Hello all! Another chapter, hope you like. Sorry for the long wait. :(

Landon just starred at Cassie for awhile. It was hard to believe he had a sister, but then again it wasn't hard to believe his father had done a thing like this to his mother. Thankfully, the man had seemed to change.

"I think I'm going to call mom," Landon walked to the kitchen leaving Jamie with Cassie.

"Where have you been staying Cassie?" asked Jamie.

"Well, I do have my own car and I've been sleeping in there for about a week"

"Well now that you're here you can set yourself up in our guest room." Jamie warmly smiled.

"Oh are you sure? I don't want to barge into your lives. I just wanted to find out who my real relatives were"

"I'm not going to let a sweet girl like you live in a car. We're family and it's our job to take care of you."

A tear trickled down from Cassie's face. "You are so kind, Mrs. Carter"

"Jamie, call me Jamie! We're sisters now!" Jamie laughed and hugged Cassie.

Meanwhile in the kitchen Landon was contemplating about calling his mother. He slowly dialed her number.

"Hello?"

"Hey mama, it's Landon."

"Hey Landon, how are things with my girls?"

"Oh they're great. I have a question about dad though"

"Shoot"

"Did he ever" Landon took a breath and finished the sentence, "Have an affair?"

The other line was silent and she took a breath.

"When you were very young, about 3 years old, your father had an affair with a lady at his office."

"What happened? How did you find out?"

"She came to me once. She was about 5 months pregnant and she told me everything. She apologized and told me she was leaving town, and she did. The last I heard from her was after the child was born. The woman had died 3 months after giving birth in a car accident"

Landon's mother sniffled, "I have forgiven you father, for all things that he did. Why do you want to know though? I thought you two were getting along"

"Oh we are, I guess. This girl, Cassie, showed up at our door and claims that she is the child that you were talking about."

My mother gasped, "We thought she had died in the car accident as well."

"Cassie came here with her birth certificate and she has some of Dad in her"

"You should probably tell your father"

"And say what? Here dad, here's another child that you abandoned."

"Give your father a break. He didn't even know she was alive"

"How can you be so calm about this momma?"

"The Lord has given me great healing and I'm not going to waste it by getting upset with your father anymore"

Landon sighed wishing he could completely forgive his father as well.

"Tell you father Landon. Tell him"

Landon sighed and nodded. "I'll talk to you later momma. Jamie wants help with the twins first birthday"

"Okay Landon, I love you"

"Love you too" and he put the receiver down.

He went back into the living room as he heard laughter.

"Oh Landon, I was just telling Cassie about when Lola first discovered her love for smashed peas" smiled Jamie.

Landon laughed, "She does love her peas."

Landon looked at his sister and thought maybe just maybe it could be a very good thing she came into their lives.
