I will be thirteen just before she marries Dad." I look forward to seeing you on Sunday after we go to church."We spoke of a few other things and then...got off the phone. Laura looked at me and said, "I was terrified all through that. April's arm around my waist kept me from running. Your parents and Jen's mother are so nice and they haven't even met me. I'm still scared but all three of you will be with me this weekend."I said, "Of course, but you will be fine. You're kind, intelligent, and. Every other project has taken two to three weeks for the office set up. This time you do it in one day, your best description is that she is little, a fighter, and is clumsy. And you tell me with complete seriousness that you are thinking with your big head and not your little head." Jack chuckled again but didn't lose control. "I'm sorry big bro but I don't really believe that. Like I said, I'm not worried about the project but I don't think you have a clear view of which head you are thinking. Lately, nothing made sense anymore and quite honestly I was tired of being thrown off balance.Sighing tiredly, I bent down to unstrap my sandals and kick them under the hall table before turning, intent on taking a shower.The sight of my brother Todd sitting on my couch burst that thought and had me stopping in my tracks. I should have expected this when I gave Mom a key for "emergencies". That didn't mean I liked it. From the look on Todd's face, I was going to like the coming conversation. Suddenly, a hand went over my mouth and pulled me backwards. I was very frightened for a moment, until I looked up and saw Bill and Mark standing there in their uniforms with big smiles on their faces. Bill whispered in my ear, "That is a pretty sight. I think we will help Laura out of her predicament." I started to struggle. The big rangers overpowered me. They quickly cuffed my hands behind my back to the picnic table and gagged me. I was helpless. Bill walked over to the tent disrobing as he.
