          Early the next morning, Liam gets a call from Javier, one of the distributors has messed with his orders. Danielle takes the responsibility to watch Mackenzie as Liam heads into work. When he walks in, the distributor is arguing with everyone about what they ordered.

          "Whoa whoa whoa, what's going on here?" Liam asks, stepping in the middle.

          "You guys claim you ordered stuff you didn't."

          "What are you talking about?"

          "I brought the delivery."

          "I do the ordering. I know what I ordered and what should be delivered," Liam says looking at the pile. "No man this is only a third of my delivery."

         "That's what you ordered."

         "Me and my boys aren't going to finish our project on time. That's not all of my materials."

          The man shrugs. "It's what you ordered," handing Liam the slip and heading out.

        "Don't worry. I'll get the stuff from somewhere else. Go home man," Javier says.

          "I can stay and get it figured out bro it's no problem. But I swear I ordered more than that."

        "I don't know. It's cool. I'll call Vic and see what he's got lying around. Go home."

          "Okay man, thanks. I owe you one," the two bumping fists as Liam grabs his truck keys and heads out.



          "False alarm," Liam says shutting the door.

          "She hasn't woken up," Danielle smiles.

          "Probably not. She didn't sleep very well last night."

          "Too much partying?" Danielle smiles.

          "Oh yeah. Me and that girl party every night."  

           "Bottles all around," Danielle laughs.

          "Thank you for watching her," Liam says, walking over to pick Mackenzie up.

          "Anytime," Danielle nods as Liam picks up her carrier and kisses her cheek before walking out and strapping his daughter up in the truck and heading out.

          On the way home Liam's driving, tapping his thumb on the steering wheel to the beat of the music on the radio. Not aware of the speeding truck to the left of him. A hard impact t-boning the driver's side door at full speed, Liam's world goes black.
