(Flashback) Four years later after Madison's father's death. (Madison was now 17 and Lori was 11) Madison's mother had been arrested for murder as she took responsibility for her daughter's crime, she was sentenced to prison for two decades. Madison and Lori and a cousin of theirs had come to visit Josephine in prison. "Mom!" - Lori shouted in joy while she ran to hug her mom and then her mom hugged her back. Madison then also ran to her mother and hugged her. "My sweet girls.." - Josephine exhaled while she kissed their heads. They then sat down around a table. "Where's grandma?" - Josephine asked. "Mom, grandma has been ill. She couldn't come." - Madison replied. "Dear God, what happened? Is she alright?" - Josephine wondered in worry. Madison and Lori looked at each other with sadness in their eyes. "Mom.. grandma's dying." - Madison replied with a sad tone. Josephine was shocked to hear that. "What..what?" - Josephine spoke in a low tone. "This is why we wanted to visit you. We wanted to speak to you." - Madison responded. "Oh my God.." - Josephine spoke in sadness. "The law is requiring that if grandma passes away, an adult must adopt us because we're not adults yet. A family has shown interest in adopting us.. grandma has come to an agreement with them.." - Madison spoke. "Mom, I don't wanna be adopted. Grandma's our only guardian now, and if she passes away I refuse to live with new guardians. I just.. I can't" - Madison did not want to be adopted. "Baby.. I know it sucks but if that's what the law requires.. then you must obey it" - Josephine replied. "You seriously aren't telling me that I should just start a new life with random people?" - Madison spoke in fury. "Honey, you have to. What else are you gonna do?" - Josephine asked. Madison remained silent and was sad. "You have to do this. You have to do this for your sister." - Josephine claimed. "No mom I don't. Let me start my own life and let me take Lori with me. We don't need to be adopted, we have other options as well" - Madison proclaimed. "Madison no. You are not gonna live on your own, you're still a kid. You don't even work, how are you gonna support yourself and your sister?" - Josephine asked. "I'll find a way, don't worry." - Madison responded. "No, Madison, no. Listen to me please. Don't do anything that you might regret, just don't. You have to do this for your own sake, and for the sake of your sister. Don't be stubborn. You don't have to like it but you have to do this. Please baby." - Josephine pleaded with Madison. "But mom-" - Madison started to speak as Josephine interrupted her. "Did you just listen to what I said? We're not debating this." - Josephine spoke while Madison exhaled. Josephine then grabbed Madison's hands. "Don't forget why I'm here. I love you." - Josephine whispered to Madison's ear as Madison looked her mother in the eyes.
