CHAPTER TWO
NOBADY'S HOME
She wants to go home
But nobady's home
There she lays
Broken inside
Tom and his new partner Diana were sitting at the big table and looking at the files of the 4400. Through out the week they were realisted a lot of them foond out about "gifts" they had. It was strange and the fact that Kyle and Shawn were two of the 4400 didn't help a lot.
"I'm looking at file of this girl Maia. She's 8 years old and she is one of the first ones to be abdicted. I just don't get it? Why?" Diana asked and dropped the file angerly. It was strange for Tom to work with someone new on this, but he couldn't help himself he trusted her.
"I know what you meen." He rubed his neck. "I'm looking at Shwan and Kyle all day waiting for second head to came up or something." It was bizzare and not so funny, but bouth of them laughed.
"So...How are they?" Diana asked while sipping some coffee.
"Here and there. I know it soundes strange, but I'm glad they went through it together. Tom answered smiling.
"It doesn't sound strange, just human. What about Amy?"
"She and Shawn are so close. I can't ask them anything personal. They don't need someone they can trust, they allready have eachother."Tom said sounding a little more tired
"There's allways place for one more persone you can trust." Diana looked at Tom with a smile.

Amy was at the park all alone. It was time for school, but she had enough of staring for past week. She was looking at kids playing, couples kissing and she couldn't help but feel alone. Yes, she had mom, Susan, Kyle and of course Shwan, but they were trying to make her feel normal again. Esspecially mom and Susan, they were acting like she was there for past three years. And Shwan and Kyle... they needed to deal with themselves. She was glad she and Nikki picked up were they left off. It was good to have some girl talks.
"Amy, Amy..." She heared her name being called and she looked up, seeing blond girl of 8 years.
"Maia..."She said while hugging her. "What are you doing here?" Amy asked with a smile. She was glad she was seeing her again. Maia was great kid.
"Diana brought me to play. She says I need to start acting like a kid more." Amy laughed and smiled at Diana who was coming nearer.
"Hi Amy, it's nice to see you again."
"You, too." It wasn't a lie. Diana was one of reare people Amy felt comfortable with and she wasn't one of the 4400.
"So, you are taking care of Maia now."
"Just for a wail, but she keeps saying it's gonna be longer." Amy smiled at that. If Maia said that it was proboblly true.
"You've been looking in a future again." Amy said to Maia who couldn't help but smile.
"Just a little." She said and run off.
"Maia, be carefull." Diana yelled.
"She allways is." Diana sent Amy a warm smile and set next to her.
"Why aren't you with your family.They proboblly missed you a lot."
"Sometimes I'm not sure." Amy said with a faint smile. "I feel so alone when I'm with them in our house. I feel like I don't belog there." Amy said with a teary voce.
"Give yourself some time." Diana said while putting comforting hand on hers.
Amy just smiled.

Kyle was sitting with his parents, who were pretending that everzthing is OK and that they are happy together. Like he couldn't guees. He knew they were thinking the best but they weren't helping him a lot.
"More salad?" His mom asked and he couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"You asked that allready...like 100 times." Tom couldn't help but laugh and for moment everything felt normal again. But then again that was just a moment.
"You two are acting stupid. I can see you are not living together or whatever. So stop acting like idiotes and tell me."
In some way Tom was glad Kyle noticed. He was trying to find a way to tell him.
"Don't be stupid..." Linda started, but Tom looked at her and stoped talking and bent her head down trying to mask her sadness. Kyle smiled at that. Dad was allways man of action. He was brave and allways trying to do the right thing and right now he loved him for that. Not that he didn't love him all the time.
"It's true Kyle. We're getting a divorce. We just thought..." He trailed off.
"I know, I know... But it doesn't help me to don't know what's going on. I allready don't know where I were for two years, so pleace... just don't lie to me." He said sounding tired and sad.
"And I'm the one who's supposed to act strange, by the way." Kyle continuied with a laugh trying to easy situation. Tom smiled and Linda put her hand on her sons.
"We will allways be there for you." She said with a warm smile. "You know how much we love you and how much we missed you."
"I know the speech mom, but it's nice to heare it anyway. I'm just glad I know were I stand right now." But he still wasn't sure were that was. he felt like he was a burden to them.
"On the same place you allways did. With parents who love you were much." Linda said and the only thing that was on his mind was why this words didn't help him a lot.
A\N: HATE IT, LIKE IT? TELL ME!
