"Thank-you come again"said Blair as she waves to a lady leaving her store."Mom,Here

is a list of all the shoes we have."said a13year old girl with blond hair and Brown eyes as she walks into the room."Thanks Morgan,Wheres your sister?"asked Blair as she takes the clipboard from Morgan."Half sister,She's in the back cleaning the bathroom."said Morgan."Sorry half sister,Tell her to come here when shes done."said Blair as she sets the

clipboard down.Morgan go's into the back.

A lady walks into the store and looks around.Blair walks over to her."May I help you?"

asked Blair."Yes do you sell Pretty Pink perfume number3?"asked the lady with a texas

drawl."Im sorry we ran out Monday,The truck comes Thursday,I could give you a rain check."said Blair."No No I'll come back then,Tell your husban I said Hi."said the lady as

she leaves."I will,Come again."said Blair .

I hate that Jay has to be the mayor.I knew this would happen.People telling me to say hi for them,Him working late hours seven days a week.Well the pay is wonderful,We do live in a very nice house better then the one I lived in when I was younger.Morgan and Marcie do go to the best school money can by.Life is great but why do I feel like somethings missing form my life.Thought Blair as she saw her stepdaughter walking into the room.

"Morgan said you wanted to see me."said Marcie a 15 year old girl with hazle eyes and a mixture of Blond and brown hair which is up in a poneytail."Yeah,I need you to go home and cook dinner."said Blair."I hate cooking dinner,Do I have to?"asked Marcie."Yes,Make what ever you want."said Blair."Fine,When is dad comming home?"asked Marcie as she blows a bubble with her pink bubble gum."I dont know,Sorry sweetie."said Blair as phone rings."Hello,Texas Style,Blair Gentry speaking."said Blair as

Marcie leaves.

Later that night Blair,Marcie and Morgan are sitting around a table eatting dinner .The

phone rings and Marcie runs to answer it."Hello,Dad!"said Marcie with a smile on her face.Morgan drops her fork and runs over to the phone."Dad!let me talk."said Morgan trying to take the phone away from Marcie."When are you comming home,Oh I see,Fine

see you in the morning,I guess."said Marcie as she slowly hangs up the phone."When is

he comming home?"asked Morgan as she and Marcie walk over to the table and sit down."Sometime between 2:00am and 4:00am,He has some things to go over at the

College Station Courthouse."said Marcie as she picks at her rice."Oh,I was hopping he

could fix my three way make-up mirror."said Morgan as she takes a sip of water."Well I

was hopping alot of things to!But you know what its not happening because his job has

taken over his life!"Yelled Marcie."Sorry!"yelled Morgan."Im going to bed."said Marcie

as she stands up then walks away."Hey Its your turn to do the dishes."said Morgan."I

cooked the dinner,You clean the dishes."said Marcie as she climes the stairs."Morgan

Gentry clean dishes I think not."said Morgan."Blair Gentry give Morgan Gentry 15$ this

week I think not."said Blair."I get the picture."said Morgan as she picks up some dishes

then go's into the kitchen."Go to bed when you'er done."said Blair as she stands up.

"Ok!"called Morgan from the kitchen.Blair walks up the stairs.

Blair stops by Marcie's door and thinks about going in then thinks it would be best if she

had some time alone to cool off.

Blair walks into her and Jay's bedroom.She lays down on their bed and thinks about what

happened in the dinningroom.Marcie was right Jay's job had taken over his life,I wish I

could go back to the day I had first met him .Or not.Thought Blair to herself.

I had alot of problems,I just had left everything I had ever known over a fight that was my fault.Blair lets out a deep breath of air as she thinks of this.

I was having trouble paying my bills and I was going to loose the condo If I did not pay a down payment and I really needed my own space so the night I took the money from the school I was drunk.I thought that the many drinks I had helped me feel better so I kept on drinking till it got out of hand.

The day a girl came and told me that another student was planning on killing other students I had had three beers and half if not the whole whine bottle the night before.My

life was so messed up.

If I told everyone that the news papers and the news were right that I had stolen money and had a drinking problem.Think about me Blair Warner steeling money to pay bills and having a drinking problem no one would by it.

So after the shooting I went to jail then I was let out after they found me not guilty.So they

thought.

I went home and war broke out so I packed my bags and moved here to the very

lovely College Staiton Texas where I ment Jay and his three year old daugther Marcie.Jay got me help for my drinking and we got married then had Morgan.If I never met Jay I dont know where I would be.Thought Blair to herself as the bedroom door opens.

A man with light brown hair and brown eyes walked into the room."Jay your home."said

Blair as he walks over to her."Yes I am."said Jay as he sits on the bed and hugs her."I missed you."said Blair as he lets go of her."I cant stay long I have to do something,I just

thought I'd see you before I leave."said Jay as he gives Blair a quick kiss."Where are you going?"asked Blair."Somewhere."said Jay unsure."Ok when you make up your mind let

me know."said Blair as she kisses him once more.Jay stands up and walks toward the door

he turns around."Blair."said Jay."Yes honey."said Blair."I love you,Please for me and the

kids sake don't ever change."said Jay."I wont."said Blair as Jay walks out the room and

and closes the door behind him.

Two hours later Blair is waken from a deep sleep to here the loud sound of a gun go off.

Blair stands up grabs her robe and puts it on very fast and runs into the hallway almost bumpping into Morgan and Marcie whom were already in the hallway."Mom what was

that."said Morgan."I dont know,Im about to find out."said Blair as she walks down the

stairs."Me too."said Marcie running down the stairs."Wait for me."said Morgan as she

runs to catch up.

Blair walks around the huge livingroom looking fo any sign of what happened."Marcie

check the basement,Morgan check the second floor,I'll check this floor."said Blair as her

and her girls go off to the floors they were told to go to.

Marcie opens the basement door and walks down the stairs.She turns on the light and

walks around.As she turns the corner she sees something she never thought she'd see.

"Oh My God!Mom!Morgan!Mom!Morgan!Mom!"screamed Marcie.Blair rushes down the stairs with Morgan right behind her."Marcie what is it whats wrong."said Blair."D..

Dad..He..He."Marcie could bearly speak without crying so she points over to the floor.

Blair runs over to her husbans body which is laying in a puddle of blood.Blair checks for a pulse."He's dead."said Blair as she stands up and walks over to her two girls and hugs

them as they all break down into tears.
