INT. – MICHAEL’S HOUSE – MEANWHILE

Michael watches as Ty walks over.

TY

I understand why you adopted Gabriel and John James. They’re sweet and they have no family.

Michael kneels facing Ty.

MICHAEL

Your birth parents were extremely abusive to you. You could not continue to stay there.

TY

No one cared before.

MICHAEL

I care.

TY

I thought you only wanted to foster us.

MICHAEL

That is how it started. I quickly fell in love with you kids. Kye and Jye turned out to be my nephews. But you, Gabriel, and John James had no one. I care about you, Ty. I love you, my son.

Gabriel walks over.

GABRIEL

I love you as well.

Ty turns to face Gabriel.

TY

You love me?

GABRIEL

Yes.

John James walks over.

JOHN JAMES

I love you too. I like having brothers.

Michael stands up.

MICHAEL

I love the three of you very much.

JOHN JAMES and GABRIEL

We love you too.

Ty turns to face Michael.

MICHAEL

It is okay if you cannot say it.
