Chapter 3

Sonny pulled Michael into the kitchen.

"Michael, I know you probably aren't but I need to ask. Are you using her to make us angry." Sonny asked. He already knew the answer. He could see the way they were looking at each other during supper.

"Dad, I know you don't like her father, but Jody's nothing like him. And I'm not using her. I like her. You've always taught me and Morgan not to use people." Michael said.

"Here's what were going to do. I know you two are going to still see each other if we tell you not to so you can see her. But when you're around Manny, be careful." Sonny said as Carly and Jason came in the room.

"Sonny, Jason and I have been talking. We think we should invite Manny over here to talk. After all, Michael is going out with his daughter. We should see if he's ok with it." Carly said. Jason gave Sonny a look.

"Michael, lets go and talk to Jody." Carly said as they left.

"Sonny, have you thought that Manny might be using Jody to spy on us?" Jason asked.

"I don't think so. I saw the way they were looking at each other. Jody doesn't seem like she's hiding something." Sonny said as Sam came in.

"Jody's called Manny. He's coming over now. I though I would take Morgan, Lila and Danny out just in case it gets out of hand." Sam said as Jason gave her a hug.

"You're right. Michael and Jody can handle it but the younger ones shouldn't be around." Sonny said as Jason gave her is credit card. Sam squealed excitedly and ran out with the three younger ones behind her.
