Prologue
Robert Castellanos was a unique person. A brave, smart individual with a can-do attitude, he was never afraid to take on a challenge.
As a United States Navy Sailor, he traveled to many places around the world as his orders took him everywhere, Japan, Singapore, Hawaii, the Persian Gulf and even China.
As a result of his travels, he made many friends in many places. One day, just after being honorably discharged, he moved to a medium-sized Eastern Colorado town called Middleton, known for being the hometown of a certain famous red-headed heroine and her blond-haired boyfriend.
He had always dreamed of living on the coastline, but that would have to wait. His house ended up being across the street from Kim's house.
Two days after moving, Robert befriended to famous duo, as well as some of their friends.
Sometimes, Robert could swear that a couple of his new female friends were flirting with him!
Robert got a job as an aerospace technician at the Middleton Space Center, a job that he enjoyed.
However, he still longed for the excitement of naval aviation, but felt that now was not yet the time.
Every other weekend he had off, he would drive out to watch the planes taking off and landing from the airport. Other times, he would practice at the local shooting range.
Robert spent two years in Middleton, after which he finally had the money for a house in a scenic California coastal city called Heatherfield, which was located one hundred fifty miles northwest of Los Angeles.
He and his friends estimated that the drive would take two days, and that he might not be able to visit often. Robert quit his job at the space center and prepared for his move.
The next morning, he started packing his belongings and was nearly finished by that evening.
