Title: TP-Untitled
Baby/Ring Challenge

Syracuse, New York
5:30 PM
As Jarod went running down the stairs in one hell of a rush to stay
out of reach of the Centre, something caught his eyes through the
window. It was a baby. The real reason it caught his eyes was
because Angelo was holding. Why would Angelo be out of the Centre
holding a baby? Jarod wonder. It doesn't make sense. How come
Sam, Willie and Lyle weren't there chasing him? How come it was
only Miss. Parker and how did she find him so quickly? Then it all
clicked. Miss. Parker wasn't here to take him to the Centre, she
needed his help. The only way Miss Parker could have found him was
through Angelo. Angelo always knew where and what Jarod was
doing but he would NEVER tell anyone unless he thought it would be
ok and if it would not endanger Jarod. By figuring all this out Jarod
stopped went back up the steps and ran right into a tired, sweaty Miss
Parker.
"Good evening Miss. Parker, how may I help you?" asked Jarod in a
cocky kind of voice.
"Damn it Jarod you don't just stop when someone is sprinting their
asses off to catch you…" She stopped dead thinking just how stupid
that comment was. Before she could fix what she had just said Jarod
already made a wiseass comment.
" Well if I didn't stop then you would have never caught me, don't
forget about that Miss. Parker." He said with a grin that frustrated
Miss Parker even more. "And anyways I just had to stop and tell you
how impressed I am ever time I see you chasing me in high heels and
a
tight little short skirt."
"Jarod just shut up and come outside, I need to show you someone."
"You mean the baby and Angelo?" asked Jarod.
"Now just tell me how the fuck you always know every thing! I can
never tell you more information that makes your life more fucked up
then it already is. You always tell me information and it makes me
want to know less and less about my past." Said Miss Parker in a very
anger voice.
"Settle down Miss Parker. I did not event the window, I only look out
it every time, because you never know it might be my last." Said
Jarod.
"Don't get wise with me you parentless lab rat," commented Miss
Parker and then there was silence. Right after she finished her
statement she truly regretted what she said, the pain and anger that
was present in Jarod eyes had almost killed her. She felt very bad.
She sat right down and put her heads in her hands not wanting to see
the pain in his eyes.
Jarod didn't say a word he just walked away soundlessly. Miss Parker
didn't even realize that he was gone until she looked up about two
minutes after Jarod left. She felt horrible. She whispered, "I am
sorry Jarod, I didn't mean it."
Slowly Miss Parker walked down the stairs. She walked slower then a
slug so she could regroup before she got outside to Angelo. When
she got outside a small smile crossed her face and quickly disappeared
before her favorite three men turned around to see her there in the
doorway.
"Miss Parker, I am very sorry I walked away from you, it is just
that…" started Jarod before he got interrupted.
"Jarod, no it is my fault I should not have said that and it was very
wrong. It is all my fault. All the hate that you have for me, it is
all my fault, if I were in your shoes I wouldn't even stay in contact
with myself. Jarod please forgive me, I have been so mean and I have
been trying to take you life away from you." Said Miss Parker trying
not to make connect with Jarod eyes because she could not believe
all of the emotions that were pouring out of her at the moment.
"No, Miss Parker, I have known what you have gone through, and it is
a lot worse then what I have gone through. I don't blame you for
anything. And most of all I do not hate you, because of you I am
still alive today." Said Jarod with sorrow in his eyes and
voice. "And Miss Parker, I don't think you realize, you have never
come close to taking my life away, you gave it to me."
A very confused Miss Parked asked, "What do you mean I gave your
life to you, and what do you mean that you are still alive because of me?"
"Miss Parker I am still alive because of you because when I was
younger they thought for sure I would go insane and that was what
the wanted for some insane reason. But I didn't. I didn't because I would
remember you and when you gave me my first kiss, I remember the
sweet, adventurous girl that was my best friend. You gave me a life
because you gave me your friendship; a little boy has no life if he
has no friends." Said Jarod, and Miss Parker knew that this was the
truth because she saw the same look she was so used to when they
were young.
"Jarod I, I… Jarod I don't know what to say."
"Andrea don't worry your eyes say it all." Jarod said, remembering
the first time she had told him her real name.
Miss Parker gasped, " You remember Jarod. You remember my real
name, no one knows my real name."
"Of course Andrea how could I forget? I would never forget the name
of my first love and only…" He stopped before he could finish the
statement knowing what it might do. There was silence and then…
"Jarod I… I love you." With that Jarod wrapped his arms around her
lifted her up and twisted her in circles.
"I love you Andrea Lincoln Parker, I will love you forever!" Said
Jarod full of love.
"Centre knows, Centre hears, Miss Parker and Angelo cant go back
for Centre knows, Centre hears. Baby can't go to Centre. Baby will be
hurt. Baby stays with Family." With that Angelo hands the baby to
Jarod.
As Angelo turned and starting going to the alley, Jarod stopped him
and said, "Angelo stay with me, don't go, you are my…"
"Angelo knows, Angelo knew since we were young." Said Angelo with
a smile on his face.
"How did you know?" Jarod asked very happy yet sad that Angelo
knew and never told him.
"Catherine Parker told me when I was young, when I was Timmy, that
is all I remember from the Days of Timmy." Angelo walked back to Miss
Parker and Jarod and gave them both a hug.
"Welcome to our family Angelo," said Miss Parker with a smile.
"Angelo how do you know that the Centre is listening?"
"They put a bug in Miss. Parker's coat." Angelo reached to behind
Miss Parkers coat and pulled out a bug. "They only put one though."
Back at the Centre in Mr. Parkers Office
6:30 pm
"Damn it they know. They know that Angelo and Jarod are brothers.
My damn wife betrayed me. I thought I was getting the good end of the
deal but no, my wife ended up being more of a hassle then she was
useful." Yelled Mr. Parker at Raines.
"Well it is not my fault, you are the one that promised she would be
no problem. You have screwed up too many times. She told Angelo
about him and Jarod and you promised that she was dead but no there is no
body in her grave. Someone knew we buried her alive and then they
unburied her. Catherine Parker is still alive, if Miss Parker, Jarod
and Catherine combine there forces then the Centre we know is
history, we will die, and the Centre will no longer be." Wheezed
Raines.
"Well it looks like we wont be hearing anymore of Jarod and Miss
Parker again." Said Mr. Parker in a quiet voice.
"No we will not hear from then again, I guess we can give up the hunt
for Jarod because he will not be needing to come back to the Centre
anymore since all three of them are gone. It was very unfortunate
that Sydney died in the crash about 8 and half months ago. Jarod
probably thinks we had something to do with it but in reality it was
just a freak accident, and Broots left about 9 months ago and changed
every piece of information about him and his daughter because he
had had enough of the Centre, so now there is no reason for Jarod to
come back to the Centre." Puffed an angry Mr. Raines.
Jarod's house
7:00pm
"Jarod what is this place? It is a very nice place." Commented Miss
Parker as she immediately fell in love with the house. She loved the
view of the small lake through the large Windows in the front of the
house.
"This is where I come when I want to get away. You know when I am
gone for weeks at a time, this is where I come. I come here to get
away and live a normal life. Well semi normal life. I have barbeques
with the other people on the lake and a group of them taught me how
to water-ski. It really isn't as hard as some people say it is. They
were all surprised how it came so naturally to me. When they ask me
what I do for a living I say I work as a cop and when I am here I
don't work at all because this is my break time. They all know me as
Jarod Sack. One of them calls me J-rod though. I love it out here, it
makes me feel like a normal person." Said Jarod as a smile crossed
his face.
"Angelo wants to stay, Can Angelo stay with Jarod, Miss Parker and
Baby?"
"Yes, Angelo can stay, only if he calls the baby by his real name,
which is Timothy Sydney Sack. People will call him Timmy though.
The name is ok right Andrea?"
"Of course, but know I have a question to ask because I think that
you and Angelo already know all of the answers, so here is the
question how are you guys brothers?" Asked parker desperate for the
answers.
" Well the answer is Mr. Raines raped my mother and Timmy is
produced, and I am very happy to have Angelo as my brother but I am
not happy that Mr. Raines is his father and I was never told. I have
a question of my own. Now I know you were out for about 8 months
so the baby is yours, but what I don't know is…" started Jarod.
"So far you are right, now sit down cause I know your next question,"
as Jarod walked over to the chair Miss Parker finished the
conversation." Well, at first I thought it was Lyle and that is what
I believed all the way until it was born. But when I look at the eyes
of the baby I automatically knew it was not Lyle's but it was yours.
The Eyes of this baby are your eyes Jarod and he has your smile
too."
And by the end of that sentence both Jarod and Miss Parker had
smiles on their faces. But then Jarod lost his in an instance.
"Why did you think it was Lyle at first and how is it mine?"
"Well you see it is your because Lyle injected me with your sperm or
something like that, if that is even possible, and I thought it was
Lyle's because one night Lyle followed me all the way to my car and
well he raped me."
"Oh my good Andrea, I am so sorry, if I knew I would have come to
see you immediately but I never knew. Andrea I am so sorry, please
forgive me, please, I never knew." Cried Jarod.
"Jarod it is not your fault you never knew, you could not have
stopped him. It is not your fault Jarod I love you. I will love you
forever." Unstoppable tears went rolling down her checks, she went
over to his side and hugged him and gave him a kiss that was nothing
like there first kiss but it was even better then that.
"Andrea Lincoln Parker I love you." With that they kissed again.
Meanwhile Angelo was outside talking to a man known as Bobby
Johnson.
Miss Parker and Jarod got deeper and deeper into their kiss, gasping
every once in a while for air, but then they were interrupted by
Angelo and Bobby as they walked in the door.
"J-rod buddy ole pal, you never told me about her. Or if I am not
mistaken your dream women with long legs and short leather skirts is
not quite a dream women."
"Well Bobby, you are right, she was not a dream women she is my
good friend Andrea Parker. We have known each other for about 30 years
but we got separated when we were about 20 years old. And I just found
her again." Said Jarod. " Bobby I would like you to meet Angelo, he
is my brother, and this is my friend Miss Parker. And this little
fellow is Timothy Sydney Sack. Timmy for short."
"Please call me Andrea."
"Nice to meet Andrea, Angelo and Timmy. Let me take a picture of
you and the baby, do I will have the first picture of you to." Requested
Bobby. "Jarod you never mentioned you had a brother or a baby."
"Well you see I just found out a couple of hours ago that he is my
brother, they kept it a secret from me for a very long time but I did
some searching and found out that he is my brother." Replied Jarod
knowing he had said a little too much when he saw the strange look
on Bobby's face.
"Who kept it a secret?" Asked Bobby a little afraid of the answer he
was going to get. Bobby knew that Jarod had been keeping many
secrets from him. Bobby had a talent to tell that when people were lying. He
was able to tell if it was a small lie or a big lie and one that
haunted a person's life. Now he didn't know what Jarod's big secret
was but he did know that Miss Parker was more than a friend and that
they had known each other for a very long time and some strange
things had gone on between them.
"Well, my parents did."
"You said you never knew your parents though. Jarod I know that you
had one hell of a messed up childhood but you will never feel better
if you don't try and fix it. And I also know that there is a lot more
going on between you and Andrea because I can sense it. Jarod just
tell me what happened and maybe I can help."
"Do you really want to know, if I told you it could put your life in
danger."
"Yes Jarod I want to help you. I want to help you get over his
problem of yours. I want to know."
"Ok here we go, in 1962 a corporation known as the Centre stole me
from my parents, they told me my parents died in a plane crash. I
never saw the outdoors. I lived in hell. It sucked. The only reason I
made it through my life was because of Andrea. She helped me get
through the terrible times. She even gave me my first kiss. Now that
was one of the highlights of this place." Miss Parker could feel
herself getting red and embarrassed. She had felt the same way
about her first kiss with Jarod.
"Why did they steel you? Is there something special about yourself?"
asked Bobby knowing this was going to a very interesting answer.
" Now you might not believe me when I say this but, I am a
pretender."
"What is a Pretender? Do you pretend to be different people?"
"You see I am a genius I can be anything I want to be. I help people
who have been treated unfairly. I really don't have a last name. I
just picked Sack out of a hat and that is what I told you my last
name was. You see Andrea and I have a really complicated
relationship. First we were best friends and we would always help
each other out. Then her father found out about our relationship and
he sent Andrea away. When she came back, no offense Andrea but
she was very mean, rotten almost as if she had no heart. She became
known as the ice Queen. It broke my heart when I found out she changed, I
couldn't handle it and I ran away. I escaped. Ever since I ran away
she has been chasing me. She even shot at me a couple of times. I
have also been searching for my family. I have a sister, a mom, a
dad, a brother, and Angelo, my newly found brother. Since I have
been out and on the run I have been a cop, a doctor, and FBI, everything
that you could think of. But now the rules of the game have changed.
Just a little while ago, they made Andrea pregnant with MY child,
Timmy. They are going to try and steel Timmy away from us unless
we stay hidden. I have owned this place for about 3 years and they never
even knew about it, so we are going to stay here. The rules have also
changed because now Andrea and I have come together and we are
going to protect Angelo and Timmy together."
"Andrea where are you tied in with the Centre? Why did you grow up
there?" asked bobby.
"Because my father runs the place, so I had to stay there. I was
forced to chase after Jarod because my father knew that if I were
gone Jarod would be gone. If I were always looking for Jarod, then
Jarod would never use his abilities to disappear completely. I also
have this special talent called the "inner sense." The inner sense is
kind of like people inside of me talking and tells me if something
bad will happen and it also has showed me the truth. They are like
hairs on the back of the neck except they talk to me." Miss Parker
was about to continue when Jarod interrupted.
"Bobby so do you understand what our life is like?"
"Yeah kind of. So let me see if I get why they used you two to make a
baby. They figure it will have the `inner sense' and it will be a
pretender like you. Right?"
"You got it. And Angelo here is special in his own way because he
can tell what people are feeling. Angelo and I are very good friends. He
knows where I am and what I am doing all of the time. Angelo, Parker
and I have been friends since we were very young we were like the
three musketeers. That is our life pretty much." Said Jarod as a
small chuckle came out because he amused by the look on Bobby
face.
"Wow I am really sorry you guys your life most of sucked."
"Well tomorrow I am going to have a barbeque so everyone can meet
the friends and family. Can you get the word around for me?" asked
Jarod.
"O yeah sure no problem. But everyone knows when you arrive and
you always have a barbeque the day after you get back here so they will
already know you will be having one. Come on Jarod you are the only
one that goes swimming in the middle of the night all the time like
you never went swimming when you were young." After he said that
Bobby laughed to himself. "Well I guess you swim like that cause you
never did go swimming when you were young now did you."
"No I didn't, but I did do a simulation on time where I had to rescue
someone from the water." Stated Jarod so he wouldn't sound that out
of the loop.
"What is a simulation? Wait never mind forget I asked." Laughed
Bobby as he was walking out the door. "O Jarod we have a new person on
the lake, well not really new he came to the lake the day after you left,
which was about 8 months ago. He also has this old man with him
and they had worked together for about five 3 years I think it was. He
lives a couple doors down from you. He said he and his daughter had
been having a rough life and he wanted to get away from his old life.
I don't know kind of weird but not as weird as you, you know what I
mean."
"Yes, Bobby I know what you mean. But tell the new people to come
too; I would like to meet them." Replied Jarod.
11:30 pm
Jarod's house
"Jarod are you going to bed yet? It has been a very long day and I
want you to be well rested for the barbeque tomorrow." Said Parker
from the bedroom.
"Well first I have to go swimming so the people now I am here. It
will be the only way they find out I am here." Replied Jarod with a
smug grin on his face. "Why don't you come with me? It would be the
first time a women is out there swimming with me."
Miss Parker getting wonderful thought in her mind just smiled and
said "I would love to."
With that Jarod walked over picked her up and walked down to the
water. The walked down a small hill and talked. Running down the
dock with her in her arms they jumped off the dock with all of their
cloths on. While laughing and yelling and having a good time a few
lights turned on and every once in a while you would hear a person
yell out load, "Jarod glad your back!"
"Jarod I am getting tired swimming with all my cloths on. Hold on a
sec. Let me take some off"
"I would wait an entire lifetime to hear and see you do that." While
she was taking her cloths off he was getting down to his boxers and
didn't see hear as she jumped off the dock in to the water. "Hey I
didn't see what you were wearing." Jarod complained as she swam
over to him and gave him a hug. "But I can certainly tell now. I love you
Miss Parker. I love you with all my heart and soul Andrea Lincoln
Parker."
"And I love you Jarod Sack. Hey what is your middle name?"
"I don't know yet. What do you think Andrea?"
"I think your name should be Jarod Angelo Sack."
"I love it. I will be Jarod Angelo Sack if you Andrea will be my
light, if you will be my fire, if you will be my love, if you will be
my wife. Andrea Lincoln Parker will you marry me?"
"Jarod I will marry you." And with that the were kissing and making
there way up to the bedroom. With Angelo in the guest Bedroom in
the basement Jarod and Miss Parker were free to do whatever they want
to, for as long as they wanted.
Jarod's Barbeque
1:00 PM (next day)
"Hey J-rod this is the new…"
"Broots and Debbie! How are you guys, Sydney I thought you died?
How could you? I was divested when I heard you were died. How could
you do that you were like a father, and then you say you die, How could
you Sydney?"
"Jarod I am so sorry. I didn't know it would hurt you that much."
"What you think I would just rub it off? Of course not Sydney! You
were the only person I thought of as a father. Sydney don't you think
I have had enough pain in my life. You couldn't even leave the
smallest clue?"
"Jarod, please forgive me. It is just I thought you would never
forgive me after all I have done to you. I lied to you about your
parents. I threw away your card. I thought you would never forgive
me. I tried to be as much like a father to you as possible. I always
wanted to be your father. But I couldn't, I couldn't let the Centre
know how I felt about you. If they found out they would have given
you over to Raines. I thought I was doing the best thing for you.
Jarod please forgive me. Can you give me one more chance as being
your father?" Sydney was about to cry. He had never told Jarod the
truth about how he felt about him and he a fear went sorrowing
through him saying he had wanted to long. But that fear all
disappeared the moment Jarod went sorrowing over to him and giving
him a hug.
"Sydney. I am sorry it is just that I thought you had died. I was
afraid I would have no one to look up to. Sydney, please, please
belike a father to me. I used to always look up to you and I still
do. Sydney you are just as important to me as Miss Parker and
Angelo are. Sydney never leave me again, do you promise?"
Jarod was showing pain and happiness in his eyes, he wanted
Sydney to be his father so badly but Sydney would never accept the fact. Jarod
wished Sydney would say yes. Say yes to all of his questions, but he
was afraid Sydney would not say yes to everyone of them.
"Jarod, I will never leave you again and I promise I will be the best
father like figure ever."
"Thank you Sydney."
"Hey J-rod, it might not be my business, but I am going to ask you
anyways. What if your father is still out there? You used to talk
about how you were always searching for him. What if you find him?
What are you going to do?" Asked Bobby. At that instance everyone
had a sad look on their faces. No one knew what to say. There was
silence everyone was thinking. Then finally Jarod spoke up.
"Well, to tell you the truth…"
One week ago at the DC hospital
As I run across the Hospital to the entrance were a new patient was
coming in, wondering to myself if I should help him or go, I quickly
decide I should help. Then I looked at his face. I grabbed his hand
and cried. I could feel the looks I was getting weird looks, all of
the doctors and nurses starring at me as they saw me crying in his
hands. I do not care. I knew he was going to die; all I could do was
cry that was all I knew how to do at the moment. I couldn't speak,
and I could barely walk. I was crying like a long lost baby who
almost found his way home. As he looked into my eyes he spoke.
" Jarod I was never there for you, forgive me my son, I have been
searching all of my life to find you, and when I do it is in the last
few minutes of my life. I love you Jarod. Please, please tell me that
you will find your mother and tell her I love her. I haven't seen her
in months; I have been hot on your tail for so long but always a step
behind you and The Centre. I am sorry I let them take you from our
family when you were young. I will always be looking out for you my
son." Major Charles said.
" Dad don't worry I will love you forever. You were there for me
always in my dreams even though I never meet you." I paused quickly
then, all I could think of asking was, "Dad what is my real name?"
It was too late.
Present Day
"The doctors had to pull me away from him. I couldn't let go. He was
the second person in my life to die, or so I thought. I didn't know
what to do. My life was cloudy, so confusing. I had no one to look up
to. I thought I had no one. But then you all showed up. I just wish
he could come back to see me right now with my family and friends."
Jarod cried. Miss Parker rushed to his side just holding him
whispering "don't worry I am here for you, and I always will be."
There was silence for about 1 minute the Miss Parker spoke again.
"Jarod I am so sorry. You never got to have a real conversation with
your father." There was another moment of silence but then Miss
Parker spoke again, "But Jarod, what about Jay, your clone? Who is
he
with? What did you do with him?"
"Miss Parker settle down. I know you had a strong relationship with
him, because I stole the DSA of you and him talking. I have every
single DSA about Jay. Miss Parker you have to trust me, but I can't
tell you yet. When the time is right I will explain it all to you.
But don't worry you will be able to see him whenever you want in a
couple of weeks." Explained Jarod. This statement confused
everyone. No one knew what to do or say because Jarod would normally tell
them all right away. But this time he didn't. "Miss Parker I think it is
about time we shared our secret with everyone. Would you like to tell
them, or shall I?"
"I will. Sydney, Broots, Debbie, and Bobby. Jarod and I are going to
get married. Out of all the names we could have chosen for our last
name, we choose Sack because everyone on this lake knows Jarod
with the last name Sack. We are now Mr. and Mrs. Jarod Angelo Sack. We
already have our son as you all know and his name is Timothy
Sydney Sack." Miss Parker smiled as everyone was shocked yet very happy
for them. No one every new that they would come together, no one
imagined with the lives the used to have it was not even an idea that had ever
popped up. "Hey Jarod can I talk to you for a second in the house?"
"Yeah, of course, I will be right in I need to quickly tend to the
grill and then I will be in." As Jarod was walking towards the grill
Sydney was talking with Broots.
"Broots, was it the right thing for me to do, to tell Jarod I would
be his father?" Sydney was afraid he did the wrong thing. He did not
want to hurt Jarod. He did not want to cause Jarod any more trouble
because he caused enough for Jarod already.
"Syd, don't worry. It was the right thing to do. If you did not,
Jarod would have been devastated. You have always been like a
father to Jarod. If you reject his request for you to be his father then he
might not have been able to forgive you for keeping him locked up all
those years. It was the right thing to do. Don't worry Sydney."
Replied Broots. This was the first time for Broots that he felt 100%
sure about what he had just said, he was positive he was doing the
right thing.
Meanwhile inside with Jarod and Miss Parker
"Andrea, you can't be serious. You know I have always wanted this.
You can't say no now. Can you?" He asked afraid she would be able
to say yes, and ruin his dreams and hopes for their future.
"Jarod, I have to go back. With or without you, I am going to go back
to the Centre and I am going to do what they did to us. I am going to
make their lives horrible. If you help me we can do it with ease. You
know that. I found out on my own; that the main reason I was shipped
off to school was because if you and I got to close we could take
down the Centre. We could take it down without a struggle."
"Miss Parker you are wrong. I ran into someone the other day and she
explained it all to me. She said that is what we were made to think.
But that was only a lie, they told us a lie in which we both believed
for many years."
"Yeah Jarod, what women did you run into that knows so much about
the Centre? Who was it, my mother?" She said with complete sarcasm.
"And before you answer that you have to stop calling me Miss Parker. I am
soon to be your wife. Call me Andrea. OK?"
"All right. Well since we are about to be husband and wife, I have to
give you our engagement ring." He tried to change the subject. He
scurried off around the corner and returned back with a small blue
box. Andrea realized the box immediately. It was the same box that
held her Grandmother's silver engagement ring. "Andrea, I can tell
you remember this box, and I just made a promise with your mother
and I said I would give you this ring as our engagement ring. Andrea,
will except this ring as a token of our promise to love and to
respect each other for as long as we live?"
"I do." With that Jarod slowly placed the ring on her finger and then
they made eye contact. The connection of their eyes and the love they
saw in the others eyes, erased all of the possible doubts that were
rolling around in their heads about getting married. Jarod picked up
Andrea and they kissed and held each other until Broots interrupted
them.
"Oh, sorry guys, I was just coming to tell you that the food is ready
to be eaten. I will go back outside and let you guys finish up." Said
Broots who was very embarrassed.
"Broots don't worry about it. You make it sound as if we had just
started something," replied Andrea while giving Jarod an elbow to the
gut.
"Yea, really Broots it is fine we were just about to go into the
bedroom until you came in." Jarod laughed at the look of shock on
Broots' face. "Broots don't worry we were only joking we were about
to come outside anyways. Or at least I was because I am starving."
As Broots walked out, shortly followed by Jarod and Miss Parker
everyone started to clap for Jarod and Andrea because the news
spread
quickly throughout the crowd that they were going to get married.
Three Days Later
"Do you Jarod Angelo Sack take Andrea Lincoln Parker to be your
wife, to love and to cherish her until death do you part?"
"I do"
"Do you Andrea Lincoln Parker take Jarod Angelo Sack to be your
wife, to love and to cherish her until death do you part?"
"I do"
"I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the
bride."
With that Jarod picked her up and kissed her, as they walked down
the isle to the limo waiting for them to take them back to Jarod's house.
On the way there the talked and talked.
"Jarod, do you think you can tell me where we are going for our
honeymoon?" Asked a very antsy miss parker.
"Not yet. But I will tell you it will be wonderful weather, nice and
warm, not hot but warm."
Arriving to the 1000 islands
"Jarod, I love it here. I remember when we were young and I said that
I always wanted to take you to the 1000 islands because they were so
pretty. I remember having a dream when I was young, you and I were
free and we were having a vacation on the 1000 islands. I guess it
was a vacation but a honeymoon. I love it here Jarod. But do we
really have to go back in five days?"
"Yes we do, but lets not think of that yet. We have a long time
before that day comes around."
As they walked through the doors of there rented house Andrea
gasped
at how beautiful it was. "I love it here Jarod. This was the perfect
place for the honeymoon. Jarod I love you. I can't wait to have a
family of 5 with you. Five is a good number right?" Andrea asked.
"Five is exactly what I was thinking. It is a perfect number. When
should we get started with this family though?" He asked eyeing the
bedroom with a sly smile on his face.
"I don't know I think I should make you wait and torture you for a
little while first."
"Wrong answer," he yelled as he ran to her, picked her up and carried
her to the bedroom. "Wrong answer Andrea, I think we should start
now."
With that the fell into a deep and passionate kiss which lead to many
other things.
Five Days later at Jarod's house
"Broots, you sure Jarod said she would be here today?"
"Positive, he sent me a copy of the email he sent to her. I doubt
that Jarod would ever do suck a thing like that if she really was
going to be here. I never knew her but I am sure she was far to kind
and special to ever play a trick like that with her memory. Everyone
has such a wonderful memory of her is what I gather."
"You are right Jarod would never do something like that. He is far
too smart, far too special. I love the young man he was always so
kind to Andrea."
"It really is you isn't?" Exclaimed Sydney as he ran over and gave
her a hug. "I have missed you so much! I thought, I thought."
"No Sydney, I was fine all along." She replied knowing what he was
going to say. "And you must be Broots. When I first saw Jarod he
talked so much about you. He said you were very important to
Andrea.
Even though she picked on you, you must know that you are very
important to her. I am very happy to finally meet you."
"Wow, you look the same as you do in all the pictures I have seen of
you. I am very glad to meet you. I can't wait to see the look on
Miss. Parker's face, or should I say Mrs. Sack's face when she meets
you."
" Jay is that you? I am so happy to see you"
"I am glad to see you to Mrs. Sack. Mrs. Sack, right? No more Miss
Parker?"
"Right"
"Hey Jay how are you?"
"Good Jarod and yourself?"
"Excellent"
"Mom!! Is that really you? I thought you were died?"
"Andrea calm down. At first I thought I was going to be. But Major
Charles saved my life."
"He did?" Andrea and Jarod asked together.
"Yes he did. Mr. Parker and Raines buried me alive but Major Charles
followed them because he knew I was in danger. He followed the two
men and he found them burring me alive them he immediately
unburied me when they left. I am alive today because of your father Jarod."
"Wow this is the happiest day of my life." Smiled miss Parker. I have
found of two of the most enjoyable news I am ever going to get."
"Andrea what do you mean two most enjoyable pieces of news?"
Jarod asked knowing the answer.
"Well for starters I found my mother. And second in nine months we
are going to have two child Jarod."
"I love you Andrea, with all my heart I love you."
"I love you too Jarod. More than you will ever know."

Title: TP-Untitled
Baby/Ring Challenge
By mtwski4@hotmail.com
Syracuse, New York
5:30 PM
As Jarod went running down the stairs in one hell of a rush to stay
out of reach of the Centre, something caught his eyes through the
window. It was a baby. The real reason it caught his eyes was
because Angelo was holding. Why would Angelo be out of the Centre
holding a baby? Jarod wonder. It doesn't make sense. How come
Sam, Willie and Lyle weren't there chasing him? How come it was
only Miss. Parker and how did she find him so quickly? Then it all
clicked. Miss. Parker wasn't here to take him to the Centre, she
needed his help. The only way Miss Parker could have found him was
through Angelo. Angelo always knew where and what Jarod was
doing but he would NEVER tell anyone unless he thought it would be
ok and if it would not endanger Jarod. By figuring all this out Jarod
stopped went back up the steps and ran right into a tired, sweaty Miss
Parker.
"Good evening Miss. Parker, how may I help you?" asked Jarod in a
cocky kind of voice.
"Damn it Jarod you don't just stop when someone is sprinting their
asses off to catch you…" She stopped dead thinking just how stupid
that comment was. Before she could fix what she had just said Jarod
already made a wiseass comment.
" Well if I didn't stop then you would have never caught me, don't
forget about that Miss. Parker." He said with a grin that frustrated
Miss Parker even more. "And anyways I just had to stop and tell you
how impressed I am ever time I see you chasing me in high heels and
a
tight little short skirt."
"Jarod just shut up and come outside, I need to show you someone."
"You mean the baby and Angelo?" asked Jarod.
"Now just tell me how the fuck you always know every thing! I can
never tell you more information that makes your life more fucked up
then it already is. You always tell me information and it makes me
want to know less and less about my past." Said Miss Parker in a very
anger voice.
"Settle down Miss Parker. I did not event the window, I only look out
it every time, because you never know it might be my last." Said
Jarod.
"Don't get wise with me you parentless lab rat," commented Miss
Parker and then there was silence. Right after she finished her
statement she truly regretted what she said, the pain and anger that
was present in Jarod eyes had almost killed her. She felt very bad.
She sat right down and put her heads in her hands not wanting to see
the pain in his eyes.
Jarod didn't say a word he just walked away soundlessly. Miss Parker
didn't even realize that he was gone until she looked up about two
minutes after Jarod left. She felt horrible. She whispered, "I am
sorry Jarod, I didn't mean it."
Slowly Miss Parker walked down the stairs. She walked slower then a
slug so she could regroup before she got outside to Angelo. When
she got outside a small smile crossed her face and quickly disappeared
before her favorite three men turned around to see her there in the
doorway.
"Miss Parker, I am very sorry I walked away from you, it is just
that…" started Jarod before he got interrupted.
"Jarod, no it is my fault I should not have said that and it was very
wrong. It is all my fault. All the hate that you have for me, it is
all my fault, if I were in your shoes I wouldn't even stay in contact
with myself. Jarod please forgive me, I have been so mean and I have
been trying to take you life away from you." Said Miss Parker trying
not to make connect with Jarod eyes because she could not believe
all of the emotions that were pouring out of her at the moment.
"No, Miss Parker, I have known what you have gone through, and it is
a lot worse then what I have gone through. I don't blame you for
anything. And most of all I do not hate you, because of you I am
still alive today." Said Jarod with sorrow in his eyes and
voice. "And Miss Parker, I don't think you realize, you have never
come close to taking my life away, you gave it to me."
A very confused Miss Parked asked, "What do you mean I gave your
life to you, and what do you mean that you are still alive because of me?"
"Miss Parker I am still alive because of you because when I was
younger they thought for sure I would go insane and that was what
the wanted for some insane reason. But I didn't. I didn't because I would
remember you and when you gave me my first kiss, I remember the
sweet, adventurous girl that was my best friend. You gave me a life
because you gave me your friendship; a little boy has no life if he
has no friends." Said Jarod, and Miss Parker knew that this was the
truth because she saw the same look she was so used to when they
were young.
"Jarod I, I… Jarod I don't know what to say."
"Andrea don't worry your eyes say it all." Jarod said, remembering
the first time she had told him her real name.
Miss Parker gasped, " You remember Jarod. You remember my real
name, no one knows my real name."
"Of course Andrea how could I forget? I would never forget the name
of my first love and only…" He stopped before he could finish the
statement knowing what it might do. There was silence and then…
"Jarod I… I love you." With that Jarod wrapped his arms around her
lifted her up and twisted her in circles.
"I love you Andrea Lincoln Parker, I will love you forever!" Said
Jarod full of love.
"Centre knows, Centre hears, Miss Parker and Angelo cant go back
for Centre knows, Centre hears. Baby can't go to Centre. Baby will be
hurt. Baby stays with Family." With that Angelo hands the baby to
Jarod.
As Angelo turned and starting going to the alley, Jarod stopped him
and said, "Angelo stay with me, don't go, you are my…"
"Angelo knows, Angelo knew since we were young." Said Angelo with
a smile on his face.
"How did you know?" Jarod asked very happy yet sad that Angelo
knew and never told him.
"Catherine Parker told me when I was young, when I was Timmy, that
is all I remember from the Days of Timmy." Angelo walked back to Miss
Parker and Jarod and gave them both a hug.
"Welcome to our family Angelo," said Miss Parker with a smile.
"Angelo how do you know that the Centre is listening?"
"They put a bug in Miss. Parker's coat." Angelo reached to behind
Miss Parkers coat and pulled out a bug. "They only put one though."
Back at the Centre in Mr. Parkers Office
6:30 pm
"Damn it they know. They know that Angelo and Jarod are brothers.
My damn wife betrayed me. I thought I was getting the good end of the
deal but no, my wife ended up being more of a hassle then she was
useful." Yelled Mr. Parker at Raines.
"Well it is not my fault, you are the one that promised she would be
no problem. You have screwed up too many times. She told Angelo
about him and Jarod and you promised that she was dead but no there is no
body in her grave. Someone knew we buried her alive and then they
unburied her. Catherine Parker is still alive, if Miss Parker, Jarod
and Catherine combine there forces then the Centre we know is
history, we will die, and the Centre will no longer be." Wheezed
Raines.
"Well it looks like we wont be hearing anymore of Jarod and Miss
Parker again." Said Mr. Parker in a quiet voice.
"No we will not hear from then again, I guess we can give up the hunt
for Jarod because he will not be needing to come back to the Centre
anymore since all three of them are gone. It was very unfortunate
that Sydney died in the crash about 8 and half months ago. Jarod
probably thinks we had something to do with it but in reality it was
just a freak accident, and Broots left about 9 months ago and changed
every piece of information about him and his daughter because he
had had enough of the Centre, so now there is no reason for Jarod to
come back to the Centre." Puffed an angry Mr. Raines.
Jarod's house
7:00pm
"Jarod what is this place? It is a very nice place." Commented Miss
Parker as she immediately fell in love with the house. She loved the
view of the small lake through the large Windows in the front of the
house.
"This is where I come when I want to get away. You know when I am
gone for weeks at a time, this is where I come. I come here to get
away and live a normal life. Well semi normal life. I have barbeques
with the other people on the lake and a group of them taught me how
to water-ski. It really isn't as hard as some people say it is. They
were all surprised how it came so naturally to me. When they ask me
what I do for a living I say I work as a cop and when I am here I
don't work at all because this is my break time. They all know me as
Jarod Sack. One of them calls me J-rod though. I love it out here, it
makes me feel like a normal person." Said Jarod as a smile crossed
his face.
"Angelo wants to stay, Can Angelo stay with Jarod, Miss Parker and
Baby?"
"Yes, Angelo can stay, only if he calls the baby by his real name,
which is Timothy Sydney Sack. People will call him Timmy though.
The name is ok right Andrea?"
"Of course, but know I have a question to ask because I think that
you and Angelo already know all of the answers, so here is the
question how are you guys brothers?" Asked parker desperate for the
answers.
" Well the answer is Mr. Raines raped my mother and Timmy is
produced, and I am very happy to have Angelo as my brother but I am
not happy that Mr. Raines is his father and I was never told. I have
a question of my own. Now I know you were out for about 8 months
so the baby is yours, but what I don't know is…" started Jarod.
"So far you are right, now sit down cause I know your next question,"
as Jarod walked over to the chair Miss Parker finished the
conversation." Well, at first I thought it was Lyle and that is what
I believed all the way until it was born. But when I look at the eyes
of the baby I automatically knew it was not Lyle's but it was yours.
The Eyes of this baby are your eyes Jarod and he has your smile
too."
And by the end of that sentence both Jarod and Miss Parker had
smiles on their faces. But then Jarod lost his in an instance.
"Why did you think it was Lyle at first and how is it mine?"
"Well you see it is your because Lyle injected me with your sperm or
something like that, if that is even possible, and I thought it was
Lyle's because one night Lyle followed me all the way to my car and
well he raped me."
"Oh my good Andrea, I am so sorry, if I knew I would have come to
see you immediately but I never knew. Andrea I am so sorry, please
forgive me, please, I never knew." Cried Jarod.
"Jarod it is not your fault you never knew, you could not have
stopped him. It is not your fault Jarod I love you. I will love you
forever." Unstoppable tears went rolling down her checks, she went
over to his side and hugged him and gave him a kiss that was nothing
like there first kiss but it was even better then that.
"Andrea Lincoln Parker I love you." With that they kissed again.
Meanwhile Angelo was outside talking to a man known as Bobby
Johnson.
Miss Parker and Jarod got deeper and deeper into their kiss, gasping
every once in a while for air, but then they were interrupted by
Angelo and Bobby as they walked in the door.
"J-rod buddy ole pal, you never told me about her. Or if I am not
mistaken your dream women with long legs and short leather skirts is
not quite a dream women."
"Well Bobby, you are right, she was not a dream women she is my
good friend Andrea Parker. We have known each other for about 30 years
but we got separated when we were about 20 years old. And I just found
her again." Said Jarod. " Bobby I would like you to meet Angelo, he
is my brother, and this is my friend Miss Parker. And this little
fellow is Timothy Sydney Sack. Timmy for short."
"Please call me Andrea."
"Nice to meet Andrea, Angelo and Timmy. Let me take a picture of
you and the baby, do I will have the first picture of you to." Requested
Bobby. "Jarod you never mentioned you had a brother or a baby."
"Well you see I just found out a couple of hours ago that he is my
brother, they kept it a secret from me for a very long time but I did
some searching and found out that he is my brother." Replied Jarod
knowing he had said a little too much when he saw the strange look
on Bobby's face.
"Who kept it a secret?" Asked Bobby a little afraid of the answer he
was going to get. Bobby knew that Jarod had been keeping many
secrets from him. Bobby had a talent to tell that when people were lying. He
was able to tell if it was a small lie or a big lie and one that
haunted a person's life. Now he didn't know what Jarod's big secret
was but he did know that Miss Parker was more than a friend and that
they had known each other for a very long time and some strange
things had gone on between them.
"Well, my parents did."
"You said you never knew your parents though. Jarod I know that you
had one hell of a messed up childhood but you will never feel better
if you don't try and fix it. And I also know that there is a lot more
going on between you and Andrea because I can sense it. Jarod just
tell me what happened and maybe I can help."
"Do you really want to know, if I told you it could put your life in
danger."
"Yes Jarod I want to help you. I want to help you get over his
problem of yours. I want to know."
"Ok here we go, in 1962 a corporation known as the Centre stole me
from my parents, they told me my parents died in a plane crash. I
never saw the outdoors. I lived in hell. It sucked. The only reason I
made it through my life was because of Andrea. She helped me get
through the terrible times. She even gave me my first kiss. Now that
was one of the highlights of this place." Miss Parker could feel
herself getting red and embarrassed. She had felt the same way
about her first kiss with Jarod.
"Why did they steel you? Is there something special about yourself?"
asked Bobby knowing this was going to a very interesting answer.
" Now you might not believe me when I say this but, I am a
pretender."
"What is a Pretender? Do you pretend to be different people?"
"You see I am a genius I can be anything I want to be. I help people
who have been treated unfairly. I really don't have a last name. I
just picked Sack out of a hat and that is what I told you my last
name was. You see Andrea and I have a really complicated
relationship. First we were best friends and we would always help
each other out. Then her father found out about our relationship and
he sent Andrea away. When she came back, no offense Andrea but
she was very mean, rotten almost as if she had no heart. She became
known as the ice Queen. It broke my heart when I found out she changed, I
couldn't handle it and I ran away. I escaped. Ever since I ran away
she has been chasing me. She even shot at me a couple of times. I
have also been searching for my family. I have a sister, a mom, a
dad, a brother, and Angelo, my newly found brother. Since I have
been out and on the run I have been a cop, a doctor, and FBI, everything
that you could think of. But now the rules of the game have changed.
Just a little while ago, they made Andrea pregnant with MY child,
Timmy. They are going to try and steel Timmy away from us unless
we stay hidden. I have owned this place for about 3 years and they never
even knew about it, so we are going to stay here. The rules have also
changed because now Andrea and I have come together and we are
going to protect Angelo and Timmy together."
"Andrea where are you tied in with the Centre? Why did you grow up
there?" asked bobby.
"Because my father runs the place, so I had to stay there. I was
forced to chase after Jarod because my father knew that if I were
gone Jarod would be gone. If I were always looking for Jarod, then
Jarod would never use his abilities to disappear completely. I also
have this special talent called the "inner sense." The inner sense is
kind of like people inside of me talking and tells me if something
bad will happen and it also has showed me the truth. They are like
hairs on the back of the neck except they talk to me." Miss Parker
was about to continue when Jarod interrupted.
"Bobby so do you understand what our life is like?"
"Yeah kind of. So let me see if I get why they used you two to make a
baby. They figure it will have the `inner sense' and it will be a
pretender like you. Right?"
"You got it. And Angelo here is special in his own way because he
can tell what people are feeling. Angelo and I are very good friends. He
knows where I am and what I am doing all of the time. Angelo, Parker
and I have been friends since we were very young we were like the
three musketeers. That is our life pretty much." Said Jarod as a
small chuckle came out because he amused by the look on Bobby
face.
"Wow I am really sorry you guys your life most of sucked."
"Well tomorrow I am going to have a barbeque so everyone can meet
the friends and family. Can you get the word around for me?" asked
Jarod.
"O yeah sure no problem. But everyone knows when you arrive and
you always have a barbeque the day after you get back here so they will
already know you will be having one. Come on Jarod you are the only
one that goes swimming in the middle of the night all the time like
you never went swimming when you were young." After he said that
Bobby laughed to himself. "Well I guess you swim like that cause you
never did go swimming when you were young now did you."
"No I didn't, but I did do a simulation on time where I had to rescue
someone from the water." Stated Jarod so he wouldn't sound that out
of the loop.
"What is a simulation? Wait never mind forget I asked." Laughed
Bobby as he was walking out the door. "O Jarod we have a new person on
the lake, well not really new he came to the lake the day after you left,
which was about 8 months ago. He also has this old man with him
and they had worked together for about five 3 years I think it was. He
lives a couple doors down from you. He said he and his daughter had
been having a rough life and he wanted to get away from his old life.
I don't know kind of weird but not as weird as you, you know what I
mean."
"Yes, Bobby I know what you mean. But tell the new people to come
too; I would like to meet them." Replied Jarod.
11:30 pm
Jarod's house
"Jarod are you going to bed yet? It has been a very long day and I
want you to be well rested for the barbeque tomorrow." Said Parker
from the bedroom.
"Well first I have to go swimming so the people now I am here. It
will be the only way they find out I am here." Replied Jarod with a
smug grin on his face. "Why don't you come with me? It would be the
first time a women is out there swimming with me."
Miss Parker getting wonderful thought in her mind just smiled and
said "I would love to."
With that Jarod walked over picked her up and walked down to the
water. The walked down a small hill and talked. Running down the
dock with her in her arms they jumped off the dock with all of their
cloths on. While laughing and yelling and having a good time a few
lights turned on and every once in a while you would hear a person
yell out load, "Jarod glad your back!"
"Jarod I am getting tired swimming with all my cloths on. Hold on a
sec. Let me take some off"
"I would wait an entire lifetime to hear and see you do that." While
she was taking her cloths off he was getting down to his boxers and
didn't see hear as she jumped off the dock in to the water. "Hey I
didn't see what you were wearing." Jarod complained as she swam
over to him and gave him a hug. "But I can certainly tell now. I love you
Miss Parker. I love you with all my heart and soul Andrea Lincoln
Parker."
"And I love you Jarod Sack. Hey what is your middle name?"
"I don't know yet. What do you think Andrea?"
"I think your name should be Jarod Angelo Sack."
"I love it. I will be Jarod Angelo Sack if you Andrea will be my
light, if you will be my fire, if you will be my love, if you will be
my wife. Andrea Lincoln Parker will you marry me?"
"Jarod I will marry you." And with that the were kissing and making
there way up to the bedroom. With Angelo in the guest Bedroom in
the basement Jarod and Miss Parker were free to do whatever they want
to, for as long as they wanted.
Jarod's Barbeque
1:00 PM (next day)
"Hey J-rod this is the new…"
"Broots and Debbie! How are you guys, Sydney I thought you died?
How could you? I was divested when I heard you were died. How could
you do that you were like a father, and then you say you die, How could
you Sydney?"
"Jarod I am so sorry. I didn't know it would hurt you that much."
"What you think I would just rub it off? Of course not Sydney! You
were the only person I thought of as a father. Sydney don't you think
I have had enough pain in my life. You couldn't even leave the
smallest clue?"
"Jarod, please forgive me. It is just I thought you would never
forgive me after all I have done to you. I lied to you about your
parents. I threw away your card. I thought you would never forgive
me. I tried to be as much like a father to you as possible. I always
wanted to be your father. But I couldn't, I couldn't let the Centre
know how I felt about you. If they found out they would have given
you over to Raines. I thought I was doing the best thing for you.
Jarod please forgive me. Can you give me one more chance as being
your father?" Sydney was about to cry. He had never told Jarod the
truth about how he felt about him and he a fear went sorrowing
through him saying he had wanted to long. But that fear all
disappeared the moment Jarod went sorrowing over to him and giving
him a hug.
"Sydney. I am sorry it is just that I thought you had died. I was
afraid I would have no one to look up to. Sydney, please, please
belike a father to me. I used to always look up to you and I still
do. Sydney you are just as important to me as Miss Parker and
Angelo are. Sydney never leave me again, do you promise?"
Jarod was showing pain and happiness in his eyes, he wanted
Sydney to be his father so badly but Sydney would never accept the fact. Jarod
wished Sydney would say yes. Say yes to all of his questions, but he
was afraid Sydney would not say yes to everyone of them.
"Jarod, I will never leave you again and I promise I will be the best
father like figure ever."
"Thank you Sydney."
"Hey J-rod, it might not be my business, but I am going to ask you
anyways. What if your father is still out there? You used to talk
about how you were always searching for him. What if you find him?
What are you going to do?" Asked Bobby. At that instance everyone
had a sad look on their faces. No one knew what to say. There was
silence everyone was thinking. Then finally Jarod spoke up.
"Well, to tell you the truth…"
One week ago at the DC hospital
As I run across the Hospital to the entrance were a new patient was
coming in, wondering to myself if I should help him or go, I quickly
decide I should help. Then I looked at his face. I grabbed his hand
and cried. I could feel the looks I was getting weird looks, all of
the doctors and nurses starring at me as they saw me crying in his
hands. I do not care. I knew he was going to die; all I could do was
cry that was all I knew how to do at the moment. I couldn't speak,
and I could barely walk. I was crying like a long lost baby who
almost found his way home. As he looked into my eyes he spoke.
" Jarod I was never there for you, forgive me my son, I have been
searching all of my life to find you, and when I do it is in the last
few minutes of my life. I love you Jarod. Please, please tell me that
you will find your mother and tell her I love her. I haven't seen her
in months; I have been hot on your tail for so long but always a step
behind you and The Centre. I am sorry I let them take you from our
family when you were young. I will always be looking out for you my
son." Major Charles said.
" Dad don't worry I will love you forever. You were there for me
always in my dreams even though I never meet you." I paused quickly
then, all I could think of asking was, "Dad what is my real name?"
It was too late.
Present Day
"The doctors had to pull me away from him. I couldn't let go. He was
the second person in my life to die, or so I thought. I didn't know
what to do. My life was cloudy, so confusing. I had no one to look up
to. I thought I had no one. But then you all showed up. I just wish
he could come back to see me right now with my family and friends."
Jarod cried. Miss Parker rushed to his side just holding him
whispering "don't worry I am here for you, and I always will be."
There was silence for about 1 minute the Miss Parker spoke again.
"Jarod I am so sorry. You never got to have a real conversation with
your father." There was another moment of silence but then Miss
Parker spoke again, "But Jarod, what about Jay, your clone? Who is
he
with? What did you do with him?"
"Miss Parker settle down. I know you had a strong relationship with
him, because I stole the DSA of you and him talking. I have every
single DSA about Jay. Miss Parker you have to trust me, but I can't
tell you yet. When the time is right I will explain it all to you.
But don't worry you will be able to see him whenever you want in a
couple of weeks." Explained Jarod. This statement confused
everyone. No one knew what to do or say because Jarod would normally tell
them all right away. But this time he didn't. "Miss Parker I think it is
about time we shared our secret with everyone. Would you like to tell
them, or shall I?"
"I will. Sydney, Broots, Debbie, and Bobby. Jarod and I are going to
get married. Out of all the names we could have chosen for our last
name, we choose Sack because everyone on this lake knows Jarod
with the last name Sack. We are now Mr. and Mrs. Jarod Angelo Sack. We
already have our son as you all know and his name is Timothy
Sydney Sack." Miss Parker smiled as everyone was shocked yet very happy
for them. No one every new that they would come together, no one
imagined with the lives the used to have it was not even an idea that had ever
popped up. "Hey Jarod can I talk to you for a second in the house?"
"Yeah, of course, I will be right in I need to quickly tend to the
grill and then I will be in." As Jarod was walking towards the grill
Sydney was talking with Broots.
"Broots, was it the right thing for me to do, to tell Jarod I would
be his father?" Sydney was afraid he did the wrong thing. He did not
want to hurt Jarod. He did not want to cause Jarod any more trouble
because he caused enough for Jarod already.
"Syd, don't worry. It was the right thing to do. If you did not,
Jarod would have been devastated. You have always been like a
father to Jarod. If you reject his request for you to be his father then he
might not have been able to forgive you for keeping him locked up all
those years. It was the right thing to do. Don't worry Sydney."
Replied Broots. This was the first time for Broots that he felt 100%
sure about what he had just said, he was positive he was doing the
right thing.
Meanwhile inside with Jarod and Miss Parker
"Andrea, you can't be serious. You know I have always wanted this.
You can't say no now. Can you?" He asked afraid she would be able
to say yes, and ruin his dreams and hopes for their future.
"Jarod, I have to go back. With or without you, I am going to go back
to the Centre and I am going to do what they did to us. I am going to
make their lives horrible. If you help me we can do it with ease. You
know that. I found out on my own; that the main reason I was shipped
off to school was because if you and I got to close we could take
down the Centre. We could take it down without a struggle."
"Miss Parker you are wrong. I ran into someone the other day and she
explained it all to me. She said that is what we were made to think.
But that was only a lie, they told us a lie in which we both believed
for many years."
"Yeah Jarod, what women did you run into that knows so much about
the Centre? Who was it, my mother?" She said with complete sarcasm.
"And before you answer that you have to stop calling me Miss Parker. I am
soon to be your wife. Call me Andrea. OK?"
"All right. Well since we are about to be husband and wife, I have to
give you our engagement ring." He tried to change the subject. He
scurried off around the corner and returned back with a small blue
box. Andrea realized the box immediately. It was the same box that
held her Grandmother's silver engagement ring. "Andrea, I can tell
you remember this box, and I just made a promise with your mother
and I said I would give you this ring as our engagement ring. Andrea,
will except this ring as a token of our promise to love and to
respect each other for as long as we live?"
"I do." With that Jarod slowly placed the ring on her finger and then
they made eye contact. The connection of their eyes and the love they
saw in the others eyes, erased all of the possible doubts that were
rolling around in their heads about getting married. Jarod picked up
Andrea and they kissed and held each other until Broots interrupted
them.
"Oh, sorry guys, I was just coming to tell you that the food is ready
to be eaten. I will go back outside and let you guys finish up." Said
Broots who was very embarrassed.
"Broots don't worry about it. You make it sound as if we had just
started something," replied Andrea while giving Jarod an elbow to the
gut.
"Yea, really Broots it is fine we were just about to go into the
bedroom until you came in." Jarod laughed at the look of shock on
Broots' face. "Broots don't worry we were only joking we were about
to come outside anyways. Or at least I was because I am starving."
As Broots walked out, shortly followed by Jarod and Miss Parker
everyone started to clap for Jarod and Andrea because the news
spread
quickly throughout the crowd that they were going to get married.
Three Days Later
"Do you Jarod Angelo Sack take Andrea Lincoln Parker to be your
wife, to love and to cherish her until death do you part?"
"I do"
"Do you Andrea Lincoln Parker take Jarod Angelo Sack to be your
wife, to love and to cherish her until death do you part?"
"I do"
"I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the
bride."
With that Jarod picked her up and kissed her, as they walked down
the isle to the limo waiting for them to take them back to Jarod's house.
On the way there the talked and talked.
"Jarod, do you think you can tell me where we are going for our
honeymoon?" Asked a very antsy miss parker.
"Not yet. But I will tell you it will be wonderful weather, nice and
warm, not hot but warm."
Arriving to the 1000 islands
"Jarod, I love it here. I remember when we were young and I said that
I always wanted to take you to the 1000 islands because they were so
pretty. I remember having a dream when I was young, you and I were
free and we were having a vacation on the 1000 islands. I guess it
was a vacation but a honeymoon. I love it here Jarod. But do we
really have to go back in five days?"
"Yes we do, but lets not think of that yet. We have a long time
before that day comes around."
As they walked through the doors of there rented house Andrea
gasped
at how beautiful it was. "I love it here Jarod. This was the perfect
place for the honeymoon. Jarod I love you. I can't wait to have a
family of 5 with you. Five is a good number right?" Andrea asked.
"Five is exactly what I was thinking. It is a perfect number. When
should we get started with this family though?" He asked eyeing the
bedroom with a sly smile on his face.
"I don't know I think I should make you wait and torture you for a
little while first."
"Wrong answer," he yelled as he ran to her, picked her up and carried
her to the bedroom. "Wrong answer Andrea, I think we should start
now."
With that the fell into a deep and passionate kiss which lead to many
other things.
Five Days later at Jarod's house
"Broots, you sure Jarod said she would be here today?"
"Positive, he sent me a copy of the email he sent to her. I doubt
that Jarod would ever do suck a thing like that if she really was
going to be here. I never knew her but I am sure she was far to kind
and special to ever play a trick like that with her memory. Everyone
has such a wonderful memory of her is what I gather."
"You are right Jarod would never do something like that. He is far
too smart, far too special. I love the young man he was always so
kind to Andrea."
"It really is you isn't?" Exclaimed Sydney as he ran over and gave
her a hug. "I have missed you so much! I thought, I thought."
"No Sydney, I was fine all along." She replied knowing what he was
going to say. "And you must be Broots. When I first saw Jarod he
talked so much about you. He said you were very important to
Andrea.
Even though she picked on you, you must know that you are very
important to her. I am very happy to finally meet you."
"Wow, you look the same as you do in all the pictures I have seen of
you. I am very glad to meet you. I can't wait to see the look on
Miss. Parker's face, or should I say Mrs. Sack's face when she meets
you."
" Jay is that you? I am so happy to see you"
"I am glad to see you to Mrs. Sack. Mrs. Sack, right? No more Miss
Parker?"
"Right"
"Hey Jay how are you?"
"Good Jarod and yourself?"
"Excellent"
"Mom!! Is that really you? I thought you were died?"
"Andrea calm down. At first I thought I was going to be. But Major
Charles saved my life."
"He did?" Andrea and Jarod asked together.
"Yes he did. Mr. Parker and Raines buried me alive but Major Charles
followed them because he knew I was in danger. He followed the two
men and he found them burring me alive them he immediately
unburied me when they left. I am alive today because of your father Jarod."
"Wow this is the happiest day of my life." Smiled miss Parker. I have
found of two of the most enjoyable news I am ever going to get."
"Andrea what do you mean two most enjoyable pieces of news?"
Jarod asked knowing the answer.
"Well for starters I found my mother. And second in nine months we
are going to have two child Jarod."
"I love you Andrea, with all my heart I love you."
"I love you too Jarod. More than you will ever know."
