"Amanda?" Kim called when she saw that the little girl wasn't in her room. "Amanda? Hey, time for bed." She frowned when no one answered. She walked down the hall, poking her head into the boys' room. Joey and Johnny were in bed. She continued her walk till she found Amanda in the master bedroom looking at the pictures on her dresser. "Amanda?"

She turned around. "Hi."

"Hi. What are you doing?" Kim walked over to her and looked at the pictures she'd been looking at.

"I was looking at the pictures," Amanda admitted shyly

"Yeah?" Kim nodded. "You know, maybe we should get some pictures of you taken so I can show everyone what a beautiful daughter I have."

Amanda smiled before she looked back at the pictures. "Who's that?" She pointed to a picture.

"Which one? Him?" Kim said pointing to Bobby.

Amanda nodded, "He's very handsome."

Kim smiled, "Yes he is. That is Bobby. He was a very good friend of mine for a long time."

"Can I meet him?"

"No. See, he's in heaven."

"Like my mom?"

"Right."

"How did he die? Did he have cancer?"

"Where did you learn about cancer?" Kim raised an eyebrow.

"Books at Grandma Catherine's."

"Oh. Well, no, he didn't have cancer. Someone hurt him very badly and he died."

"Like my mom?"

"Yeah, kind of," Kim nodded. "See that picture?"

"Yeah."

"That was taken at the firehouse where I work. Across the street is the police station where Bosco works." Kim looked at Amanda. "You don't have school tomorrow right? You and Joey are off."

"Uh-huh," Amanda nodded. "We're going to Grandma Catherine's."

"Well, before you go there, how would you like to see where Bosco and I work? You can meet some of the people we work with too."

"Really?" Amanda looked excited.

"Yeah. Grandma can pick you up after we give you the grand tour of the firehouse and the station." Kim smiled, "Would you like that?"

"Yes I would."

"Okay. Then that is what we're going to do tomorrow. But now, it's time for all people under the age of 12 to get into bed."

"Okay," Amanda and Kim walked out of the room and down to Amanda's bedroom. Amanda snuggled under her covers.

"Do you want me to stay with you?" Kim asked as she handed Amanda her bunny.

Amanda shook her head.

"Are you sure?"

Amanda nodded.

"Okay. If you change your mind, I am right down the hall, okay?"

"Okay," Amanda smiled.

"Night," Kim said. She kissed the top of Amanda's head and then left the room.
