A/N: Hello, everyone! Thank you so very much for your reviews! They mean a lot to me and keep me going! I didn't know that being upset would help me write this chapter, but it helped me as I wanted to focus on something else and I decided to focus on this story. This chapter continues right where we were left in the previous. I hope you like it.

"What?", they all said together as they looked at the doctor shocked and confused.

"Oh, I thought that I had told you.", the doctor remembered that he was called to attend to Sharon Beck before he could tell them the whole truth. "During the tests we did about two weeks ago to see if you or Mrs. Raydor could donate blood for Ms. Beck, we found that Sharon Beck wasn't your biological mother.", he informed them.

"Yes. You informed us about that after Rusty had donated blood for her.", Sharon told the doctor with a sigh.

"During the tests we found something else. We did the tests twice to be absolutely sure about the result. I remembered that I was about to tell what we had found but I was called to attend to Ms. Beck.", he took a deep breath and looked from Sharon to Rusty. "We found that Mrs. Raydor is your biological mother.", he finally told them.

Rusty looked at the doctor in shock and tried to process what he had just heard. Emily was looking from Rusty to her mother. Ricky was trying to understand how it was possible for Rusty to be his biological brother. All the while, Sharon was looking at Rusty trying to understand how could he be her biological son.

"Your birthday is on 10th of August. I gave birth on the 7th.", she didn't stop looking at him but she was confused. "They told me my son died a couple of hours after he was born. I buried him.", she started feeling dizzy and felt herself falling backwards when her knees buckled.

However, the doctor who was standing near her managed to catch her before she could hit the floor. He helped her stand up and guided her to a chair to sit down. He checked her pulse and found that it was very quick which worried him a lot.

"One night she was so very drunk that she started talking without having any knowledge of what she was talking about.", Rusty looked at Sharon with tears in his eyes. "She started talking about the night I was born. She said it was wrong to take me away from my mother.", he didn't stop looking at her. "I didn't give notice to what she was saying because she was drunk.", he felt the tears falling from his eyes.

At that moment he turned around and ran out of the waiting room. Sharon stood up to follow him but a sharp pain in her abdomen made her lose consciousness. Ricky looked at the doctor who had managed, once again, to caught his mother and watched him as he picked her up and ran quickly out of the room

"Emily, call Andy and tell him to come quickly at the hospital. I will try to find Rusty and come back as soon as possible.", he made sure that she had picked up her phone and called Andy before running quickly out of the room in search of Rusty.

After she ended the call she just sat on the bed looking in the space. She was older and she remembered more things than Ricky. She was only twelve years old when it happened but she could still remember it as if it was yesterday. She had been so scared about her mother but she had to be brave and strong for Ricky.

7th of August 1996

She didn't manage to sleep for more than an hour. The last few days it was difficult for her to sleep more than three or four hours because of the baby and the back pain she had. She couldn't lie for long on her back because the baby would start to kick her and she had to turn on her side to calm it down. She sighed heavily and rolled on her back for a few moments.

It was half an hour later that she got out of the bed. She was so grateful for the maternity leave as she couldn't possibly go to work, especially today, because she was feeling very tired and in pain. She couldn't drive in her state, so she decided to keep the children at home for the day. She took a quick shower, as quick as she could, and got dressed before the kids woke up.

She wanted to do something nice for them and made some pancakes. She smiled when she noticed them standing by the table looking at her. "I made pancakes for breakfast.", she simply told them and started setting the table. "Today, you are going to stay home with me.", she told them after a few minutes.

"Is everything alright, mummy?", Emily was a little worried about her mother because she was paler than usual.

"Yes, darling. It's just that I can't drive you to school today because I am not feeling very well to get behind the wheel.", she smiled at her daughter trying to reassure her. "We can watch movies together and maybe in the afternoon, if I am feeling better, we could go to the park for some ice cream.", they smiled widely at their mother and made her heart swell with love.

They finished eating their breakfast and she cleaned the table. Emily decided to help her mother with the cleaning up while her brother was choosing the movie they were going to watch. A few minutes later the three of them were sitting on the sofa watching the movie Ricky chose. The kids were so very glad that they could spend all day with their mother.

A couple of hours later the movie ended and Sharon looked at her children. She noticed that Ricky had fallen asleep with his head on his sister's lap and smiled at them. Emily looked up at her mother and smiled at her. Slowly the two of them stood up from the sofa and made their way to the kitchen to start preparing the lunch. It was a routine that they usually did on Sundays and they loved it.

Sharon turned around to grab a pan to place it on the stove when she felt a sharp pain and doubled over. After a few seconds she straightened up and took a few deep breaths. She placed the pan on the stove and walked to the fridge to take out some things she needed. Once more she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen and doubled over. Suddenly, she felt something wet and when she looked at her hand, she panicked. It had blood on it. She looked down between her legs and saw blood covering her dress.

"Mummy, are you okay?", Emily saw the blood and immediately panicked.

"Emily, I want you to be a very good and big girl. I need you to call an ambulance immediately. Tell them that I am nine months pregnant and I am bleeding.", she watched as she daughter did just that and leaned back on the counter for some support.

Emily was told to stay on the line and keep talking to her mother as they wanted to prevent her from fainting. Sharon wanted to close her eyes and let the unconsciousness and the darkness to take away the pain but she couldn't leave her little girl to deal with it alone. She tried very hard to stay awake for her children. She sighed in relief when she heard the sirens of the ambulance. Emily ended the call after informing the operator that the paramedics had arrived and looked at her mother.

"Go put on your shoes and bring Ricky's shoes as well. Then wake him up and help him get them on. The paramedics will want you to come with us to the hospital.", the paramedics ran quickly to her as Emily did what her mother told her.

It was as she had said. Two paramedics took Sharon to the ambulance while a third one took the children with him. They placed the kids in the front while they worked on Sharon in the back. A few minutes later they arrived at the hospital where a nurse took Emily and Ricky to a waiting room. Emily helped the nurse call her aunts to come while Ricky just sat next to his sister hugging tightly a teddy bear.

"Emily?", a hand on her shoulder and someone calling her brought her back from her memories. She looked up to see who was talking to her and found Andy and Louie looking at her worried. "What happened?", Andy asked her now that he was there. He hadn't asked many questions through the phone.

"The doctor came to check me and commented on how glad he was about Rusty being with his biological family. We were all shocked and surprised.", she took a deep breath and continued. "The doctor told us that the day they found out that Beck wasn't his biological mother, they also found out that my mother is his biological mother. He wanted to tell you but something happened and he had to leave.", she informed them and noticed the shocked, surprised and confused looks they had. "Rusty ran out of here quickly. Mom stood up to go after him but fainted. The doctor took mom quickly while Ricky told me to call you and then ran quickly in search of Rusty.", she was still trying to understand everything.

"Wait a second!", Andy looked at Emily not believing her. "You are telling me that Sharon is Rusty's biological mother?", he was confused and didn't understand anything. "I thought Sharon had a miscarriage two years after Ricky?", he didn't know that Sharon had a third child. She had never said anything about being pregnant and giving up the baby.

"That is true. Two years after Ricky was born, dad came back and they made an effort to fix everything and be a family. He stayed for a few months but left again. Mom discovered that she was pregnant but a couple of weeks later she had a small accident with the car and lost the baby.", she realized that her mother hadn't told him anything else about her miscarriage or the other pregnancy.

"How can Rusty be her biological son?", it was Louie who asked her this time.

"I don't know, either.", she was confused and curious. "Mom gave birth about twenty years ago but she gave birth on the 7th of August. Rusty's birthday is on the 10th of August.", she took a deep breath to calm down. "The doctor told us that our baby brother died a couple of hours after he was born. We had a small funeral and we never talked about it again.", she looked down at her hands and let a few tears fall freely.

At that moment the door opened and the doctor walked in. He approached them slowly and looked at them. "How is my mother, doctor?", Emily asked him worried that something happened to her mother or to the baby.

"She is sleeping right now. We managed to avoid the risk of the miscarriage. She will have to stay here for two or three days to monitor her and make sure that there isn't any risk of miscarriage anymore. After that she will have to stay at home for about a week.", he informed them with a sigh.

"Thank you, doctor.", Andy said and turned his attention to Emily. "Did Ricky find Rusty?", he was worried about Rusty.

"He hasn't come back yet. Maybe he found him and they are talking. I don't know.", she started crying and shaking. Soon she felt two strong arms hugging her and comforting her.

Unfortunately, Ricky hadn't found Rusty nowhere near the hospital or at the condo. He had run out of options of where his brother could be. He walked in the hospital exhausted and worried. He went straight to his sister's hospital room to find out news about their mother. He entered the room and closed the door behind him.

"Did you find him?", Emily asked her brother worried.

"No, Em.", he sat down in the chair next to the bed and placed his head in his hand. "I don't know where he went. I looked everywhere near the hospital and at the condo, but nothing.", he sighed and looked at his sister. "How is mom?", he was worried that something happened to her or the baby.

"They are both fine. Although, they are going to keep her three or four days here to monitor her and avoid the risk of a miscarriage completely.", she looked at her brother and sighed heavily.

The four of them sat in silence. They didn't know what else to do. Andy and Louie had learned that it was better to let Rusty cool off before talking to him. They just hoped that he was alright and safe. They all turned when the door opened a few minutes later and the doctor walked in.

"I was just informed that Rusty is in Ms. Beck's room and I wanted to inform you.", he watched them sigh in relief. "Mrs. Raydor is better and she can receive visits.", he informed with a reassuring smile.

"Andy, I think you should go and see her.", Ricky looked at him with worry. "She will ask about Rusty and I don't know what we should tell her.", he ran his hand through his hair and sighed.

"I will figure out something. Keep an eye on Rusty. I don't know what he will do.", he saw them nodding and followed the doctor to Sharon's room.

Sharon Beck felt that someone was watching her and she opened her eyes to figure out who was it. She wasn't expecting to see Rusty and smiled widely at him. She sat up a little to be able to look at him better. He was looking so good and mature than the last she saw him. However, she noticed that he was looking at her very angry and she was a little confused.

"You came to see me, honey.", she held out her hand for him but he just stood there without moving and only looking at her angrily. "Rusty?", she was getting impatient now.

"You are not my biological mother.", he took a step towards the bed. "The doctor found out that you are not my mother.", he stopped and looked at her to see her reaction. "My biological mother is Sharon Raydor. The woman that took me in her home and showed me what the word 'family' means.", he was so very angry and he wanted answers. "How can I be her biological son? What happened?", he almost yelled at her but kept his voice low.

"Rusty, honey. I…", she wanted to continue but was interrupted by him.

"What happened? How I ended up with you? Why you told me that my birthday is on the 10th of August?", he wanted to leave but he wanted to learn what happened.

"Daniel had left me before I found out that I was pregnant with you. I tried to find him but he had left from Los Angeles.", she looked down at her hands. "I was having contractions from the 6th of August and I went to the hospital on the morning of the 7th. I gave birth to a baby boy and I heard that another woman had given birth at the same time. I had him with me in the room when I found out that he wasn't breathing.", she looked up at him. "I was so angry that my baby boy had died and that the other woman's son was alive. So, without anyone noticing anything I changed the babies. I took you from your mother and I gave her my dead baby.", she noticed that he had taken a couple of steps back. "I lied that I had given birth at home and change your birthday for the 10th of August as I didn't want to be caught.", she looked him in the eye.

"You took me from my mother because you couldn't stand that your baby died a couple of hours after he was born?", he couldn't believe what he had just heard. "I didn't grow up with my mother, my sister and my brother because of your selfishness?", he wanted to kill her but he took a few deep breaths to calm his nerves. "I don't want to see you again. You took me from my family and made my life a misery.", he closed the door with a loud thud and went straight to his sister's hospital room.

Emily and Ricky were sitting on the bed looking something in his phone when the door opened and closed with a thud. They looked up to see who had entered and were surprised to see Rusty looking at them with tears in his eyes. They both sighed in relief that he was in front of them safe and unharmed, well except from his arm because of the accident.

"Rusty, are you alright?", Emily asked her younger brother and before she could say anything else, she found her arms full of Rusty who was crying and shaking.

Ricky stood up and watched in amazement the scene in front of him. They knew that Rusty never cried in front of people but now he was crying in front of them and in their sister's arms. He imagined that what Beck had told him made him cry like this. He cursed that woman for what she had put him through all his life. He continued watching them as Emily was rubbing soothing circles on Rusty's back and noticed that he had started calming down.

A few minutes later they found out that he had fallen asleep in her arms. Ricky sat down in the chair he had occupied before while Emily and Rusty slept. Soon, he fall asleep as well as he was so exhausted from all the day. It was how Andy found them about an hour later. He had come to tell them that they could go see their mother but he didn't want to wake them up. He was relieved that Rusty was once more with them and smiled a little at the scene in front of him.

"Oh God. Please help us.", he whispered and hoped that everything would get better in the future for all of them.
