Vic looked pretty nervous. "What?"

The doctor looked pretty nervous too... should I be nervous?

"Michael Fuentes is the father of the young girl..."

Mike definitely wasn't happy.

"What do you mean I'm he father?" He yelled.

"I- I'm sorry sir..." the doc stuttered, "I w-w-was just doing my job... since you are the father, she is legally in your custody now, and i-is your responsibility... Y- you c-c-could put her up for adopt-"

Vic cut him off.

'"No niece of mine is going up for adoption!"

"I don't think that's your decision Vic."

Mike was definitely pissed now.

"But she's family Mikey."

"She's survived just fine without us this long... and we don't even know her!"

"We can discuss this later Mike. We have to get her some real food, she's been asleep for days."

"Fine," Mike sighed, "but I'm not keeping her."

"She's not a dog Mike..."

"That doesn't change my opinion one bit." Mike replied.
