Samantha got home within minutes of walking from school. She doesn't have a car yet, but she's planning on getting one when she's in college. "Speaking of which, I haven't thought of where I should attend college." She thought. She just shrugged as she walked to their front door.

"I can't believe you had the guts to do that! Was I not good enough for you?!" Her mother's yell caught her by surprise. Samantha hasn't heard her mother yell like that in years!

Samantha quickly opened their door and sure enough, she saw her dad, her mom and a strange woman.

"Dad? Mom?" She croaked out. "Go to your room, hun. We'll discuss this later." Her mom cooed and fakely smiled at her, but it's obvious her mom was lying. She didn't buy it. "No mom. I'm staying here until I know what's going on." she says. "No, Sam. Go to your room." her mom gritted her teeth, but that didn't scare Samantha. She shook her head and said "No mom. Dad, what's going on?" she asked her father, but his father just looked down the floor.

Samantha looked at the stranger. The woman has bleached, blonde hair, very red lipstick and she wore a very tight, short red dree with red pumps. "And who are you supposed to be?" Samantha asked confidetly, even she caught herself by surprised.

"um.. C-Cassandra." the woman stuttered.

"Go to your damn room now!" Her mom yelled. "No mother. I want to know what's going on." she said quietly. They all stood there awkwardly. "Alright. I'm going to my room, but mum, you have to tell me." Samantha said and went up the stairs to her bedroom to take a shower, change and do her homeworks, while her mum and dad and that woman were having an 'adult discussion'

Niall was just sitting in his bed, not really knowing what do.

"Samantha's very nice." he heard his mum's voice. "Yes, she is." he replied with a small smile on his lips. Just thinking of Samantha made his heart flutter with happiness. "You're blushing, Niall. I know you really like that Samantha girl." he can only imagine his mother's smile and possibly, her mother's eyes light up when she said that.

Maybe his mum was right, maybe she is right. He was even surprised himself someone would help him.

"Well, I better get started with dinner." And with that, Maura walked out the door and down the stairs to the kitchen to prepare their meals for the night.

Niall slowly stood up with his wooden cane in his left hand and stretching out his right arm to prevent breaking anything. He sighed and started walking to his closet and changed into grey sweatpants and a loose white t-shirt.

He went back to bed and immediately fell into deep slumber with the events of today on his mind.
