"CAN I BE NOSEY? I'M A WRITER, so it goes with the territory." Bill asked Sophie, "Go on," she smiled him, letting him ask what he needed.

"How did your mother get this place? When I knew her, she was singing in a nightclub on the mainland." He told her, with a questioning look, staring at the hotel.

Sophie smiled, also looking at the hotel she loved so much. "She was left some money in a will. We lived with an old lady when me and Ari were little. Her name was Sophia." She told him as he looked at her confused.

"My great aunt Sophia?" Bill questioned as Sophie shrugged, not quite knowing who Sophia was, as her mother had never really told her the whole story.

"I think it must be,"

Bill sighed, taking all the information in. "I always heard her money went to family... Wait a minute. How old are you and your sister?" He questioned once more,

"We're twenty," answered Sophie.

Suddenly, Bill runs with Sophie trailing behind, who was surprised at how fast the man could run.

"Bill!" Exclaimed Sophie, not quite understanding what was happening and what had startled his sudden outburst

"Sorry. I had to get some air." As Sophie looked at him with wide eyes, as he needed to catch some breath yet she had lost hers when running.

"Why did your great aunt leave my mother that money?" Sophie asked, confused.

"I don't know?" Bill rushed, "You do. Please, just tell me." Sophie exclaimed,

"Well, what has your mother said?" Asked the writer, as Sophie shook her head at the question.

"She won't talk about the past. She doesn't understand. But I need to know!"

"Well, you and your sister will have to speak to her," Bill told the blond girl.

"This has got nothing to do with her. Our whole life has been one big unanswered question, and I don't want any more secrecy." Sophie urged him,

"Sophie, this hasn't been my secret."

Sophie took a deep breath before asking the question she had wanted to know the answer to her whole life.

"Bill, are you my father?"

"Sound kinda like darth vader when you asked... but i mean maybe? I think so," Bill joked but turned serious when he remembered the situation.

"Well you know what comes next." Sophie told him smiling slightly,

"Finding your sister for starters!"

"Will you give me away tomorrow? I'll feel like a proper bride if I can walk down the aisle with my father." Sophie told him,

"All right. I'll do it." Bill told her, nodding his head while smiling.
