Olivia didn't move back home until her dad was released from the hospital. The girls took her home to collect a bag of clothes and her books and any other little thing she would need for a week away from home. Mary objected of course and demanded to know who those girls were and how come they lived all on their own when they were barely older than Olivia was.
"Friends Mary. They're friends and I don't want to be here without dad."
The look on Mary's face when her daughter called her Mary instead of mum, as she had always done before and topped it by still calling her father dad. It looked like someone had slapped her hard across the face but eventually she resigned and nodded.
"Call me every day and let me know how you are."
Olivia promised and that was the last Mary saw of her daughter until they met at the hospital when Liam was released.
The girls, including Olivia, went to visit him after school every day, and even Billie tagged along once or twice. She was still a bit distant towards him but she was also rather apologetic for it. She did however take him up on his offer of not having to have sex with him without being thrown out.
"I can work and help that way," she said and quickly added that she meant getting a part time job after school, like delivering groceries or something like that.
Neither Chloë not Patty mentioned the offer.
It was however becoming obvious even to the inattentive observer that there was something on Chloë's mind that she didn't really know how to bring up. She had asked to be alone with him a few times but in the end she didn't say anything to him. Perhaps she should tell Olivia, who was more than curious about the secret Patty had told Chloë after that first visit after her dad was awake, what she suspected first, just to see how she would react to the possibility that they were actually sisters for real.
The night before Liam was to be released Chloë took Olivia up to the roof, just the two of them. It was a warm evening, summer was on it's way and with it so was Olivia's birthday.
"There is something we need to talk about," she said as she lit a cigarette and leaned up against the wall surrounding the roof.
She then explained what Patty had told her about his once secret girlfriend.
"Thing is, Tammy Lynn was my mum's name. She ... ummm ... disappeared when I was seven. They still haven't found her and I doubt anyone ever will."
She took a deep drag on the cigarette without looking at Olivia. Instead she stared off into the distance, waiting for Olivia to say something, anything.

Tammy Lynn Turner had grown up poor, in a run down neighbourhood bordering on the Sunfield Trailer Park. She had been good at school and managed to get into a community college where she learned secretarial skills and at the age of 18 she got an internship at a large firm that bought and sold something she wasn't entirely sure what it was, just that it was a lot of money and big deals.
Three weeks into her internship she met Liam and fell head over heels in love with him. He was married though and at first he rejected her advanced but something changed one evening after she had joined some of her colleagues for a beer after work. he approached her that evening and they had sex in the bathroom at the bar they'd been drinking at which really suggested that he never meant for it to be more than that, a one night stand, but things developed into a secret relationship and he often spent a few hours after work at her apartment over the net few months, 64 days to be precise but who's counting.
The first day he didn't follow her home after work was the day she confirmed she was pregnant but since he had told her it had to be over that very afternoon she chose not to tell him about it and for a brief moment considered an abortion.
That same night she met Jimmy, a guy from the trailer park just south of where she had grown up and two months later they were married and she had moved in with him and his two year old son.
She gave birth to a baby girl in September that same year and lucky for her Jimmy wasn't all that good at math and actually thought the child was his.
Her life at the trailer park took her away from the internship and any hopes she had had about a better life. She became a kept woman, serving a man who made most of his money by intimidating the poor unfortunate souls who owed money to the wrong people and who was in and out of jail over the next seven years.
She vanished off the face of the earth two days after Jimmy was released from serving a one year sentence for aggravated assault. She was never seen again and the investigation into her disappearance was soon dropped.
