Summer of 2019 (29 years later)

Gretchen sat at a cafe table in her hometown of Hasten, Michigan with her best friend, Katrin, since birth. They had their children with them. Both of their sets of twins were seven years, only born a month apart with Gretchens twins being older by a month exactly. They also each had a boy and a girl. Gretchens kids, Finn and Lena, were talking up a storm with their best friends, Jan and Lea. Gretchen smiled looking at them. She just loved how their friendship seemed endless. She studied her childrens features. They looked like both the father and herself. She had a drunken one night stand years ago, resulting in her twins. She never listed the father nor searched for him. Well actually that's not true. She had searched only to find out he was married with kids. So she didn't want to intrude on their life. She doesn't know if he was married or not at the time of their one night stand. She just knew he was at least married now and has kids. While she wants her kids to know their younger siblings, she doesn't know how welcomed they would be. She couldn't put them through rejection. She'll have to set the record straight with then and let them decide.

"What you thinking about sis?" Katrin asked looking at her.

"You know," Gretchen answered looking at her.

"Well you could try. Never know," her friend said to her.

"Yeah but it'd hurt if they were rejected or even worse. Even they were accepted by their father how would the stepmother treat them," she pointed out.

"She can't be mad. From what I found out he got with her long after your one night stand with him. And if she treated them poorly that would be bad on her part. She'd more than likely die by their grandfathers hand," Katrin pointed out.

"True. But I just don't know," Gretchen sighed rubbing her hand threw her loose hair.

"Try. And if she has a problem with it or even says one nasty thing. She'll be hurt. I don't care who those bikers think they are. We know they couldn't take us on," her friend told her.

"I guess I could try," Gretchen breathed out. Her kids knew how they came into this world. They knew about their father and even wanted to meet him.

Three days later Gretchen sat in her home office while staring at the father of her childrens phone number. Katrin, Walter and Hans said they'd accompany her to this meeting if he agreed. Hell this man probably doesn't even remember her. One thing is for sure, he won't be able to deny her kids. Her son is identical to him and her daughter shares some strong resemblances to him as well. If they hurt her kids they'll have even more problems then they currently have going on. The German mafia will be after them. Picking up the phone she dialed the number. Listening to it ring twice, it stopped and she heard his deep voice.

"Hello, Sinister Jameson here," he said down the line.

"Sinister, you may not remember me but my name is Gretchen Sholz. In 2011, we had a one night stand and from that we have kids," she got straight to the point. "Twins born on January 17, 2012," she added.

"Actually I do remember you. Are you serious?" she could tell by his tone he wasn't happy.

"Yes, very. And before you get mad. No I didn't tell you because not long after I searched you out when they were a year, I found you had a girlfriend who was pregnant and you were going through a lot. I know what you were up against and I wasn't risking my kids getting caught in the cross fire," she said with a strong voice.
