Dally's Little Sister

Mom

Dally POV

I had put Dani's suitcase in the back of my car. I can't believe our mom died and that she was here! Dani and I are going to her house after we swing by Buck's to grab me some clothes. It seems pointless to bring stuff over since she lives in town, but we plan on staying a few days so we can get everything packed an decide what we want to do with everything.

"Come on Dani we got to go" I yelled as I climbed into the car. She came running out of the house and hopped over the door to the car. She landed into the passenger seat. She had a smile on her face, she seemed happy

"You ready dani?"

"Yeah dal. Let's go"

The car ride over there wasn't long, but it was in Soc territory so we had to be careful. We parked In front of the house and grabbed our things. I unlocked the front door with the keys that were in the envelope. I pushed the door and it swung open, we walked inside and set down our things.

*dani POV*

I had just sat down my suitcase. I walked into what seemed like the living room while Dal shut the front door. The house was huge but there was no furniture in it. We even opened the fridge and there was nothing in it. It was like she didn't even live here.

We walked upstairs to what seemed to be her bedroom. There was a mattress on the floor in the middle of the room. She had a huge closet with a few outfits, a safe, some shoes, and a box labeled "My Kids."

I dragged the box out of the closet and sat on her bed. Dal used his knife to cut through the tape. I opened the box and started pulling things out.

"Look dal! It's you as a baby" I said holding up the picture so he could see.

"Give me that, don't tell anyone about this" he said with anger in his voice

"Sure, don't want to ruin your image" I said sarcastically

"Exactly"

I continued going through the box and found more pictures, baby albums, old clothes, toys, and at the very bottom of the box a two letters. One was blue, which said Dallas on it, and the other was pink, which said Daniella on it. I handed Dal's his and opened mine.

"Dear Daniella
If you are reading this letter it means I have died or am going to and it will also mean I haven't met you yet. I know that sounds crazy right? Me not meeting my own kids, but it's complicated. You guys were taken from me when you were little, I'm sure Dallas barely remembers. Your father had taken you away from me and I tried to find you guys but he covered his tracks. I'm so sorry for not raising you, for not looking harder. I just hope your father wasn't too bad and that Dallas didn't turn out like him. Dani raises you for the little time I did was amazing, I knew you were going to grow to be a beautiful young lady and I'm sure you are. I'm sorry I can't meet the man of your dreams or raise your kids, but I'll be watching over you. If you have made it this far dani I'm proud of you, you have survived a big portion of life so don't ever give up. Please don't make the same mistake I made, find a man of your dreams dani and don't settle for any less. Before I start bawling and ruin the paper, again, I want to say that I love you dani and I want you to live your dream to the fullest so I have left you one million dollars in the bank like I'm sure the letter said. Also there, in the safe in my closet, is another one million dollars for you to split with dal. I want the best for my kids and their babies. I know you are probably wondering like, mom where did you get this cash? Well it took a long time and a lot of work, but I did it and now it's all your guys. Dani don't give up, keep staying strong an don't Make the same mistakes I did. You will do fine. I love you little baby girl.
From, Mom
P.S. Watch dally, he got in a lot of trouble as a kid.

I was crying when I finished the letter. I looked up at dally and he had finished his too. I looked into his eyes and they were watering, mom must of said she was proud of him.

"Dal did mom tell you about the money?"

"The money in the safe?"

"Yeah that money."

"Yeah she told me." We paused for a second, we were thinking.

"Dani did she tell you about the necklace?"

"No what necklace?!"

"I'll show you." He stood up and walked into the closet were he pulled out a little box and set it in my hand. I was afraid to open it, but finally I did. It was a locket and when I opened the locket it had a picture of Dal and I as kids. I took the necklace out of the box and put it on, it fit perfectly. I rested my hand on it and began crying. Dal came up and hugged me.

"Dal I didn't even know her."

"Shh shh it's okay dani."

"Dal?"

"Yes baby girl?"

"I don't remember her!" I yelled and began crying more. Dally hugged me tighter.

"It's okay, I think these pictures are meant to help us with the things we forgot okay?"

"Okay"

Dal look outside the window and saw it was night. He laid on the bed and pulled me into his chest. I slowly stopped crying and drifted off to sleep with only one thought on my mind.

Why did he take us from her?
