marcie
as she stands up then walks away.”Hey Its your turn to do the dishes.”said Morgan.”I
cooked the dinner,You clean the dishes.”said Marcie as she climes the stairs.”Morgan
Gentry clean dishes I think not.”said Morgan.”Blair Gentry give Morgan Gentry 15$ this
week I think not.”said Blair.”I get the picture.”said Morgan as she picks up some dishes
then go’s into the kitchen.”Go to bed when you’er done.”said Blair as she stands up.
“Ok!”called Morgan from the kitchen.Blair walks up the stairs.

Blair stops by Marcie’s door and thinks about going in then thinks it would be best if she
had some time alone to cool off.

Blair walks into her and Jay’s bedroom.She lays down on their bed and thinks about what
happened in the dinningroom.Marcie was right Jay’s job had taken over his life,I wish I
could go back to the day I had first met him .Or not.Thought Blair to herself.

I had alot of problems,I just had left everything I had ever known over a fight that was my
fault.Blair lets out a deep breath of air as she thinks of this.

I was having trouble paying my bills and I was going to loose the condo If I did not pay a
down payment and I really needed my own space so the night I took the money from the
school I was drunk.I thought that the many drinks I had helped me feel better so I kept on
drinking till it got out of hand.

The day a girl came and told me that another student was planning on killing other
students I had had three beers and half if not the whole whine bottle the night before.My
life was so messed up.

If I told everyone that the news papers and the news were right that I had stolen money
and had a drinking problem.Think about me Blair Warner steeling money to pay bills and
having a drinking problem no one would by it.

So after the shooting I went to jail then I was let out after they found me not guilty.So they
thought.

I went home and war broke out so I packed my bags and moved here to the very
lovely College Staiton Texas where I ment Jay and his three year old daugther Marcie.Jay
got me help for my drinking and we got married then had Morgan.If I never met Jay I
dont know where I would be.Thought Blair to herself as the bedroom door opens.

A man with light brown hair and brown eyes walked into the room.”Jay your home.”said
Blair as he walks over to her.”Yes I am.”said Jay as he sits on the bed and hugs her.”I
missed you.”said Blair as he lets go of her.”I cant stay long I have to do something,I just
thought I’d see you before I leave.”said Jay as he gives Blair a quick kiss.”Where are you
going?”asked Blair.”Somewhere.”said Jay unsure.”Ok when you make up your mind let
me know.”said Blair as she kisses him once more.Jay stands up and walks toward the door
he turns around.”Blair.”said Jay.”Yes honey.”said Blair.”I love you,Please for me and the
kids sake don’t ever change.”said Jay.”I wont.”said Blair as Jay walks out the room and
and closes the door behind him.

Two hours later Blair is waken from a deep sleep to here the loud sound of a gun go off.
Blair stands up grabs her robe and puts it on very fast and runs into the hallway almost
bumpping into Morgan and Marcie whom were already in the hallway.”Mom what was
that.”said Morgan.”I dont know,Im about to find out.”said Blair as she walks down the
stairs.”Me too.”said Marcie running down the stairs.”Wait for me.”said Morgan as she
runs to catch up.

Blair walks around the huge livingroom looking fo any sign of what happened.”Marcie
check the basement,Morgan check the second floor,I’ll check this floor.”said Blair as her
and her girls go off to the floors they were told to go to.

Marcie opens the basement door and walks down the stairs.She turns on the light and
walks around.As she turns the corner she sees something she never thought she’d see.
“Oh My God!Mom!Morgan!Mom!Morgan!Mom!”screamed Marcie.Blair rushes down
the stairs with Morgan right behind her.”Marcie what is it whats wrong.”said Blair.”D..
Dad..He..He.”Marcie could bearly speak without crying so she points over to the floor.
Blair runs over to her husbans body which is laying in a puddle of blood.Blair checks for a
pulse.”He’s dead.”said Blair as she stands up and walks over to her two girls and hugs
them as they all break down into tears.

*Chapter3*
Dorothy paces back and forth in a hospital waiting looking like she’s about to cry but
forces herself to hold back the tears.”Mom,How is Carter I came as soon as I could get
away from dance class.”said a 13 year old girl with short black hair and dark brown
eyes.”Im sorry Felicia we dont know anything yet.”said Dorothy as she sits down in a
chair.”What happened?”asked Felicia as she sat down in a chair next to her mother.”He
stoped breathing again.”said Dorothy.”I hope they find him a heart soon.”said Felicia as
she reaches over and picks up a magazine.”Me too.”said Dorothy.

”Tootie honey.”said Jeff as he walks over to his wife.”Jeff thank God your here.”said
Dorothy.”How is he?”asked Jeff as he sits next to his wife.”I dont know.”said Dorothy as
she hugs Jeff. “Carter Williams!”called a doctor as he looks around the room.”Here!”said
Jeff as he lets go of Dorothy.”Your son is very sick,I dont think He’ll make it through the
night.Im sorry.”said the doctor.”Isn’t there a heart for him?”asked Jeff.”Carter is the very
last name on the list it would take months to years to get him a heart and he only has days
left to live Im sorry.”said the doctor.”Cant you do something!Please he’s my son he has
is whole life ahead of him!He’s only 4!”yelled Dorothy as she cries.Jeff walks over to
Dorothy and holds her.”When can we see him?”asked Jeff.”Any time you want He’s in
room 223.”said the doctor as he leaves.

Dorothy,Jeff and Felicia walk into a hospital ICU room and over to a little boy with dark
hair and dark brown eyes which are closed at the moment.”He’s so weak.”said Dorothy
as she walks up to her son and kisses his head.”I wish we could help him.”said Felicia as
she kisses her baby brother’s head.”He’s a fighter He’ll make it.”said Jeff as he also kisses
his son on the head.”Im going for a soda do any of you want something?”asked Felicia.
“No thanks I think were fine.”said Dorothy as Felicia leaves.

“Mommy.”said Carter as he wakes up.”Carter,Honey.”said Dorothy as she walks over to
her son and kneels down on the floor next to his bed then takes his hand.”Mommy am I
going to die?”asked Carter.Dorothy has no idea what to say so she says the only thing
she can think of.”Well sweety some day everyone dies.”said Dorothy.”Mommy’s right,
Some day Felicia Mommy and I will die just like someday you will die.”said Jeff backing
up what Dorothy said.Felicia walks into the room.”Hey Carter your awake,How are you
feeling?”asked Felicia as she walks into the room.”Im tired I think I’ll just close my eyes
for awhile.”said Carter as he closes his eyes.

The heart machine makes a loud beeping noise.Doctor’s and Nurses rush in as the heart
machine shows a long flat staight line.“Carter No!”cried Dorothy.Jeff hugs his wife as they
all walk out of the room leaving their dead boy to rest.

Two days later Jeff,Dorothy and Felicia come home from the funeral of Carter.They walk
into the livingroom.Felicia walks upstairs and go’s to bed.

Jeff and Dorothy sit down on the sofa in the livingroom.”It’s to quiet,God I miss him so
much.He’s my little boy and I lost him I..I Lost my little boy.”cried Dorothy.”Sh...Sh...It’ll be
all right.”said Jeff as He holds his wife to comfort her while she cries on his shoulder.

*Chapter4*
“It’ll just be for the day you’ll be back home with Lisa,Sammy and Sam soon enough.”said
Natalie to a six year old girl with Dark brown hair and blue eyes.”I dont want to stay
with her I hate her!”Yelled the six year old girl.”Tabitha its just for six hours,She’s your
birth mother you have to at least see her.”said Natalie trying to talk a six year old in
to doing something that Natalie didn’t even want her to do.”I want you to be my mother
and Sam to be my father and Sammy to be my brother,I want to stay with my sister Lisa!”
Yelled Tabitha.”Tabby please just do it for me.”said Natalie to her hopefully soon to be
daughter.”Fine I will.How come Lisa isn’t going too?”asked Tabitha as she sits down on
her bed.”She has been adopted by us years ago before your birth mother had you and
Lisa has a say at what happens because she is older.”said Natalie as she sits down on
the bed next to Tabitha as the door bell rings.”I’ll get it .“called a voice from the
livingroom.”That must be your birth mother.”said Natalie as her and Tabitha walk out the
Tabitha’s bedroom.

A 15 year old girl with Blond hair and Blue eyes opens the door to see a tall lady with
brown hair and blue eyes about late 30’s standing there.”Lisa,My God I cant belive its
you,The last time I saw you was when you were what three or four.”said the lady as she
walks into the house.”Three,Right before police came to hall you off to jail for selling dope
oh and I loved the DCFF friends they brought along with them to take me away kicking
and screaming.”said Lisa sarcastically as she closes the door.

Natalie and Tabitha walk into the livingroom and up to the lady.Tabitha walks over to Lisa
and stands next to her.”Sarah Gates,Im Natalie West and this girl thats standing next to
Lisa is Tabitha.”said Natalie as she points over to Tabitha.”Hi Tabitha,It’s been years sence
i’ve seen you.”said Sarah.”Yeah six years.”said Lisa in a rude voice.”Um..Lisa why dont
you go check on Sammy to see if he’s awake yet.”said Natalie.”Fine.”said Lisa as she
stands up to leave.”Lisa dont go,Please.”said Tabitha.”I’ll be back in just a minute you’ll
be fine.”said Lisa as she leaves.“Who’s Sammy?”asked Sarah alittle nervous.”He’s my
son,He’s one.”said Natalie.”Well I think we should be going.”said Sarah as she adjusts
her purse on her shoulder.”No.I don’t want to leave!”Yelled Tabitha as she runs down the
hallway to look for her older sister.

Lisa walks into the livingroom with Tabitha wrapped around her left leg making it hard
for her to walk.”Forget something?”asked Lisa sarcastically.”Tabitha Sarah Gates,Why
did you run off like that I thought we talked about this.”said Natalie as she looks at
Tabitha.“Um.”said Tabitha as grips Lisa’s leg tighter.

Lisa lifts up her left leg and swings Tabitha onto the near by sofa.”Here sit.”said Lisa as
Tabitha lets go of Lisa’s leg.Natalie sits down on the sofa next to Tabitha and Sarah sits in
a near by chair.”Tabby,Why dont you want to leave?”asked Natalie.”I dont want to
leave!I dont like that lady she looks mean.”said Tabitha as she crosses her arms.Lisa
laughs a small laugh.”Tabby you thought that Sammy looked mean when he was born but
does he acted mean?”asked Lisa as she bends down on the floor next to her sister.
”No.Well..Only when he’s hungrey.”said Tabitha as everyone smiles.”Tabby come here
for a sec.”said Lisa as she takes Tabitha over to a corner of the room and whispers
something in her ear.

Tabitha gives Lisa a hug then walks over to Natalie and hugs her then walks over to
Sarah.”What should I call You?”asked Tabitha.”How about Sarah.”said Sarah.”Ok Sarah
Lets go.”said Tabitha.”All right.Bye.”said Sarah as they walk out the door.”Bye Natalie,
Lisa.”said Tabitha as they close the door and leave.

Natalie and Lisa walk into the kitchen to clean up some dishes.Natalie walks over to the
sink and turns the water on.Lisa picks up some plates and walks them over to the sink.
“What did you tell her that made her change her mind?”asked Natalie as she scrubs a
plate.”I told her that if she was a good girl and went that I would read her any story she
wanted me to for a week.”said Lisa.”Well it worked.”said Natalie as she sets the plate into
the drying rack.”So what time is Tabby comming home?”asked Lisa just as Sammy cries.
“Um..Lisa you finnish the dishes and I’ll check on Sammy.”said Natalie as she runs out of
the room.

Later that day the Family is sitting around the livingroom floor watching Tv and
talking about the day.”How was spending the day with Sarah?”asked Lisa.”It was ok,We
went to the park,out to lunch,Then she took me shopping at the mall where she bought me
this doll.”said Tabitha as she shows her doll.”Im glad you had fun.”said Natalie.
“Well look at the time its 8:00 I think its time for someone to go to bed.”said Sam as he
looked at his watch.”Lisa I want you to read me The Big House.You promised.”said
Tabitha as she stands up and runs down the hall.”Ok Im comming.”said Lisa as she walks
down the hall.

“So how was your day?”asked Natalie.”It was..”said Sam as the phone rings.”Hello.”said
Natalie as she answers the phone.”Yes,What she cant do that,I will fight,Im not giving
Tabitha up up to some drug dealing drunk who might have changed again.Fine,Bye.”said
Natalie as she hangs up the phone.”What was that all about?”asked Sam.”Sarah wants to
keep Tabitha.”said Natalie.”She cant do that,Tabby has been living here for two years we
almost have her adopted.”said Sam.”If we want to keep her we have to fight and Im
ready to fight.”said Natalie.”Im right behind you.”said Sam as he puts an arm around
Natalie as she leans in and rests her head on his shoulder.”I will not loose her we are so
close to her being ours.”said Natalie.”We’ll do what ever we have to.”said Sam as he
kisses Natalie on her head.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

*Chapter5*
“Mom!Callie took the tv guide away from me!”yelled a 7 year old girl with brown hair
and green eyes.She looked very much like her mother but acted just like her father.”I did
not!”Yelled Callie a14 year old girl with Blond hair and Hazel eyes.She looked very much
like her father but acted just like her mother.”Girls!Get in here right now and bring the Tv
guide!”Yelled Jo from the den.

The two girls walk into the den and Callie hands Jo the TV Guide.Jo opens the Tv guide to
about the middle.”Does this look about even?”asked Jo as both the girls shake their heads
yes.”Good.”said Jo as she takes the Tv guide and rips it right down the middle.”Callie
heres your half.”said Jo as she hands it to Callie.”Why’d ya tare it.”asked Callie.”Don’t
ask why just take it.Rosemarie here’s your half.”said Jo as she hands the half off to the
7 year old.”Thanks I think.”said Callie.”Now please leave I have to go over this case for
tomorrow,I have to defend a gangster in court even though I know all the defense in the
world would’nt save his sorry butt.”said Jo as Callie and Rosemarie leave.

Ten minutes later the phone rings and Callie runs into the room.”Mom its dad should I tell
him your not here.”said Callie.”No Um..Just record the phone conversation like I showed
you.”said Jo.”Ok.”said Callie as she leaves.

Jo picks up the phone and she hears a beep to let her know it started recording.”Hello
Rick.”said Jo getting alittle bit nervous.”Hey Jo sweety.”said Rick.”Dont Jo sweety
me.Now what in the world do you want?”asked Jo in an angry voice.”I want to come
home I want to be your husban and a father to Callie and Rosemarie.”said Rick in a way
that would make you feel sorry for him.Well almost.“You blew your chance a month
ago,It would have been sooner like a year but I loved you too much!”yelled Jo.”Don’t
you still love me?”asked Rick.”No I dont and I am doing my best to keep my kids away
from you,If you ever lay a hand on me or the kids I sware to God that I will report you
and have you in jail.”said Jo.”Well sence we are divorced and I do have visitation rights I
can do what ever I want to them and say that you did it.”said Rick.”Well not for long I am
going to make sure that the kids are mine and that you can never have any rights to see
them!”Yelled Jo.”Well I looked into that too and if I can find you an unsuitable parent I
can have Rosemarie taken away and to live with me. I would have Callie taken away but
she’s 14 so she has a say unlike Rosemarie.If I get Rosemarie I will make sure you never
see her again.”said Rick.”You Jerk!You wouldn’t You just keep away far away and I will
see you in court whenever we can get a hearing.”Said Jo getting upset.”I will be buy later
to get the kids for my two days and one night a month visit.”said Rick as he hangs up the
phone.

Jo hangs up the phone and sits there for a moment.I hope and pray that he does not lay a
hand on any of them.Thought Jo as she puts her hand through her hair.

Later that day Jo,Callie and Rosemarie are sitting on the sofa waitting for Rick.Jo looks
over at the clock then at her watch.”I wonder where he his?”asked Jo as she stands up
then walks over to the window and looks outside.”Maybe he got into a car wreck and is
laying by the side of the rode bleeding to death.”said Rosemarie as her and Callie walk
over to the window they see Rick’s car pull up.”Wishful thinking.”said Callie sarcastically.
“Do you have everything?”asked Jo as she opens the door.”Yep.”said Callie as she shows
Jo her bags.”Yes.”said Rosemarie as she lifts up her bags.”Ok give me a kiss.”said Jo as
she kisses her kids good-bye.”Bye mom.”said Callie as she runs out to Ricks car.”Bye
mommy.”said Rosemarie as she runs outside and gets into Ricks car.


Jo walks into her bedroom around 12:00am that night.She walks over to her dresser and
gets out a baggy T-shirt and a pair of baggy pants.Jo looks up at the mirror that is hanging
over the dresser.She takes her shirt off and the mirror reveals large bruise across her
shoulder.

I remember that night.Rick came home from work drunk as I have ever seen anyone
before.He wanted me to make him something to eat when I told him that I was too tired he
yelled at me and through a glass at me.It took eight stitches.Hard to belive that it was
almost a year ago when this all happened.
I still in some odd way love him,He is the father of my two children,It would have been
three but I had a miscarriage.It was going to be a boy,We were going to call him Joseph
Rick Bonnor.thought Jo to herself as a tear slowly rolls down her face.

That next night after I loss the baby he again got drunk he really went at me he gave me
the brusies on my arms you can still see them.He also gave me somemore deep cuts that
needed stiches.Those you can still see like they were done just an hour ago when they
went done a month ago.To think I lost my baby less then a month ago.Unreal.Thought Jo
as she puts on a baggy shirt.

What has my life come to?Bad things just seem find to me.Everywhere I go something bad
happens.I wonder what my life would be like if I lived back in New York close to my
friends and Family.Well at least I’d have Mrs.G to give me some advice.She always
gave me the best advice.I really could use some advice on what to do with my life but I
told my kids and myself not to tell anyone what Rick has done.The court is the only one
that knows.Its not like Rick’s going to openly admit to anyone that he Hits his wife and
Kids.Tears just roll down Jo’s face as she thinks of this.

The kids God I could kill myself for letting him lay a hand on them.The night he hit me a
year ago was when he also went after Callie.She got a D on her math test and well with
Rick being drunk he got mad and lashed out at her.She got three cuts one on her face that
looked like something that would happen if she fell while riding her bike.She also had one
on her right arm and one on her left arm.

Then that night he also went after Rosemarie.She just got a bruise on her right cheek.Thank
God the teacher’s bought the story that Callie and Rosemarie got into a fight.If not Rick
would have ended up in jail and I couldn’t do that to him THEN but now I would love for
him to rot to death behind bars till he dies.I still in a very sick and odd very odd way love
him.

Jo pulls her hair back into a poney tail and the mirror reveals a deep cut on her neck.Jo
stares at the cut.I wish that would heal.I mean how could it.He gave it to me when I forgot
to drop off something at his house two days ago.When will this all just end?Soon I hope.
I am all alone to hide my painful secrets to keep my secrets secret.Thought Jo to herself as tears roll down her face.
*********************************************
I'll post the next chapter in the afternoon
after I edit it and after I add more to The
TD on Im doing too.
Please reply and Let me know if you like it so far.Please;o)

Wow, this is REALLY well written and I'm liking it, so post more soon!

Once again--I love!!! But I have one little piece of advice.....could you please add a little humor in it? It's so sad and it's really good....you have an amazing sense of drama. It's incredibly strong but it's so heavy....maybe a little bit of humor will help balance everything? Other than that--GREAT JOB!

This story keeps getting better and better.

*Chapter6*
It had been two weeks sence Edna was told she had cancer and sence then she has spent
the time in her room looking through old pictures of the girls and waiting to die.

Bruce walks into their bedroom hopeing that maybe he could get her out of the house if
not the bedroom at least.”Edna would you like to go somewhere to eat?”he asked as he
sits down on their bed.”No thanks im fine,I’ll just have some soup.”said Edna as she turns
the page in a photo album.”Come on you haven’t left the house in weeks,You need to get
out and live your life.”said Bruce.”I am living my life while hopping that I’ll die soon,What
do I have left to live for,My girls were my life,My everything,Now they hate eachother.”
said Edna as she looks at a picture of Jo and Blair when they frist met.”Do you have the
envelope and Card that Natalie sent you?”asked Bruce.”Yes its in my top drawer.”said
Edna.”Thanks,Oh do you have the book too?”asked Bruce.”Same place.”said Edna.Bruce
opens the drawer and takes out the book and card with the envelope then leaves.

Bruce walks over to the desk and sits down.He looks at the envelope and see’s a Brooklyn
Georgia seal on it.Bruce then opens up the book to the about Arthur section and reads
it.Natalie Green West.Well I think I just found out how to cheer up Edna.I know That
Natalie’s Married to a Sam West and lives in Brooklyn Georgia now all I have to do is get
her phone number.I guess Edna never read the about Arthur section.Thought Bruce as he
picks up the phone.

“Yes get me Brooklyn Georgia please Thank-you.Hello do you have a listing for a Sam
West?Yes could I have the phone number.Yes thank-you.”said Bruce as he hangs up the
phone.Well Lets see if shes home.Thought Bruce as he picks up the phone and dials the
number.

“Natalie West?”asked Bruce.”Yes this is she.Can I help you?”asked Natalie from the other
end of the phone.”This is Bruce Gaines Edna’s husban.”said Bruce.”How did you get my
number?”asked Natalie.”I have ways,Well I wanted you to come visit us for the summer.”
said Bruce.”This is not really a good time.”said Natalie as she thinks about Tabitha.
“Well how about in a week or so.Please Its Edna,She has cancer and only a year to live
if she get treatment and she wont,Please maybe you and the others can talk some sence
into her.”said Bruce.”Others?You dont mean Jo,Blair and Tootie?If their going im

Edna has been in her room for the past two weeks looking through old photo albums with
pictures of you girls wanting to die saying she nothing to live for.Please Im bagging you.”
said Bruce.”Can I bring my husban and Kids?”asked Natalie.”Yes.”said Bruce.”I’ll be
there in a week.”said Natalie.”Thank-you.Do you know where any of the others
are?”asked Bruce.”Well when I was in College Station Texas doing a report for the
Brooklyn Book,I saw Blair at a store that she runs,Its called Texas Style,Her name is Blair
Gentry.I saw her she did not see me I had sunglasses on at the time.Other then that
Tootie’s in Hollywood.If you get a hold of Blair dont tell her I told you where she is.”said
Natalie.”I wont Thank-you so much.Bye.”said Bruce and he hangs up the phone.

phone.”Yes Could you get me College Station Texas Please.Thank-you.Yes could you give
me the phone number for Texas Style.Ok thank-you.”said Bruce as he hangs up the phone.
This is going to be the hardest one to get to come.Blair was the most effected by what
happened.Well lets see if she’s there.Thought Bruce as he picks up the phone and Dials
the number.

“Hello Texas style,Blair Genrty speaking.”said Blair from the other line.”I did get the
number right,This is Bruce Gaines Edna’s Husban.”said Bruce.”How did you get my
number?I never told anyone of you where I was going.”said Blair getting alittle upset.
“I have my ways.”said Bruce.”What do you need?”asked Blair.”Its Edna.I need you to
come see her.She has cancer.She has been locked in her room for the past two weeks
looking at old photo albums with pictures of you girls.Please come maybe you girls could
knock some sence into her.”said Bruce.”Im sorry this is not a good time.”said Blair
thinking about her husban killing himself and her kids that needed her.”Please the doctor’s
say she has a year left to live if she gets treatment less if she wont and she does not want
the treatment she rather die.”said Bruce.”I have a store to run and two girls to take care
of I cant leave them and the store to put on a happy face and make a bunch of chit-chat
with people that hurt me.”said Blair getting upset.”Please all she wants is to see her girls
again.She told me that when she had you girls she had something to live for.Now every
day for the past two weeks she has been saying either What do I have to live for or I
have nothing left to live for.You can close the store and bring the girls.I know Edna would
love to see the kids.Natalie is bringing her kids.”said Bruce.”I cant im sorry.”said
Blair.”Please. For Edna.”said Bruce.”Fine for and only for Edna.I’ll be there in a

Bruce.”Tootie live’s in Hollywood.Jo I dont know where she is.I really dont care where

Well two down two to go.Lets see if I cant get a hold of a Mrs.Dorothy William’s.Thought
Bruce as he picks up the phone.”Yes HollyWood California Please.Thanks.Yes Could you
get me a Mr.Jefferson William’s.Thanks.

“Hello This is Dorothy William’s you are talking to.”said Dorothy on the other line.”Yes
this is Bruce Gaines Edna’s Husban.”said Bruce.”Why are you calling?”asked Dorothy.
“I need to ask you to something.”said Bruce.”Make in quick I have a movie im making
and I only have ten minutes before I leave.”said Dorothy.”I Edna has cancer and has a
year to live if she gets treatment which she wont which means she only has less then a year
and she needs to see you and the other girls.She said she has nothing left to live for.If you

Jo.Please come I dont want to loose my wife I just cant.”said Bruce.”I..I’ll come my husban
and Daugther and I will be there in a week.”said Dorothy not really wantting to go but
what he said about loosing his wife got to her and Made her think about Carter.”Thank-

two years ago and he was drunk at the time and even told us their phone number.”said
Dorothy.”Could I please have it?”asked Bruce.”It was chaged two weeks after he gave it
to us but they live in Portland Maine.”said Dorothy.”Thanks bye.”said Bruce as he hangs
up the phone.

Well Dorothy was alot easier then the others.I only hope I can get Jo to come.Thought
Bruce to himself.Bruce picks up the phone.”Yes could you get me Portland Maine Please
Thank-you.Yes Could you get me a Mrs.Rick Bonnor?There is not.Um..Try a Mrs.JoAnna
Bonnor.Thank-you.”said Bruce as he hangs up the phone.

Natalie walks into the livingroom where her family is sitting playing a game of Go fish.
“Sam do you have any three’s?”asked Tabitha.”Nope go fish.”said Sam.Tabitha picks a
card.”We need to have a family meeting.”said Natalie as she sits down on the sofa.”How
long am I grounded for now?”asked Lisa sarcastically.”No ones grounded,Put down your
cards and listen.Everyone puts down their cards and looks up at Natalie.”Yeah.”said Lisa.
“Well I just got off the phone with Bruce Gaines.”said Natalie.”Yeah and..Is he some
nutcase or something?”asked Lisa as she tightens her poneytail.”No he’s not a nutcase just
my old friends are.”said Natalie.”Old Friends I dont follow what did this non nutcase
Bruce Gaines want?”asked Lisa.”Well Edna his wife helped raise me.I went to a bording
school and Blair,Jo,Tootie and I lived over the kitchen for a few years then later Edna left
to run a store and we all moved in with her.”said Natalie.”Tootie that sounds like an ice
cream flavor.”said Tabitha as she pulls some hair away from her face.”Her real name is
Dorothy.Anyway Edna is dying and We are going to Peekskill New York in a week.”said
Natalie.”In a week Natalie what about the court date?”asked Sam.”That is Tomorrow.”
said Natalie.”A week but I have a concert,You paid 50 bucks a ticket,I cant miss a Dixi
Chicks concert.”said Lisa as she crosses her arms.”Sell or give them to your frineds.”said
Sam.”You better plan on what your taking,We are leaving friday at 2am.”said Natalie.
“Two am!This sucks!First I have to miss my concert now I have to get up at one in the
moring and sleep with a bunch of people watching me!”Yelled Lisa.”Dont speak like that,
Now go do something with the tickets and both of you start to pack,I will not wait on you
if you are not ready We will leave without you.”said Natalie.”Have fun,Oh and dont
forget to send me a postcard.”said Lisa sarcastically as she and Tabitha leave the room.

“Nat,Are these these the people you hate?”asked Sam as he stands up and sits down on
the sofa next to Natalie.”Yes,I have to go I for Edna.We will be staying at the Comfort Inn
so we will only be with them for like six to eight hours a day.Thank-God.”said Natalie.
“How long are we staying for?”asked Sam.”Four weeks.”said Natalie.”Four weeks in a
hotel,You do know that will cost us alot of money.”said Sam.”I am going to do an article
for the news paper so its a company trip so they pay for all of us.”said Natalie.”Now

Natalie,Sam,Lisa and Tabitha walks into the house around three in the afternoon the next
day.Eveyone has a smile on their faces.”We won!Yes!”screamed Lisa as she and Tabitha
jump up and Down.”So does this mean your my mom and dad now?”asked Tabitha.”Yes
your our daughter now.”said Natalie.”Yes!”Screamed Tabitha as her and Lisa run to their
bedroom’s.

Sam and Natalie walk into the kicthen.Natalie picks up the phone.”Who you calling?”
asked Sam as he gets a soda out of the refrigerator.”Well I thought I’d order a pizza to
celebrate then I’d call the babysitter and ask her to drop off Sammy.”said Natalie in a
rude sharp voice.”Nat,Whats wrong?”asked Sam as he sets his soda down and walks
over to Natalie.”I just dont think I sould go,I dont get along with any of those people we
are walking talking strangers.I just dont want my kids to witness a murder.”said Natalie.
“Dont worry I will make sure no one kill you or anyone,Theres nothing I hate more then
a cat fight.”said Sam as he and Natalie laugh.


~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
* Chapter8*
Blair climbs up the stairs of the house.She knocks on a door.”Morgan!”Called Blair as
she opens the door.”Yes.”said Morgan as she puts on some lipstick.”What are you
doing?”asked Blair.”Oh im trying a new look,Like it?”asked Morgan as she puts on some
eye shadow.”Yeah its fine,Um..Wheres Marcie?”asked Blair as she pulls some hair out of
her face.”You hear that loud noice down the hall?”asked Morgan as she brushes her hair.
“Yeah I wondered what that was.”said Blair.”Well thats Marcie,Oh by the way she’s
locked herself in her room,She said she’s only comming out if she needs the bathroom.”
said Morgan.”Well I’ll see if I cant fix that.”said Blair.”Oh please dont,I kind of like not
seeing her face,Its an improvement.”said Morgan as she puts some clips in her hair.
“Morgan!Never mind,We all need to talk,Lets go into Marcie’s room”said Blair.”Do I
have to,She’s a slob there is clothes everywhere,Soda cans some still full,Its a pig pen,I
dont want to mess up my hair.”said Morgan as she fluffs it alittle.Blair rolls her eyes.”Your
hair will live now come on.”said Blair as her and Morgan walk down the hall.

Marcie lays on her bed staring at the wall while whispering the words to a song.Marice
leans on her left hand.”I hear ya smile in the dark I can even feel you breathing.When the
daylight chases the ghost I see your coat and fall apart To those hints of you im clinging
Now’s when I need them most I should get up dry my eyes and move ahead At least that’s
what you would have said.”whispered Marcie as she starts to cry.Marcie reaches over to
her cd player and turns it off.She lays her head face down on the bed and starts shaking
as she crys.”Marcie,Open the door.”said Blair from the hallway.Marcie quickly sits up
and whipes her eye then stands up and walks toward the door and opens it.

“Clean much.”said Morgan as she walks into the room and sits down on Marice’s bed.
Blair looks at Marice’s face she can tell Marcie was crying and wonders if she should say
something.”Morgan,Did a clown paint your face or did put too much paint on that paint
roller.”said Marcie as she sits down on her bed next to Morgan.Blair walks over to
Marcie’s desk and pulls out her chair and moves it over to Marcie’s bed.”We need to
talk.”said Blair as she crosses her legs.”About what?”asked Morgan as she leans on
Marcie’s headboard.”Did I ever tell you girls about why I moved here?”asked Blair.”Yeah
you and your friends got into a huge fight and you left and moved here.”said Marcie as
she moves back so her back is resting against the wall.”Well I got a call from Bruce
Gaines and Edna is dying.She has cancer.”said Blair.”They have treatment for that now
so she doesn’t have to die.”said Morgan.”She doesn’t want the treatment.Burce wants all
of us my old frineds included to come for a visit.I really dont want to go but I cant loose
her,I just lost Jay and im not loosing her.”said Blair.”I thought they hurt you.”said Marcie.
“They did,But we are going.I thought long and hard about this,Now we have a few rules
to go over,One Dad is alive and well and his Job is with the government.Two we put
smiles on our faces the minute we get off the plane.Three you two try to be nice.Four
we leave friday around 10am,Five if I think of more I’ll get back to you.”said Blair.”Fine.”
said Marcie.”Ok,Can I finish my hair now?”asked Morgan.”Yes go on.”said Blair as
Morgan stands up and runs out of the room.

“Um..Marcie,You ok?”asked Blair as she stands up and walks over to Marcie’s bed then
sits down next to Marcie.”Yeah,Im..Fine..Just..Fi..ne”said Marice as she starts to cry.Blair
hugs Marcie.”Sh..Sh..Its ok.”said Blair.”No its not.Dad killed himself.He was all I had left.
Now..N..Now I have no one.No mother no fa..ther.”cried Marcie.Blair looks up at
Marcie.”You have me.I know Im your stepmother but I love you just like your mother did.”
said Blair as Marcie lets go of Blair.”I didn’t even know my mother.She held me for an
hour just enough time to name me then..D..ie.”cried Marcie.”I know your father was with
you for the first three years of your life but..I love you just as much as Morgan.I love you.
I dont think of you as my stepdaughter but my daughter.”said Blair as she hugs Marice.
“I love you as a mother,Even though I sometimes treat you as a stranger.I do call you
mom.”said Marcie.”From now on lets think of you as my daughter and me as your
mother.”said Blair.”I’d like that.”said Marcie.”Me too.”said Blair.”Um..Mom..Do you
know why dad killed himself?”asked Marcie.”I dont know.He did leave me a letter,I found
it on the ground the night he killed himself.I have not opened it yet,To tell you the truth
Im scared of opening it.”said Blair as she reaches over to Marcie’s nightstand to get some
Kleenex then hands some over to Marcie.”Thanks.What are we going to do now?How
can we just put this behind us for a week and pretend like this never happen?What is
going to happen to us?”asked Marcie as she starts to cry.”I..I dont know.”said Blair as she
hugs her Daughter as they both cry.


Blair walks into her room holding a bottle of whine and a glass.Blair locks her door then
walks over to her bed and sits down.Blair sets the glass down on her nightstand next to
the letter Jay left her.Blair then sets the whine bottle down on her bed then picks up the
letter.I cant open it I just cant.Thought Blair as she sets it down on the nightstand.

Blair picks up the Whine bottle and opens it then pours the whine into the glass till its
full.Blair stares at the glass thinking about the last words Jay told her.
I love you Blair,Please dont Change,Promise me you wont change.Thought Blair as she
picks up the glass and holds it in her hands.”Im sorry Jay.”Whispered Blair as she takes
the glass and puts it to her mouth and finished the hole glass in one sip.”Im breaking my
promise.”Whispered Blair as she pours another glass of whine.”Im Changing.”Whispered
Blair as tears roll down her face while she takes a sip of whine.

* Chapter9*
Jo walks into the study and sits down on a sofa as she opens up a hardcorvered notebook
and starts to write.

May 18,2001.
*****************
A few days ago I got a call from Bruce Gaines,Mrs.G or Edna,Whatever you want to call
her is dying.I cant belive it,She was like a mother to me now im loosing her.This year as
you know has not been the best year for this family.

Frist back in November My father died.He died from cancer.I loved him so much how
could he just die.I miss him so much.I still have my mother.Thank God.

Then a few weeks after that Rick started to hit us.That really turned things around.I had
just gotten over the loss of my father then Rick starts in.Well he only hit us once that month
if you want to count a week as one month.

Then about two months ago I had a miscarriage.That just killed me,Almost.I really did try
to kill myself because I could not take the pain of what was going on.Rick hitting and
hurtting me.Then going after the kids.Callie hates him so much that she said that if he lays
a hand on her or Rosemarie that shes going to fight back harder then shes ever fought
before.RoseMarie loves her dad and just thinks that when he hits her that its her fault not
his.I hate her thinking like that becase its his fault.The miscarriage did not kill me as much
as Rick almost did when I told him.

Now someone else I love is dying.I cant take this anymore I dont want to go on with my
life anymore but I have to for Callie and RoseMarie.If I did not have them I would have
killed myself years ago.I thank God eveyday that I have them.They’er my lifesavers.Every
time I want to die I look into their eyes and Know it would hurt them too much if I killed
myself.I know that the court would give them to their father and that Rick would hurt them
and might blame them for my death and I just cant do that to my girls.

Well Bruce wants my kids and I to spend part of the summer with them and Talk Mrs.G/
Edna into getting treatment.I know that I will make her get treatment I am not loosing two
people to cancer its not happening.

The worse part of this is that I have to spend Time with Blair,Natalie and Dorothy’Tootie’
I thought after I moved here that I would never have to even hear their names again and
here I am running off to New York to meet them.At least we get to stay in a hotel.Callie
cant wait to go.She said she’d go anywhere to get away from Rick.RoseMarie wants to
stay with Rick but I told her she had to come.We leave friday afternoon,Two days of
driving is going to kill us but we are spending the yearly trip money on hotel’s and on
food.Callie said we could sleep till noon and fake being sick or say that I have an
important phone call to make so we only have to stay for five hours or less.She got her
evil but very smart thinking from me.

I hope that I win in court.I love RoseMarie and I cant let Rick take her away and hurt her.
I wish that this never happened that Rick never got drunk that night.Its amazing one drink
can do to a person.

When Rick brought the girls home last night I saw a bruise on RoseMarie’s arm.I asked
Rick what happened.He told the girls to go upstairs then he said that she fell.Then he told
me that if I ever hurt the girls that he would kill me.He gave me something so I would not
forget.A black eye.

Later when I asked Callie what happened to RoseMarie she said that she ‘Fell’ right on
the edge of the coffee table.Callie said that she foght back and punched Rick in his
stomach.Then he slaped her on the face leaving a small brusie that could easily be coverd
up by some make up.

I wanted to die right then and there.I could not stand to see Rick hurtting my babies.I
wantted to go in to my closet and get out the gun but then I looked into RoseMarie’s eyes
and saw that she need me to protect her.I cant take it anymore I just can’t.

As Jo signed her name she stated to cry.Jo buried her in her hand as she starts to shake as she cries harder.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*Chapter10*
Dorothy stares at a picture of her son Carter that was taken a week before he died.
Dorothy puts two fingers to her lips and kisses them then places them on the picture of her
son.I miss you Carter.I love you so much,You are my baby boy.I will always love you.
Thought Dorothy as she stands up and walks upstairs.

Dorothy walks into a famliy room that is in the middle of the hallway.She see’s Jeff going
over some old football plays for next season.She then looks over to a beanbag chair that
is on the floor to see Felicia reading a book on how to put make-up on so you dont look
like a clown.”We need to talk.”said Dorothy as she sits down in a chair.Jeff and Felicia
look up from the books their reading.”Im sorry I stayed on the phone too long this
morning wont happen again just dont take the TV away.”said Felicia kinda worried.”Its
not about that.”said Dorothy.”Oh thank God.”said Felicia as she lets out a breath of
relief.”Although we do however need to go over your phone time.”said Dorothy as Felicia
gets a worried look on her face.

“The other day I got a call from Bruce Gaines,Edna’s Dying and he wants us to come visit
them hopping it would help Edna to go ahead with treatment for her cancer.He also said
that Blair,Jo and Natalie were going to be there too.Now I gave it a hole lot of thought
and I no that is we if you want to are going.I booked a flight for Friday morning around
4:00am.”said Dorothy as she moves her hands as she talks.”Im behind you if you want
to go.”said Jeff.”Four in the morning!I need my beauty sleep if I want to look my best.”
said Felicia in shock at the time they have to get up.”We will have a two hour lay over in
Iowa then an hour and a half lay over in Pennsylvania then a straight shot to New york
where we meet Bruce and the others.We will be riding with him in a large van of his back
to the house.”said Dorothy as she again moves her hands while she talks.”Is Edna going?”
asked Jeff.”To the airport no,Bruce wants to surprise Her by us showing up on her
doorstep.”said Dorothy.”I cant wait,I love to fly in an airplane,To be so high up in the air
and looking down at the clouds and houses when you get that close.I love hit when we
first take off its a great way to get your blood flowing.”said Felicia as she dreams of
flying.”Its also a great way to loose you lunch.”said Jeff as he makes a funny face.

Dorothy Lays awake that night in her bed next to Jeff whom is sound asleep while snoring.
“Jeff Can it!”yelled Dorothy as she hits him with a pillow.Jeff sits straight up in bed.”Huh,
Whats going on?”asked Jeff as he trys to wake up.”You were snoring.”said Dorothy as
she puts her pillow behind her.”Oh is that all.”said Jeff as he lays back down.”Is that all?!
That is not all!How can I sleep and wake up at 5:30am if its 3:00am and I haven’t even
closed my eyes all night because you are sawing wood so loud that the cat’s next door
are up meowing!I tell you thats not all no sir!”Yelled Dorothy as she crosses her arms.Jeff
sits up.”Anything else bothering you other then my snoring?”asked Jeff as he puts a hand
on Dorothy’s Shoulder.Dorothy shakes his hand off her shoulder.”No im fine.”said
Dorothy as she lays her head back on her pillow.”If you say so.Good-night sweetheart.”
said Jeff as he lays down and closes his eyes.

An hour later Dorothy looks over at her clock then over at Jeff.To hit him with a pillow or
not to hit him with a pillow that is the question.Thought Dorothy as she reaches behind
her and holds the pillow like shes about to hit Jeff.Ah,Who cares,I might as well get
dressed I’ll take a nap later on today.Thought Dorothy as she puts the pillow down then
stands up.

About thirty minutes later Dorothy walks into her kitchen.She walks over to the cabinet
to get a coffee mug down,Then she walks over to the sink and pours some water into the
mug,Then walks over to the microwave and sets the mug in there and turns it on.

About two minutes later she takes the mug out of the microwave then puts a coffee bag
which looks like a tea bag into the mug then sits down at the table.I wonder what I would
be doing at this very moment if that fight never happened,If we never left when we did,
Would we still be living in New York?Thought Dorothy as she takes a spoon and stirs
some cream around in her mug.Life can be funny sometimes,Your on the top of the world
everything is going as planed life is well..Perfect,Then something happens and you sort of
fall,Your life is turned upside down your perfect world has been snatched right out of your
hands ans your perfect world isn’t well..Perfect anymore.Thats life for you,Oh is that life.
Life sure has,Can and will always be interesting at time.Too bad we cant change the past
the way we can change the future.Tought Dorothy as she takes a sip of coffee.

I am going to try to put the part where they

This is sooooooooooo AWESOME!!! I love it!!You're an AWESOME writer!!

Im not sure if im going to do my 'Idea' or not but im thinking about it.Well here's more....
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*Chapter11*

“Flight 231 to Peekskill New York now boarding at gate 5.”Said a voice over the
intercom.”Ready to go?”asked Natalie as she looks over at Lisa whom rolls her eyes.”I
guess.”said Lisa as she stands up and picks up her carry on.”Where’s Sam...Daddy.”
said Tabitha as she stands up and picks up a back-pack.”Right here,I just had to buy some
juice for Sammy’s Bottle.”said Sam as he rushes over to his famliy and hands Sammy to
Natalie.”Here you take my carry on and I’ll take the dipper bag.”said Natalie as she
takes the dipper bag.”Yo mom,We need to get on the plane.”said Lisa as she adjusts her
back-pack strap on the shoulder.”Right ,Right,Lets run,I’ll race you.”said Sam as he and
Tabitha run up to the Gate while Lisa and Natalie walk.

Natalie opens her eyes an hour later to see Sam and Sammy asleep in the two seats in
front of her and Lisa looking out the window as she listens to he cd player and Tabitha
coloring in a note book.”Hey Tabby thats very good.”said Natalie as she looks at her
daughter whom is drawing a picture of a puppy.”Mommy could we have the puppy in the
picture?”asked Tabitha as she looks up at Natalie.”I’ll think about it.”said Natalie with a
smile as she touches Lisa’s shoulder.Lisa turns her head toward Natalie then takes her
headphones off.”Yeah.”said Lisa.”Do you think you could turn that down a bit?”asked
Natalie.”I could,If I wanted to.”said Lisa.”Please,I really dont think that the people on this
plane want to hear Six pack Summer.”said Natalie.”Fine,I’ll turn it down a bit.”said Lisa
as she puts her headphones back on then turns the volume down.

Well only a few hours till we reach Peekskill New York.Oh How I wish I just let the phone
ring that day.Thought Natalie and she leans back in her seat.I really do not want to go
and put my family through the pain that made me leave.I cant do it.I want this plane to
turn around but its too late to look back now.Thought Natalie as she closes her eyes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Mom,Mom,Wake up.”said Felicia as she shakes Dorothy to wake her up.Dorothy moves
alittle as she wakes up.”Huh what,Is it morning yet?”asked Dorothy as she sits up in an
airplane chair.”Its been morning sence we left.”said Felicia as she pulls her hair behind
her ear.”Oh,What is it then?”asked Dorothy trying to wake up.”I need to go to the
bathroom.”said Felicia as she stands up.”You woke me up for that.”said Dorothy.”I had
to your feet were in my way.”said Felicia as Dorothy lifts her feet up and Felicia leaves.

“Dorothy,What time is it?”asked Jeff about a minute later.Dorothy looks down at her
watch.”5:30 We should be in Pennsylvania soon.”she said as she looks over at the
bathroom to see Felicia in a line.”I cant wait till this is all over with and we’er on the return
flight home.”said Dorothy as she leans back in her chair.”Dont worry if things get out of
hand we’ll leave go back to the hotel and cool off.”said Jeff as he puts an arm around
Dorothy.”Thanks but if things get too out of hand we leave.”said Dorothy as she lays her
head on his shoulder.”I think that you and your friends need to make up.”said Jeff as
Dorothy sits up in her chair and looks over at him.”Bit your tongue.You are just like a man
you know that.”said Dorothy as Jeff laughs.”Dorothy I am a man.”said Jeff as he laughs.
“I know and thats what I hate,Men cant stay mad at people long,Ha!I say that I will not
make up with any of those people.”said Dorothy as Felicia sits down in her seat.”We are
now in Pennsylvania please fasten your seat belts as we prepare to land.”said a voice
over the intercom.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Lets see..I left my make-up bag in the bathroom the last time I saw it..I think?Mom!”called
Morgan as she walks into Blair’s room.”Yeah.”said Blair as she puts a hairbrush in a
ziplock bag.”Have you seen my make-up bag?”asked Morgan as she puts one hand on
the wall and the other hand on her hip.”Nope,I have to use ziplock bags,I think we lost
them when we cleaned last week.”said Blair as she adds some make-up to another ziplock
bag.”Dont remind me.I cant Belive That I Morgan Monica Gentry cleaned house,The bath
room if you can belive it.”said Morgan as she moves her hands as she talks.”Oh but you
did live.”said Blair sarcastically as she zips up the ziplock bag with her make-up.”I wished
I’d died.”said Morgan.”Did you ask Marcie if she saw your make-up bags?”asked Blair
as she adds some hair stuff into the ziplock bags.”See didn’t see them.”said Morgan.”Did
you ask her if she had some you could use for the trip?”asked Blair as she zips up the
ziplock bag and throws both ziplock bags into a larger tote bag.”She is using hers for her
make-up and her country cd’s.I dont know anyone other then her and Daddy that could
stand that music I mean none of my friends listen to it.”said Morgan as Blair throws a can
of hairspray into the tote bag.”Thats because all of your friends are stuck up snobs with
nothing better to do then to listen to waves beatting against rocks.Mom I found your
sunglasses.”said Marcie as she hands the sunglasses to Blair.”Thanks.”said Blair as she
takes the sunglasses.”Well your friends only take one shower a week.”said Morgan.”Well
when you look into a mirror it brakes.Like that time in France when you looked into that
100 year old mirror it took one look at yur ugly face and shattered.”said Marice.”Yeah
well...Your rooms a pig pen.”said Morgan.”Big deal at least I dont look like a freak show
when I leave the house.”said Marice as Blair puts one hand on each girls back and leads
them out the bedroom door.”Take your fight elsewhere.Dont forget to finish packing!”
Yelled Blair as she closes then locks the door.

An hour later Blair zips up her last bag and sets it on the floor then sit on her bed.Thank-
God Im done.Thought Blair as she looks over at her nightstand then picks up the letter
from Jay.Maybe I’ll open it some day if I ever get enough courage to do it.Thought Blair
as she stands up and walks over to a suitcase on the floor.Blair picks up the suitcase and
sets it on the bed.Blair opens the suitcase then sets the letter on the bottom of the suitcase
under some clothes then looks up to see a wedding picture of her and Jay standing outside
next to a small lake.Blair stands up and walks over to the picture.”I miss you honey,I miss
you more then you’ll ever know”said Blair as she picks up the picture and walks over to
the suitcase and sets it in the suitcase next to the letter.Blair closes the suitcase then picks
up her four bags and walks out of the room closing the door behind her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Jo Wait!”called Rick as he chaces after his wife and Kids in a parking lot.Jo Callie and
RoseMarie Turn around.”Rick what do you want.”said Jo in a rude sharp voice.”I want to
talk to you.”Said Rick as he walks closer to Jo.Jo takes her keys out of her purse.”Callie
RoseMarie go start up the car.”said Jo as she hands the keys to Callie.”Fine.”said Callie
as she shoots Rick an evil look then her and RoseMarie leave.

“I dont want RoseMarie to go with you for the summer,I want her to stay with me.”said
Rick.”I really could care less of what you want.The court said that RoseMarie could stay
with me till the court decides Where she will live permanently.”said Jo as she gets upset.
“Jo,I want RoseMarie to live and stay with me,I dont want you to fill her head the way you
did with Callie,Making my own Daughter hate me.I dont want RoseMarie to hate me.”said
Rick.”Look Callie has a right to hate you,I hate you and for your information I did not ‘fill’
Callie’s head with anything.See Callie is old enough to know what is going on better then
RoseMaire.Some day all three of us will hate you and you will be all alone to drink
yourself to death and no one will even care!”yelled Jo.”Dont you dare yell at me you are
my wife.”said Rick getting mad.”Thats where you are wrong,Im not your wife anymore,I
never was,I married a kind gentle Rick Bonnor not a Mean,Hateful,Dunk who beats his
wife and Kids!”Yelled Jo.”If I find one hair out of place on RosieMarie’s head or any
bump or bruise I will blame it all on you no matter what happened.”said Rick.”You cant
do that.”said Jo.”Want a bet,Here is something so you dont forget what I just said.”said
Rick as his face gets red and his eyes get an angry look in his eyes.Jo has a look of fear
cross her face as Rick lits his hand.

Morgan as she looks on the conveyor belt for her bag.”Well at leat one good thing has
happened so far,Morgan lost her make-up bag.”said Marcie as she smiles.”Well at leat I

of her purse.”Ha Ha Ha very funny.”said Morgan as she puts the bag over her shoulder.
“Want some gum.”asked Marcie as she holds the pack out to Blair and Morgan.”No

she bends down and picks up her suitcase.”No thanks,Gum is for people who were rasied
in a barn.Like your bedroom.”said Morgan.”You are asking for a black eye.”said Marice
as she holds up her fist.”Bring it on.”said Morgan as she drops her bags on the ground.
“You got it.”said Marice as she also drops her bags.Blair runs in between them.”There
will not be blood shed today or as long as we are here visting.If there is any blood shed
I will make sure that Marice will not get her country music and Morgan will only get only
powder for make-up for two weeks.”said Blair as she looks her girls in the eyes.”What if
there was no blood shed?”asked Marcie looking like she is about to hit Morgan.”Then
only one week.”said Blair.”Not worth it,I’d need my make-up to cover up my black eye.”
said Morgan as she bends down and picks up her bag.”Wimp.”said Marcie as she bends
down and picks up her bags.”Good,Now lets find the food court.”said Blair as she Marcie
and Morgan walk down the hall.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bruce Gaines walks around the house making sure that nothing is out of place and also
making sure that Edna has no clue to what is going on.”Why are you cleaning the house?”
asked Edna as she walks down the stairs.”It needed a good clean.”said Bruce hopping
Edna would not catch on.”Oh,You just let it rot to death like im going to do.”said Edna
as she sits down on the sofa.”Edna now don’t say that,You will live.”said Bruce as he sits
next to his wife.”I dont want to live,I mean why live when you have nothing to live for.”
said Edna as she rests her head back on the sofa.”You wont be saying that for long.”said
Bruce as he stands up.”What just do you mean by that?”asked Edna as she stands up.
“You’ll see.”said Bruce as he kisses Edna on the cheek then walks toward the door.
“Where are you going?”asked Edna.”To bring you something that you can live for.”said
Bruce as he leaves.

“I want a root-beer.Please.”said RoseMarie as Jo pushes the botten on the soda Machine.

RoseMarie as she takes a sip of the soda.Callie then opens her soda and takes a sip.
“Cal.”said RoseMarie.”Yeah.”said Callie.”What do you think these people will look like?”

Callie.”Well Mommy said that they hurt her bad so thats why she left,Will they hurt her

*Chapter13*
About twenty minutes later a large van and a red car pull up to the Gaines’ house.”Mom
I thought we were going to the hotel first.”said Callie as she steps out of the car then
closes the door.”We will in about a half an hour.”said Jo as she opens the back car door
for RoseMarie.Bruce and the others walk over to Jo,Callie and RoseMarie.”Here’s the

“Nice to meet you all.”said Edna.”Um...How about Jeff,Sam and I take the kids out

go check into the hotel before they give the room to someone else.”said Jo as she stands
up.”None of my girls and there family will stay at a hotel,We have five rooms,Three
bathrooms and we can find cots and stuff for beds somewhere.”said Edna.”We cant.”said
Blair.”I will not take no for an answer.”said Edna.”Then I guess we’er staying,I think it’ll
be fun.”said Sam just as everyone looks at him like they are planning to kill him.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*Chapter14*
Later on that night Bruce,Jeff and Sam took the kids out and now it is Just Edna,Blair,Jo,
Natalie,Dorothy whom are sitting in the livingroom.”Girls tell me what have you been up
to.”said Edna.”Raising two kids,Running a shop,Thats about it.”said Blair as she pulls some
hair out of her face.”Well Im a lawer raising two kids.”said Jo.”I have done a few movies
but Im thinking of doing some plays and taking care of Felicia.”said Dorothy.”I am a
writer for the local news paper and I have come out with a few books.Im rasing three
kids.”said Natalie.”My its good to see you girls here grown up with husbans and kids.”
said Edna.”I guess.”mumbled Blair under her breath.”Speaking of husbans Jo ,Blair where
are yours?”asked Edna.”Rick had a show out of town.”said Jo really fast.”Jay works with
the government and he could not get away.”said Blair nervously.

There is ten minutes of silence.Everyone looks at each afraid to say something not knowing
how the other one would react.”Come on girls say something you’ve bearly said two
words to eachother sence you walked in.”said Edna.”There is really nothing to say.”said
Blair.”We could talk about your husbans.”said Edna.”You’d really love to hear about
mine.”said Blair sarcastically.”Yes I’ve never met him.”said Edna.”We’ll your not going to
meet him!”yelled Blair as everyone looks at eachother.”Blair you dont have to yell,We
can talk about Rick.”said Edna.”I’d rather not.”said Jo.”Come on i’d love to know what
he’s been up to.”said Edna.”Look I don’t want to talk about Rick!I dont want to stay here
and I never wanted to come!”Yelled Jo.”You didn’t want to come!I have other things to do
then be stuck here with a bunch of people who hurt me!”yelled Blair.”Edna im sorry but
when the kids come back we’er going to a hotel,Call me we’ll have lunch.”said Jo.”No!

Please.”said Edna.”Look this is my life!So stay out of it!”yelled Blair as she as grabs her
purse and walks toward the door.”Blair where are you going?”asked Edna.”For a drive,
tell Marcie and Morgan that i’ll be back later.”said Blair as she slams the door as she
leaves.Just as the door closed it opened again and Bruce,Jeff,Sam and the kids walked in.
“Hey where did my mom go?”asked Morgan as she set her purse down on the desk.”She
went for a ride and to tell you two that she’d be back later.”said Edna.”What!You let her
leave mad.How could you!Ugh.”said Marcie as she throws her arms up in the air.”Whats
the problem she just went for a drive.”said Bruce.Marice leans over to Morgan and
whispers in her ear.”Yeah right to a bar to get drunk stupid.”Whisperd Marcie in
Morgan’s ear.”Oh yeah,You got that right.”said Morgan as everyone looks at eachother.

times but im sure I was when I was fifteen.”said Natalie with a little laugh.”You were an
angel most of the time.”said Edna.”About two years ago we found out that Lisa had a
younger sister Tabitha whom was four at the time.We just adopted her,She is the angle of
the two girl’s.”said Natalie as Jo walks into the kitchen.”Um..Keep talking..I just came in
to get a glass of water.”said Jo as she walks over to the sink.”Jo come join us.”said Edna.
“Um..Well..I have to give RoseMarie her Teddy bear.She cant sleep without it.”said Jo
then takes a sip of water.”If I know seven year olds they will sleep without it.”said Edna.
“Well...I..dont..Know.”said Jo.”Come on Jo.”said Natalie as Jo looked shocked.”You
really want to talk to me.”said Jo as she sets her glass down on the table then sits down in
a chair.”Well....We will be spending the summer here might as well be nice so no one kills
me.”said Natalie with a smile.”Yeah Blair looked like she wanted to kill someone before
she left to go God knows where.”said Jo.”I have a feeling that Marcie and Morgan know
where Blair is right now.”said Edna as Sammy starts to cry,Natalie reaches over and takes
Sammy.”Well wherever she went Marice and Morgan are in the livingroom waitting up
for her.”said Jo as she turns her head to revile a cut on her neck to Edna and a large
bruise on her cheek to Natalie.”Jo my God,What happened?”asked Natalie in shock.”Oh
Jo.”said Edna alittle worried.”Nothing happened I...I..Um..RoseMarie must be looking for
this.” said Jo while standing up then leaves in a hurry leaving Edna and Natalie in shock.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Well now its two am and she’s still not back.”said Marcie while looking at her watch then
over at Morgan asleep on the sofa.Well I guess I could let her sleep till mom comes in,She
was a great help last week the night after Daddy killed himself.I wish that he would be
alive right now that way mom whould not get so drunk.Well its not the first time i’ve seen
her drunk,The first time was before Daddy married her I was two.Then she stoped,Daddy
helped her.Then Morgan was born on my third birthday if you can belive that.Well My
life cant get any worse.Could it?Thought Marice as she leans her head back on the sofa.

Around Three am Marcie is woken up by the door opening.Marcie sit straight up on the
sofa and turns around to see Blair stumbling in.Marcie shakes Morgan.”Wake up Mom’s
back.”said Marcie as Morgan sits up.”What time is it?”asked Morgan.”Three am.”said
Marcie as she and Morgan run over to a very drunk Blair.”Oh hi’s girl’s.”said Blair
slurring her words.”Come on mom lets go to bed.”said Marcie as she and Morgan each
grab one of Blair’s arms.Blair shakes them off.”No I can do it.”said Blair as she starts to
walk then trips over her two feet.”Oops I wuess I need a wittle bit of help.”said Blair whlie
slurring her words as she talks.” I ‘Wuess’so.”said Marcie qouting Blair sarcastically Then
Her and Morgan help her up and walk her to a downstairs bedroom.

Awesome!

"You're born,you move on,you die,that's life."-Jo
Nancy McKeon is #1!!

Here is the next chapter I think that you'll
like it.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*Chapter16*
“Morning everyone.”said Sam as he walks down the stairs and over to Natalie whom is
sitting on the sofa.”Moring.”said Everyone as Sam sits down next to Natalie.”Where are
the kids?”asked Sam.”Tabitha and RoseMarie are playing with sidewalk chalk out front,
Lisa and Callie are upstairs,Felicia and Morgan are in Dorothy’s bedroom painting their
nails and Marcie is in the kitchen with Edna having something to eat.”said Natalie.”Is
anyone in the downstairs bathroom?”asked Jo as she stands up.”No.”said Bruce as Jo
leaves.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Mrs.G could you pass the butter?”asked Marcie as she picks up her knife.”Here you go.”
said Edna as she hands the butter to Marice.”Thanks.”said Marice as she takes the butter.
“How did you sleep?”asked Edna.”Ok,I guess.”said Marcie as she butters her toast.
“What does I guess mean?”asked Edna.”It means I kinda slept ok.”said Marcie as she
takes a bite of her toast.”Anything on your mind?”asked Edna hopping to get something
out of her about Blair.”Um..Lots of things.”said Marcie then takes a drink of orange juice.
“Would this have anything to do with your mother?”asked Edna.”Which one.”mumbled
Marcie so that Edna could not hear her but did.”What do you mean which one?”asked
Edna.”My father was married before to my mother whom died when I was born,Blair is
my stepmother and Morgan is my half sister.”said Marcie as she finishes her last bite of
toast.”Do you or Morgan know where Blair was last night?”asked Edna.”No dont think
so.”Lied Marcie as she stands up and walks her plate and glass to the sink and sets them
down.”Allright.”said Edna as Marcie leaves.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I cant belive I still have a scar.It was like he hit me this morning instead of a day ago.
Thought Jo to herself as she drys her face off then walks into her bedroom.

Jo walks over to a mirror then takes her make-up out of a bag and puts some make-up on
the face to cover up the bruises and cuts.My life has come to this,I never thought that I
would have to lie to my friends well..Edna is still my friend she’s like a mother and I could
never be mad at her and Natalie...well I think that we will make up soon then Not too long
after that Dorothy and I will.

God I wish I could tell someone,Maybe I’d feel better.“Ouch!”Yelled Jo as her fingernail
scraps one of her cuts and blood comes out.”God.”said Jo as she looks through her
make-up bag and pulls out a band-aid and some cream.Atleast everyone else is having a
better life then I am.Thought Jo to herself as she puts some cream on her cut then a
band-aid over it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Blair wakes up to the sun shining in her window and to her head pounding and aching.
Blair looks over at a clock.”12:00pm,God I should have been up hours ago.”said Blair as
she sits up and runs a hand through her hair.Ugh.I wonder where Edna keeps the Advil.
Thought Blair to herself as she stands up.I think I’ll go find out.Thought Blair as she walks
out of the bedroom.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Well good afternoon Blair and How did we sleep?”asked Edna as Blair walks into the
livingroom in the same clothes she wore yesterday and slept in last night.”Fine.”said Blair.
“Blair you look like the living dead.”said Jo as she looks at Blair while walking by.”Jo I
dont feel like your rude remarks,Do you have any Advil or something for my head?”asked
Blair as she puts a hand to her head.”I saw some in the bathroom downstairs when I was
looking for a washcloth.”said Jo.”When did you get a bathroom downstairs?”asked
Blair.”89,Blair you feeling allright?”asked Edna.”Yeah,Um..Where’s Morgan and
Marcie?”asked Blair.”Bruce and the other guys took the kids to the park and to some
other places,They just left.”said Natalie.”Oh ok,Im going to get that stuff for my head.”
said Blair as she leaves.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Blair walks into her bedroom five mintues later.She closes the door behind her then walks
over to her bed and lays down.I cant belive My life has really come right down to
drinking.My life was great for 13 years,I was on top of the world so I thought.The night
my life fell apart was the night Jay died.Marcie must feel just as bad as I do,She found
him,He was all she had for two years.My famliy is all I have to show of my life, Now I am
alone to raise two teenaged girls whom hate eachother.Jay was my everything.Now he’s
gone.Thought Blair as tears just run down her face like water from a waterfall.

Still crying Blair stands up and walks over to her suitcase.She bends down and sets it down
on the bed.Blair sits down on the bed next to her suitcase and opens it.She digs around till
she finds the wedding picture of her and Jay and the letter he left her before he killed
himself.”Now to find out why you did this to me.”said Blair as she takes the letter out of
the suitcase then Reads it.

My Dear Sweet Blair,
By now you know I’m dead,I dont blam you for being mad or upset.I just cant take it
anymore I love you so much and I hate doing this but theres no way I can move on.I miss
my wife so much It hurts.When I look at Marcie I see my wife and I just want to die.I love
you so much I will miss you every day and I hope you will miss me.Be good to Marcie and
Morgan you’ll all they have.

Blair before I left the room a while ago I told you not to change,Please dont I know you
too well and I know that you will go for a drink and that will hurt everyone around you.
Please for Marcie and Morgan’s sake do not go back to the way you were when I ment
you.I dont want you to put the girls through that like you did me.

You were my everything and now its time to go and put the pain of this world behind me
once and for all.Tell Marcie and Morgan that I love them and that I had to do what I had
to do.Dont worry about getting a job all that is covered you can still keep the store if you
want it.
---Love forever Jay Gentry

Crying Blair puts the letter at the bottom of her suitcase then takes out the picture of her
and Jay at their wedding.”What about me!Im your wife!Your wife has been dead for 15
years!Love forever yeah thats a laugh.Well here’s something Jay!I’ve changed and I will
keep changing till I forget you and everything about you!”Yelled Blair as shoves the
suitcase off her bed then stares at the picture for a second then throws it across the room
watching it hit the wall. As the glass breaks Blair buries her head in her hands and cries
uncontrollably as she lays down on her bed.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*Chapter 17*
“What was that?”asked Dorothy as she looks worried.”I think something broke.”said
Natalie.”I think it came from Blair’s room.”said Jo as she stands up from her seat and
walks very fast to Blair’s room.Mrs.Garrett,Dorothy and Natalie follow right behind her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My life is over,I have nothing left.Thought Blair while crying in to her hands.I need a drink
maybe I’d feel better.Well for a while,Thats better then nothing.Thought Blair as she
hear’s a knock on the door.Blair quickly sits up and whipes her eyes with her sleave.”Its
open.”said Blair whlie trying to make herself look better.

The door opens and Jo walks in followed by Mrs.Garrett,Natalie and Dorothy.”Blair do
you know what that noise was?”asked Edna as she walks over to Blair.”I..I..Dropped
something.”said Blair while keeping her face down so no one could see that she was and
still is crying.Jo walks over to Blair and sits down on the bed next to her.”Blair you ok,You
hardly have said anything sence you came here.”said Edna.”I...Im..Fine..Really.”said Blair
still keeping her head down.Jo looks over at Blair and with her right hand she raises
Blair’s face so that she can look eye to eye with her.”Blair your crying.”said Jo as she
looks at her with compassion in her eyes.”Boy Jo you sure dont miss a thing.”said Blair as
she whipes her face with her sleave.Edna puts a hand on Blair’s shoulder to comfort her
but Blair shakes it off as she stands up.

”Im going for a drive.”said Blair as she grabs her purse.”Blair hold it.”said Jo as she
stands up.”What.”said Blair in a rude voice as she turns around.”Tell me something,Last
night when you went for a drive you went to a bar and got drunk,Then this morning you
had a hang over.You see you know im right because I know im right see I know when
someone’s been drinking.”said Jo as she crosses her arms.”Your on a roll Jo two for
two.”said Blair rude and sarcastically.”Why not make it three for three.Blair that day the
girl came to your office and said that another girl was planning on opening fire were you
drunk?”asked Jo as she looks Blair right in the eye.”So what if I was.Doesn’t change what
happened.”said Blair.”You were drunk weren’t you.”said Natalie as she looks both
shocked and worried.”Yes..Yes I was drunk.Are you happy now?”asked Blair in a rude
voice.”No Im not,Blait want some answers and I want them now.”said Edna loosing her
patience.”You are not my mother,I do not have to tell you or any of you my past or
present personal life.Now I am going for a drive if I come back drunk thats my problem
and my problem only!Tell Marcie and Morgan I went for a drive Im sure they know that
im going for a drink.”said Blair as she starts to leave.”Blair this is far from being
over!”yelled Edna as Blair slams the door in their faces as she leaves.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*Chapter18*
Lisa,Callie and Marcie walk into the kitchen around four that afternoon.Marcie opens the
refrigerator and takes out three dite cokes and hands one to Callie and the other to Lisa.
”Thanks.”said Both Callie and Lisa as they take the sodas.”Felicia,Felicia,Felicia,You put
the color on first then the clear then the design.”said Morgan as she reaches over to the
other side of the kitchen table and picks up the nailpolish remover.”Sorry,Im so glad that
your here to help me with my nails.”said Felicia as she takes the nailpolish remover from
Morgan.”I think im going to be sick.”Whispered Callie to Lisa and Marice.Lisa and Marcie
snicker.”Run!Run for your lives before the evil nailpoish remover gets into your body and
makes you loose you mind and go crazy!”yelled Marcie as her Lisa and Callie laugh.
“Like it did with those two fruit cakes at the table.”said Lisa then takes a sip of soda while
Callie and Marcie snicker.”I’d be careful if I were you,I heard that if you are around that
stuff long enough it could kill Ya.”said Callie.”Really,Hey Morgan why don’t I get you a
drinking glass for that stuff.”said Marcie.”Ha Ha Ha.”said Morgan as Marice,Callie and
Lisa leave.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“I wonder where our moms went to?”asked Callie as the three girls walk into the
livingroom.”They went out but they’ll be back later.”said Bruce.”Thanks.”said Callie as the
three walk toward the stairs but stop when they hear the front door opening.Callie,Lisa
and Marcie turn around to see RoseMarie limp into the livingroom crying as Tabitha helps
her walk.Callie runs over to RoseMarie.”Oh My God What Happened!?”asked Callie in
panic.”She triped over a rock outside.”said Tabitha.”Let me look at it,I use to help my dad
at a hospital when I was 14 to the time I was 23.”said Sam as he walks over to
RoseMarie.”No I’ll do it!”Yelled Callie.”I want daddy!”Cried RoseMarie.”I said i’d do
it.”said Sam.”Look!She’s my sister and I can do it!”Yelled Callie as she takes RoseMarie’s
hand.”I want Daddy!”cried RoseMarie.”Daddy is not here,Now where do you keep a first
aid kit?”asked Callie.”In the downstairs bathroom under the sink.”said Bruce as Callie and
RoseMarie walk by Lisa and Marice.”Thanks,Hey I’ll meet you two upstairs later.”said
Callie as her and RoseMarie leave.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Rose sit down on the Hamper.”said Callie as she looks at her sister.”No.”said RoseMarie
as she crosses her arms.”Why not?”asked Callie getting mad.”You called Me Rose,My
name is RoseMarie,Not Rose,Rosie or, Ro.”said RoseMaire.”Fine ‘RoseMarie’Sit down on
the hamper.”said Callie as RoseMarie sits down.

Callie bends down and opens the door under the sink and Pulls out a washcloth and a first
aid kit.Callie sets the stuff in the sink then stands up.”Here hold this.”said Callie rudely as
she hands the first aid kit to her sister.”Callie,Why cant Sam do it?”asked RoseMarie as
she sets the first aid kit down on her lap.”Sam just cant.”said Callie not really wanting to
talk about why.

Callie turns on the warm water,She feels it with her hand to make sure it is just right.
Then she pulls the plug so that the water can not drain out.Callie then adds two squirts of
liquid soap onto the washcloth as she starts to swish the washcloth around in the sink to
get the soap and water just right.

“Ok RoseMarie,First tell me what you hurt.”said Callie as she drains some of the water out
of the washcloth.”My knee is the worse,Then I hurt my right elbow.”said RoseMarie as
Callie walks over to her sister and sets the soapy warm washcloth on RoseMarie’s knee as
RoseMarie jumps up in pain.”Ouch! That hurt!”cried RoseMarie.”Sorry,Hold the
washcloth in place while I get some stuff out of the first aid kit.”said Callie as she takes the
first aid kit off of RoseMarie’s lap then sets it on the floor.”Cal.”said RoseMarie.”Yeah.”
said Callie as she looks for some cream in the first aid kit.”Could you please tell me why
Sam could not do it?”asked RoseMarie as she turns the washcloth over to the other side.
“You know when we were in the parkinglot that Mom and Dad were talking.”said Callie
as she sets the cream on the sink then looks for a band aid.”Yeah,When you droped the
car keys.”said RoseMarie while pulling some hair behind her ear.”Right,Anyway you
went in the car and I heard them talking and dad said that if anything happens to us that
he would blam it on mom and you maybe I would be taken away and sent to live with
Dad.Then dad said that he would move so that mom would never see you maybe me ever
again.”said Callie as she takes a pink band aid out of the first aid kit.”I love mommy,I dont
want to never see her again.”said RoseMarie as she takes the washcloth off her knee.”So
you can not let anyone see your cuts and brusies.”said Callie.”Why not?”asked
RoseMarie.”If someone saw that you have these cuts and brusies they would ask you
why you got them and You can not tell anyone what daddy did .”said Callie as she puts
the band aid on RoseMarie’s knee.”Why?”asked RoseMarie as she stands up.”Just do as I
and Mom say and you will be fine.”said Callie as she sets the washcloth in the hamper
then bends down to set the first aid kit under the sink.”Fine.”said RoseMarie.

went in the car and I heard them talking and dad said that if anything happens to us that
he would blam it on mom and you maybe I would be taken away and sent to live with
Dad.Then dad said that he would move so that mom would never see you maybe me ever
again.”said Callie as she takes a pink band aid out of the first aid kit.”I love mommy,I dont
want to never see her again.”said RoseMarie as she takes the washcloth off her knee.”So
you can not let anyone see your cuts and brusies.”said Callie.”Why not?”asked
RoseMarie.”If someone saw that you have these cuts and brusies they would ask you
why you got them and You can not tell anyone what daddy did .”said Callie as she puts
the band aid on RoseMarie’s knee.”Why?”asked RoseMarie as she stands up.”Just do as I
and Mom say and you will be fine.”said Callie as she sets the washcloth in the hamper
then bends down to set the first aid kit under the sink.”Fine.”said RoseMarie.

*Chapter19*
“When do you think that she’ll come home?”asked Dorothy as she looks over at a clock
on the wall that reads 10:00pm.”I dont know,I just hope she’s not drunk when she comes
in.”said Edna.”Well it’ll take more then hope,She’s almost always drunk.”said Marcie as
she walks into the livingroom where Edna,Natalie and Dorothy are talking.”Marcie how
old were you when Blair and your father got married?”asked Edna.”Two.”said Marcie.
“Did Blair have a drinking problem then?”asked Natalie.”I know she did drink some,I
know that dad said she had a problem but she got help got married then on my thrid
birthday Morgan was born and she had been fine for years.”said Marcie.”Do you know
why she started again?”asked Edna.”Um...Look I know what your doing.Your pumping
me for info on her and well we’er not really that close but she’s the only mother i’ve
known so if you will excuse me I have to get some chips for the poker game so that I can
beat my sister’s butt again.By the way why dont you just ask her why she started?Im sure
that she knows.”said Marcie rudely as she leaves and heads for the kitchen.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Why does everyone ask me about Blair?I mean Morgan and Blair are 100% closer then
I could ever be with Blair.I want to be close to her,I think..I miss Daddy he and I were as
close to eachother as Blair and Morgan only these last two years has been different Dad
spent more time with his job that I only saw him for may be an hour a week if I was that
lucky.I wish my life could have been better.Thought Marcie as she gets a bag of Sour
Cream and onion chips down from a shelf in the kitchen then sets the bag on the countor
and takes a picture out of her pocket.”I know why she broke the picture.I guess I’ll keep it
if she does not want it.I miss you Daddy.”Said Marcie as she puts the picture in her pocket
then grabs the bag of chips then walks upstairs.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Lets..See..I bet...a buck.”said Felicia as she lays a dollar on the desk.”I see your buck
and raise you five.”said Lisa as she throws five dollars on the table.”I fold.”said Felicia as
she throws her cards down.”So do I.”said Morgan as she sets her cards down.”I dont,I’ll
see your one and five and raise you two dollars.”said Callie as she sets the money on the
table.”Here’s your two dollars,I call what’ya got?”asked Lisa.”Four Ace’s.”said Callie as
she sets the cards on the table so eveyone could see what she had.”Four King’s,You win
again.”said Lisa as Callie takes the money.

“Food is here.”said Marcie as she waves a bag of Sour cream and onion Chips.”Yes im
starving.”said Lisa as Marcie walks over and sits down in a chair by the desk.”Who won
the last game?”asked Marcie as she opens the bag and hands it to Lisa.”I did.”said Callie
with a huge grin on her face.”Why am I not surprised.”said Marcie as she takes the cards
and starts to mix them.”Im going to put my Pajamas on.”said Callie, As she stands up she
reveals two large bruises one on the right leg and the other on her left leg.”Cal My God
What happened?”asked Marcie in shock.”What?”asked Callie allready knowing what
they were asking but hopping it was something else.”Your legs.”said Marcie looking
concerned.”Oh that..Uh..I fell off my bike.”said Callie as she turns around to reveal a
nasty cut on the back of her neck.”Callie,Your neck!Your not fine!”yelled Lisa as she walks
over to Callie.”Look this is my life!Stay out of it! Im clumsy thats all!”Yelled Callie as she
leaves.Lisa and Marice look at eachother both knowing that there is more to problem then
Callie being ‘clumsy’.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Callie read me a story.”said RoseMarie when Callie walks into their room.”Not to night
im going to get my Pajamas on ok.”said Callie as she takes out a baggy pair of pants and
a baggy T-shirt and some underware and starts to leave the room.”Cal whats wrong?”
asked Jo as she walks over to her daughter.Callie looks at her mom with tears in her eyes.
“They know..They saw what happened...I know they know.”said Callie as tears run down
her face.”Did they say anything?”asked Jo.”Yes they wantted to know what happend I
told them I was clumsy but..”said Callie as Jo cuts her off.”Callie hunny listen,Now I think
you will be fine,If they say anymore about it dont tell them anything.Kay.”said Jo as she
looks at her daughter’s tear stained face.”Kay.”said Callie as she whipes her eyes with her
sleave then leaves the room.

Thanks for all of the replys here is the next
chapter!;o)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*Chapter20*
Where am I?I’ve been driving around for hours,I must be somewhere.These roads are
nothing like the ones in College Station.I dont even remember these roads.Thought Blair
to herself as she drives by a bar.I think I might go in find a map,Fix my make-up..Have a....
drink.thought Blair as she pulls into the parkinglot of the bar then stops the car and gets
out and walks into the bar.

Blair walks over to the countor then sits down on a bar stool as a guy about 35 walks
over to her.”Your new.”said the guy.”Dont miss a thing do’ya.”said Blair as she takes out
her credit card.”Well I know every person that comes in here,I like it when a new face
comes in,I like it even better when its a woman with looks that could kill.”said the guy.
“Your not too bad yourself..But..I got to teen aged daughters and a husban that just killed
himself so im not looking right now.But I’ll have the strongest drink you got make it a
double,and I need a map.”said Blair as she slaps her credit card down on the table.”Two
teenaged girls huh.”said the guy as he walks over with Blair’s drink.”Yeah,Marcie my
oldest is 15 shes my stepdaughter ,she hates me,Then my daughter Morgan she’s 13 her
and I are close.Marcie hates me even more sence her father kill himself two weeks
ago..Yeah my life is perfect.”said Blair as she takes the last sip of her drink.”Well I have
a 9 year old daughter myself,Yeah my wife died two years ago,She died of a brain
tumor.”said the guy.”Im sorry. l’ll take another one.”said Blair.”Here you go.”said The
guy as he sets the drink down.

Two hours later Blair takes the last sip of her fifth drink when the guy walks over to her.
“Im sorry but we’er closing.”said the guy.”Ho..come....long...One more dri...nk.”said Blair
slurring her words as she talks.”Do you have a number I could call for someone to come
and get you?”asked the guy.”Im stay...ing ..ith some fri..ends if you ev..en want to call
hem..friends.”said Blair Slurring her words.”I need a number.”said The guy.”Yeah..Uh
Bruces and Edna Gaines.Look it up in the phone book.”said Blair as she puts a hand
through her hair.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Thats it im going to bed.”said Marcie as she stands up.”Oh come on,Its only 1am.”said
Lisa as she takes a drink of coke.”Yeah but I might as well go I mean Callie went around
ten,Felicia around eleven and Morgan around midnight I think I better get going.”said
Marcie.”Ok I’ll clean up.”said Lisa as Marcie leaves the room and heads for the stairs
where she can hear Natalie,Jo,Dorothy and Edna talking.”This could be kinda fun.”said
Marcie quietly to her self as she stands by the stairs and listens in.

“I wonder whats up with Blair?”asked Jo as she pulls some hair behind her ear.”I dont
know,Marcie is not talking and Morgan well I heard that she’s closer to Blair then Marcie
is but I know Marcie has more of the info we need.”said Natalie.”Yeah I know.Blair isn’t
the only one who’s been acting strange,Bruce said that When RoseMarie fell today that
Sam said he would take care of her but Callie yelled and said that she could do it she got
protective almost.”said Edna.”Callie and RoseMarie are close thats all.”said Jo stoping
the subject before it went any farther.

I guess I’ll go downstairs now nothing good is happening.Thought Marcie to herself.As
she walks down the stairs the phone rings.Marice stops at the bottom step as Jo answers
the phone.

“Hello,Yes this is the Gaines,She’s Where!Yes Yes we’ll be there right away.”Said Jo as
she hangs up the phone.

“What Happened is it Blair?Is she ok?”asked Marcie in panic.”Yes clam down,She’s at a
bar on 354,She had too much to drink and needs a ride home.”said Jo.”Nothing new
there,im going to bed.”said Marcie as she starts to leave.”Hold it Marcie.”said Jo as
Marcie turns around.”What?”asked Marcie in a rude voice.”First your in a panic,Then
your like nothing happened.”said Jo.”You’ll get use to it after a while.I know I have.”said
Marcie.Natalie walks over to Marcie and looks her in the eyes.”You and Morgan know
something we dont am I right.Said Natalie.”Yep,Morgan and I both know that Y’all are a
bunch of nosey ladys that have nothing better to do then to pry into an off limits zone
which by the way just happens to be our lives!”Yelled Marice as she turns around and
starts to leave.”What does your father think of all of this?”asked Dorothy.As Dorothy said
that Marcie felt like someone punched her in the stomach,tears form in her eyes,She trys to
hold them back as she turns around.”My Father.”said Marcie alittle bit above a whisper.
“Yeah what does he think?”asked Jo. “What does he think!What does he think!”Yelled
Marcie as she storms out of the room leaving eveyone looking at eachother.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
About an hour later Jo walks into the bar and sees Blair sitting on a bar stool half drunk.
Jo walks over to Blair and puts a hand on her back.”Blair.”said Jo as Blair turns around to
look at Jo.”Jo..What yar...ou..do..here?”asked Blair while slurring her words.”Im here to
take you home,Come on.”said Jo as she helps Blair up.”What ...bout.. the car?”asked
Blair while slurring her words.”Natalie will drive it home can I have the keys?”asked Jo.
“No,The..ir..My ees.”said Blair slurring her words.”No they belong to the Car Place
where you rented the car from.Now give me the keys!”yelled Jo getting angry.”Ho..Law..
birte.”said Blair slurring her words as she hands Jo the car keys.

“You WHAT!”Yelled Rick at Jo.”I..I..Lost the baby.”said Jo as she starts to cry.”I cant

the stairs.”Sorry isn’t good enough.”said Rick as sweat rolls down his face.”Its part your
FAULT!”Yelled Jo.”Dont raise your voice at me!”yelled Rick.”Im 37 years old dont tell me
what to do!”yelled Jo.”Fine I wont.”said Rick as he raises his hand.Callie runs down the
stairs.”Dad NO!!!Please NO!”Yelled Callie.”Rick!”scream Jo.”NO!NO!NO!”Cried Callie
as she quickly sits up in her bed with cold sweat pooring off her body.Callie gasps quickly
for air.Where am I tought Callie then quickly remembers that she’s at the Gaines’ house.
“Cal,you ok?”asked RoseMarie as the seven year old rubs her eyes with her hands to
wake up.”Yeah im fine,You go back to sleep.”said Callie as she stands up.”Kay,Where
you going?”asked RoseMarie sleepily.”To get a drink of water.”said Callie as she leaves.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“We are here today to lay to rest Jay Gentry,He was good man,He was a huban,A father,
and the mayor of this town.”said a pastor.You can here the sound of people crying as
they hear the sound of the casket being lowered into the ground.

“Mom!Morgan!”Screamed Marcie as she stares at her father’s bloodly body laying
helplessly on the cold basment floor.”Marice what is it?”asked Blair as she looks at her
daughter’s pale white frightened face.Marcie points to her fathers bloodly body.

”He’s Dead.”said Blair.”No!Daddy!”Cried Marice.”He’s Dead.”said Blair.”No!N..”said
Marice as the loud sound of a gun gos off.”NO!”Scream Marcie as she sits up in her bed
cold and with sweat dripping down her forehead.”Marice Hush up im trying to
sleep.”snaped Mogan as she turns over in her bed.”Morgan where am I?”asked
Marice.Morgan rolls over and looks at her sister.”You have got to be kidding,We are at
the Gaines’house.”said Morgan.”Oh.Thanks.”said Marcie as she stands up.”Now can I
get my bueaty sleep.”said Morgan.”Yes.”said Marcie.”Thank-you.”said Morgan as she
turns over in her bed.”No problem.”said Marcie as she leaves the room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Marcie,Callie,and Lisa walk into the kitchen almost bumpping into eachother on the way
in.”Im sorry.”said Callie as she walks over to the sink.”No No my fault.”said Lisa as she
walks over to the kitchen table then sits down.”No its mine.”said Marcie as she walks over
to the refrigerator.”What are you guys doing up?”asked Lisa.”I couldn’t sleep.”said
Marcie as she walks over to the kitchen table with a can of dite coke.”Same here.What
about you Lisa?”asked Callie as she walks over to kitchen table with a glass of water.
“I couldn’t sleep either.”said Lisa as Marcie and Callie sit down at the table.”Yeah I’d be
fine if I had my laptop but its in the shop.”said Marcie.”Cool you have a laptop!”said
Callie with huge smile on her face.”Yep I want to be a writter.”said Marcie as she takes a
sip of soda.”Well im going to singer.”said Lisa with determination.”Cool,I think I want to
be either a lawyer like my mom or may be an Inspector ,Something to do with the law
though.”said Callie as the smile quickly fades from her face.Lisa and Marcie look at
eachother then over at Callie.”Um...Callie.”said Lisa uncomfortably.”Huh?”asked Callie
as she looks at Lisa.”Look..Im sorry about before.”said Lisa.”I am too.”said Marcie.”Yeah
we should never have forced you to tell us what happened.”said Lisa.”Thats ok,Im kinda

Callie.”Neither will I.”said Lisa.”Ok...A few weeks ago my father...killed himself..And the
worse part is that I found him.”said Marcie then regrets what she just said.Callie looks
shocked as she glances over at Marcie whom is now in tears.Callie did not want to tell
anyone what her father did but she felt that this was a better time then any.”Marice its
ok,In away I wish I were you right now.”said Callie.With tears running down her face
Marice looks up at Callie.”Why?”asked Marcie just alittle above a whisper then whipes
her face with her sleave.”Your life is so much more...peacfull then mine has

voice cracking as a tear rolls down her face.”Im sorry about both of you.”said Lisa
compassionately as she looks over at Callie whom just cant stop crying.
“Its..Ok”said Callie in between tears.Lisa walks over to Callie and Places a hand on
Callie’s right shoulder.”Thanks I’ll be fine”said Callie.”It felt good to tell someone.”said
Marcie.”I know what you mean.”said Callie.”Hey lets make a pack to tell eachother

then Marcie places her hand on top of Callie’s.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
*Chapter22*
Jo wakes up around nine that morning,She looks over at Blair laying in the bed that she
had put her in late last night when she was drunk.Jo stands up and walks over to Blair and
shakes her alittle.”Blair,Wake up.”said Jo as Blair starts to move.”What?”asked Blair
trying to wake up.”Time to get up.”said Jo as she walks away.”What time is it?”asked
Blair.”Nine.”said Jo as she leaves the room.Nine God it feels more like three am.Thought
Blair as she sits up in her bed.”Ooh.”said Blair as she places a hand on her pounding
head.Why am I in this room and not in the room with Marcie and Morgan?Thought Blair
as she stands up as walks over to the door.”God im dead.”said Blair as what happened
last night comes into her mind.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Edna Gaines walks into the kitchen around nine to see a note on the countor from Bruce.
She picks it up and looks at it.
Dear Edna,
Jeff ,Sam and I took the kids out so we could give you ladies time to talk.Its about 8:15
now we should be back around two.
-Bruce
Edna folds the note up and puts it in her pocket then walks over to the sink.Ugh I feel sick,
The doctor said I cant handel stress,Then he said I needed treatment..well I can’t avoid
either anymore.I dont want the treatment when I have nothing to live for.Thought Edna as
Blair,Jo,Natalie,and Dorothy walk into the kitchen.”Moring girls.”said Edna.”Morning.”
said Dorothy.”Do you have any idea where my girls are?”asked Blair coldly.”Yeah Bruce
and the other guys took them out they should be back around two.”said Edna.”Good
because when they come back we’er leaving.”said Blair as she leaves the kitchen and
walks into the livingroom.Jo,Edna,Dorothy,and Natalie follow right behind her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Leaving,Blair we gotta talk.”said Edna as she and Blair sit down on the sofa.”Look I came
here not to chit chat make up and put on a happy face and pertend that everything is
peachy keen,My life is far from that.”said Blair as Jo sits at the end of the sofa next to
Blair whom is next to Edna.”Well your not the only one who’s life is messed up,You know
that U-Hual we brought with us...Well..Its full of half our house,Im thinking of not going
home after we leave here.”said Jo.”What why?”asked Edna.Jo looks over at Edna with
tears in her eyes.
”I cant go home I...I just cant.”said Jo with tears rolling down her face.”Jo what
is it?Why cant you go home?”asked Edna with a worried look on her face.”Rick.”said Jo
softly.”What about Rick?”asked Natalie getting concerned.”You mean that none of you
noticed anything strange about Callie,RoseMaire or me.”said Jo.”Felicia said that Callie....
Jo my God...Rick he hits you.”said Dorothy as she looks like shes about to cry.”Jo I want
the truth is this true?”asked Edna looking Jo straight in her eyes only to see tears of pain,
regret,mistakes,fear,and worry rolling down her face.”Yes..Its..True.”cried Jo.Edna
reaches her hand over and behind Blair and sets it on Jo’s shoulder.”Oh Jo.”said Edna
compassionately.”Its ok really,They girls and I have managed so far.”said Jo as she
whipes her eyes with the back of her hand.”Jo listen,You have not managed so far,You
are a wreck.”said Natalie.”Rick the girls and I went to court a few hours before we left to
come here to see who get RoseMarie,Since Callie is 14 she got to choose but RoseMaire
does not and its killing me,I still dont know who won,I gave this number to my lawyer so
he can reach me....But im so..Scared that he will win and RoseMarie will be his.”said Jo
with tears in her eyes.”Jo I dont see how Rick could win.”said Dorothy.”I know,We have
bumps,brusies,cuts,scars,and we have even had stiches.Rick told me in the parking lot of
the court house that if he saw even one hair out of place on RoseMarie’s head that he
would blam it on me and use it to win his daughter and thats why the other day Callie
acted the way she did because she over heard us talking...Well..Yelling.”said Jo.”Where
would you move to?”asked Natalie.”Well Somewhere,and I have my mom bring the rest
of our stuff Im afraid to go back if I win or even loose Im afraid of what Rick might do to
me and my girls.”said Jo.”Blair you’ve been quite what do you think about this?”asked
Dorothy.”For the last 13/14 years I have thought of wantting to be Jo.”said Blair as she
stares at the wall in front of her not wanting to look anyone in the eye.Jo turns her head
toward Blair and looks at her shocked.”What?My life is worthless,My life is a mess,If I
did not have my girls I would have...”said Jo as Blair cuts her off.”Your life is not worthless
your life is together,You have two kids that love you to death,A good job what more could
you want.”said Blair.”A husban that loves me and my kids.”said Jo.”Dont we all want
that,Sometimes your lucky and sometimes your not and well..Jo you and I were not.”said
Blair coldly.”What your life hard,Blair with a hard life..I cant even picture it.You know
your whole life you wanted something you got handed to you on a silver platter!Well I
would have loved to have that kind of life!I bet you still are getting everything you want!”
Yelled Jo.”Well thats where you are wrong,See back in 1988 I got cut off,I still was able
to keep some stocks,Money,Bonds,Part of my Daddy’s company which I sold a few years
later to open my store.These last 13/14 years have been far from “Peachy Keen!” They
have been miserable!”Yelled Blair then stands up.”Blair.”said Edna as she stands up and
walks over to Blair.”What?”asked Blair coldly.”For almost 13 years I have wanted to
know the truth...”said Edna as Blair rudly cuts her off.”Well your not hearing it from me,
Ask Someone who Cares!”Yelled Blair then stroms out of the room toward her room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Blair storms into her bedroom,slams the door and throws herself face down onto her bed
and cries uncontrollably into a pillow.Jo swings open the door and walks into Blair’s room
with Edna,Natalie,and Dorothy close behind her.”Blair please all Edna and the rest of us
want is the truth.”said Jo not noticing Blair crying till she sees Edna walking over to Blair
and Placing a hand of comfort on her back as she sits down on the bed next to Blair.”Blair
what is it?Whats wrong?”asked Edna with compassion.Blair doesn’t really know what shes
doing she feels like shes in a daze like this is just a dream and that maybe she might wake
up.Blair lifts up her head and looks up at Edna with tears running down her face.”We all
want the truth but never get it.”said Blair.Blair thinks back to the night when she found her
husban dead on the cold basment floor.Blair starts to shake as Edna hugs her.”Sh Sh its
ok.”said Edna as she lets Blair cry in her arms.

*Chapter 23*
It has been about thirty minutes now and Blair has just stoped crying.Blair sits up alittle
then whipes her face with the back of her hand.”Blair why dont you go wash your face,It
might make you feel better.”said Edna looking at Blair.”Whats the point,Im sure you want
to know the “Truth”as you put it,I’ll just end up crying again.”said Blair then stands up and
walks over to her dresser.”Your right we do want the truth.”said Jo.Blair picks up a box
kleenex then walks back over to her bed and sits down.”You really want the truth.”said
Blair hopping that maybe just maybe they whould say no.No such luck.”Yes we want the
truth,Blair the truth wont change how I feel about you,You......All of you girls are like
daughters to me and nothing you do or say will change that.”said Edna.Blair takes a few
Kleenex and holds them in her left hand then sets the box next to her on the bed.”I wish I
could belive you but I cant,I lied to you,I deceived you,I paid for it then and now,Im still
paying for it,More then I did then.”said Blair.”The truth cant be that bad.”said Dorothy.
“I wouldn’t bet on that.Jo a while ago I told you that I wish that I was you..Well..I ment it,
back in 1988 I started to have money problems,My family cut me off I had a few stocks
and bonds and some money from the job I had at Eastland but that wasn’t enough so I
had to get a night job to pay the bills,I was doing fine going to Eastland in the morning
then saying I had a date every night around 8pm got me out of the house long enough for
the 8:30pm-2:30am night job at the hotel without anyone thinking anything else.I had
been doing that for about a month and I was fine till one night I couldn’t take it anymore
and I went to the hotel bar and started to drink,It felt good to drink my troubles away and
ease my stress...that I just kept drinking,The bills slowly started to stop pilling up,Now I had
two well paying jobs and I only needed 500 dollars then all of my bills would be paid so
one night after my hotel shift ended I was drunk and not thinking straight so I started to
drive and I drove to Eastland and I took 2,000 dollars.”said Blair keeping her head down,
she felt to ashamed to look anyone in the eye.”Blair if you were tight for money why
didn’t you just ask me I would have loaned you the money.”said Edna.”It wasn’t that
simple I had money all my life and now not to have money no one would have belived it.
The next morning I found out that I took 2,000 dollars instead of 500 so I thought of
putting the rest back but I kept it and spent it on buying a condo so I could get away and
have my own space,Drink more then when I was at the hotel,Be poor and misable in
peace,Well that morning I went into hotel to pick up my pay check on my way to
Eastland,While at the hotel I had a few too many drinks and well that just happened to be
the day that the girl said that another girl was planning on kill other students,of course I
said little about it and tried to brush it off and I went of my marry way till the day the
shooting happened.The day it happened I had a slight hangover so I felt semi well,Then
Jo came over and put handcuffs on me and I went to prison.”said Blair as her eyes start to
fill up with tears.”Oh Blair.”said Natalie compassionately.”Well while I was in jail I kept
thinking about Jo and how her life is great,Just had gotten married,Moved to a house or
whatever you want to call it,Had a husban that loved her,Her bills weren’t over due,She
had the life that I wanted,Her life was together and in a way still is.All.....My life I..I longed
to be Jo...Have someone who cared and loved me,And I never have found that.”said Blair
with tears running down her face.”Blair hold it,I thought you got married.”said Jo.”Im
getting there.After I was found not guilty I came home knowing things whould never be the
same,I kept to myself,Spent more time at the hotel getting drunk,I lost my Eastland job and
my cnodo in the same day so that night I must have had atleast one and a half bottles of
wine,I felt like I had lost everyones trust in me eventhough they belived and hung on every
word I said.Days later war broke out between us and I just knew I had to leave as so did
you girls so I packed all of my stuff up I made about ten trips to my car carrying about six
bags each time,When I was done I left and headed for Texas.”said Blair still keeping her
head down.”Blair if only we had known.”said Edna.”Save that part for after I tell you why
my husban is not here,I think you’ll get a real big kick out of that one.”said Blair
sarcastically.”Fine.”said Jo.

”When I left I knew I wanted to go to Texas but where in Texas I did not know so I just
kept driving till I came to College Station and I stayed there,I opened a small store.I felt
like I was going under I had so many problems that even if I wanted someone to love me I
felt like no one would even give me the time of day.....Till I ment Jay Gentry.Jay was
everything and more,Back then he was tall,wore a cowboy hat,Boots,Denim pants and
coat,He was a true Texan,We dated for a while then he told me about his 2 year old
daughter Marcie,I told him that it didn’t matter that he had a daughter I’d love him and his
daughter,so we got married and he got me help with my drinking and having Morgan
helped to get my drinking under control.Life was going great for a while,I had two
beautiful girls,A husban that loved me,A job that was going great and Jay was now
Mayor of College Staition,Yeah life was great so I thought.

Jay would spend more time at work,Marcie never really liked me,To her I was the lady
that stole her daddy away from her,Now she started to show it alittle more then she use to
sence Jay was never home,Morgan well her and I are close she likes her father she had a
slight grudge against him but not too bad,And I...well....I missed him here I was 34 and all
by myself rasing a 13 year old and an11 year old that fought and still fights to this day
worse then Jo and I did,I couldn’t take it.

Two years go by and things get worse,Jay is gone almost all of the time,Marcie hates her
father to the point where she leaves the room everytime he walks in,She did start to like
me alittle better though,Morgan also started to hate her father,And I was ready to file
divorce papers take the kids and move,But..I didn’t...I felt that we could solve our
problems another way.....We couldn’t,A week before the girls and I came here we woke
up late one night to the sound of a gun going off.”said Blair with tears pooring down her
face.She takes a minute to wipe the tears away then continues.
”We searched the house I was looking downstairs when I heard Marcie scream up the
basment stairs,She had found her father dead on the basment floor.My husban had killed
himself and once again he left me with two girls that hate eachother and me all by myself
to raise them.”said Blair then breaks down into tears.Jo looks at Blair,She wants to say
something but she cant think of anything.
“Blair,Im sorry,I know just how you feel.”said Dorothy.”No you dont your husban is still
alive.”cried Blair.”Before we came here my 4 year old son Carter died,He need a new
heart but he never got one and he died.”said Dorothy.Edna Natalie and Jo looked
shocked at what they had just had heard.Blair’s whole life from 1988-now and Dorothy’s
son,Everyone was also shocked hearing Jo’s life.The girls lives had changed and none for
the best.
”Oh girls,If only someone would have said something I might have been able to help you
somehow,In someway.”said Edna.”I...I couldn’t...tell....anyone.”said Blair choking on her
tears.”Blair you could have told me,I could have helped you,And Jo why didn’t you just
pick up the phone and call me,You and your girls could have stayed here.”said Edna.”You
dont know how many times I almost picked up the phone and called you even if it was for
some advice,Lord knows I sure could have used some,I still could have.”said Jo.”I..”said
Edna getting cut off.”Edna!!!Were back!!!”yelled Bruce from another room.”Comming!
We’ll talk later.”said Edna as her and the girls leave room to meet their husbans and kids.

*Chapter 24*

June 12th,2001

As the weeks go by everyone is starting to get to know eachother again,The past is not
keeping us apart like it has been doing.No one will forget what has happened,I know I
wont.As I told everyone about my life past to present I felt like a weight had been lifted.
I had been so afraid as to what they might have said years ago if I had told them I had
too get a second job to pay the bills and for that condo that I got myself into more ‘hot
water’ as some people may put it.My worse mistake was drinking that alone has ruined
more then half of my life.I know I should get help but....I cant...Im not ready yet but I know
that if I keep on like this Marcie will pack my bags and drag me to the Betty Ford clinic.

Marcie has almost had it with me to the point where im thinking she keeps a mental
calendar to count down the days till shes 18 and can leave,I dont blame her one bit,If I
were her i’d want to run far away from me as fast as I can.At least she just turned 15 the
same day Morgan turned 13,which was one week before Jay killed himself so she wont
be able to dive for a year.Thank-God.

Edna is getting worse,She has spent the past three days in bed,I spent part of late last
night in her room just talking to her when Bruce and everyone else went out for ice cream
and to the movies,I must say that the house was much more peaceful with it just being
Edna and I.

She asked me alittle more about my life and how I felt about what Jay did and how I feel
about him being gone.I told her that I missed the way he looked when he went to ride
horses every Saturday when he didn’t have to work,which has been maybe once a month.
Jay and Marcie went riding alot together when he had the time and when he didn’t I’d
drop Marcie off and Morgan and I would go shopping.I also told her that I dont miss the
late hours of him being at work,All the trips he use to take for work and the girls and I
were stuck at home.Yeah I dont miss that one bit.

Then I told her that I felt scared,Im raising two teenaged girls!ALL BY MYSELF!Morgan’s
easy to raise she’s like a mini me.Marcie is another thing,Almost like Jo,Thats a scary
thought.

She’s into country music,Black leather,Anything Black or wild,And it doesn’t help that she
keeps to herself all of the time too.I also told her how I felt when I saw Jay lying on the
basement floor covered in blood,How my heart just broke into little peices and just
Shattered to the ground like a mirror braking.My life,Past and present,All of my dreams
and Hopes for the future,And all of my Memories had just shattered with my braking
heart.I told her I want my husban back.

I want the chance to change the past and to fix our marriage.But that will not happen,not now its to late its to late to fix or change anything,Nothing will ever be the same again.
-Blair Gentry
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Ok thats all for now.I'll add the next chapter either friday of Saturday.This story is close to being done.If your not sure if its done at one point just look for the words
"The End" close to the end of that post.
Please reply and let me know if you like it so far.Please;o)

Here's the rest of the story.I hope you like it.BTW I changed the name of this story to
"Something To Live For"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* *Chapter25*


RoseMarie and Tabitha walk into the the livingroom just as the phone rings.”Phone!”yelled
Tabitha up the stairs where her mother and Edna were.”You get it sweety!”yelled Natalie
from upstairs.RoseMarie picks up the phone.”Hello?”asked RoseMarie.”RoseMarie its
Daddy.”said Rick from the other line.RoseMarie’s grow wide with excitement.”Daddy!”
said RoseMarie with excitement.”Is Mommy or Callie there hun?”asked Rick kindly.
“Mommy is..I think.”said RoseMarie.”Who is it girls?”asked Natalie as she walks down
the stairs.”Its RoseMarie’s daddy.”said Tabitha.”Jo!Phone”Yelled Natalie.Jo walks into the
livingroom.”Who is it?”asked Jo.”Daddy,Here.”said RoseMarie as the seven year old
hands her mother the phone.”Um..Girls how about we go upstairs and play Candyland.”
said Natalie.”Cool!”said both girls with excitement.”You go set it up and I’ll be up in a
minute.”said Natalie.”Ok Aunt Natalie.”said RoseMaire as the two girls run up the stairs.
“Thanks Natalie.”said Jo.”No Problem.”said Natalie as she walks up the stairs.

Jo put the phone to her ear,She takes a deep breath.”Rick.”said Jo.”Jo sweety.”said Rick
kindly.”What do you want and who told you where I was?”asked Jo rudely.”I have my
ways...Anyway the judge came to a decision.”said Rick.”Shouldn’t my lawyer be telling
this to me instead of my Ex Husband.”said Jo coldly.”You get the girls..But I get to see
them at least five days out of each month without supervision.Oh Jo im sorry thats the
other line I gotta go,Bye.”said Rick then hangs up.”That Jerk!”Yelled Jo as she hangs up
the phone.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Two red.”said Tabitha as she moves her game peice.”My turn.”said RoseMarie as she
picks up a card.”Natalie!”called Jo as she runs into an upstairs bedroom.Natalie stands
up and walks over to Jo.”Yes.”said Natalie.”Im going out for awhile,When Callie and the
others come back tell them I went for a walk.”said Jo in a rush.”Jo you ok?”asked Natalie.
“Im fine,RoseMarie be good for Aunt Natalie and Edna.”said Jo.”I’ll try.”said RoseMarie.
“Jo you sure?”asked Natalie.”Yeah,Watch RoseMarie and Callie.”said Jo as she rushes
out of the room.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jo reaches into her purse and takes out a dime,She picks up the phone then puts the dime
in the pay phone.Jo pushes some buttons then puts the phone to her ear.”Hello.”said a
voice from the other line.”Yes Blake Holman please.”said Jo.”Hold on.”said the voice.
“Yes this is Blake Holman.”said Blake.”This is Jo Bonnor.”said Jo.”I guess your calling
about the court date.”said Blake.”How in God’s name could that Judge grant my Ex
Husband who hurt my kids and I five unsupervised visits a month!”yelled Jo.”Jo now Calm
down.”said Blake.”Ca..Calm Down!You tell me to Calm down after my Ex Husban calls
me to tell me this!”yelled Jo.”How did he get your number?”asked Blake.”He said he had
his ways,Now what am I going to do?”asked Jo.”You could repeal the court,or you could
just settle for this.”said Blake.”Im thinking of putting my house up for sale.”said Jo.”Where
are you moving to?”asked Blake.”I might move west or stay here.”said Jo.”Wherever you
end up you must tell me or else you will be charged with kidnapping.”said Blake.”Im well
awhere of that fact,I will be back in a few weeks then I will make my mind up then.”said
Jo.”Mrs.Bonnor I have to go to a metting,Call me to let me know what your going to do.”
said Blake.”I will.”said Jo as she hangs up the phone.


Jo puts another dime in the phone,She presses some buttons then puts the phone to her
ear.“Mary ford this is Jo Bonnor.”said Jo from a phone booth.”Jo how are you?”asked
Mary.”I need you to put my house up for sale.”said Jo.”When are you planning to
move?”asked Mary.”As soon as I can.”said Jo.”Why?I’ve known you for a almost 14
years your like a sister to me.”said Mary.”Mary please,Just put it up,I’ll be back in a few
weeks to get packed up and hire a moving crew.”said Jo.”But Jo..”said Mary getting cut
off by Jo.”Just do it,When I come home I want to see a for sale sign or a sold
sign in my front yard.”said Jo.”Alright.”said Mary.”Thank-You,See you in a few weeks.”
said Jo as she hangs up the payphone then walks out of the phone booth
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Now that was funny.”Laughed Callie as she,Lisa,Marcie,Felicia,Morgan,Jeff, Sam,
Dorothy,and Blair walk into the front door of the house.”I..I know.”Laughed Lisa.”I cant
belive Morgan and Marice fell into...”said Callie laughing so hard that she couldn’t
talk.”Thats right just keep on laughing,I fall into the fountain at the mall and you people
laugh.”said Morgan moving her hands as she talks.”I still dont know why you had the guts
to pull me into the fountain with you when I was kind enough to help you up.”said Marcie.
“Revenge.”said Morgan.”For what!”Yelled Marcie.”It was you soda that I sliped on!”
Yelled Morgan.”Yeah you knocked it over!”Yelled Marcie.”I did not.”yelled Morgan.
“Now its time for my revenge!”Yelled Marcie as she hands her purse to Callie.Marcie
makes her hand into a fist and leans it back and aims at Morgan,Blair quickly grabs
Marice’s arm.”There will be no blood shead on this trip.”said Blair.”Just let me deck her
and I’ll be fine.”said Marcie.”You will not deck your sister,Now Morgan go upstairs and
take a shower,Marcie go take a shower downstairs.”said Blair.Morgan and Marice stand
there giving eachother evil looks.”NOW!”Yelled Blair.Marcie and Morgan run to the
bathrooms.

RoseMarie runs down the stairs.”Mommy.”said RoseMarie.”No just us.”said Dorothy.
“Oh.”said RoseMarie disappointed.”I thought she was here?”questioned Blair.”She went
for a walk at one.”said RoseMarie.”Its four now I hope shes allright.”said Dorothy.”Cal
my poney tail’s falling down can you fix it please?”asked RoseMarie.”Sure lets go into the
bedroom.”said Callie as she and RoseMarie leave the room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Can I have two pigtails this time?”asked RoseMarie as the two girls walk into the
bedroom.”I guess.”said Callie as she walks over to one of the suitcases.”Daddy called
when you were gone.”said RoseMarie.”Did you tell mom?”asked Callie takes out a mini
bag of hair stuff.”Her and I talked to him,Then after mommy talked to him she left.”said
RoseMaire.Callie takes out a hair brush and starts to brush her sister’s hair.”She left at
one and she is still not back yet?”questioned Callie as she parts RoseMarie’s hair.”Yep.”
said RoseMarie.”I wonder why she is taking so long?I mean it does take someone four
hours to take a walk does it?”questioned Callie as she works on the last poneytail.
“I don’t know.”said RoseMaire.”All done.”said Callie as she pulls the hair out of the
hairbrush.”Thanks Cal.”said RoseMarie as she leaves the room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jo walks into the house around 6:00pm that evening.She walks into the kitchen to see
Blair,Dorothy,Natalie,and Edna sitting around the kitchen table talking.”Jo your back.”
said Dorothy.”I just went for a walk.”said Jo then sits down at the table.”A five hour
walk!”Exclaimed Edna.”While some of you were gone Rick called....He gets to see the
girls five days a month without supervision.”said Jo.”How could the judge do that after all
you and the girls told him.”said Natalie.”He’s a guy thats why.”said Jo.”What are you
going to do?”asked Edna.”Well I called my Lawyer and he said I could repeal the court if
I wanted to.”said Jo.”Are you?”asked Blair.”Im thinking about it.”said Jo.”Edna!”Yelled
Bruce from the livingroom.”Kitchen!”Yelled Edna.
