Jack took the bottle for his four month old son Troy. He stood up and carried Troy over to the wall where loads of photos were hanging.
"You see that girl?" Jack pointed to a photo of his wife and Troy looked at the photo. "Thats your mommy. Remember she's always looking after you."
Troy reached towards the photo and smiled. Jacks wife, Lucy, died when Troy was 1 month old. Jack carried Troy into his room and put Troy into the crib and waited for him to fall asleep. Once he was gone Jack went into the living-room and turned on the tv. An hour later Jack heard the sound of a baby crying. He could tell the loud was crying was coming from outside. After another ten minutes the crying still didn't stop. Jack went outside to see what was going on. When he got out no one was outside. He walked out to the garden. He was saw a pink blanket on the front step. He went up to the step and unfolded the blanket. Inside was a little baby girl wearing a pink baby suit. Jack saw a note on the blanket.
Dear Mr & Mrs Bolton,
I'm an old friend of Lucy's. We went to High School together. I have to leave my daughter with you. I lost my job and at risk of losing my house. I know my daughter will be safe and happy with you. Her name is Gabriella. She is 2 months old. Her birthday is the 14th Of December. I would like to ask you to use 'Montez' as her last name. I might come back for her when she's older but I just can't look after her now. I'm sorry. Please make sure that Gabriella knows that I love her and I always will.
Maria Montez
Jack carried Gabriella inside as she continued to cry. He knew she was crying cause she didn't know who he was. He carried her into the kitchen and filled one of Troy's bottles with milk and gave it to Gabriella. After another few minutes Gabriella finished the bottle and stopped crying. Jack lifted her and put her into Troys travel cot. He covered her with the pink blanket he found her in.
"What am I gonna do?" Jack said out loud.
He grabbed his phone and called his friend Robbie.
Meanwhile Robbie Stewart finally got his twin daughters, Alexa and Jamie, to fall asleep. The past five trys to get the girls asleep failed and when one twin woke up they both woke up. Robbie slowly walked towards the door and when he got to the door his mobile phone rang in his pocket. He quickly ran out and answered it.
"What?" He snapped.
"Well hello to you too!" Said Jack.
"Jack what the hell? You know I was looking after the twins tonight!" Began Robbie. "I just spent the past three hours trying to get them asleep. So you better pray the phone didn't wake them!"
"Robbie this is an emergency! I need you to come over."
"Okay, Okay, Julie will be home any minute and I'll come over!"
30 Minutes later Robbie knocked on Jacks front door. Jack opened it.
"About time!" Jack said while letting Robbie in.
"Sorry! Are you okay? Is Troy okay?"
Jack took Robbie into the bedroom. "We're fine but look!" Robbie looked into the travel cot and saw Gabriella.
"Lucy had twins?" Asked Robbie.
"Don't be stupid!" Replied Jack. "I found her on my doorstep, and look!"
Jack opened her baby suit and showed Robbie the bruises on Gabriella's chest, back and arms.
"David Danforths wife
Tanya is a doctor!" Said Robbie. "I'll call her."
"Don't!"
Said Jack. "It's almost midnight!"
"She won't mind!"
An hour later Tanya was done looking over Gabriella.
"Well Jack I can tell that Gabriella got the bruises from being dropped." She said and Jack's eyes widened. "Jack I know it's hard. Looking after Troy as a single parent but you can put Gabriella up for adoption."
Jack looked at Gabriella who was sleeping. "I can't, I can't give up on her like her mother did. I'm going to keep her!"
"Okay!" Said Tanya. "But I want you to go to the police tomorrow. I'm starting to think Gabriella was abused by her mother."
"I will!"
The next day Jack took Troy into his room where Gabriella was still sleeping in the travel cot.
"Troy this it Gabriella she's going to stay with us for a while!" Jack carefully placed Troy onto the cot laying him on his back.
Troy rolled over onto his stomagh and put his arm over Gabriella's chest. Jack was amazed by what he just saw. He quickly got his camera and took a photo. He smiled at the two of them. He knew Gabriella would be safe with Troy.
