Love At Stake

"Tobin! Tobin!" She called out his name, but he was gone. And was probably never coming back. She had seen that look in his eyes before. He was angry and in that state he was capable of doing anything. "You are ungrateful. After all the Lancaster have done for you. You have no right to be so angry! Do you think staying with your loser father would have been better? Look I know what I suffered as a kid. My supposed dad, your biological father was all I got and I dare say he failed in his responsibility!" Those were the exact words she had said to Tobin few minutes ago. Tobin was hurt. Although he had never met his biological father, but he was sure he deserved more than Sharon was saying about him. He knew right from the start he didn't belong to the Lancaster family. They were all too different from him. He knew something was wrong about the family but he never could tell what it was. He was going to avenge the death of his mother no matter what it will cost him. Sharon was confused. She was torn between her new found family and her love for Tobin. In that moment of despair she felt a sharp pain on her left arm, one which she hasn't felt for years since her supposed father's death, and she has always prayed never to experience it again. She knew what it meant. Someone she loves was about to die but the question on her lips was "Who is it going to be?" ******** A gamble was made, two babies were switched, lives were lost, but love was found, but at what expense?

Flash back 1

"Do you want to put it to a bet?" Mr Lancaster asked asked again the shock on Mr Huffignton face still there.

There was a Monte Carlo fallacy playing out right there. Mr Lancaster was coming for a bet base on the fact his other children have all been males.

"You are joking right?" Mr Huffignton asked the stunned look still on his face. He couldn't believe his friend was about to pull a credusal on him.

A credusal is a bet on natural occurances. Both of them have been known to engage in bets like this right from their teenage days.

"I am not joking pal, do you have the balls to accept it?" Mr Lancaster asked the look on his face telling anyone he wasn't joking.

"What will be at stake then" Mr Huffignton asked as he began to pick interest in the bet.
