Kayson was in such disbelief that he kept on reading the damning sentence over and over. In fact, he googled other sources to see if this one was made up. Each one he looked at, named him as Isaiah's son. He took another step and googled Iyana's last name, just to see who her parents were. And after this, was hit with another shocking blow.

He read under the article that he previously visited about the house fire, looking at the names. All four of them named him, Iyana, Lily, and Madilyn. Madilyn was a real shocker. When he read on the article on how all four of them were killed in a housefire, he read a sentence that said

"Isaiah's children, Iyana and Kayson, were found inside of the housefire. The parents are grief stricken."

Kayson knew that Iyana was his sister, but he didn't know or perhaps remember that she had a different mother. This led him to the name of Tyler. When Kayson googled Madilyn's name, a photo of her mother, father, and brother from the time of the fire and 10 years later popped up. On the newer photo, Madilyn's parents and brother appeared to be older. They were holding a picture of Madilyn, which was another indication that the picture was recent. Kayson now knew that all of them were fully American, from America, and weren't with their real parents.

And Kayson was going to confront Abel with this news.

Even though he knew what happened to her already, Isaiah filed a missing persons report with Stephanie's family. Soon after, police put out a news bulletin throughout the radios across Cali. After giving a picture and a nice description of Stephanie, the family and Isaiah headed to their homes. While he drove them to theirs, Rebecca glanced at Isaiah, grilled him, then looked away. Isaiah scrunched his eyebrows at her, giving her a weird look.

"Is something wrong?" Isaiah asked.

Rebecca was a girl who held nothing back. She looked down at her twiddling fingers, looking back up at the windshield as rain came down on it.

"You never told me that you had a criminal record, Isaiah." Rebecca mumbled. "MULTIPLE criminal records."

Isaiah gave her a blank stare, then gave off a nonchalant look as he looked back at the road.

"I'm sorry Rebecca but that's none of your business-"

"It IS my business, especially when you're dating my damn sister!" Rebecca scowled, interrupting him. "Did you tell her about any of that?"

Isaiah didn't say anything because he knew that Stephanie never knew. As he continued his driving, Rebecca shook her head and glanced out of the window.

"How convenient is it that everyone around you suddenly disappear and is never heard from again, Isaiah?" Rebecca continued, giving him a strict look.

"Rebecca, if you're accusing me of having something to do with this shit, get to the point and say that instead of beating around the bush!" Isaiah scowled at her.

"I'm not accusing you of doing shit, I'm ASKING if you were involved!" Rebecca scowled back. "If I was responsible for stealing jeans out of homes and all of a sudden all of yours go missing, you wouldn't suspect me of doing it?"

"No, because I would trust you enough to know that you wouldn't steal from me!"

Isaiah was so agitated that he was barely focusing on the road. He had one question in particular.

"Where the hell did you get all this information from?" Isaiah snarled.

"I'm not telling." Rebecca mumbled. "But let's just say that a little birdy told me that you were a possible murder."
