Sorry this took so long to update. I've been really busy lately. Anyway, here's chapter two.

Jay pulled in the Mobil gas station at three in the morning. It was too bad he lived so far apart from his parents. He walked inside to get a cup of coffee while the gas was pumping.

The man running the register paid little attention to most people going in and out, but seeing Jay in his funky pajamas perked him up.

"What's a fellow like you doing driving at this hour?" He grunted.

"I'm on my way to visit family," Jay yawned.

Meanwhile, the buzzing in Nya's pajama pant pocket shook her awake, "Hello," she said groggy, "This is?"

"It's Kai. Sorry to wake you sis. I was just wondering if anything was wrong. I never got a call back from you about if it's a boy or girl."

"That's because the appointment isn't until next week. There is something wrong though. I'll wait until Jay comes back then let him explain. In the meantime, how's Hawaii been?"

"It's been okay for the most part. I had a run in with the law though."

"What happened?" Nya asked full of concern.

"It's a long story. I don't want to keep you awake."

"You won't be keeping me awake. Jay and I are on the way to Ed and Edna's."

When Jay got back to the car, Nya was on the phone, "Well, Jay's here. I'll put him on," Nya handed her phone to Jay. It's Kai, she mouthed.

"Hey Kai, what's up?"

Isabelle got up at six when her parents were discussing where to stop for breakfast. Nya sighed and shifted around in her seat to hand Isabelle a picture book to look at. They should have packed more before they left.

"The only restaurants even open at this hour are some old burger joint and Chen's noodles," Nya read off of her phone.

"Chen's Noodles it is!"

Aside for a few business men coming in for breakfast before work, the place was practically empty.

Jay, Nya, and Isabelle had no issue finding a seat, however it took forever for the waitress to come and take their order.

When someone finally arrived, both Jay and Nya were surprised to see Skylor there.

"Hey, Skylor. What are you doing here? I thought you usually worked at the one north of here."

"Usually. This campus is e business, so I came down here to check things out. How's Kai been? I haven't heard much from him since he left for Hawaii last month."

"That's because him and Lloyd ran into each other and wound up spending the last three weeks in a holding cell," Nya chuckled. (Full story to this coming soon!)

"Oh, well, what would you like to eat?"

Two hours later, they met Edna on the front porch. She was in nothing but her pajamas, and obviously shivering in the snow.

"I'm so glad you're here!" Edna exclaimed.

"Mom, what's going on? Does he still not remember you?" Jay asked full of concern.

"I don't know. He woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't remember who I was. He called me an intruder and told me to get out before he killed me. I think it's true. The doctor's coming this afternoon, but there's no doubt that he has Alzheimer's." Edna sobbed.

Any glimpse of hope Jay had was gone. How could this happen? Would it happen to him too?

Before Jay could say anything, he felt Nya putting her arm around his shoulder, "just trust God, okay?"

That's that. Hope you all enjoyed. I'll have a new story posted sometime before the new year about Kai's mishap vacation after his cousin, that's me by the way, sends him to Hawaii because she decided she tortures him too much in her stories and he needs a break. But, we all know he won't be getting one!
