Pillar had cried Theresa wasn't her child she belongs to someone else. Pillar: why did you take my little girl away from me why I've been faithful to you and my husband, I've taught my children about religion and how to be kind what did I do god she cries what did I do. She looks over at sleeping Theresa well actually Carmon and she couldn't help but cry because soon this little girl wouldn't be here she knew Augustine would take her away from here and she couldn't let that happen. She woke up Martin and told him to come to their room they needed to talk.
Martin: it's two o'clock in the morning. Pillar: I just can't let her go Martin I know she's your brother's child but please I just can't I've raised her she's mine. Martin: I know but like you said my brother has the right to know. Pillar: but if I lose her I've already lost a daughter I don't want to lose another one please Martin lets not tell anyone please. Martin nods his head okay but let's make a deal. Pillar: anything. Martin: I want to go visit my half brother and half sister. Pillar: No they'll know please Martin I beg you. Martin: I just I can't keep this from him any longer please I already told Rebecca and she went hysterical on me but he has the right to know he'll find out I kept this from him and then he surely will be even madder it's only fair Pillar. Pillar started crying and all Martin could do was hug her and comfort her. Pillar: but she's ours. Martin swallowed this was breaking his heart to. He didn't want to do it but his brother would have his head if he were to ever come back to Harmony and find out.
The next morning Pillar took her two oldest to school and the others to daycare while she went to work. Martin had called in saying he would be late. Mr. Crane was not happy but Martin insisted he would stay longer and Mr. Crane threatened that he would be fired if he wasn't in by the afternoon. Martin then called his brother.
Augustine: hello. Martin: Jose. Augustine: Marty why are you calling me shouldn't you be at work. Martin: I've had some vacation coming I was wondering if we could come visit you in the summer. Augustine: sure what's going on? Martin: look I'm sorry for the way I acted two months ago I just want to make it up to you please. Augustine: you don't have to make it up to me. Martin: okay then can we just come for a family vacation then? Augustine: sure you can are you going to bring those nieces and nephews of mine. Martin: of course we are. Augustine: good this summer right. Martin: yes this summer I have something to tell you it's about Rebecca. Augustine: what about her is she okay? Martin: yes of course she is besides depression because of her husband making her raise that devil child of his yes. Augustine: why doesn't she just call me and I could get her out me and Amelia are over just our kid Michael. Martin: that's what I have to talk to you about he gave me call Jose about Theresa. Augustine: I haven't seen her yet or the two other children how are they? Martin: good look I have to go will you be in Port Charles and will Kate be there to. Augustine: yes of course. Martin: good then that little girl of hers can play with my Theresa. Augustine: of course she could and I will get to meet your whole family again. Martin; yeah well I have to go. Augustine: is everything all right. Martin: No but I really do have to go. Augustine: okay quit working for the Cranes come live with my family and I Marty. Martin: you know I don't like handouts. Augustine: well then come work for me it would be better then working for those evil Cranes. Martin: I'll think about it and with that he hangs up before Augustine had a chance to convince some more.
Augustine knew his brother was keeping something from him every time he called he seemed distance with him. Kate: so is he coming? Augustine: this summer. Kate: he should really stop working for them Auggie you have to tell him about our family and the Cranes. Augustine: I know I will. Eric: No I will I'll tell him since I'm the oldest and I'm closet to him I will tell him you two just with his family. Augustine: if you insist Eric. Eric: I do now I have to go get Piper.
Back in Harmony at the Crane Mansion Martin was working his but off. He was worried of how his family was going to react not just his wife and their children but his brothers and sister. They'll hate him but he had to do it for Rebecca's and her daughter's safety little Carman. Jonathon was going to take Carmon away soon and he wouldn't let that happen and summer was coming soon and the children would be out of school, he just needed to beg his boss for a vacation otherwise he will quit.
