In the doorway stood a greeneyed, redhead and she was smiling. "Are you kidding?" Miley said to Jackson. "What's wrong with her?" Jackson asked.

"Nothing, how did dad score someone like her?" Miley asked. "Reba, this is my daughter Miley." Reba smiled at her and Miley returned the smile.

"Aww Robbie Ray she's just like you." Reba said. "And I thought Miley sounded weird." Oliver said. Lily hit him with a pillow and he yelped.

"It's all eight, I get that a lot." Reba said. "Ok Ms. Reba." Miley replied. "Now darlin' you call me Reba, it makes me feel old when they say Ms. Reba." She explained.

"Can we call you Red?" Oliver asked. "If you want to live to see tommorow you won't." Reba answered. Everyone broke out into giggles, Miley liked this new lady and she knew her dad loved her.

"Well Reba and I have reservations at the restraunt, we'll be back later." Robbie Ray explained. "Bye guys!" Reba yelled as she walked out the door behind Robie Ray.

Miley, Lily, and Oliver walked outside and Oliver noticed something on the ground. Oliver opened the creased piece of paper and held it up to the light.

"Hey guys, check this out." Oliver said motioning for them to come and see. "What is it Oliver?" Lily asked.

"It's a picture of Reba, and three boys, and three girls. Do you know who they are Miles?" Oliver asked.

"I don't know, I really haven't met her, so I'm not gonna ask." Miley replied. "Ok, but at least give it back to her." Oliver said handing her the photo.

"Lily, whoever these ppeople are they seem to be happy and Reba seems to love them all. Whoever they are, it looks like they love her back." Miley answered.

"Well, maybe we oughta call the number on the back." Lily said turning it over to show a number. "254-8796." Miley said.

"Well let's go for a walk on the beach and think of our plan on figuring out who these people are." Miley said.

Lily, Miley, Jackson, and Oliver walked on thge beach for over an hour until they were coming up to the house and heard a car pull up.

"It's dad!" Jackson and Miley yelled. "Come on, let's get inside quick so we can give her the picture." Jackson continued breaking into a run.

"Lily, you got the number?" Miley asked. Lily gave her a thumbs up sign and the three started running up to the house.

"Hey guys!" Reba said as she saw the kids on the couch panting and heaving. "Did yall just run a mile?" Robbie Ray asked.

"More like two." Oliver answered and everyone hit him. "It's ok you guys, we know yall can't sit still long enough, so I'll let the beach walking slide." Robbie Ray said putting his hands on Reba's shoulders.

Reba winced and gritted her teeth and shook her head. "Sorry, I fell remember?" Reba asked. "Yeah, it's all right." Robie Ray said kissing her on the cheek.

"Ok well yall get to know each other, while I change outta this dang suit." "Robbie Ray, I told you not to wear suits, just where jeans, I do all the time." Reba anwered.

"Can I put on a shirt?" Robbie Ray laughed as Reba hit him with a pillow. "Duh you ding bat." Reba answered.

"So tell me about yourselves." Reba said plopping on the seat. "Well I'm Oliver Oscar Oken know aroiund the world as..." Oliver pointed at Lily and Miley and they went "Ohhh." Reba started laughing and pointed to Lily.

"I'm Lily Ann Trescott, and I like to skate." She answered. "Lily Ann that's a good name it's perfect for..." Reba cut her sentence short and pointed at Miley.

"Well my name's Destiny Hpe Stewart, but everyone calls me Miley. And you all ready know Jackson." Miley answered.

"You mean J-dawg?" Reba asked giving Jackson a high five. "Yeah, but his name is Jackson Rod Stewart, where does J-dawg come in?" Lily asked.

"Well I have a..." Reba again cut her sentence short and shook off the memory.

"Reba, what do you have and who are the people in this picture?" Miley asked handing her the photo.

"You guys want the truth?" Reba asked. "Yes." Everyone asked.

"Well the blonde woman in red is Barbra Jean, she had an affair with my husband Brock, who is the blonde man, and Van and Cheyenne got pregnant at seventeen and they have another one on the way, and of corus, my other two, Jake, who loves video games and Kyra the redheaded rocker." Reba explained.

"Wow that's so weird because Mikey's..." Oliver started to say and Miley and Lily flipped him off the couch. "Miley, what about you?" Reba asked. "I can't tell you." Miley bit her toungue and walked into the kitchen.

"Hey guys, lemme talk to Miley." Reba whispered and everyone walked outside. "Miley, what's been bothering you? You can trust me." Reba said. "You don't know." Miley answered. "Darlin' I do, I was once a teenager once to, now tell me." Reba explained. "Ok, but you promise you won't tell anyone?" Miley asked. "I promise." Reba said patting her arm.

Miley winced and pulled away her arm. Reba took it back and rolled up the sleve. "You did what I did to didn't you?" Reba asked. "What do you mean?" Miley asked. Reba let out a long sigh and pulled the shoulder part of her shirt down to show cut marks.

"Reba? Why?" Miley stamered. "Darlin', if you knew about my past, you'd probably would know why." "Well I got a few hours tell me." Miley said.
