They exchange looks at the question.

"Well, a lot happened actually. Get back to the bed and we'll talk. You're not to leave your bed yet." Jean pushes her slightly back to her bed and adjusts her pillow as she lays her head down.

"Okay now I'm ready to hear."

"What's the rush? You need a little more rest."

"I feel well rested. I mean, I've rested for almost twenty four no?"

They exchange another look and smile. "Almost twenty fours?"

"Don't tease her, come on."

Ford walks to her and sits on the edge of the bed with Ashley in his laps. "You've been there for four days."

"Ei. Stop pulling a prank on me. Is this your revenge for what I pulled? I already apologized, come on." Sue laughs and then stops. "You're not kidding."

"Yes, I'm not so yes, a lot happened while you were in bed."

"Now I really want to know. Stop being so secretive and let it out."

"Okay. We'll let Holly tell you... Come on Holly."

She advises. "Anyway, Sue was adopted not very long after she got here by a family named the...""Greenes.""... Greenes." She looks at Ford. "You already knew that.""Yes. We found Sue already.

She wants the relish the moment.For as long as she could remember, the image of her mum had somehow being erased from her memories and all that she could remember were some too little things about her that always intruded into her dreams on very rare occasions.But now, she's no more an orphan. She has her family back, even though she still doesn't know who her father is, she's not exactly curious yet as the moment is too precious to be ruined.

Ford sits with Marshall on the couch, lost in thought."You've been spacing out since we found out that Lene was your mum."Ford snaps out of it. "hm?""That's exactly what I'm referring to." Marshall comments.Ford sighs. "What if...?" He starts and shakes his head as if to rid his head of those damn thoughts but it doesn't work.Marshall hesitates, then places his hand on Ford's shoulder. "You should trust your mum more than that. She's a pretty sweet woman. She won't do that to her own best friend.""I want to think that but I keep having doubts.""Get rid of them. Darlene is nothing like that."Ford smiles at Marshall thankfully. "Who would have known?""That what?""You'll actually be able to comfort someone, knowing the right words t

    Ford's voice filled with barely checked passion and Sue's lips not looking it's original size and colour is more than enough distraction and motivation for them to do their tests hurriedly and excuse the couple.As soon as they leave the room and the last person closes the door behind herself, Ford crosses back to the bed and they go back to their act of passion like they weren't just interrupted.Ford moves Sue slightly and she winces against his mouth. He freezes for a full minute before pulling away. "You're hurt." He berates himself and shifts away.Sue looks hurt. "Don't go.""You're hurt. I should have known better. You drive me so mother fucking crazy!" He rambles while running his hands through his already extremely messy hair. "Give me a minute." He leaves and closes the door behind him.He walks to the toilets at the end of the hallway and enters the men's room. He looks at the mirror and his tousled hair. He opens the tap and splashes the cold water on his face. With his we

Once in a while, Ford will bring her to visit her mum in the hospital. She'll play for a bit and then go back to Darlene's or even Holly's.Bored out of her head and restored back to health, at least most of it, she plays scrabble with Jean whenever she's around and they chat for sometime before it's past visiting hours and stuffs.Finally, Ford signs the form for her discharge and Sue is allowed to leave for home.For days on end, Ford had been somewhat busy, all around the place, always talking to someone on his phone and most times, Marshall and then sometimes other people that

She gives him a small hug and he places a light kiss on her forehead."I would have loved to stay right now but I'm expected in the kitchen. Would you like to eat?""Anything you make, I'm sure it'll be delicioso."Sue laughs. "Delicioso? Cute."She leaves the room, happy that there doesn't seem to be any secrets between them anymore.What could she possibly wish for again?

    "Come on, not again Ash..." Sue groans while trying to get Ashley into her cloth for the day. Almost like the little girl knows she's frustrating her mom, she keeps running around the room, throwing stuff around and jumping around.Sue sighs. "I wonder why she's in such a good mood today." Ford comments by the doorway. Sue had not seen him come in so she turns around to face him."Good morning." She greets him and Ford pecks her lightly on the lips. "I would have said my own good morning back to you but it's starting to seem like it's stressful morning instead. Let me help you, go sit."Ford grabs Ashley with one hand as she tries to evade him."My little ninja. Come on, don't you want to see Chris today?"Sue furrows her brows. "Chris? Who's Chris?""Oh, she's your daughter's new best friend. He's a he." He whispers as he pushes down the gown atop her head while she fusses.

    It's Ford's turn to facepalm, although there's a hint of hidden laughter on his face. "We'll deal with you two later. Let's attend to the reporters so we can get some rest, what do you think?"Sue nods, agreeing. "Please.""Attention please. Come this way if you have questions. We'll answer them to the best of our abilities."This grabbed all attention towards the couple who stand side by side, Ford's large hands enclosing Sue's in his. "So we heard you have questions for us?""Is a wedding really happening? I mean you're two influential families. Don't you want to give a chance to others?"They all laugh."Well, what can we say when fate drew us to one another? I can't swap her for the world and I'm sure it's a mutual feeling."

Every minute, she would shake without reason, like a sudden gust of wind was blown on her and it worried everyone so much until they went on their vacation where Ashley was always within eyeshot. Everyone had eyes on her and others, ready to make another lesson of anybody who tries to try shit with them as an individual and as a family as a whole.For a whole month, they visited every amusement park, every theme park, every Five Mi

    Ford stands with the Chief of the Police Force as they both watch the body get covered and the ambulance leaves with the other.The chief barks out orders to his men and they respond with gusto and then he faces Ford and smiles warily. "What really happened here?""They both had kidnapped my daughter and sister. I wanted to teach them a lesson but I didn't even get to. Brian got his hand shot off by Angela while she fell through that window all on her own. I guess the guilt from shooting her partner was too much but I don't think she'd want to die so the falling must have been an accident." He explains, meeting the Chief's eyes very bravely and squarely."Hm, I see. So that's what happened. We'll get the body to the morgue while the man will be taken to the hospital. I never thought I'd see a severed hand like that, it looked so roughly pulled or torn apart. Do you know about that?"Ford shakes his head.

"You know it is not your fault right? Those bastards must have known one way or the other that whatever happened was a result of their own choices."Sue tries to smile. "It's not that actually but thanks for being here with me..." Sue glances at Ashley as the girl snuggles closer to her, putting her head on her inner arms. Sue turns to Tanya and smiles appreciatively. "You know, I never had the opportunity to adequately thank you for what you did even after you got beaten while doing it. I really owe you a lot."Tanya smiles widely. "You don't need to thank me. It's what any human would have done,

"Call the authorities! Immediately."
