James POV
Today we go to the lawyer's office for the reading of the will. I sit beside Phyllis with DeLeah in her lap, Chris beside her, Jon and Mic behind her. Jon and Mic arrived last night. They knew that Phyllis needed them, and they told me that she is still family. I appreciate them. The lawyer pressed play on the tap. Lisa appeared on the screen.
Lisa: Hello, Smiley. If you’re probably seeing this, I'm dead. By now, you probably figured out you’re adopted. Either your dad told you or you found out some other way, but you know that you'll always be my baby. Baby, I left everything thing to you. I love you baby, and I know that you are a beautiful young woman. I love you. James, watch over my baby girl. She'll need you now more than ever. To Chris, Jon, and Mic there is a thousand dollars in each of your bank accounts and trust funds. I love you all so much.

The TV turns black. Phyllis's face is red and her eyes are wet with tears. She leans her head and Chris's shoulder and just stays there.
