"May I help you??" I asked the lady.
"Ummm…maybe you can…I'm looking for John Matthews…I was told I could find him here" the lady responded.
I could swear my face dropped to the ground. I held her finger up and left for a moment. When I finally came back I had gained composure and forced my self to talk cheery.
"Sorry about that, I don't know who you're talking about"
"You sure because you acted like you did."
"I'm sorry I really don't know who you're talking about. We've never heard of him."
"Oh…" The lady turned and walked out the door.
Shoot I know who that lady is now…this isn't good…is not that good…" JERRY!!"
"Honey I'm busy!!"
Pacing back and forth, there was no way to tell the kids this. They were at school. Maybe Mrs. Anne won't come back here. No She has to stay away. Jerry and I will just have to go and talk to her personally…Oh Gosh Oh Gosh this isn't good.
"Honey what is it??"
Max, Alex and Justin walked in from school that day.
"I'll tell you later." I replied keeping my voice low.
Busily I began cleaning the counter.
"Hey Mom" Alex called.
My dear lovely Alex. She better not ever have to find this out. Of course she could be thrilled.
Okay so this chapter is a little scrambled up. I had an idea for the lady and then I changed it…Sorry…Again 3 chapter reviews and I'll update…Thanks!!
