Over the next 5 years MJ stayed in touch with Dannie. One day MJ was down in Queensland visiting Dannie and her family. They were chatting away catching up on gossip. As they were talking, 2 people showed up. They knew who they were.
MJ said "What are you both doing here?" Kim (Annabelle and Dannie's Mum) said "We came here to talk." Dannie said "So you could tear the family apart again?" Matt (Annabelle and Dannie's dad) said "No that's not what we want to do." Dannie said "Sure you have a funny way of showing it." Matt said "It's the truth."
MJ said "I'm not the one to speak here but I'll just say, why do you want to talk now?" Kim said "We want to make things right." Dannie said "It's a bit late for that don't you think?"
Kim said "No it's not, what if I leave this earth? what if Dad leaves this earth? are you going to carry that anger forever? are you going to shut us out before it's too late?" Annabelle said "Maybe, as you put all of us through this so why fix it when it's broken?"
Kim said "Which is why I want Sammie and the rest of the family back in our lives. Dad or I can't live without you all." Dannie said "So you expect us to say oh hey it's alright let's forget it. No! how can I forget about it.?" Matt said "We understand that."
Dannie said "So why do what you did? Do you think it was fair on Sammie to not have her real mother in her life? Do you think it was fair on Annabelle or Adrian?" Kim said "No it wasn't fair at all." Dannie said "Why did you do it then?"
Kim said "Because I was afraid." Dannie said "Afraid of what?" Kim said "Of you making that same mistake I did." Dannie said "What same mistake? What did you do?" Kim said "You and Annabelle have a brother. I was 14 when I was forced to give him up for adoption, my mother said I was too young." Dannie said "I have a brother? Whats his name?"
Kim said "His name is Luke, he's 4 years older than Annabelle." Annabelle said "So where is he now?" Kim said "We reunited with him 2 years ago, he is living in Victoria with his own family, we both realized how important family is."
Dannie said "Ok but that is still no excuse what you did to me or Annabelle. Why give Sammie to Annabelle. you could have done it different, help me instead of kicking me out." Matt said "That was wrong of us to do that we realized that now."
Annabelle said "So what do you want us to do then?" Kim said "Maybe forgive and forget." Dannie said "I don't know if I can do that." Kim said "Please, Matt and I miss Sammie, we miss you and Annabelle." Dannie looked at MJ.
MJ said "I can't say forgive them or force them to forgive. But I do understand family is important, but whats also important is love. I don't want want you all to carry this anger you have for each other to your grave. But it's really up to you. I'm here no matter what happens."
Annabelle said "MJ is right we can't stay angry forever. But it does take time to get over this." Kim said "But it also takes time to get over the lose of someone in your life. Please girls don't shut us out forever."
Dannie said "If you want us back in your life then you must understand we are family no matter what." Kim said "Of course." Sammie said "I am fine with having my Grandparents again." They all hugged. Dannie said "Adrian and I have some news."
Kim said "What kinda news." Dannie said "Adrian and I are expecting another baby." They all hugged and congratulated them. 9 months later Dannie gave birth to a baby boy and named him after her best friend Michael. MJ though that was sweet.

Chapter 11
It was soon for MJ to go back home. Dannie wasn't so sure whether she wanted to go back to LA or not. Dannie wanted to talk to MJ alone.
MJ said "Whats up?" Dannie said "I am not sure how to say this or what to do." MJ said "What do you mean?"
Dannie said "I just don't know. I mean leaving here again. Sammie grew up here while I was on the other side of the world. I don't want to take Sammie back to LA with me, Queensland is her home, I don't want to leave Sammie. But I don't want to leave you either. I am confused." MJ said "As much as I want you to come back to LA, You need to do what's right for you and your family. I can force you to make up your mind. That wouldn't be fair on you or Sammie. I will miss you, but I will always love you no matter where you end up."
Dannie said "That what makes it hard is you, You have been my life ever since I moved to LA and Leaving you is like leaving something special behind. I don't even know what to do." MJ put his arms around her and held her for awhile. They later joined the others. They were enjoying sometime together. Dannie wished it was like this forever.
Annabelle said "I have something to say, I am going on another 9 month trip with my friends. But Dannie when I come back I won't be living here anymore now you are back in our lives and Sammie's life. You and Adrian should live together with Sammie. You may never know, I'll find a nice guy on my trip."
Dannie started crying again MJ put his arm around her. Annabelle said "MJ can come and visit I am sure." Dannie said "You do know you are making this really hard." Annabelle said "I'm not, you need to be here with Sammie, Going back to LA will be a bit hard on Sammie?"
Sammie said "Aunty, I want mummy to do whats right. If she wants to go back to LA then I will go too. But she wants to stay here I am cool with that too." Dannie said "As much as I want to go back to LA, I need to be here. I need to be with family."
The next day Sabrina was going to take MJ back to the Airport to fly home. Dannie and MJ were talking. Dannie said "Mike, I just want to thank you for helping me and supporting me. I could never have done this without you."
MJ said "No worries. You just take care and keep in touch alright." Dannie said "I will. But most importantly I will always love you and miss you. I'll never forget our friendship." Dannie and MJ hugged. Sabrina and MJ left. They both waved good bye.

Chapter 10
Dannie and MJ had made up. Everyone was sitting in the lounge room chatting about the days events. Soon Sammie walked in.
Sammie notice there was visitors here. Sammie said "Hi there. whats going on?" Everyone looked at each other.
MJ Put his arm around Dannie, as Dannie was crying. Sammie said "I know the look I am only 10 years old and I won't understand look." Mallory said "No that's not it. But we do need to talk to you."
Sammie said "Whats up?" Mallory said "I am going to let Annabelle do the talking" Sammie said "Why is is your friend crying?" Annabelle said "She's just happy to see you."
Sammie said "Awe on does she always feel like when she see's people?" Annabelle said "Well there is something you should know. When you were a baby, your grandparents did something not right."
Sammie said "What did they do?" Annabelle said "Well how can I put this, I am not your real mum." Sammie looked at Annabelle and said "What? How can you say that? You are my mum!" Annabelle said "Sammie, I am your Aunty."
Sammie said "I don't believe you!." Annabelle said "I understand this will come to a shock, but your grandparents made a young mother give up her baby at the age of 14." Sammie said "So if you're not my mum then who is?"
Annabelle looked at Dannie and told her to come over. Dannie walked towards Annabelle and Sammie. Dannie said Sammie, that young mother who had her baby taken of her at the age of 14 was me."
Sammie was shocked. She didn't know what to say. Dannie said "I know you might be shocked, I never stop thinking about you."
Sammie said "If you are my mum then is Annabelle my Aunty and your boyfriend is my Dad?" Dannie said "No Your dad is next to Aunty Annabelle."
Sammie said "Right so why didn't you and dad stay together?" Dannie said "we were both young and my parents would not allow us to stay together"
Sammie said "ok I understand that, but where does this leave me what will I do and who will I stay with?" Dannie said "I am going to leave that up to you." Sammie said " I don't want to hurt anyone."
Sammie left the room she wasn't sure what she wanted to do. She notice MJ was sitting alone. Sammie walked up to him and said "can I sit next to you?" MJ said "Sure you can" Sammie said "Michael what do I do. This is all news to me and now I am not sure where I am"
MJ said "I can only say this, as much as I want you and your mum to be together I think you should do what is right for you. I am sure they will all love you no matter where or who you end up with. " Sammie said "I know, but I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings."
MJ said "I am sure they will be fine with whoever you choose or where you want to be." Sammie said "Thanks Michael, Dannie sure does see a good friend in you." MJ said "Not a problem. I'll leave you to it." MJ and Sammie hugged.
A few hours later They were all in the lounge room, Sammie said "Now that we're all here together. Before I tell you who I want to be with. I just want to ask, will you still love me even if I choose this person over the other?" Annabelle said "We all love you no matter what." Sammie said "That's all I need to know, I need to be with my real mum. Dad also needs to be with mum aswell."
MJ said "I can only say this, as much as I want you and your mum to be together I think you should do what is right for you. I am sure they will all love you no matter where or who you end up with. " Sammie said "I know, but I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings."
MJ said "I am sure they will be fine with whoever you choose or where you want to be." Sammie said "Thanks Michael, Dannie sure does see a good friend in you." MJ said "Not a problem. I'll leave you to it." MJ and Sammie hugged.
A few hours later They were all in the lounge room, Sammie said "Now that we're all here together. Before I tell you who I want to be with. I just want to ask, will you still love me even if I choose this person over the other?" Annabelle said "We all love you no matter what." Sammie said "That's all I need to know, I need to be with my real mum. Dad also needs to be with mum aswell."

Chapter 9
Dannie and the gang went back to Annabelle's place. Dannie had not said a word to MJ, she was avoiding him. after a few minutes she said "Mike can I talk to you alone." MJ said "sure what is it?" Dannie and MJ went to another room.
Dannie said "You mind telling me what you were trying to do back there?" MJ said "I was just voicing my opinion." Dannie said "Most likely not letting Mallory do some of the talk. She is the one that has to come up with something not you."
MJ said "I was just backing her up." Dannie said "None of this has anything to do with you. I didn't want you to even talk to Sabrina in the first place. Why?" MJ said "I thought I was doing the right thing."
Dannie said "The right thing is for you to stay out of everyone business and just support me. But no you thought it was best to get involved. Telling Mallory she should charge my parents. I didn't want her to do that. Well at least not right away."
MJ said "They deserved it what they did to you etc." Dannie said "You know you think you are some super hero who can fix things. Well I got news for you, it doesn't work like that, not with me not with anyone. It's between myself, Adrian, Annabelle, Sammie and Mallory Not you!." MJ said "Well I am sorry I thought I was trying to help."
Dannie said "No you were trying make it all about you. I feel you went out there and tried to make things worse." MJ said "How was I making it worse?" Dannie said "You think about it. First you demanded Mallory to Charge them when I didn't want to do that. I don't want to punish them that way. Sure I don't want them to see Sammie ever again maybe someday down the track things will change. but No you forced Mallory into charging them!"
MJ said "I never forced her." Dannie said "Oh really? what was that then? I saw it with my own eyes what you were doing. You were quietly saying to Mallory make sure you charge them. Don't think I wasn't listening. You know what, I wished I never told you about my life or even let you in my life. You are the worst friend ever. You did not even support me back there. Have a nice life! and also STAY OUT OF MY BUSINESS!" Dannie left MJ standing there.
MJ was shock after the argument he had with Dannie, maybe she was right that he was trying to make it about what he wants. He needed to sort it out. But Dannie was giving him the silent treatment.
Sabrina notice MJ was sitting alone she walked over to him and said "Is everything ok?" MJ said "No not really. I maybe the worst friend ever." Sabrina said "That's not true Mike, you are a good friend to Dannie. She'll come around I am sure of it." MJ said said "How can you be so sure. She clearly doesn't want anything to do with me anymore." Sabrina said "I am sure that's not true. Just give her a few hours, she'll calm down I am sure." MJ said "I don't know." Sabrina said "Mike don't be hard on yourself."
It had been awhile since MJ and Dannie had the argument, Dannie walked over to MJ and said "Mind if I sit down next to you?" MJ said "Why so you can have a go at me some more?" Dannie sighed and said "
Mike, look I just felt you were over protecting me more than supporting me. I know you are trying to help out that's fine but overprotecting me I didn't like." MJ said "What else could I do?" Dannie said "May a bit of Support would have been nice. That's all I ask for." MJ said "I couldn't just stand back now could I?"
Dannie said "Mike, can't you see what it's doing to our friendship. I don't want to lose you over this. If you just let me and my family handle this. I still want you there but just please no more trying to push Mallory into doing something that is not in her favour, I know you want me to reunite with Sammie but it will not work if you do what you're doing. So please just support me and let me and my family handle this." MJ said "I can do that." Dannie said "That's all I ask for thank you." MJ and Dannie hugged
Dannie said "You mind telling me what you were trying to do back there?" MJ said "I was just voicing my opinion." Dannie said "Most likely not letting Mallory do some of the talk. She is the one that has to come up with something not you."
MJ said "I was just backing her up." Dannie said "None of this has anything to do with you. I didn't want you to even talk to Sabrina in the first place. Why?" MJ said "I thought I was doing the right thing."

Chapter 8
Annabelle was not sure what to say. Adrian said "You ok?" Annabelle said "I'm not sure right now, just that how are we going to explain this to Sammie?" Dannie said "This will be hard on Sammie of course."
Annabelle said "But Dannie, it's not Sammie I am worried about, it's the parents. They are the ones that put me through this and you aswell plus Adrian. How am I to explain to our Parents what they have done wrong?"
Mallory said "We can have this talk with the Parents first as I feel they need to know what they've done wrong. Dannie and Adrian as parents you both have a choose of whether they still want Dannie and Annabelle's parents to be apart of Sammie's life."
Dannie said "Well I know the answer to that one." Mallory said "Yes I know but it's also up to Sammie aswell." MJ said "How we going to approach them? We can't just jump up and down and scream at them." Mallory said "I know what you are saying, but we need to talk to them in a well mannered way before we start with the questions."
MJ said "I'd be more than happy to have them charge." Mallory said "Now now Michael, we can't just charge them. It will be up to Sammie and her parents on what they want done." MJ said "So let them get away with it?" Mallory said "Have they not gotten away with this long enough?" MJ said "Yes so why can't we just charge them?"
Dannie said "Mike, I have a better idea than charging them." MJ said "No I don't care they should be Charge whether you have another idea." Mallory said "But what if Annabelle, Dannie, Adrian and Sammie don't want that?
MJ said "You're the Lawyer you have to do whats right." Mallory said "You are right I am a Lawyer but I am not gonna just charge them like that. We need answers before we can get to that point" Dannie said "Both of you please! Can we get to The parents before we get into a heated argument" MJ was about to say something, Dannie said "Not another word let's go" They went over. The plan was Dannie to come in last. Annabelle walked in. Annabelle's mum said "Hello Bell, where is Sammie today?"
Annabelle said "She is at friends." Annabelle's mum said "Awe I see." Adrian walked in. MJ and Mallory followed in. Annabelle's mum said "I see you brought some friends around, you guys like to have anything to eat?" Annabelle said "We're all full from lunch. But thanks anyway." Annabelle's dad walked in and said hello aswell. Just as one of them was about to say something Dannie walked in. The Parents mood changed. Annabelle's dad said "What the heck is she doing here?" Dannie said "I have as much right to be here." Annabelle's mum said "You're not welcome here."
Annabelle said "Wow is that how you speak to your daughter?" Annabelle's mum said "What daughter? you're the only one we have the sensible one." Annabelle's dad said something not very nice. MJ said "I beg your pardon?" Annabelle's dad said "Stay out of it!" MJ said "Oh no I will not. I know everything and so does everyone else in this room." Annabelle said "Yes we do know everything and Dannie has much right to be here."
Annabelle's mum said "Well if she was sensible 14 year old that didn't do what she did maybe she would be just like you." Annabelle said "Oh right, just coming home from a 9 month trip and I get a baby shoved in my face, yes Sammie who is Not my daughter? How can you do that to Dannie?" Annabelle's mum said "I was ashamed to have Dannie as my daughter after she got pregnant." MJ said "So you thought that it was ok to give Sammie to Annabelle after she was born and then kick Dannie out of home.
What kinda mother and father does that to their 14 year old daughter?" Annabelle's Dad said something . Mallory said "Sir I suggest you stop with your rude talk towards Dannie. You have no right to even speak to her like that."
Annabelle's dad said "I'll say what I want" MJ said "Oh no you won't. Dannie is Sammie's mother and you took her daughter away from her and gave Sammie to Annabelle who had no idea what happen. Do you think that was right? NO I think it was wrong!"
Mallory said "I'm gonna leave it up to Dannie, Annabelle and Adrian on what they want to do." Annabelle said "I'll go first, mum and dad I think you both are nasty and evil for what you done to me, Dannie, Adrian and Sammie, why should I stop talking to Dannie as she is Sammie's mother and Sammie should be with her mum NOT ME. so there for I am never forgiving you or even speaking to you, I'll leave it up to the real parents to decide on whether they should allow you to still have contact with Sammie or not but to me I don't think you should!"
Annabelle's mum said "You can't do that?" Mallory said "Yes they can!" Adrian said "I have to agree with what Annabelle said, yes you had no right to do this to Dannie or myself. I feel that Sammie deserves to be with her real mum. I there for not forgiving you either and never will. Why force Annabelle to marry me and be a mother when she would want a family of her own!" Annabelle's dad said "But we're family right?"
Dannie said "Not anymore you're not, I spent 10 years of thinking about Sammie, I did not deserve this kind of treatment at all, parents are suppose to be there for their kids NO MATTER what. as Sammie's mother I have the right to take away your rights of seeing Sammie ever again." Annabelle's mum said "No you can't do that. "
Mallory said "By rights yes she can do that, so there for you are no longer allowed to see or have anything to do with Sammie." Dannie said "Or anything to do with me or Adrian." Annabelle said "and that goes with me aswell."
Annabelle's mum said "What about I or your father what do we have to say?" MJ said "There is nothing you can say or do that will change anyone's mind. Why should you be allowed to be apart of their lives when you hurt them?"
Annabelle's mum said "We wanted what was best for both of them." MJ said "By what taking a young mother's child away from her and giving the child to her sister. is that what you want? No don't even answer that. I or the other's have nothing more to say."
Mallory said "Before we all leave, if you come near Sammie, I will charge you. You must stay away, if you fail to do so you'll be face a possible jail sentience. You must obey this." They left the parents standing there.
Annabelle said "But Dannie, it's not Sammie I am worried about, it's the parents. They are the ones that put me through this and you aswell plus Adrian. How am I to explain to our Parents what they have done wrong?"
Mallory said "We can have this talk with the Parents first as I feel they need to know what they've done wrong. Dannie and Adrian as parents you both have a choose of whether they still want Dannie and Annabelle's parents to be apart of Sammie's life."

MJ said "So let them get away with it?" Mallory said "Have they not gotten away with this long enough?" MJ said "Yes so why can't we just charge them?"

Chapter 7
Adrian was still in shock. Dannie said "What mum and dad told you is a lie." Adrian said "So why did you wait all this time?" Dannie said "I had no one to turn to how could I have." MJ said "Did you have any clue that you were the father?"
Adrian said "Dude this is all a shock to me you can't just throw questions like that at me." Dannie said "Don't speak to Michael like that, now answer the question?" Adrian said "Fine, no I didn't have a clue. All I knew or heard that Annabelle had a baby girl named Sammie. Then Annabelle came at me saying I was the father. I had no idea how."
Dannie said "Did you feel something was not right?" Adrian said "I just went along with it. Look as I said this is a shock for me. I understand it's not right for your mum to have done this Dannie, there is something though but I have kept it to myself." MJ said "What is that?" Adrian said "That Sammie is looking more and more like you Dannie, but I have only notice this for awhile. I knew she couldn't look like Annabelle."
Sabrina said "So why didn't you come and talk to me about it?" Adrian said "I just didn't want cause any trouble." Dannie was speechless. MJ put his arm around her. Sabrina said "You know what we need right now."
MJ said "What?" Sabrina said "A Lawyer" MJ said "Why do we need one of them."
Sabrina said Michael, none of us in this room is a Lawyer, I can't just take a child away from Annabelle, neither can Dannie or myself. Adrian is the father but he can't do so either. So there for we need a Lawyer who is also a Therapist, if you kidnap a child that would be against the law" MJ said "I don't think we should do that?"
Sabrina said "We have to. None of us except Adrian has the right to take a child away. The Lawyer has to step in. I know a good friend of mine who is a Lawyer and Therapist she is the best. She knows what to do in this situation."
Dannie said "Mike Sabrina is right. As much as I want to reunite with Sammie, I want a Lawyer be brought into this. I don't fee right taking Sammie away like that." MJ said "So where is this friend?" Sabrina said "Her name is Mallory, one of the best Lawyers in town and I know today she has off. So I'll call her to come over."
With in an hour Mallory came over. Sabrina introduced them to to Mallory. Sabrina said "Now as you know we need your back up on this." Mallory said "Yes, I have to meet the family first before letting Sammie go with her real mum." Dannie said "Then where from there?" Mallory said "It will be up to Adrian to make that choice seeing he is the father." Dannie said "Sammie needs her mother aswell!" Mallory said "I know but you have to realize, it's also up to Sammie aswell as Annabelle, it is not right to take a child away like that." MJ said "So what are we to do?" Mallory said "Does Annabelle even know who the mother is?" Dannie said "No. Sammie only knows Annabelle as her mum." Mallory said "So there for we can't just go over there and ruin happy family, We need to talk to Annabelle alone." MJ said "How we going to do that?" Mallory said "I known Sammie since she was a little girl, I know you gonna say why didn't you come to me sooner, but at that time I had no idea of the situation til now. I don't want Sammie to get confused yet. So we talk to Annabelle first as she'll need to understand the situation." Adrian said "What about Sammie?" Mallory said "Sammie will be at my daughters house today, So it's the best time we talk to Annabelle now. Then we'll deal with Sammie later."
MJ, Dannie, Sabrina, Mallory and Adrian went over to Adrian's place. Annabelle let them in. Annabelle was surprise to see Dannie.
Annabelle said "Dannie, you know mum is gonna be mad when she see's you." MJ said "Well let your mum get mad." Dannie said "MJ it's ok don't get worked up." Annabelle said "It's not that, mum cut ties with Dannie. For what I don't know."
Mallory said "You never knew." Annabelle said "All I can remember is mum handing Sammie over to me saying here is your child. Like what? I didn't get pregnant" Dannie said "That is because you didn't."
Annabelle said "But why would mum hand over a baby that not even mine. That's just not right. Adrian had said "She looks like someone else." Dannie said "That someone would be me?" Annabelle said "I never said you, why would I say you?"
Adrian said "The truth is Sammie does look like Dannie." Annabelle said "But how?" Dannie looked at the others. MJ said "You can tell you. We're here for you." Dannie said "Annabelle, you remember you were away for the 9 months?"
Annabelle said "Yes I do. I came back to a baby being handed over to me." Dannie said "Well in that 9 months someone was pregnant at 14." Annabelle said "Right? but how do you know?" Dannie said "Because that was me" Annabelle looked shocked.
Adrian said "Dude this is all a shock to me you can't just throw questions like that at me." Dannie said "Don't speak to Michael like that, now answer the question?" Adrian said "Fine, no I didn't have a clue. All I knew or heard that Annabelle had a baby girl named Sammie. Then Annabelle came at me saying I was the father. I had no idea how."

Chapter 6
MJ wanted to make it happen, he wasn't going to let Dannie give up so easy, Dannie was with MJ talking. Dannie said "Mike I don't know if it's such a good idea." MJ said "Come on girl, I am not letting you back out of this, everyone wants you to be with Sammie, why wast another 10 years without your daughter?"
Dannie said "She's 10 and may not understand." MJ said "What so you going to wait til she an adult and let her find her real mum? No I have heard many of these stories where the Parents reunite with their child when they're adults. You missing the child hood etc." Dannie said "What about Sammie? What if she doesn't want to know her real mum, what if she think I am some strange person."
MJ said "Dannie, we don't know that. But I know that whatever the reason is Sammie will come around. I don't want you to be childless for another 10 years. Adrian needs to be with you not Annabelle, they were force to get married."
Dannie said "There you go she has parents that love her. Why have me aswell." MJ sighed and said "Dannie, You are not making any of this easy. As I said you either with me or without me." Dannie said "What about what I want? What if I don't want to." MJ said "I know what you want, it's for you to be with Sammie."
Dannie said "But what if that's not gonna work out?" MJ said "We don't know til we get there. I am not giving up on you or Sammie without a fight. It's gonna happen and will happen. " Dannie said "How do I know you won't give up." MJ said "We've been friends for a long time now, do you think I would give on you right now. I am leaving for Queensland in 2 days time and you're coming with me." Dannie said "You win, I'll come with you then."
2 Days later MJ and Dannie were heading of to Queensland. Sabrina was gong to meet up with them. With in hours later their plane touched down. Sabrina was waiting for them. She saw them coming. Sabrina took them to her place. Sabrina said "I am so glad you both are here." Dannie said "Thanks great to be here." Sabrina said "I have not told Adrian or Annabelle that you both are here. As I want to talk to you both."
Dannie said "All I know is that mum gave Sammie to Annabelle. Not only that Annabelle has no idea who the real mother is." Sabrina said "No she doesn't. Adrian has no idea either. I was thinking we talk to him first?"
Dannie said "Does he even know that MJ and I are here." Sabrina said "I have told him I am having visitors." Soon Adrian came in he saw Sabrina with MJ and Dannie. He walked over to them. Sabrina said "Adrian glad your here." Sabrina said "Adrian do you have any idea about Sammie's mum?" Adrian said "Annabelle is Sammie's mum."
Dannie said "How can you be sure. You were only 14 at the time Sammie was born" Adrian said "How old is Annabelle?" MJ said Annabelle was a few years old than you and Dannie. She had not got back from who trip." Adrian said "then if Annabelle isn't Sammie's mum who is?" Dannie didn't speak. Adrian said "You 3 know something?"
Dannie said "Adrian Do your remember my 14th birthday Party?" Adrian said "What has that got to do with Sammie?" MJ said "Just answer her question" Adrian said "What was the question?" Dannie said "Do you remember the 14th party." Adrian said "I do remember the party, you were there, Regina, Stacey and Belinda was there."
Dannie said "That's right, do you remember the dare?" Adrian said "That was just a kiss!." Dannie said "But what about after the kiss?" Adrian said "Nothing happen?" Dannie said "We made out remember?"
Adrian said "We kissed that was all. We can't of made out." Dannie said "Yes we did." Adrian said "So if we made out.....wait in those months after the party you were sick? You weren't putting on weight were you? Dannie said "I was pregnant. Sammie was born." Adrian said "Sammie is Annabelle's daughter?"
Dannie said "No, that's what mum and dad think. It's ok for them to take a child away from her/his real parents when it's not. Sammie's real mother is me." Adrian did not know what to say.
