She pulled up to the house that she had grown to love as a child. As she grabbed the sleeping baby out the the back she only hoped that he would grow to love this house as much as she did. She could only hope that her family could grow to love her son as much as she did too. As she walked up the sidewalk all the courage that she had when she board the plan back in San Diego just slipped way.

She saw the door open and there was Miguel standing ther with a smile on his face. "Theresa, you're home." Miguel said as he walked down the side walk to greet her. I guess he must have seen the baby sleeping in his car seat. "Well who is this little guy?" he asked thinking that Theresa was babysitting for a friend like she always did before she left Harmony. "Miguel this is my son." She said walking into the house.

As she stepped into the living room a rush of memories came back to her. She realized then how much she actually missed Harmony. She walked over to the couch and sat down. She placed the car seat where Ethan was sleeping on the floor.

"Miguel, it is so good to be home. Where is mama and how have things been for you and Charity? she said trying to change the subject and to avoid the question that she knew was coming.

"Mama went to the Crane Mansion. Now Theresa, don't try and change the subject. Now you took off all those months ago and now you come back with a baby and you say he is your son. Listen you better start talking and you better start doing it now." Miguel told his sister.

Theresa finally broke down and told him the entire story and why she really left. It wasn't that she left because she could not tell them but she left because she thought it was best for everyone. She asked her brother not to be upset with her.

"Theresa, I am not upset with you, but I do with that you would have came and told us in the beginning, including Ethan. We could have helped you out and you would not have been alone. I don't think that Ethan would have married Gwen if he knew the truth. he replied.

"Listen Miguel, that was my point. I could not lose my baby. It was all that I had left of the love that I shared with Ethan. And I knew that if Gwen or Julian found out that I had a child with Ethan they would use all there money and power to take my baby away from me." Theresa said as the tears fell from her face.

"Theresa, do you really think that Ethan would do that to you?" he said trying to calm down his sister.

"Truthfully I am not sure what he would do with Julian be...." Before Theresa could finish she heard the door open.

"Mijo, I am home." Pilar yelled as she walked into the living room where Theresa and Miguel where talking. She stood in complete shock as she saw her daughter that she had not seen in months sitting on the couch. "Theresita.. you have come home to me." Theresa stood up and hugged her mom. She could feel the tears coming from her mama's eyes. "Where have you been?" She said as she finally seen the tiny infant starting to make a stir in the car seat below.

"Theresa, do you mind if I walk him around for a while? You and Mama have a lot to talk about." Miguel said as he picked up Ethan. "Of course not." She said as she watched her brother walk out the kitchen door with her son.

"Theresita... what..." Pilar said as her daughter interupted her. "Mama I know you want to know where I have been and what has been going on. Ok first let me tell you that I have been safe. But a lot has happened since I have left. And there is things that have happened that made me leave so long ago. I need to tell you about Ethan." "Ethan Crane... Theresita tell me you are not on the Ethan Crane thing again. He is married to Gwen now." Pilar said as she looked at her daughter with sadness in her eyes.

"No Mama, I do not mean that Ethan." Theresa said. "Then what Ethan are you talking about? I don't know anyone else name Ethan." Pilar replied. "Well I do.. The baby that Miguel was holding is also named Ethan. Theresa told her mama. "Theresita that was very nice of you to babysit for a friend. " Pilar said as she hugged her daughter.

"No Mama, I am not babysitting. That baby is my son. Mine and Ethan Crane's. Pilar looked at her daughter in complete shock.
