Chapter 7

The next day Trish was getting ready for the BBQ when Hayley came in.

"Mom can I take my guitar with me" Hayley asked.

"If you want, your Grandpa Gilbert used to be in a band with my daddy" Trish said.

"Really" Hayley asked.

"Yeah I don't think they talk anymore which I think is a bit sad but maybe they can become friends again" Trish said.

"Mom Jeff's not gonna be there is he" Hayley asked.

"No he's not" Trish said.

"That's good" Hayley said.

"Come on lets go or we'll never get there" Trish said.

"Ok mom" Hayley said.

When they got there Gilbert was doing the BBQ while Amy was getting the table ready so Trish and Hayley went over to Amy.

"Hey Amy" Trish said.

"Hey Hayley, Trish you're here" and hugged them.

"So where's Matt" Trish asked.

"He'll be out in a minute" Amy said.

"Well if it isn't the second most beautiful woman from Carolina" Matt said.

"Hey Matt" Trish said and hugged him.

"You must be Hayley it's nice to meet you" Matt said.

"Hi Matt" Hayley said.

"Dada" Megan said.

"Yes princess" Jeff said.

"Me want mama" Megan said.

"Ok" Matt said and put her down then she ran to Amy.



"She is so cute" Trish said.

"Thanks Trish I'm so glad I had a baby girl I was being overrun with men , but now that your back it's an even field" Amy said.

"So where's your little man" Trish asked.

"He's with Jeff they should have been back by now" Amy said.

"Amy I thought Jeff wasn't coming" Trish said.

"He's not they we're supposed to be back before you got here they must have got stuck in traffic" Amy said.

Then Gilbert came over.

"Hi Trish I just wanna say sorry for my son and I'm sorry too for not being there for you and Hayley" Gilbert said.

"Thanks Gilbert, Hayley come here and meet your grandpa" Trish said.

Then Hayley came over.

"Hi grandpa" Hayley said.

"Hi sweetie" Gilbert said and hugged her.

Then Jeff came around with Matt Jr.

"Mom what's he doing here" Hayley asked.

"Momma I made the baseball team" Matt Jr said.

"Sweetie that's great" Amy said and hugged him.

"Hey bro" Matt said.

"Hey Matt" Jeff said.

"Amy I'm just gonna go inside and get a drink" Trish said.

"Trish you don't have to go I'm going I'm really sorry I crashed your party" Jeff said.

"Jeff it's not like that" Trish said.

"Don't worry I know, well I'll see you all later" Jeff said and walked off.

Then Gilbert went after him.

"Jeff" Gilbert said.

"What dad" Jeff asked.

"So I should have said this to you along time ago you need to be there for Trish and your daughter" Gilbert said.

"I know that dad but as you can see they hate me" Jeff said.

"They don't hate you son they're just hurt by what you did you need to make it right with them" Gilbert said.

"I know that dad but what do I do" Jeff asked.

"I'll tell you what you need to do you need to get to know that wonderful daughter of yours then you can think about what your gonna do about Trish" Gilbert said.

"Ok dad but how Hayley hates me" Jeff said.

"Then make her see what a good person you are" Gilbert said.

"How can I do that I left her mom while she was pregnant with her and have not seen them since" Jeff said.

"Jeff you need to think of something do you want to lose them again" Gilbert asked.

"No of course not dad but I just don't know what to do" Jeff said.

"Jeff you need to think of something" Gilbert said.

"Ok dad I'll try my best but I think I'm too late" Jeff said.

"Your not to late Trish still loves you I can tell it's in her eye's and the eye's never lie" Gilbert said.

"I hope your right dad, coz I don't know how I managed all these years without her" Jeff said.
