"When do you think that she'll come home?"asked Dorothy as she looks over at a clock
on the wall that reads 10:00pm."I dont know,I just hope she's not drunk when she comes
in."said Edna."Well it'll take more then hope,She's almost always drunk."said Marcie as
she walks into the livingroom where Edna,Natalie and Dorothy are talking."Marcie how old were you when Blair and your father got married?"asked Edna."Two."said Marcie.
"Did Blair have a drinking problem then?"asked Natalie."I know she did drink some,I know that dad said she had a problem but she got help got married then on my thrid birthday Morgan was born and she had been fine for years."said Marcie."Do you know
why she started again?"asked Edna."Um...Look I know what your doing.Your pumping me for info on her and well we'er not really that close but she's the only mother i've known so if you will excuse me I have to get some chips for the poker game so that I can beat my sister's butt again.By the way why dont you just ask her why she started?Im sure that she knows."said Marcie rudely as she leaves and heads for the kitchen.

Why does everyone ask me about Blair?I mean Morgan and Blair are 100% closer then
I could ever be with Blair.I want to be close to her,I think..I miss Daddy he and I were as
close to eachother as Blair and Morgan only these last two years has been different Dad
spent more time with his job that I only saw him for may be an hour a week if I was that
lucky.I wish my life could have been better.Thought Marcie as she gets a bag of Sour Cream and onion chips down from a shelf in the kitchen then sets the bag on the countor
and takes a picture out of her pocket."I know why she broke the picture.I guess I'll keep it if she does not want it.I miss you Daddy."Said Marcie as she puts the picture in her pocket
then grabs the bag of chips then walks upstairs.

"Lets..See..I bet...a buck."said Felicia as she lays a dollar on the desk."I see your buck and raise you five."said Lisa as she throws five dollars on the table."I fold."said Felicia as
she throws her cards down."So do I."said Morgan as she sets her cards down."I dont,I'll
see your one and five and raise you two dollars."said Callie as she sets the money on the
table."Here's your two dollars,I call what'ya got?"asked Lisa."Four Ace's."said Callie as
she sets the cards on the table so eveyone could see what she had."Four King's,You win
again."said Lisa as Callie takes the money.
"Food is here."said Marcie as she waves a bag of Sour cream and onion Chips."Yes im
starving."said Lisa as Marcie walks over and sits down in a chair by the desk."Who won the last game?"asked Marcie as she opens the bag and hands it to Lisa."I did."said Callie
with a huge grin on her face."Why am I not surprised."said Marcie as she takes the cards
and starts to mix them."Im going to put my Pajamas on."said Callie, As she stands up she
reveals two large bruises one on the right leg and the other on her left leg."Cal My God

over to Callie."Look this is my life!Stay out of it! Im clumsy thats all!"Yelled Callie as she
leaves.Lisa and Marice look at eachother both knowing that there is more to problem then
