Liberty's POV

Today is my son's 16th birthday. I haven't seen him since the day I gave birth. I wonder what he looks like… I bet he looks like J.T. just like J.T…. J.T. would have loved to have met his son. They would have been friends.

RING RING!

Hearing the phone ring I got out of bed. Without even looking at the caller I.D. I picked it up.

"Hello?"

"Liberty! It's me, Toby."

Toby J.T.'s best friend…. He would no doubt have been the godfather…..

"Liberty? Are you there?"

"Ya Tobes, What's up?"

"A kid just showed up at my apartment. He asked for you and… J.T. He said his name is Matthew Gates. He kind of looks familiar. Do you know him?"

"No," I replied instantly, then I thought back to 16 years ago. My son's adoptive parents last name was Gates….."Wait! ask him how old he is!"

A moment later I heard Toby return. "He said he turned 16 today. Why do you ask?"

"Tobes!" I screamed into the reciever. "Don't let him leave your apartment! Not even if he says he will be right back! Okay?"

"Sure, but why?"

"I think he is my son."
