“We had Pizza,” Mark said following his sister upstairs to do their homework.
Jerry asked, “Dad, did you and Mom eat?”
Speaking up quickly, Margaret said, “We’ve not eaten. When your dad heard about Katherine, he forgot about dinner and wanted to get over here to be with you guys.” “I’m not the cook Marlene is, considering what she is going through, I won’t ask her to prepare something, but Mom, if you’ll help me, we can make something for us,” Jerry said ready to go the kitchen.
“Come on son, I’ll help you,” Margaret said, following Jerry in the kitchen.
“Guess we should’ve ordered Pizza, but it’s too late now,” Andrew said.

Jackson quickly replies, “Yes!” Then looks at his dad and says, “You know it might not be to bad having mom come along. She brings sandwiches and not just chips.”

She ran down the stairs to put her bags in the car. She looked around for her mother but she was no where in sight. Poor, naive little girl doesn’t she know the real monster her mother is? She greeted her best friend and got in the car.
At that moment, Lauren walked into the room and smiled softly. “Time to go.” “Is everyone all packed up?”
“Yes. I am here for Jackie Monticello. Is she okay? Where is she?” My voice came off frantic.
“Well” the local detective started. “The victims name is Rhys Davidson, he’s a local and works in a pet store. 37 years old, no kids but a fiancée, Carissa Carver.”
