Sammie walked into my bedroom with a purpose, in fact, she always had a purpose. I was in the middle of putting on make-up to get ready for my girls’ night out with a few co-workers and already running late. “Do you have time to talk, Mom?”

“Make it quick, I have to meet Krista and Sarah at the grill in a half hour.” She plopped on the edge of my bed and stared at me through the mirror. “Samantha? What’s going on?” The more I looked at my daughter’s beautiful face, there was calm in her eyes and I credit her friendship with Brendon for that. Although, I think there was more than friendship between the two of them. A mother knows these things and I see the way Brendon’s eyes followed her and vice versa. They were smitten with one another, nothing more and certainly nothing less.

“I’ve been invited to go to Ireland with Brendon. He got the tickets before even talking to me. I suppose it’s too late to get permission.” I put down my eyeliner pencil and turned to face her, shaking my head.

“He got the tickets already to Ireland, is this kid’s parent loaded?” She shrugged at my question. “I guess you can go, so long as his parents are with you.”

“Oh, they are and they are happy to have me travel with him.” She gave me a half-smile but I sensed there was something else she needed and I resumed putting on my face.

“Your name isn’t really Melody, is it?” Cars crashed in my head as if this one question led to a multiple car pile up. I shook my head. “Mavis Byrne and you have a twin, now thought to be deceased, named Aidan?” The only thought I had was who was Brendon Finnegan, for only those from the old stomping grounds knew about us.

“Sammie, I am not trying to lessen the importance of my lineage, but we need to take a raincheck until tomorrow. Can we do that?” It seemed an acceptable answer when Sammie slid off my bed and shuffled her feet to the door.

“That is fine, Mom! I have so much to ask you -but please enjoy yourself and keep in mind - stranger danger.” I laughed when she left the room, although I was curious what she meant by stranger danger.
