Jake sits back down in his chair across from Sam and says "That's ridiculous, Sam! What do you mean you're responsible?"
"I'm the reason Olivia went into labor early. I confronted her about the truth at the Nurses Ball and then my parents walked up and my dad asked what was going on and I just couldn't lie to him again. He asked me flat out if the baby was his and I told him the truth. Olivia started to get upset and it caused her to go into labor. She gave birth in the lobby of the Metro Court." Sam finishes. Neither one of them see Elizabeth getting more and more frustrated by Jake's concern over Sam.
"After she gave birth, Patrick could tell that something was wrong with the baby so they were rushed to the hospital. I just found out this morning that the baby didn't make it."
"Sam, I am so sorry that this happened to you and your family but this is not your fault." Jake says as her reaches out for her hand.
"Well, actually, it kind of is." Jake looks up at Elizabeth, completely shocked by what she just said.
Nikolas has just finished having a talk with Spencer about his insecurities about his face. The kid drives him absolutely crazy sometimes but he loves his so much. He thinks back to when he was first born and how he was kept away from him for months. Every time he thinks about it, it reaffirms his hate for Jax. He sits down on his couch and thinks about the fact that he is doing the exact same thing to Sam and Sonny. While he may not care that much for Sonny, Nikolas knows the feeling of having a child kept from you. But it is the fact that he is keeping Lila from Sam and Jason that breaks his heart. Everyone, including Sonny, knew Jason was going to be Lila's dad. While Nikolas knows Sonny would love Lila, he wouldn't have been the one that was there for her at all times like Jason and Sam would be. He thinks back to the day that he officially met his cousins' daughter.
*Flashback*
Nikolas can't seem to take his eyes away from the young girl by the window. "Lila, come here," Silvia demands. "There is someone I want you to meet."
Lila stands up after marking the place in her book and setting it down. She walks over to her guardian. "Lila, this is an old friend of mine Nikolas Cassadine. Nikolas, this is Lila, my ward."
Lila puts her hand out for Nikolas to shake it. "It's nice to meet you, Mr. Cassadine." She says in a sweet voice.
"It's very nice to finally meet you too Lila." Nikolas says as he shakes her small hand gently. He notices just how much she looks like her mother. Yes she has fathers smile but the rest is all Sam. Right down to how tiny she was. She probably was two inches shorter than Sam.
"You may return to you reading, Lila." Silvia says. Lila nods to Nikolas and give him a small smile that doesn't quite reach her eyes. While she may not outright show it, she is not a happy child, Nikolas could tell.
He turns to Silvia and asks in a whisper "Does she know anything about her parents?"
"No," Silvia says firmly. "Has she ever asked about them?" "Once. She asked about them once. I told her what Mrs. Cassadine told me to tell her should she ever seek information about her parents and then told her to never speak of them again." She says coldly.
"And what did my grandmother want you to tell her about her parents?" Nikolas asked, almost afraid of the answer.
"That her parents never wanted her. She was nothing more than a mistake they wanted rid of."
*End Flashback*
At General Hospital, in room 317, medical equipment is the only thing that can be heard. The young woman lying in the hospital bed is only being kept alive by the machines. Epiphany comes in to see if there is any change in her. She looks down at the woman and shakes her head. "You may not have made the best decisions in life, but you surely didn't deserve this." she says softly. She checks what she needs to and then leaves the room. As the door shuts, the heart monitor starts to pick up more and more. Followed by the young woman's eyes popping open.
