Kate
I had to write my mothers obituary, she kept the fact she had cancer from us all. Only her drs knew.I spent hours trying to write it. In the end I realized how little I knew about my own mother. Dad couldn't even help me with it. I didn't know that her mother's name was Charlene Abernathy. You would think I would have known that. I found out I had a brother who died after three days of being born.
Ethan
I came home for moms funeral bring little Ethan and my wife Raza . We three arrive at my parents home and no one is home. Which is weird. Suddenly I hear a sports car coming up the drive at first I thought it was Kate. Out hops a twenty something bleach blonde and dad is right behind her.
Eamon
Sorry we are late Ethan, meet Lisa Rogers, she is my interior decorator. And who do you have with you?
Ethan
Raza this is my dad Eamon Kavanagh recent widow. This is little Ethan as he looks at my son and at Raza.
Eamon
I suppose you are staying her for the funeral and the reading of your mothers will?
Ethan
Is that okay with you dad?
Eamon
Sure take your old room we need to get something for the baby to sleep in.
Ethan
Is my car still here?
Eamon
But someone's using it right now. You can drive your moms car for now. I think she has a baby's seat in it. Why I have no idea she had them in there. I just left them in it. We start it up to move it. The funeral is tomorrow and the reading of the will the next day.
Kate
Dad called and told me he liked the obit for mom. I can't believe this job, to think you have to write your own mothers obituary and know nothing. Ethan has a wife and child. Another person I hardly know. I see something odd cross my desk, well thrown at me. A photo of Christian Grey kissing a brunette in public of all places. I look at it closer and that's Anastasia Steele. Her four children standing with them. Wait it looks like a family outing. Mia, Elliott, Grace, Carrick and the Trevelyan duo. They are like one big happy family. Sharon walks by and says looks like Christian Grey is almost down the aisle with this one. It was just a kiss, they aren't engaged or anything. I throw myself into the rest of the obits and everything else I have to take care of.
Ethan
I dial Kate and tell her I have arrived and met the interior decorator Lisa Rogers.
Kate
Oh she won't last long, they have been coming out of the woodwork hoping to marry him and live the life of Riley. But according to sources mom didn't leave her estate to just us. Dad gets a third of Kavanagh Media along with us. She left ten million.to  each of us. But most of her estate go to charities. Did you know mom was worth billions. Her jet was sold and guess who bought it. Christian Grey. I had no idea she had one. Christian bought a few more things from the estate and got a decent deal for it. Mom had a safe spot for him for some reason. But he is being generous because after all its going to charities. Hoe do you feel about all of this
Ethan
Well I think it was her money to do with as she wished. The money is going to charities. We lived very nicely Kate and she left us money, we can complain too much can we? Some people don't have anything and has to come up with money just to bury their family. When are you coming home? I want you to meet Raza and little Ethan.
Kate
Give me an hour to get there. A hour later I walk into a nice meal cooking and a baby crying. I drop off my briefcase and laptop on the desk toss my purse and cell phone there as well. I see a surprise standing in the kitchen. My brother cooking supper and a woman holding a baby who is now staring at me with bright blue eyes and caramel skin. Raza has the same features. I shake hands with little Ethan and Raza Kavanagh. So when did you learn to cook?
Ethan
Raza taught me how to cook for myself. She said everyone pulls their weight in the Red Cross, if you don't cook you don't eat.
Raza
One hand washes the other I think that is an old saying here right? Hey I hear you know Christian Grey?
Kate
We know one another, but aren't friends.
Raza
He owns GEH right?
Kate
Yes why?
Raza
He is a very generous man, he has saved so many people from starving. A good man, a very good man. I would like to thank him for my life and my families lives personally, can that be possible?
Kate
Good luck with that we barely get by his security.
Raza
I will try anyway.
Christian
I get a call from Ethan Kavanagh and I take it since I am still in negotiations on his mother's estate.
Ethan
I have a huge favor to ask of you. My wife Raza wants to thank you personally for saving her and her family's lives. Can she come meet you and do that?
Christian
I will be at the reading of the will to sign my documents. Is that okay? So you finally got married, a lot women will be heartbroken.
Ethan
And how is your love life?
Christian
What Kate doesn't have the latest information on my love life yet?
Ethan
Apparently not, so tell me you found mis right and not miss right now.
Christian
Well I hope to be adopting her four children this time next year if we keep going the way we are. I have asked and she has finally agreed to marrying me. Our house is the hold up.
Ethan
Elope and make due until the new place is finished.
Christian
I asked, but she said she wanted to make sure nothing goes wrong for us.
Ethan
What could go wrong?
Christian
A lot. How did you get your wife to say yes?
Ethan
I didn't recall asking, all the sudden I am married and then a year later we have an infant and my mother dies. Life goes on, go marry that girl.
