"Randy please no."
"I'm sorry Stephanie, I have to."
"Think about what you're saying."
"It's all I think about." "We both pretty much know she's mine anyway." "I just need to know for sure."
"She's not yours."
"I know you feel it to, you just don't want to admit it."
"No, she's not yours."
"Fine, I'm gonna tell Paul everything."
"Don't do that." "Let's not hurt Paul and Samantha if we don't have to." "To put you at ease we'll do a DNA test." "I'll make arrangements for it."
"Ok."
"Why do you have to to do this?"
"Wouldn't you want to know if you were me?"
"We have to go."
Three days later Stephanie was at a DNA center in Connecticut waiting on Randy. He came in the door and went over to Stephanie and Murphy.
"Hi." He said.
"Hi." "It'll be a few minutes."
"That's ok." "Hi Murphy." He said happily looking at. "How are you today?" She smiled at him. "Aw, are you happy to see me?" "I see you're getting another tooth."
Five minutes later they were called back and the DNA test was administered. It would be three days until the results.
Stephanie and Randy were outside of Stephanie's car. She just loaded Murphy into the car.
"What do you want out of this?" Stephanie asked.
"The rights and privileges of every other father."
Any requests?
