Today Bosco was going to meet with his daughter Amanda, for the first time in about a year.

"Reese, you're going to be late." Faith said to Bosco as he got dressed

"I am moving as fast as I can." Bosco said to Faith as he put on his shoes

"I don't want you to be late. This is the first time you have talked to your daughter in almost a year." Faith said

"I was thinking about asking Amanda if she wanted to spend the weekend with us. If it's okay with you?" Bosco said as he put on his jacket

"Yeah that's fine with me, Reese. Now leave. You are running behind." Faith said before Bosco a kiss and pushing him out the door

Bosco walked into the restaurant and looked for Amanda. When he finally spotted her, he walked over and sat at the table.

"Hey Mandy!! How have you been lately?" Bosco asked as he looked as the menu

"I've been fine. How have you been lately, dad?" Amanda replied

"Same. I was wondering if you would like to come and spend the weekend with Faith and me." Bosco said to Amanda

"I would love to spend the weekend with you. Does it have to be this weekend though? I am going to Acquire the Fire in Baltimore this weekend." Amanda told Bosco

"Any weekend that you want to spend with me would be great." Bosco said

"How about next weekend?" Amanda asked

"Next weekend would be fine. I can pick you up after school on Friday." Bosco said

"I still have one more week of suspension left." Amanda said

"Sorry, I forgot." Bosco said

"I can have my boyfriend drop me off at the police station. That way you can get a chance to meet him." Amanda said

"That would be great meet me there around 2:30 p.m.. Then we will go pick up Emily and Charlie and go home." Bosco told Amanda

"I will see you next Friday at 2:30. I am supposed to meet my youth group leader at church in 20 minutes ." Amanda said as she put on her varsity letter jacket

"Okay. I love you, Amanda." Bosco said as he gave Amanda a hug

"I love you too, dad." Amanda said as she walked out of the restaurant

Over the next week Bosco got Amanda's room ready for her. One day Bosco asked Faith if she minded if Amanda were to come live with them on a regular basis. She said it was okay with her, if it was okay with Amanda and her mom.

Amanda walked into the 55th Precinct House at 2:15 with her boyfriend Carlos.

"Can I help you?" A desk Sgt asked Amanda as she walked through the door

"Yeah, I'm looking for Maurice Boscorelli. Is he around?" Amanda asked

"He's in the locker room. Would you like me to go get him?" The desk Sgt asked

"That would be great." Amanda said before sitting down on the bench

Amanda waited for about 10 minutes before she saw her dad and step-mom approaching.

"Hey Mandy! This is Faith." Bosco said before giving her a hug

"Hey dad! I remember seeing you at school with Emily that day. Dad, this is my boyfriend Carlos." Amanda said

"I will see you on Monday Amanda." Carlos said before leaving

The sound of a cell phone ringing brought them all back to reality.

"Hello, oh hey Tyler." Amanda said into the cell phone

"I will meet you guys outside." Faith said to Bosco before walking outside

"I left it on the bus. Can you bring it by my dad's house later. The Address is 10002 81st Street between 2nd and 3rd apt 5-c. Okay I'll see you later. Amanda said before hanging up the cell phone

"Who is Tyler?" Bosco asked as they walked out of the station

"He is my youth group leader. I left my Lacrosse stuff on the bus and he is going to drop it off for me." Amanda said starting to get angry

"I don't like that attitude." Bosco said

Later that night Bosco asked Amanda if she would like to come and live with them on a regular basis. She said she would like to and that she could move in a month if that was okay with him. Bosco said it was fine with him.
