Part 3
"Shall we go inside, maybe then you can tell me how you plan on finding your mother" Molly took the girls had and led her in to one of the large sitting rooms. The two sat down and Molly turned and looked again at the girl, there was something very familiar about her, something that she couldn't put her finger on.
"first of all, what's your name" the girl froze for a second, as if wondering if it was safe to reveal her name, "Roxy" Molly smiled "I'm Molly" Roxy felt a bit better.
"So how do you plan on finding your mother" Roxy frowned a bit but she grabbed for her back pack which she'd placed on the floor, she hugged it close to her chest.
"I have a photo of her. Maybe someone will recognize her" a look of hope appeared in the girl's face. All her dreams rested on an old photograph.
"Can I see the photo?" Molly asked softly, the girl nodded and she opened a small flap on the back of the bag, she pulled out a photo its edges yellowed with age. She gently passed it to Molly who looked down at it she gasped
Meanwhile upstairs
Lexie wiggled out of Archie's grasp; she looked up at his face. He looked sad and slightly angry.
"What's wrong Arch?" he looked through her, seeming to be miles and miles away, she waved her hand in front of his eyes bring him back
"what?" she frowned "what's wrong" he turned away and looked back out the window
"its just that when we have a child, it won't be your first. I wanted to be the father of your first child" he closed his eyes "I feel betrayed, you never told me. We said we'd never have any secrets from each other and you kept that from me. You know everything about me, and now I feel I don't even know you" Lexie's face clouded over and tears filled her eyes, she ran from the room, wanting to get as far away from Glenbogle as possible.
Back downstairs
"Roxy, do you know your mother's name" Molly stared down at the photo hoping that the name the girl spoke wouldn't match the name in her head. Roxy reached in to her bag again, pulling out a letter, she studied it for a second "yes" Molly closed her eyes "her names Alexandra. Alexandra McTavish"
Part 4
Outside
Lexie ran out of the house and looked around the familiar grounds trying to work out where to run. She knew every inch of the land but so did Archie. He could find her just as easily as she could run. She heard her name, being called. She turned and saw Molly taping on a window. She smiled. Darn she thought. She couldn't ignore her mother-in-law. Slowly she turned on her heal and went in side and in to the room where Molly was sat. Instantly the girl sat beside Molly caught Lexie's gaze. There was something about her. The girl turned and looked at Lexie. She looked down at the photograph, and back up again. Something clicked in her brain.
"Lexie, come sit down" Molly tapped the seat next to her and Lexie obediently sat. The girl couldn't help but stare.
"Lexie, this is Roxy" she frowned slightly "but I think you already now that" Lexie looked slightly confused. Roxy frowned.
"I guess you wouldn't recognize me but don't you feel something?" Roxy stood up and ran from the room leaving the bag on the sofa. You could hear her sobbing. Molly watched as she ran out in to the grounds.
"Oh Lexie. Maybe you should see this" Molly handed Lexie the photo that Roxy had. Lexie groaned.
"You mean she's my?" Molly nodded "why didn't you tell me about her? I would have help you find her if you wanted" Lexie burst in to tears
"I was embarrassed at having a daughter young. I told Archie about her today" Molly looked at Lexie for a second "are you going to let her get away? Go after her Lex, if you don't you may never get to know her"
