Sally ended back at Myrtle's Boarding House and sat on the sofa in the lounge.

" Sally dear," Myrtle said coming in, " Any luck finding a place?"

Sally just looked at the older gal, " Not yet, Ms. Fargate," Sally said, " But I will, even though this place is very comfortable and nice."

" That's nice to hear," Myrtle said," Thank you my dear."

" How long can I stay here?" Sally asked.

" As long as you like," Myrtle said.

" Thank you," Sally said, " But I am sure I'll find something soon."

Night came and Sally was up in her room, thinking of the day she had and of JR Chandler.

The next morning, Sally just ended up at BJ's for breakfast and ran into Babe.

" Sally," Babe said.

" Hey," Sally said, " May I join you?"

" Sure," Babe said, " I'd like the company."

" Me too," Sally said sitting down, " It's not easy being new in town."

" I know what you mean," Babe said looking at the menu, " It was like that for me a few years ago."

" How did you meet JR?" Sally asked.

" Long story," Babe said, " He's the one who brought me here. I met him in California."

" Oh," Sally said, " Little A is so adorable."

" Yeah, Little A is great," Babe said smiling, but then her smile faded.

" What's wrong?" Sally asked.

" I lost a child," Babe lied, " It still hurts."

" I'm sorry to hear that," Sally said, " That's terrible. Well there's always another time."

Babe didn't want to tell Sally the turth yet, that Little Adam was also her son, she wouldn't believe it.

Sally later ended up in the park and ran into JR and Little A.

" Hi," Sally said coming up.

" Hey," JR said, " Sally right?"

" JR," Sally said sitting down, " Hey little guy."

" Hi," Little A mumbled.

" He's starting to talk," JR said, " He mumbles, but he's getting there."

Sally just smiled and stared at JR.

" Did you have any luck finding a place?" JR asked.

" It's going slow," Sally said, " Myrtle said I can stay at the boarding house for as long as I like, but I have to find something."

" Maybe I can help," JR said," I know some connections."

" Hi," Little A said again grabbing Sally's hand.

" How adorable can this little guy get?" Sally asked, " Where's his mother?"

JR didn't say a word, Pine Valley was a small town and sooner or later Sally was going to run into Babe.

" She's not here right now," JR lied, " His mother and I are divorced. It's a long story."

" Okay," Sally said, " I understand. Well I have to go, I have a job interview. I may end up being a teacher's aide."

" Well good luck," JR said.

" Thanks," Sally said, " Bye Little A."

Little A waved.

Sally smiled again and then left. JR smiled too, one of these days he would tell Sally about Babe, but for now it was his secret.
