"I'm good. I just have one question." Troy said.
"What is that?" Gabriella asked.
"Who is Mackenzie's father?" Troy asked her.
Gabriella stopped and froze.
Gabriella thinking.
How am I supposed to tell Troy that I was raped? It's really hard to talk about it.
"Tr...Troy, I really don't want to talk about that." Gabriella said in a shaky voice.
"Why not, Gabby?" Troy asked confused.
"Because...Troy...I..." she got cut off by Emma screaming. Thank goodness. Gabby thought. She ran upstairs to see what was wrong.
"What's wrong sweetheart?" Gabriella asked when she got to Emma.
"I want my mommy!" Emma said scared.
"She's not here sweetie, but I am. What's wrong?" Gabriella asked the 3-year old. It took Emma a minute to calm down, but she finally answered.
"I...I had a bad dweam." Emma said still crying a little, and Gabby pulled her into her lap.
"What was it about?" Gabriella asked, comforting the little girl.
"Well, there were bears chasing me and mommy, and they caught mommy. They were about to eat her when I woke up." Emma said in tears.
"It's okay sweetie. You know what happens in your dreams don't come true, don't you?" Gabriella asked her just to make sure. Just then, they heard a loud noise coming from the kitchen.
"Oh no! It's the bears!" Emma screamed and buried her face in Gabriella's shirt.
"Sweetie, it's not the bears." Gabriella said as she picked up Emma and rushed down the stairs. When they got down there, they saw Troy on the ground with spilled ice around him. Gabby and Emma giggled.
"Troy, what are you doing?" Gabriella asked between giggles.
"Well, see, I was fixing myself an iced coke, and I kinda spilled the ice, and I was trying to pick it up, then I slipped and broke this cup." Troy said embarrassed and holding up a pink glass cup. Mackenzie then came downstairs because she was woken up when Troy fell. She took one look at the broken cup and started crying.
"What's wrong, princess?" Gabriella asked as she put Emma down and walked over to Mackenzie.
"That was my favowit cup." Mackenzie said crying and giving Troy a dirty look.
"It's ok. I'm sure Troy didn't mean to break your favorite cup, did you Troy?" Gabriella asked.
"Of course I didn't. Mackenzie, I am so sorry for breaking your favorite cup. It was an accident." Troy apologized to Mackenzie.
"It ok, but I'm still mad." Mackenzie said.
"Mackenzie and Emma let's go put you two back to bed, ok?" Gabriella said.
"Ok mommy." Mackenzie said smiling.
"Ok Aunt Gabwiella." Emma said.
Gabriella picked them both up and put them to bed. After she made sure they were asleep, Gabriella walked back downstairs and went to talk to Troy.
"Hey." Gabriella said to Troy as she went and sat down on the couch next to him.
"Hey Gabby. Finally get the girls back to bed?" Troy asked her.
"Yep. Mackenzie's still upset though." she replied.
"I know, but I really didn't mean to break her favorite cup." Troy said seriously.
"I know that and I'm sure she knows that. She just has a hard time forgiving people. When I accidentally broke her favorite lamp, she wouldn't talk to me for about a day." Gabriella said.
"How did she suddenly decide to forgive you?" Troy asked.
"I gave her a chocolate cupcake." Gabriella said.
"Gabby, Gabby, Gabby. What are we gonna do with you about all this bribing?" Troy asked playfully.
"Shut-up Troy. It works." Gabriella said playfully.
"You know, you never answered my question before. Who is Mackenzie's dad?" Troy asked.
"Troy I really don't want to talk about that." Gabriella said seriously.
"Why Gabriella? Why don't you want to tell me? It can't be that bad." Troy asked.
"You know why Troy! Do you really want to know?! I was raped! I was raped! There I said it!" Gabriella yelled as she broke down to the carpet in tears.
"Oh my gosh, Gabby. I am so sorry! I should have leaved you alone after you didn't answer me the first time I asked you." Troy said sadly as he got down on the carpet with her and hugged her and let her cry on his shoulder.
She settled down a little bit and told him what happened.
"It happened about a year after you moved away. When I was 16. Me, Miley, and Sharpay were walking to Miley's house that evening to study. It was pretty dark out, so we decided to take a short-cut through a dark alley. Then he stopped us, took our money, cell-phones, and tied us up. Then...then..." Gabriella couldn't finish her sentence because she broke down crying again, but Troy knew what had happened next.
"I am so sorry, Gabby! Did they ever catch him?" Troy asked.
"N...no. That's why I'm not ever going to let Mackenzie out of my sight for a second while we're outside or anywhere when we're not at home." Gabriella said still crying a little bit but not as bad as before.
"You're a good mother Gabby. You know that?" Troy asked.
"Yeah." Gabriella said hugging Troy tightly.
"I love you, Gabby." Troy said sweetly and Gabby was shocked.
