Malcolm and Jack were lost. Malcolm was mydeputy and Jack... Jack was my nephew.I was a widow and had no kids. My wife's sister Andrea lived together ...nthe same home. She was a single mom of Jack. Jack had married two yearsago. His wife Barbara gave birth to Jacilynn eight months before hisdeath.The owner of the plant was found guilty but it didn't return the ones whoperished. Jack was dead and I was alive. I was reminded of this fact everytime I faced Jacilynn, Barbara, and Andrea. As we were. Aunt Selena asked Shanaya to let me freshen up and rest for a while as we had a long journey. She showed me to my room.Mom insisted I share the room with her as there would be many guests coming soon. I was a little upset because I wouldn’t get some privacy. But I was excited to make more progress with mom now.Shanaya then left, saying, “I’ll be back to call you when dinner is ready. Until then, you guys get some rest. It is really so good to have you all here!” We both smiled.Mom started. "Good. I miss you, Alexa," he told me softly. I could almost see the sad expression on his face and the woebegone smile. "I will see you next week." Goodnight, daddy. I love you." I love you, too, pumpkin."The rest of our time was spent in doing the typical tourist things. We saw all the sights, everything from Windsor Palace and Westminster Abbey to day trips to see stuff like Stonehenge and Hadrian's Wall. It was probably the best summer I had in my entire childhood. The night before we were. From the sound of it, one or two big animals had laid claim to the dead birds and there were a lot of smaller predators who were taking turns trying to get a piece of the kill. Eventually things did die down. When it did, we went back to bed. Boy was I cold. The girls were as well. We all cuddled up under our sleeping bags and went back to sleep.It was Mother Nature that woke me. I was bagged but my bladder was full. It was still later than I'd have liked it to be. I went and took care of.
