Claire walked around courtyard. She looked at all the pretty flowers there were.

The courtyard was another place that reminded Helen of escape. Escape from school, escape from everything that bothered her. Her eyes wandered over to a young woman watching flowers. That woman looked so much like Helen it was odd. "Excuse me miss, but what's your name?" she asked as she walked up to Claire.

"Claire" she said.

Helen's heart almost stopped. Claire. She died in an accident ten years ago. She can't be in front of her now, could she? Coincidence? It had to be! "Claire? I, I'm Helen." she told her. If it didn't matter to Claire what Helen's name was, probably wasn't her mother.

She smiled. "You know I had a daughter named Helen that looked just like you"

"Does her father happen to be Hershel Layton? Or do you know that name at all?" Helen asked. It would be a start at figuring out who Claire was.

"Yes, he was my husband, and the father of our child"

Husband? Father of our child? A child that her father never knew, and someone Helen wouldn't think of as a husband. "I... I'm Hershel Layton's daughter though." she said. This woman she believed was dead for so long, suddenly back in her life?

"I know Helen, I could never forget my own daughter" she hugged her.

A feeling washed over Helen. Surprise? Not the best surprise to Helen. "B-But you died. You died and I lost everything that day." Helen said as she looked at Claire. Mother. Mother would never be easy for her to say. She rarely ever said that word.

Tears were already on Helen's cheeks. She had a second chance of getting her mother. Nobody had second chances. She sobbed and hugged Claire. Now, what would her father think of Claire if he saw her again?

"It's alright, I won't leave you ever again" she promised.

Helen said she'd never trust her parents if she met them. That didn't seem to happen, now did it? She loved her father to death,and here she was, crying with her mother. She looked up at her. "Does... does Daddy know?" she asked. Fourteen years old and still calling Hershel 'daddy.'
