Getting to know my father
Chapter 24
Previously
Nicole: "Oh my god."
Tommy: "Nicole what is it?"
Nicole: "I was right wasn't I Kwest?"
Kwest: "What?"
Nicole: "I was right Sara is my niece."
Tommy: "WHAT?"
D: "Jude"
Jude: "Well it appears that G arranged for family to adopt Sara. I didn't know that Nicole was Tommy's sister. G made all the arrangements I only had one condition, that they didn't change her first name."
Tommy: "You mean the little girl out there is actually my daughter."
Jude: "It would appear so."
Nicole: "One thing I don't get is why you signed you're rights away Tommy?"
No response came
Kwest: "I'll take that one. Considering T didn't know about Sara he wouldn't have signed his rights away. I'll bet money that G had the papers with a whole stack T had to sign. And T didn't really read anything he signed back then."
D: "I can't believe G would do this."
Jude: "Well believe it or not it happened and it was going too exposed on LIVE TV. I could let that happen no matter how much I can't stand Tommy. No one deserves that. "
Nicole: "But why his birthday. Why not when you first started working with Tommy."
Jude: "At that stage I still had a lot going on and I had trouble processing information."
Nicole: "What kind of stuff?"
D: "It's ok Jude I'll answer that for you."
Jude: "Thanks. I really need to get some air."
D: "Well Nicole just before Jude started here she was informed of her mother's death by her step father who also revealed that Jude had siblings and if that wasn't enough she was then informed by letter that I was her father. Then I throw her with Tommy. I'm personally amazed that she managed to keep it all together.
Nicole: "Oh"
Kwest: "I think I'll go make sure Jude's ok."
D: "T man are you ok?"
Tommy: "How can I be ok I just discovered that Jude's my ex wife and that my niece is in fact my daughter. How do you think I am?"
Nicole: "I hate to bring this up but what's going to happen with Sara?"
D: "I guess I'll get my lawyers to look into it and don't worry it will be handled with care because we are dealing with a little girl."
Nicole: "Will I loose my little girl?"
Tommy: "Look Nicole I don't know what's going to happen but no matter what you will be apart of Sara's life."
Outside with Jude
Jude's Thoughts: I can't believe he just sat there and said nothing, did he even hear me. For crying out loud I told him that the girl he thought was his niece is actually his daughter and he did nothing.
Kwest: "Jude are you ok?"
Jude: "Huh?"
Kwest: "Are you ok?"
Jude: "I'm not really sure."
Kwest: "What do you mean?"
Jude: "I mean I just told D I'm his daughter and then I tell Tommy he has a daughter. How do you think I am? Ouch
Kwest: "What's wrong Jude?"
Jude: "I ouch don't ouch know."
Kwest: "Hold on I'll get some help."
By the time Kwest came with help Jude was on the ground screaming in pain. It took seeing Jude like this for Tommy to snap out of the daze he's been in and take control.
D was all ready on his cell calling 911
Tommy: "D did you call the ambulance?"
D: "Yeah but they won't be here for another 15 minutes.
Tommy: "That's not good enough. Kwest help me get Jude to my car."
Nicole: "What are you doing?"
Tommy: "I'm getting her to the hospital. Something's wrong with the baby I can fell it. Now out my way.
At the hospital
… "Miss Harrison. What is it with you and hospitals?"
Kwest: "Hey Dr Carter. What's up?"
Dr Carter: "No much but it seems someone wanted to make an early appearance."
Tommy: "Everything's ok. I mean with Jude and the baby?"
Dr Carter: "Yes Mr. Quincy, Miss Harrison and the baby are fine. But has Miss Harrison been under any pressure or stress lately?"
D: "I guess she has but tell me Doc is my little girl gonna be ok?"
Dr Carter: "Miss Harrison is fine but it seems as if all the stress she's being under made her go into early labor. But we managed to stop it but I would like to keep Miss Harrison here over night so we can make sure the labor has stopped."
Jude: "Hey Doc do I get a say in this?"
Tommy: "No you don't Jude. You gave us quite a scare, so you will listen and do as the doctor says."
Jude: "Yes dad. I promise I'll be a good little girl."
Tommy: "Jude?"
Jude: "What?"
Tommy: "You know what."
Jude: "Don't start Tommy I really don't need it."
Dr Carter: "Ok well Miss Harrison. I'll check on you later."
D: "Jude you gave us quite a scare."
Jude: "I'm sorry D. I guess the last couple of weeks have been rough and I guess it got the better of me."
D: "Yeah well you're going to be taking it easy from now on."
Jude: "So does that mean I don't have to do the reunion show?"
D: "No it means you still have to do the show. It just means that there's no surprises."
Jude: "Hey D while were here do you think we could do the DNA test?"
D: I don't think that's such a good idea Jude."
Jude: "Come on I want to know one way or the other."
Tommy: "How about we speak to the Doctor and see what he says?"
D: "Ok that sounds like a good idea. I'll see if I can track the Doctor down."
Kwest: "Ah yeah well I should get back to the studio. You know how SME can get. Glad you're feeling better Jude. Let us know if you need anything."
After Kwest and D left the room the silence in the air was killing Jude, she wished that Tommy would day something.
Jude: "Hey Tommy you still there?"
Tommy: "Huh. Sorry what did you say."
Jude: "I was wondering if everything is alright."
Tommy looked at Jude as if to say you've got to be kidding me tight but he just said that he was ok but Jude knew better.
Jude: "Quincy tell me what's going on in that head of yours."
Tommy: "You really don't want to know."
Jude: "If I didn't want to know I wouldn't have asked."
Tommy: "Trust me Jude you don't want to know ok. So drop it already."
Jude: "Typical just when things get hard or complicated you just shut down and won't let anyone in."
Tommy: "Damn it Liz just shut up for once in your life."
With that Tommy stormed out leaving a very confused Jude behind.
4 Hours later
Dr. Carter: "Miss Harrison I'm glad to say that we have managed to stop you from going into labor but I really need you to take it easy.
Jude: "Doc just tell me when I can leave."
Dr. Carter: "Where's Mr. Quincy, Kwest and Mr. Mills?"
Jude: "They had to get back to work, now can you answer my question?"
Dr. Carter: "Miss Harrison I already told you it would be tomorrow morning if everything was ok. So how about you get some sleep and I'll inform Mr. Quincy."
Jude: "Doc do you think you could call Mr. Mills instead."
Dr. Carter: "Miss Harrison you know I can't do that. I need to contact you're next of kin, which is you're husband Mr. Quincy.
Jude just looked at the doc as if he was crazy
Jude: "Doc I'm not married to Mr. Quincy"
Dr. Carter: "Well I beg to differ it says so right here in your file."
Jude: "I don't care what it says. I am NOT or HAVE EVER been married to Mr. Quincy."
… "Now now Jude we both know that's not true."
Jude: "Georgia?"
Georgia: "Yeah it's me I heard about what happened."
Jude: "How?"
Georgia: "D. He tells me I need to stay away from his little girl."
Jude: "He WHAT?"
Dr. Carter: "I hate to interrupt but Miss Harrison I need you to stay calm."
Jude: "Yeah well see to it that she stays away from me."
Georgia: "Ok Jude I can take a hint but I'll see you at the reunion."
Jude: "Do you think you could call Mr. Mills now."
Dr. Carter: "Ok I'll do it but this never happened if anyone asks ok."
Jude: "Ok."
Dr. Carter: "Hello is this Mr. Mills?"
D: "Yes this is he."
Dr. Carter: "Mr. Mills this is Miss Harrison's Doctor."
D: "Is everything alright?"
Dr. Carter: "Yes it is. She wanted me to call and let you know that she is going to be discharged and would appreciate it if you could pick her up."
D: "Sure Doc but shouldn't it be her next of kin?"
Dr. Carter: "Yes it should be but she doesn't want Mr. Quincy to know at this stage."
D: "Doc did you say Mr. Quincy was Jude's next of kin?"
Dr. Carter: "Yes that's what her file says."
D: "But why?"
Dr. Carter: "Ah I would guess it's cos he's her husband."
D: "Ok Doc let her know I'll be there."
Dr. Carter: "Ok then I'll see you when you get here. Bye."
D: "Bye."
D's Thoughts: Quincy Jude's husband, but I thought they used his real surname. But I do remember them saying they got divorced. Something is going on, I need to get to the bottom of this. Jude doesn't need this.
D pulled out his rollerdex and found just the person he needed.
D: "Hello this is Mad Max I need you to look into something for me."
… "Ok give me the details."
D: "Well it would appear that a certain ex boybander is married to my little song bird. Could you get me the details of this marriage and anything in regards to it."
…"Ok what's the time frame?"
D: "A.S.A.P. I'll pay you double. I just need that information."
… "This little song bird must be pretty important if you're willing to pay double."
D: "Look that's no concern of yours. Just get me the information."
…….. Thought's: Wow Jude really means a lot to D. I wonder why. I guess that will be my next job after I gather the information on Quincy and Jude. I bet D would pay triple just to keep quite once I discover the secret. I bet it's something he doesn't want the media to know, but what could it be. Come on man concentrate on the job at hand. Quincy's marriage.
15 minutes later D strolled into the hospital looking for Jude, when he found her she was sound asleep and looked like an Angel. He didn't have the heart to wake her, so he went in search of her Doctor.
D: "Excuse me could you tell me where I'd find"
Dr. Carter: "Mr. Mills?"
D: "Yes."
Dr. Carter: "It's good to see you again if you'd like to come with me we'll discuss these matters in private."
D looked at the Doctor confused as to what had happened. Before D could ask the Doctor just said that there's being media here all day waiting to find out why the head of G Major and his producers were at the hospital.
D: "Oh. Do they know what happened?"
Dr. Carter: "I don't know but when I was informing Miss Harrison of her next of kin some lady showed up. I believe Miss Harrison called her Georgia."
D: "What did she want?"
Dr. Carter: "No idea Miss Harrison wanted her gone. So she left and I informed the staff that anyone wanting to see Miss Harrison must see me first."
D: "Thanks Doc for looking out my girl. Now on to the matter we discussed earlier."
Dr. Carter: "What about it?"
D: "Can we so the test?"
Dr. Carter: "Yes I just need a sample from you and I can run the test. The results will be ready in a couple of weeks."
D: "Is there any way we can get the results quicker?"
Dr. Carter: "Leave it with me Mr. Mills I'll see what I can arrange."
D: "Ok thanks. Now I'm gonna see my little girl."
