For those of you who don't like either or one of them, give this story a chance cause this story may surprise you.
The kids helped with the twins even a year and a half after they were born when needed. Simon had started baseball for the community league which Eric and the kids would go to his games and really enjoyed them. Annie and Lucy would stay home since Lucy wanted to help with Sam and David even though all Lucy did was just play with them with their toys while Annie did housework. A month into playing the game Simon really did something for the team that made them excited.
"Ya. Simon!! We win!!!" Simon's team mates shouted.
Simon hit his home run and the fourth game winning home run. Simon and his team went to a pizza place to celebrate, with Simon's family and his teammates' families. Then they all went home, Simon took a shower then they all went to bed. The next morning Eric went to work and the kids went to school while Annie would take care of the twins then when lunch came Eric came to eat and help out then one day he came home early since he had no one to counsel which Annie liked because with Eric home she can take a nap or run errands. Friday that night, Lucy went to stay over at a friends to study for a history test that was on Monday, Mary also upstairs doing homework as well, Simon was helping Ruthie with her homework while the twins were in the room next to Simon's. Ruthie had the room that used to be Mary and Lucy's, Lucy and Mary were in the attic and Matt was in the apartment with John. Eric and Annie were watching TV when the phone rang then Eric left to go talk to a parishioner at the church. He came home around 10:45 pm to find Annie already in bed reading as he came in, she smiled at him and he smiled then got ready for bed. As he got into bed, he apologized for being late then Annie told him that she trusted him and was glad that the parishioner had someone to talk to. Annie finished the chapter then turned off the light on her head stand as did Eric on his then they cuddled in bed, Eric holding her as they fell asleep as the rest of the Camdens. Few days later Matt takes Simon to the banquet that they had for the baseball champions which Simon and his team was excited for. A few nights later Eric was on the couch watching TV as Annie was putting the twins down to sleep with Lucy's help, the phone rang as Eric got it.
"Hello?"
"Hello there Reverend." A voice says.
"Who is this?" Eric asked
"You remember me? The man of the brother you put to death."
"What? What are you talking about?" Eric asked again confused.
"What do I mean? My brother was killed by the state because of your testimony."
"What testimony? What are you talking about?" Eric asked again.
"I know where you work."
"What?" Eric asked again worriedly.
"You will never see your kids again. Goodbye." The man says.
Eric then calls Sgt. Michaels who then comes over a few minutes later with another officer which Eric tells Sgt. Michaels the call he had just got and he asks him what the guy was talking about. The kids were upstairs doing homework, Annie was in the living room and Eric had told her everything about the call before Michaels came.
"Well Eric, what happened was that there was a reverend who had testified against the guy's brother and the guy was put to death. I guess the guy who called, got the wrong number because you have not testified against anyone. So what we will do is put a wiretap on your phone in case he calls again and tell your kids to be careful of who they talk to and what they say. Then we will have an officer listen in when someone calls."
The kids were told to be careful and Matt would pick up Simon, Ruthie, Mary and Lucy from school. After a few days the police tracked down the number and arrested the man who was threatening the Camdens. A few days later after supper, Matt, Simon and Ruthie went to the ice cream Shoppe. As Simon and Ruthie walked to the car, Matt got knocked down by one guy and another guy grabbed Simon and Ruthie then put them in the car yelling and screaming for help as Simon held on the Ruthie. The guy who punched out Matt got to the drivers seat and the car sped off with Simon, and Ruthie. People outside the shop who saw what happened called 911 and went to check on Matt who was still out.
"Sir? Can you hear me?" A female patron asked as she shook Matt.
"The police and ambulance are on the way!!" Another patron who called 911 said.
"Sir? Are you alright?" The lady asked Matt as he awoke.
"Oh, no my brother and sister!! Where are they?!" Matt asked as he got up and looked around.
"Two men kidnapped your brother and sister but one of them knocked you out." She said.
"Oh no, I don't even know who they are!!" Matt says.
"Don't worry everything will be fine, police are on the way.."
A while later--
"Matt!" Eric yells as he runs to his son.
