-Sandi Owens, she use to do odd jobs for Brendan. Ste said as he looked up in the sealing. -Odd jobs for Brendan? I am guessing that did not includ garden work! said Amy and Ste nodded. -How is Leah and Lucas? -I'am gonna let you two talk, I'll be back later, ok? said John Paul and left in a hurry, Amy figuered it had to do with his grand plan whatever that was. -There good. They miss you! Amy said in Ste started crying. -I wanna see them Amy! Amy couldn't reply, she did not need to. Ste knew. -So, Sandi Owens and the odd jobs? Amy asked. -Right. Brendan didn 't tell me much about her. Good theif, was apparently one of those you hired to collect debts, though stuff. He said that she could be in and out from within a house in just few minuts, with pocket full of stuff to sell at once. You know, not the most expensive stuff, stuff that were still worth quite a deal and it would take a while to discover stolen. -Well. Lovely girl! Ste said nothing. -Look at this place! Remember when Brendon lived here? -Yes I do. I had a cup of tea here with him once! Telling him that you knocked Rae up!-Seams like it was a lifetime ago! -It nearly was! You have to clean up Ste! Look at the state of you! -Why was he here? Ste asked. -You mean John Paul… not quite sure. He told me it is over between him and Danny! Ste smiled. -Yes, I am sure it is, for this time around. God, it's like a zoo! People come here… everyone thinking they have some sort of magic trick to kick this habit, but you know what… there is no trick! -There is always treatmenthomes! Ste looked at Amy. -Are you serious? I have already been looked up once, I am not going through that again. -We could come and see you! Promise! Ste went quiet a while. -Thats why you are here, right? Great! An ultimatum! Or what? I'll never see them again? Ste kick hard on the table and it turned over, breaking the glass. Amy got up, backing away from him. It was exactly why she was there. The door opened again and Ste had his hands buried in his face, not even wondering who it was this time, not even when Amys respons was; -What tha hell?
That was serious, cause she did not swear that often. -Well, you really was n't kidding! Where is the little princess then? Ste knew that voice from somewhere and turned around. He found John-Paul, and his grandma… who had a suitcase with her! -You must be Amy! grandma said och went to the couch, taking a look at Ste. Amy quickly ran over towards John Paul. -What is going on? -Grandma and I need a place to stay. -So you are going to move here? John Paul nodded. -How is that gonna help? -Well, grandma can be quite the lady for her age! -How about Matthew? Amy cleverly asked. Would John Paul really deer to move his son under the same roof as Ste in this condition? -He is coming to!
-Now this is some wreck! Dear boy, when was the last time you ate? said grandma loudly, so loudly that Ste moved a cople of seats away. -Hey! Did you hear me? she asked. -Well, I think the heard you in Manchester! -Good! And yeet you couldn't answer? -I don't remember! he said, wich in it self was said.
-I want him to get treatment! Amy said to John Paul. -Really? Because if that is going to help at all, they need to look him up, wich will make him angry and then he will start all over again! -There are homes that is not like prison! -Yeah… well that's even worse! Dose it look like he has the will to quit? Amy turned towards Ste and relised that the love for the kids was not going to be enough this time. -Why are you helping him? she asked him again and John Paul did not have the chance to answer. There was a knock on the door.
