That night, my siblings and I were rushing to Sheila's house to find our father. Frank took Liam earlier today, it's been many hours and we don't know where our little brother is.


Fiona banged her palms against Sheila's front door until she opened it partly, "Where the hell is he?" Fiona demanded.


Sheila gasped and unlocked the chain on her door before swinging it open fully, we all barged inside as Sheila exclaimed, "Children!"


We headed up the stairs, "Frank!" We ran along the hall until we found Frank asleep in him and Sheila's room, we crowded  in the doorway.


"Where's Liam?" Fiona asked Frank didn't budge. So, she ripped the sheets off of him. Frank groaned and sat up, he looked at us and blinked cluelessly, "Hey," he greeted. I shook my head and turned around, spotting Karen in the hall.


"Where. Is. Liam?" Fiona demanded, I looked back at Frank who took a breath. "He's at his first sleepover," he told us in a calm tone.  "He's 2!" Fiona yelled. Frank shrugged, "They sleep a lot at that age!"

Typical Frank made a bet which he lost and couldn't pay up what he owed. So the guys took Liam, and we had to get him back.


Frank told us where to go and now we were sprinting up the stairs to an apartment, "Which way?" Fiona yelled as she lead the way. We reached a hallway with a door at the end, "This one?" Fiona asked, she turned her head and Frank nodded behind us.


Fiona knocked on the door, then banged on it. We all yelped as the door opened and we were greeted to a rifle in our faces. "Who the fuck are you?" The guy holding the rifle yelled.


"We want Liam back!" Fiona stated with raised arms. "Liam stays, he's collateral!" the guy told us. Fiona let out a long sigh.


"Then you better start shooting." Fiona brought her hand to move the gun away from the face and pushed past the guy, the rest of us followed suit.


Inside the guy's apartment, we all pulled out as much cash as we each had on us and chucked it down on a table. "How much is that?" The guy asked.


"Don't know, but we're good for it," Fiona stated, "Gallagher's pay their debts, now where the hell is our brother?"

We got our brother home safe and unharmed. Me and my sibling stood in Debbie and Liam's room watching Fiona  put him in his cot.


"Good night, Liam."


"Love you, Liam."


My brothers went back to our room, I hovered and decided to go downstairs to the kitchen.
