Note: this chapter is about Brenda finding out Sonny left town. Brenda will play an important part in this story, and I'm not sure if I will keep her and sonny friends or have them date again or have Sonny end up with Olivia. and Brenda and Jaxs aren't together in this story in case anyone was wondering.

Chapter 2

It was now 9:00 am in the morning and Brenda was knocking on the door to Sonny penthouse holding coffee and bagels in her other hand. "Sonny open up it's me Brenda." There was no answer. "Come on Sonny you can't go through this alone." There was still no answer. Brenda turn the knob on the door, it was unlocked. "Hum that's weird Sonny never leaves his door unlock." Brenda looked around and noticed that Sonny guards were also no where to be found. Brenda opened the door and walked into Sonny penthouse looking around cautiously seeing if there was any sign of a break in. Nope everything was in the same place it always was. "Sonny! Sonny are you here?" Brenda shouted as she ran up the stairs to his room. He was there, his room was neat and clean the way it was always was, and his bad actually look like it wasn't even slept in. She noticed his closet was open so she looked in there and found that clothes and his suitcase were missing. Brenda went back down stairs to the foyer and noticed two envelopes on the table in front of the window. One had her name on it the other was for Robin and it was definitely Sonny handwriting.

"Dear, Brenda I guess if you're reading this you probably have realized that I'm not here. I have decided to go back home to my old neighborhood, Brooklyn well Bensenhurst to be exact. I need time away from Port Charles and everything that has happened, I need to deal with Stone's death in my own way I my own time, and I think going back home will help me with that. There are just too many memories here and I just need to get away from them. I know it seems like I'm running away but if I've stay here the memories would only further to haunt me like a ghost. I hope in time you can understand why I need this time away to heal. I promise to keep in touch and will come back eventually, but until then please give me this time and don't look for me. I'm sorry if this sounds harsh, but I case you don't already know you are very important to me Brenda and you'll always have a special place in my heart don't forget that. You have been here for me in so many ways that I will always be grateful to you for that. I wish only happiness and the best for you Brenda.

Will all my love,

Sonny

P.S. take good care of Robin for me; she is going to need to more then ever right now.

Brenda pressed the letter up against her heart and closed her eyes for just a minute. She picked up Sonny phone and dialed Robin number. "Hey girl it's me Brenda, I have something to tell you. Its about our friend Sonny. Meet me at Kellys in an hour. Ok I'll see you then." Brenda hanged up the phone and put her letter and the one addressed to Robin, which was still sealed, in her purse. She took one last look at Sonny penthouse and then left.

"Hey about I take you guys out for lunch my treat, it will give us some more time to catch up Olivia and me and Dante here can talk about the greatness that is baseball and the Yankees." "Yeah can we mom, pretty please?' "Yeah mom can we?' Sonny asked Olivia in a joking way and smile that charming smile of his. Olivia just smile and laughed at both sonny and Dante faces it was adorable sight if she ever saw one. "Ok Sonny launch would be great." Sonny rubbed his hands together and was filled with excitement. Sonny could remember the last time he felt excited about anything. "Ok were do you guys want to go?"
