It is November now and although Astrid's birthday is coming up she doesn't tell anyone and lets it pass like it doesn't matter. That night Astrid goes outside on the porch to talk to Ray like every night and he asks Astrid about her dad. She had always wanted to meet him and one day she had found a birth certificate in her mothers book. She knew his name and saw a picture of him but other then that she had never seen him. Starr comes out at this moment and asks Ray to go to the store. He asks if Astrid wants to come but Starr says she wants to talk to her alone. Starr then threatens to kick Starr out because she thinks she is going to ruin the only good thing she had which was Ray. Starr promises she would never do that because she likes being there and wouldn't ruin that. Starr never did call Child Services but from then on she stayed home 34/7 and watched Astrid's every move. Her mother told her not to go after Ray but Astrid didn't care because she wanted Ray. He finally came to pick her up from school one day and took her to show her around the house that he had just finished building. From there they end up making love as Astrid knows that ray could not resist her.
