Chapter 2 Morning has broken

Mark woke up with the sun shining on his face. He sat up on his bed, recalling last night's events.

Flashback:

"My child, how did you betray your daughter, in what way?"

"You see father, when my wife gave birth to her, she died, I couldn't accept the fact that my wife died. When they put the infant in my arms, she had my eyes and my pale color. She reminded me so much of myself, my stupidness. I gave her to my sister, with guilt in my heart"

"I'm sorry to hear your wife died, but the truth hurts, reality hurts. Your wife accomplished something that would rarely happen in people. She died to give life to your daughter. She's watching you two even you are separated from your daughter. For your penance, say three our father's and three hail mary's"

End of Flashback.

He felt the cold water splash up his face, he felt refreshed and ready. The truth hurts, point made, and discussed. He already accepted the death of Sarah, but his daughter was giving him guilt. He felt like it was his fault, he blamed himself for anything. He made his way downstairs to find the guys engrossed in their conversation; they didn't bother to say hi. He went to the coffee pot and made himself some coffee.

"The guys last night were great. They're amazing! Could they have a record deal or something?"

Randy said as he ate toast.

"They were awesome, I really loved their vocalist. She's a natural"

Shawn said.

"Speaking of which, what was her name again?"

Adam asked.

"That girl? It started with a B or something?"

Christian said.

"Captain knucklehead, her name's Billie and she rocks"

Jericho said. Mark's eyes widened and spat out his coffee. He turned around to find everyone staring at him.

"Mark, are you okay?"

Dave asked, Mark looked at Jericho and said

"Did you say her name was Billie?"

Jericho nodded nervously.

"What's the matter Mark?"

Ric asked him. Mark ran to his room, leaving the others in shock. Shelton walked in the room clad in his track pants, he yawned and suddenly looked at his companions and asked

"Did I just miss something here?"

Randy looked at him and said

"You just did"

"What's wrong with him?"

Dave asked.

"Dunno, it's a bit weird, I mean, he reacted to the word Billie"

Jericho said and drank up his coffee. Up in his room, Mark couldn't believe what he just heard.

"Her name's Billie and she rocks"

Was repeating in his mind, Billie his daughter? But he wasn't quite sure, they are a lot of Billies out there. He walked to the wall of photographs hoping to find answers.

"Billie? Are you the one they were talking about? I'll be seeing you soon"

He whispered, a tear rolled down his cheek and dropped to the floor, absorbing a part of his misery.

Billie sat by the window looking out to the street. She finished eating breakfast and received numerous calls from Kyle, Frankie and Jason. She felt so down, she needed her dad, who was at work for the day. The laughter of kids meant that her mother's day care started already. She picked up her guitar and plucked a tune, More than Words, just to pass the time. After putting down the guitar she went to her bedside table and opened up a drawer. Wrapped in velvet cloth, there rested a locket. Opening it, there was a picture of her in the other side and the other one blank. She knew that somebody was there before, but the picture was taken out. Engraved underneath the blank side was the name M.C. She always wondered what M.C. stood for. She was sure that on her side was S.C, her mother told her that she got her third name there, Billie Jean Sarah. She often asked her mother what M.C. stood for and she figured out a meaning for it since her mother never told her. Merciless competitor, her parents knew what could happen if she joined competition. She showed no mercy, putting her body, soul and will to the sport that she loved the most

"Billie! You've got company!"

Her mother called, waking her from her stupor. She put back the locket and shut the drawer. She ran down the stairs to find Kyle standing there with a grin plastered on his face.

"Well, this an unexpected surprise"

Billie said and smiled.

"I guess, I wanted to check you out. You know, this is not your usual self, you're well, sad."

Kyle replied.

"So what do you have in mind?"

"How about ice cream? Then the whole day together?"

"Us two?"

"Yeah, just the two of us"

"Well I'll be darned Kyle Jones, what is this?"

"It's not a date, it's a bonding day"

"Yeah right"

"I'm not joking"

"Fine, I'll just get rollerblades"

"No way, we're riding today"

"Riding? What do you… oh man! You got the Harley?"

"Yeap! Just did!"

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"Well I just told you, like right now"

"You are so cool! When did you get it anyway?"

"Found my dad doing something and he unveiled it and he told me it was mine"

"I'll just go tell my mom"

"Sure"

Billie went inside the kitchen to find her mom feeding the kids and she asked

"Mom, I'll be out for the whole day, Kyle's treating me, I think because he just got his Harley"

"Sure, be back at 7 or 8 okay?"

"Sure, will do"

She kissed her mother on the cheek and grabbed her jacket on the couch and the kids chorused

"Bye Billie!"

"Bye guys"

She replied, she went out the door to see Kyle already wearing his helmet.

"I guess you're really excited"

She said and chuckled.

"Nah, it isn't obvious, hop on, here's the helmet"

He replied and revved up and they were off.

"So guys, I'm really curious, has anybody been into Mark's room?"

Ric asked the others, Mark still hasn't come down from his room. Each one of them shook their head except for Dave.

"I've been in there"

He said, everyone looked at him and Ric asked

"So what does it look like?"

"well, picture frames, posters, tv, cds, cd rack with dvds and everything, but there's one thing that bothers me..."

"what?"

"well there's this part of the room that's covered with a black curtain I guess.."

"how come? You asked him about that?"

"I tried to, but he changed the topic."

"Well, we gotta figure that out already, it's either one of us go to look at it or we all send him out to buy something…. And we…"

Ric grinned a grin when he came up with something. Everyone looked at him and smiled to, they all understood it. Well, it looks like that they have a plan brewing up courtesy of Ric.
