    "I'm here on my honeymoon. This is my wife Camila." Shawn said still in shock. Fernanda's mom extended her hand out to Camila who shook it and smiled. The old man was looking at Shawn like he wanted to kill him but her just stood there, looking at the young couple.

    "Nice to meet you Camila, Shawn." The old man said with a stern face. Shawn had the same look and all Camila could think was. 'Well this is awkward' and 'I want a piece of that cake'.

    "How dare you come back here." João said after some minutes. His wife pinched him on the arm as if calling him out.

    "How dare I come here? I didn't even know this was your business." Shawn said like a teenager who had been dared by the nerd in school. Camila's eyes grew wide. She didn't know this side of Shawn but she would be lying if she said she didn't feel something when he scoffed.

    "After all of this time you come back here. And for what?!" João said. The place was empty so he wasn't worried about raising his voice.

    "What do you mean?! I am here for my honeymoon and if you are referring to Brazil let this be known that anyone can come here to visit. The country ain't yours old man." Shawn said. Camila could hear the bitterness in his voice.

    "You killed her!" João yelled. Shawn clenched his jaw, Camila's jaw tighten and she felt like punching the idiot, while Maria's jaw dropped to the floor.

    "I didn't kill her." Shawn said his voice stern.

    "She died because of that thing she was carrying." He said, his words dripped venom and Shawn was about to launch for him when he felt Camila's hand on his arm which instantly calmed him down.

    "She died because of a disease she had which made the pregnancy high risk. She never ever regretted getting pregnant she wanted the baby even when she knew there was a chance she might never be there for them." Shawn said. Fernanda's parents didn't know the gender of the baby or what had happened to her. All they knew was that their daughter had died at childbirth and that was enough for them to be bitter towards each other and the world.

    "That thing killed her, you killed her." He said. Camila glared at him and was at that moment Shawn really lost it.

    "Look here old man, you want to be angry! Fine but be angry at me not at my daughter because she had nothing to do with it. I wish everyday Fernanda was here to raise her baby but she isn't eventually we all need to move on and so do you." Shawn said. João face fell along with Maria's who covered her mouth with her hand in shock.

    "A baby girl?" She asked as tears filled her eyes. Shawn's eyes softened as he looked up at the ceiling and sighed before looking back down.

    "Yeah." He smiled slightly.

    A deadly silence filled the room, you could hear a pin drop. The silence though soon ended when the sound of Camila's phone ringing brought them all out of their daze.

    "It's... I'll be right back." She said. She excused herself and went outside. It was Lauren asking a question about where the twins extra bottles were at.

    "Why don't sit down huh? You've both yelled now we should talk like civilized people. João, watch it." She warned. João swallowed hard and nodded. He could act all tough but he knew who was the boss. She played the music and he danced.

    They sat down at one of the tables. Maria sighed and asked a question that had been bothering her since they had gotten there.

    "Look I know I am not in place to ask this and feel free to not answer but how is your wife with your little girl?" She asked. Shawn sighed and looked back at Camila who was still on the phone but was already looking back at them, she smiled and he smiled back before answering.

    "She is great. Our daughter calls her mom but she knows about Fernanda, I've always made sure she knew." Shawn said. Maria nodded and smiled as for João he just sat there looking like a statue.

    "Sorry Lauren was had some question about the twins." Camila said as she sat back down.

    "You guys have twins?" João asked looking a bit shocked.

    "Yeah, umm last year Camila gave birth to twins." Shawn said he reached for her hand. Camila smiled and nodded.

    "So your daughter. What's her name?" Maria asked. Shawn sighed once again and looked back at Camila searching for strength, she smiled and nodded. The smile gave him strength to take on Ercules if he could.

    "Her name is Isabela. Fernanda wanted it so..." Shawn's words trailed off. Maria nodded and smiled.

    Shawn's phone rang, he reached for it in his pocket, when he saw who it was he smiled. "Speak of the devil." Shawn laughed.

    "She probably wants to say goodnight. My mom said she had been having some trouble sleeping without us there." Camila said completely forgetting about the older couple who were hearing everything.

    Shawn nodded and answered the phone.

    "Hey sweetheart." Shawn answered his voice chipper and sweet. "Your mom? Yeah she is here right next to me you want to talk to her?" He asked. After some moments he spoke again. "I miss you too sweetheart, we'll be home in no time okay? Papa loves you, goodnight." He said smiling. He passed the phone to Camila who smiled and happily took it.

    "Hey buba. Time for bed huh?" Camila smiled into the phone and listened to every word her daughter said. She lightly laughed and nodded. "Alright we better day goodnight hon. You gotta wake up early in the morning tomorrow okay? Okay mama loves you too. Okay I'll tell your dad. Okay goodnight." She smiled and ended the call before handing the phone back to Shawn, suddenly they remembered about the old couple who were sitting in front of them. Maria wiped a tear and João was almost crying.

"Sorry what were you saying?" Shawn asked as he turned back towards them. He noticed their reactions and was a little taken aback.

João recomposed himself before speaking. "You guys should go. If you're still hungry there is another diner down the street. We're closing." He said before standing and going to the back room. Maria gave them a weak smile and followed her husband to the back.

"What in the world just happened?" Shawn asked as they both collapsed on the hotel bed.

"I have no idea." Camila sighed. They snuggled close and tried to sleep but Shawn's mind was racing a thousand miles per hour and he couldn't help but imagine the worse.
