"So what the hell is all that paperwork and observing you did then?" Bette said gritting her teeth in anger.

"You only needed to sign the acceptance of guardianship forms, everything else was just to take care of Christian," Patty admitted.

"What you don’t think we would have taken care of him?" Bette snapped, "oh trust me Patty I will make sure you lose your license over this."

"I’m expecting this, this was all my idea anyways."

"What!?"

"I wanted to just walk back into Tina’s life," Mary said, "but Patty said that wouldn’t be good. She convinced Christian to participate even though he didn’t want to."

"So you really think coming back into Tina’s life is gonna be productive for her?" Bette challenged taking a deep breath to control her anger.

"Look, I know neither one of us got closure from each other or from the death of our brother," Mary said, "even if she never forgives me at least she’ll get closure."

Bette nodded slowly and said, "alright I’ll talk to Tina, but I won’t guarantee that she’ll even want to see you."

"Let her make the decision I will understand either way," Mary said, "but please don’t throw my son out. He’s an innocent bystander in all of this. He was locked up for 14 years of his life, he doesn’t understand."

"In other words you manipulated him," Bette said scoffing, "if Tina decides to let you rot in hell, you better be ready for child abuse charges! And you Patty, either way this goes, say goodbye to your license."

As Bette stood up angrily the doors of the restaurant flew open and two masked men ran in. One of them had a machine gun and the other had a large brown sack.

"Everybody down on the floor this is a hold up!" He yelled shooting a few shots from his machine gun up into the ceiling.

A collective yell rang around the restaurant and everyone dropped to the floor including Bette who instantly dropped to her stomach and laid completely still. Patty had pushed Mary onto the floor beside Bette and she laid herself next to her.

They all laid completely still and quiet as the two masked men scoured the restaurant and started robbing everything of value from everyone.
