23 Griffin Way - Saturday Morning

Piper was absolutely devastated! Her hotel room had been sabotaged by a freak flood that came out of nowhere. As if things weren't bad enough, the hotel had conveniently lost her reservation and could not stay in any of the other vacant rooms. The injustice of it all

"How terrible that they lost your reservation at the hotel! That Connell woman is just ridiculous sometimes. I can't imagine how she runs a business," said Dani. "Take your pick of bedrooms on the second floor. I just finished decorating the whole house a couple months ago when my dad came to stay for the weekend."

"It's really lovely," Piper said, taking in all of the beautiful decor. "Must be nice to have a dad who visits. Mine abandoned me when I was just a little girl."

She sniffled ever so slightly.

"Now that sounds like my mothers, both of them," said Dani, a tone of bitterness in her voice. "The real one abandoned me at birth, and the one who was married to my dad rejected me. As for dear old Dad, he lied to me for years about my true heritage. The only person I've ever been able to count on was my brother."

"Oh, that's terrible!" Piper said melodramatically. "My mother...she died when I was very young. I only had my sisters to count on."

This time, a single tear fell from her eye.
