Chapter 9
On the day I was to reappear in court, I took Sunny to see her mother. Sarah was so frail, but was glad to see both of us. Sunny went & sat with her brother who met us there. I told Sarah what I was planning to do. She liked the idea. We left & went to the courthouse. Sarah came with us. When our case was called I went up with hope that Sunny was mine.

�Mr. Dorough, the test came back positive. You are indeed the father of Sunny Marie Robins. I was given some choices by Mr. Robins. He claims he told you these options what is your decision.�
�Your honor I have made another decision that was not made by Mr. Robins, but Miss Robin�s has agreed to let me do. We have agreed that until the time of her mother�s death, Sunny will remain with her brother. Afterwards she can join me & I will care for her. Also, why she is in the care of her brother I will pay child support.�
�Is this something you agreed on Miss Robins.�
�Yes, your honor.�
�Then that�s what will go down. Mr. Dorough, you will be sent paper work so that a child support amount can be determined. Court dismissed�

When we walked outside Sunny hugged me. When she pulled away she was crying, but a smile filled her face.

�Thanks Dad,� she said.

We went back to the hotel & then they drove me to the airport. I said goodbye to everyone. I left to go meet my band mates in Canada. I hoped that I would see my daughter again soon.
