"I'm notworried, dear."


"There's more."


"You'remarried?" Elvis said, jokingly.


"No. But aftermy first time, I turned up pregnant." Tammy Sue admitted.


"I never saw youwith a child?" Elvis asked, confused.


"I knew abortionwas out of the question, so I gave the baby up for adoption after itwas born." Tammy Sue continued.


"I'm sorry youhad to go through that, dear." Elvis gave Tammy Sue a kiss to showhis love and support.


"Tommy neverknew about the baby." Tammy Sue admitted.


"I thought yougrew up with him?"
