Happy Valley-Andrew -Part 7

Happy Valley-Andrew -Part 7
The Hubbard’s home

'My friend Yvonne saw her daughter alive well and here in Happy Valley!’Jesse says
‘Wow that’s wonderful where is she did you help them reunite?’ asks Randi
‘Randi....’ begins Frankie figuring out what Jesse meant
‘Randi that little girl was you. My old friend Yvonne your mother is alive!’Jesse says
As we see Randi look shocked
‘My mom is alive she didn’t die? Asks Randi ’Are you sure Jesse?’
‘Yes Randi your mother is alive and she wants to see you!’ Jesse says gently
‘I don’t know. Do you know what I went through did Frankie tell you?’Asks Randi seeming embarrassed
‘We know Randi and it wasn’t your fault any of it.’ Says Angie gently
‘I lived in so many foster homes. I’d just get happy and they’d move me again.’ Randi says sadly “none of them wanted me a mixed race child. I used to try and hide and hope they wouldn’t notice me too much.’
‘What happened to you Randi did something happen in one of those foster homes?’Asks Angie gently suspecting abuse
‘It was the home after Carmen left. When she left the people who’d been looking after us decide they couldn’t care for me and I was sent to another home. At that home was a young man he was the son of the foster parents and he started touching me and then climbing into bed with me. He threatened me if I told anyone he said he would kill me .I was 13 years old and this abuse went on for about 3 more years until I ran away .I was hungry and homeless and a man Fletcher offered me shelter and food so I took it but there was a price to be paid. I had to prostitute myself.’ Randi says crying
‘Frankie told us about this!’ says Angie
‘And you still treat me like a daughter and except me as Frankie’s wife?’Randi asks surprised’I mean i thought Jesse knew because of my record but you knew Angie?’
‘Yes I knew!You re our beloved daughter honey, the beloved wife of Frankie. None of this is your fault.’ Says Angie fiercely
‘I love you guys ‘says Randi wiping tears away
‘We love you too!’Says Angie as Frankie takes Randi in his arms
‘What do you want to do Randi?’ asks Frankie “do you want to see Yvonne?’
‘I’m scared!’Randi admits “when I thought of my mother it was that she died and now to find out that I was stolen from her that we could have been together. That she killed my father. What if she’s ashamed of me what if she finds out that I used to sleep for men for money?’
‘If she loves you she’ll not hold that against you’ Frankie says “besides who is she to judge she killed your father.’
‘I sort of remember him and another woman who was with him.’ Randi says ‘I remember his wife finding to about me and saying to him that they had to get rid of me. She took me to my first foster home’
‘I’m sorry Randi that all this happened to you!’Frankie says hugging his wife some more
‘Yes me too! I want to see my mother where is she?’Asks Randi
‘I’ll call her I’m sure she can be here soon if that’s what you want Randi’ Jesse says
‘Yes!I want to see my Mom!’ Randi says “Especially now!’ she says patting her stomach
‘Yvonne? Jesse here! Randi would like to see you!’Jesse says into his phone after calling Yvonne
“Oh Jesse you don’t know how much this means to me! Thank-you!’Yvonne says ‘Tell my baby mommy will be there soon.

  1. Sheila you are writing this so well! I love learning about Randi's past, and her going back and explaining how thigns were in her childhood. How sad that there were people who didn't want to adopt her because she was mixed race :(. Love how you went in depth with that, and you integrated Fletcher in there, you added in all the right points and you put your little spins on it and it turned out great! I really could see this happening on AMC. I wonder why they haven't explored her past yet and developed it more?? I would like to see the show bring Carmen back, and start digging in more into their past....something. But for now, you are filling in that voide for me and I couldn't be happier! Awesome job, Sheila! ;)

  2. Thank you Spencer I think they really need to show more of Randi's background as well.What drove her into Fletcher's stable?I wish they would focus on that. Randi's an enigma.

  3. Also I hate the term mixed race and the way that some people take that and hold that against others is disgusting!There is only one race the human race!
