Chapter 1

Eighteen year old Susan Kennedy smiled as she rang the doorbell. She had received a phone call from her older sister; Sharon Korzhakov. Sharon's husband Yuri was working late and Sharon had called to ask Susan to come and help take care of the twins; Ivan and Anya, both one year olds. At that moment the door opened.

"Hey Susan." Sharon greeted her sister. "Thanks for coming around."

The sisters hugged and Sharon led Susan inside; the younger sister was blind while Sharon required glasses. They headed through to the main room where the twins were playing. Ivan looked up and saw the two sisters.

He smiled widely. "Aunt Susie!" He cried happily.

Anya also smiled as both infants got to their feet and hurried over. Sharon and Susan smiled and Susan knelt down and hugged the twins. Susan let go of the twins and stood up.

"Hi you two; how are you?" she asked happily.

Both of them replied at the same time. "Good."
Susan nodded. "That's great; I'm here to help look after you until your daddy gets back."

"Yay!"

The twins then returned to their games while Susan sat down on the sofa. Sharon got herself and her sister something to drink and also sat down; she let out a happy sigh as she watched her children play together.

While they sat Susan turned to her sister.

"So, Sharon; how's married life been?" She asked.

Sharon laughed. "It's brilliant; to know that I get to wake up with Yuri every day; knowing that I wouldn't want it any other way. Then there's the kids, they're great too, always so happy, energetic. They're a real handful at times but, that's what I love about them."

Susan nodded happily. Sharon thought for a moment and then asked.

"Say, I've been out of touch for a while; how's everyone been doing?"

Susan cast her mind back, remembering.

She finally answered. "Well; Holly and Alex are doing pretty good; they're thinking of settling down and marrying soon too. Athena's still as energetic as ever, driving them up the wall trying to keep up with her."
Both sisters laughed at that; Sharon still kept a close eye on the twins but for the moment they were fine.

Susan continued.

"Tonya and Kareem are still going strong too. She's met with the rest of his family now; from what I heard the visit went well, they all liked her. As for Sam and Rachel…"
Susan paused and both girls grimaced. Two months ago Sam had been kidnapped and sexually tortured by his psychotic ex-girlfriend Tara Williams. Rachel had been kidnapped too and forced to join in with the acts. Due to the events that had occurred there in which Sam was forced to rape his girlfriend; there were concerns that Rachel might have been impregnated during the ordeal. They were still waiting to hear for certain.

Susan sighed and managed to continue.

"There doing their best to recover; but they're still waiting for news."

Sharon nodded. "I see; I just hope things work out for them. They've suffered so much; I just want them to be happy."

Susan nodded sadly but was then caught off guard by Sharon's next question.

"What about you, how's your life been?" After a pause Sharon then added. "Do you…You know, have a boyfriend yet?"

Susan shook her head; sighing; out of all her friends and family, she was the only one still single.

"I've, I've dated a few guys but it's never worked out." She admitted. "You know, it's always been the ones I told you about."
Sharon nodded in understanding; however her thoughts were racing.

'This can't go on. I have to do something to help Susie.' She thought to herself. 'I have to try and help her find the right guy.'

Her thoughts were cut off however by the door opening. A few seconds later Yuri entered the living room.

"Daddy!" The twins cried out as they ran over to him.

Yuri smiled and picked them both up.

"Hey, good to see you two." He said as he kissed them both.

He smiled and also greeted his wife and also greeted his sister in law. "Thanks for doing this Susan,"

Susan smiled and nodded. "No problem. I'll help you guys out anytime. I'll just call mom and let her know you're back."

With that Susan left the room. Sharon turned to her husband.

"Yuri, there's something we need to talk about, it's about Susan…"

Yuri nodded and listened while his wife told him of her concerns.

Meanwhile; at the hospital, Sam Stokes sat fidgeting nervously in his seat in the waiting room. He knew that soon he would hear from Rachel the results of her ultrasound. He had also finally made up his mind. He knew what he was going to do, if the answer was what he was sure it was. He looked up again, waiting for her to return, he then saw her walking down the corridor towards him. She was clutching a small picture in her hands. He stood up and approached her.

"Rachel?"

She handed it to him and he looked as she announced.

"I'm pregnant Sam, it's just like we thought…But it's still too early to tell if it's a boy or a girl."

Her voice was shaky, fearful of what his response would be. He smiled and embraced her; he felt her relax against him, letting out a shaky breath.

"I'm here for you Rachel." He said. "I've decided that for sure. Whatever you decide to do, I'm at your side."

He stepped back, still holding her; tears were glistening in her eyes and she smiled back at him.

"Sam…thank you; I…" She hesitated and then told him. "I want to keep it; it's our baby."

Sam smiled and nodded. "Let's go, we need to tell the others."
Rachel nodded and together they left the hospital; ready to take the next step in their lives.
