Nobody Knows:
It was Summer & Keanna was in Day Camp. Seanna figured she'd get a job but didn't count on nobody wanting to hire a six month pregnant sixteen-year-old. But when she walked into Betty's Bar & Grill, she wasn't expecting to get a 'yes' answer. The owner, Roxy LeBlanc, seemed like a nice gal. So why would she want to hire someone that was pregnant?
That answer became evident when her husband walked in. He was a Sergeant in the Army. Mrs. LeBlanc was a military spouse. Seanna was a military kid, or BRAT. The LeBlanc's were nice and so were Mrs. LeBlanc's friends or 'Tribe' as they called themselves.
Seanna was given a small job, something that was starting up at Betty's. A small Daycare for families wanting some time away from their kids if they wanted to eat alone. And that meant Keanna didn't have to stay on Post with another mom waiting for Seanna to get off work. But Seanna had another hidden talent other than being good with kids. She had gone to private school up until the age of ten, which had made her the best singer in the school. The only practice she got was with Keanna in their room and while in the shower.
As she was given keys to Betty's she figured she'd better say something about her 'sister' Keanna and about the ace that she was a pretty fair singer, just in case there was a talent show at all. Mrs. LeBlanc said she'd take it under advisement.
When Seanna got back on Post, she went straight to the school and picked up Keanna. Almost everyone was looking at her with disapproving looks. If they only knew the truth. Keanna ran out to her yelling sissy (something that had been hammered into her head). Mommy was okay only at home. If you weren't at home, sissy was the only word aloud. Major Blacksmith didn't want anybody to know that Keanna was Seanna's daughter. And nobody was to find out who Keanna & Seanna's unborn child's father was. If they were to find out, Major Blacksmith would be very angry.
Seanna was to start work this weekend so Keanna would have to either go with or stay at another mother's home until Seanna got home from work. When they got home that day, they found a message on the answering machine. It was their father. He'd said that he expected Seanna to get a job that had good daycare & that he'd be home as soon as his Tour was over, which was supposed to be in a few months, right around the time Seanna was due to deliver.
