Who her daddy was.
 
 Brows high as I recognized the name, a dash of excitement overtook the muted white noise in my ears for a second as I replied: aCooooig:**Your father was Gerard Sullivan?**
 
 Lodestar:**He was.**
 
 aCooooig:**Guess that explains why you moved around a lot.**
 
 Lodestar:**Yup.**
 
 aCooooig:**Christ. Well, I’m impressed.**
 
 Lodestar:**Don’t be. He wasn’t the best man, but he was a brilliant dad.**
 
 It took a hell of a lot to put stars inmyeyes, but dayum. Gerard Sullivan? Excuse me while I fangirled.
 
 aCooooig:**Lol. Candid as always.**
 
 Lodestar:**Yep. Worst day of my life was when he died, and after what I’ve been through on my tours of duty, that’s really saying something.**
 
 aCooooig:**I’ll bet. Mom ‘unknown?’**
 
 Lodestar: **I’m a miracle birth.”
 
 aCooooig: **LMAO. You’re certainly something.**
 
 Lodestar: **Just because you don’t know her name doesn’t mean she’s unknown.**
 
 aCooooig: **I know. I was only teasing.**
 
 Lodestar:**Come on then, tell me the truth.**
 
 She made it sound so easy.
 
 aCooooig:**I’ve never told anyone this before.**
 
 Lodestar:**If you haven’t, then how did it cause your family any trouble?**
 
 aCooooig:**Because my brother caught us.**
 
 Lodestar:**Your brother caught you doing what?**
 
 aCooooig:**I wasn’t doing anything.**
 
 Lodestar:**Hmm. You’re still being cryptic. So,it was being done to you?**
 
 aCooooig:**Yes.**
 
 Lodestar:**Bad things?**
 
 aCooooig:**The worst.**
 
 Lodestar:**How old were you?**
 
 aCooooig:**Seven.**
 
 Lodestar:**Christ, aCooooig.**
 
 Conor:**Call me Conor, Star.**
