Steve woke up with Catherine moving in bed. He hugged her and felt the scent of her on the back of his neck.
"You didn't sleep well, did you?" he asked.
"No, I'm anxious. What are we going to do to get his hair?"
"I thought better and I'll collect his saliva, as I did with Wo Fat when I thought he was my brother," Steve said.
"But he'll be suspicious, Steve."
"I'm going to do it in a way he'll not be suspicious of anything."
"Ok", Catherine answered.
"Come here!" Steve turned her to him and kissed her.
Steve was worried about her. "Johnny's chance to be our son is practically zero. How will she react when she gets the test result?" Steve thought.
"I need to go to Headquarters. I'll wake up Johnny, and you can stay in bed, maybe you can get some more sleep," Steve told her.
"I can't sleep. I'll make breakfast for the two of you," Catherine said, standing up.
Steve woke Johnny up and then went to get dressed for work.
Johnny got dressed and went to the kitchen.
"Good morning, Catherine," Johnny said, smiling.
"Good morning, dear. Did you sleep well?" Catherine asked affectionately.
"Yes, thank you," he replied so happy like a child, because she cared about him.
"Do your college classes start when? " Catherine asked Johnny.
"In fifteen days", he replied.
"So, at lunchtime, I'm going to pick you up for lunch together and then we'll buy your school supplies", Catherine said.
"No, Catherine, I'll buy it when I get my first payment at Five 0" Johnny told her.
"But I want buy it for you, dear".
Steve also went downstairs and had breakfast with Catherine and Johnny, and then they went to HQ. In the middle of the way, Steve stopped in front of a medical supplies store.
"Wait a minute, Johnny, I'll be right back", Steve said, going to the store.
After everyone had arrived at Headquarters, Steve thought it was the right time to collect Johnny's saliva.
"I got orders from the Governor to do some exams, so I'll need your cooperation," Steve said.
Lou and Jerry didn't want to take the exam and Danny also refused.
"I'm not going to do that. I don't even know why this exam was requered", Danny said.
"What's your problem? I'm going to take the exam too," Steve said, collecting his own saliva.
"I'm not going to do it either," Tani said.
"And you, Johnny, don't you trust me either?" Steve asked.
"I trust you, Steve, I'll take the exam", said Johnny.
"Great Johnny, thank you", Steve said, collecting the boy's saliva.
Steve came home so he could collect Catherine's saliva too. He found her in the shower.
"Hey, Cath, I got Johnny's saliva, now I need yours too," he said, entering the bathroom.
Catherine opened her mouth and Steve also collected her saliva.
"I need to get this to Noelani urgently," Steve said.
"Oh, what a shame! I thought you'd take a shower with me", Catherine said, smiling.
"It's a very tempting proposition, but I can't my love. I really need to go back to Headquarters", Steve replied.
"Ok. Take care our baby", Catherine said smiling.
"Cath, don't do this with you. I'm afraid of your disappointment", Steve said, kissing her lightly.
"I'll not be disappointed, Steve. I know, my heart feels because he's my son, he came out of me. I talked to him a lot when he was here in my belly and he knows my voice. He told me that my voice is like the voice of his mother in his dreams".
"All right, Cath. I need to go now". Steve didn't want to argue with her anymore and left.
At lunchtime, Catherine went to fetch Johnny for lunch. She approached him and kissed his forehead. Danny was with Steve in the office and saw this.
"Doesn't it bother you that Catherine hugs and kisses that boy so much?" Danny asked Steve.
"What do you mean, Danny? Johnny is like a son to Catherine".
"You don't want to see this, then don't cry when she trad you for a 17-year-old", Danny told Steve.
"You say that because his presence annoying you since the first day. I don't know why you don't like him", Steve said.
"Who says I don't like him? I just think his service is expendable and he has the same annoying way you do".
"Do you really think that? Do we have the same way of being?" Steve asked.
"Well, I haven't yet seen him act like an animal, but he has some similarities with you", Danny said, and left the office.
Steve took Catherine and Johnny to lunch and began to pay attention to every gesture of Johnny. "I'm getting paranoid like Catherine," Steve thought.
Fifteen days later, Catherine and Steve took Johnny to his first day in college.
"Good luck, dear. Today begins a new cycle in your life and I'm happy about it," Catherine told him. She felt like he was a small child and she was taking him to the first day of class.
"Thank you, Catherine," Johnny said, hugging her.
Johnny also hugged Steve tightly and Steve could tell Johnny was a little afraid.
"You're a smart boy, stay calm, I'll pick you up later," Steve told him.
Johnny walked a little hesitantly toward college and Steve saw a group of boys looking at Johnny in a way he didn't like.
"This guy's going to be trouble", Steve thought.
When Steve got in the car with Catherine, he got a call and was nervous.
"What happened?" Catherine asked.
"It was Noelani, she already has the DNA test result".
