A Sequel to 'Strong Enough' based on the alternate ending of that story

Chapter 15

"It is buddy" Adam smiled at his son's enthusiasm, it was amazing at how he had bounced back.

Kim turned the television off, "Mommy, I was watching that" Dani pouted.

Kim pushed hair away from Dani's eyes, "I know, but we need to talk about something, it's kind of big"

She watched as Adam's eyes grew as big as saucers, "Did they find a match?"

"Not yet pal, they're working on it though. Any day we will get the call I know it" he grabbed his son's foot, "this is good news though"

Jeremiah sat at the table, he was shocked when they had collected him telling him he had a visitor.

Bob was already seated when Jeremiah walked in and took the seat opposite him.

"Who are you?" Jeremiah asked.

"My name is Bob Ruzek, you raped my daughter in law eight years ago" he seethed, he'd promised himself he wouldn't let his emotions over take him. Now, sitting in front of the man who had hurt Kim it was almost impossible.

Jeremiah laughed, "Oh, that bitch. Is this about the little brat?" He asked, "because I already told the last guy that I wasn't doing it. It's not my problem"

Bob shook his head, pulling a picture from his pocket and sliding it towards Jeremiah, "Look at him! Go on, take a good long look!"

"This my boy?" he studied the picture.

Bob stood and leaned across the table, "He's my boy's boy! Not yours, but you may be the one who can save his life" he spit. He knew Adam would be furious with him, they didn't want Miller knowing anything about little Adam.

He needed to do something though, and he hoped if Miller knew something about Adam that maybe it would change his mind.

Jeremiah laughed, he held the picture up "I. Don't. Give. A. Fuck." He said angrily as he tore the picture in two, throwing it across the table.

"You're a monster do you know that?" Bob said through clenched teeth, spittle forming at the corner of his mouth. He gathered the torn picture glancing down at it, "I hope you fucking die!"

Jeremiah ran his hand through his greasy hair, "I bet you do, wonder who will go first? I bet it'll be that brat"

Bob lunged at him, the guards quickly intervening.

"Fuck off!" Jeremiah screamed as the guards removed him from the small room.

Bob sat for a minute overcome by his emotions, he knew Josh was right. He never should have come here.

"So, you have a mom and a dad?" Dani asked from her position in Adam's lap, "how come we never saw them? We see Poppy all of the time" her hands animated as she spoke.

Kim raised an eyebrow, "Sometimes grown ups don't always make the best choices, and I didn't but I am now"

Dani nodded, "Daddy does that a lot, doesn't he?" She turned to look at her father.

"What?" He asked.

"Bad choices. You make them lots of times at work" Dani told him obviously upset with his cluelessness "It's why you get hurt so much, Mommy said its because you got a complex" she shook her head, "whatever that means"

Adam laughed, "That true?" He winked at Kim, "what kind of complex?"

Kim blushed, "Dani you are too much" she tickled Dani's stomach.

"Don't ignore the question Mrs.Ruzek" Adam teased.

Kim huffed, "Fine. A hero complex" she laughed.

"It's not a complex of its factual you know" Adam corrected her.

Little Adam rolled over, "Hey, you sleep well?" Kim asked, he had crashed practically mid sentence just shortly after Dani and Adam arrived.

"I guess, you guys are loud" he whispered.

They heard a knock on the door, "I'll get it!" Dani jumped down from Adam's lap and ran to the door, "hello?"

Kenneth smiled from behind the bags of gifts they had, "You must be Danielle" he said forgetting Kim's advice.

Dani stomped her foot, "I'm Dani!" She looked them up and down, "Who are you?"

Stella laughed, "My word! It's like stepping back in time." Laughing at how much the little girl reminded her of Kim as a child.

Kim went to the door, "Dani, don't be rude" she hugged her parents, "This is your grandma and grandpa, my mom and dad"

"Morning" Adam greeted them, "You didn't need to bring gifts"

"Of course we did" Stella told him as she handed Dani her gifts, "I hope you like them sweetie"

Dani took them, "Thanks grandma!"

They went to little Adam's bed, Stella could feel her heart stop and her vision blurry as tears filled her eyes, she brought her hand to her mouth. She had prepared herself. At least she thought she had anyway, but this was too much.

"Hi, Adam" she said softly Kenneth at her side.

Adam grinned, "Hi, Grandpa, do you want a haircut? I'm really good. I did my dad, Poppy, Cannon, and Cory" he counted on his fingers.

"Son, ease up on Grandpa" Adam told him.

Kenneth laughed, "I'm in. I could use a trim"

Kim wrapped her arm around her dad's waist, "Just so you know he takes it all off, he scalped Adam. It's only just now started to grow back" she winked at her husband.

Kenneth was about to speak when Dr.Miller entered the room.

Dr.Miller smiled at the group, "I have some news" he told them, "but I have to tell you something first"
