"Adam!" I gasped. "You thought you'd seen the last of me!" he said with a smirk. I was too scared to say anything. "I'm back and I'll have my revenge!" he replied.

It's been seven years since Tommy's family survived the horrible attack. They try...
"Good morning dad and papa!" said Jacob. "Good morning!" I replied. "Slept well?" asked James. "Yes!" he said.

"Why are you so tired?" I asked. "I had a horrible nightmare last night!" she said. James gave me a worried glance.
"Adam is sitting behind bars, you've nothing to worry about!" I replied calmly. "I really thought we were going to die that night!" said Meggie with a shudder. "Me too!" I replied.
After a while came my oldest son and his fiancee to the kitchen. They have grown so much, time just flies away.

"I'm so grateful that you two let me stay here!" said Amber. "You are a part of our family and I see you as my daughter!" I replied. "Thank you Tommy!" she said with a smile. "You're the best sister ever!" replied Meggie. "Aww, you are so sweet!" said Amber.
"What's the plans for today?" asked James. "Amber and I will go to the cemetery to light a candle for Amara and dad!" said Eric. "Can we come too?" asked Jake. "Of course!" he said. "They will be very happy!" I replied.

"Be careful, don't talk to strangers!" said James strictly. "We promise papa, the twins are safe with us!" replied Eric. "You have become so grown up!" I said. "Don't cry dad!" he replied softly. "I didn't, I had something in my eye!" I said. "Oh dad!" he replied laughing.

I stood by the window and looked at the clear blue sky. The birds chirped happily in the air and the leaves on the trees shone green.
My husband wrapping his arms around me and I had a happy smile on my face. He kissed my cheek and I gave him a kiss back.
"What are you thinking about?" asked James. "Everything that has happened!" I said. "I've a feeling we'll get our happy ending!" he replied. "I hope we can live a normal life now!" I said. "I don't mind!" replied James.
Tommy's family deserves nothing but love and happiness. They have gone through horribe things and lost wonderful people.
