CHAPTER 11
"You just gotta believe me!" pleaded Charity. "If you don't find her soon, you are going to lose her forever this time. Sheridan needs you Luis, evil is out to hurt her again. You have to find her and save her before she is really gone forever" Charity said. "Luis? Are you listening to me?"
Luis looked at Charity with total disbelief in his eyes. He could not understand how Charity would know about the inscription in Sheridan's compact. No one, except him and Sheridan, knew about the inscription. Unless, what Charity was saying was true... But then again...how could he believe her? He was afraid to get his hopes up yet again and have it crushed.
"Charity...." Luis began "As much as I would love to believe you, god, if only it were true. I would move heaven and earth to find her. But I can't deny all the evidence, Sheridan is dead and she's never coming back to me. I think your premonitions are getting the better of you."
Charity shakes her head. "No Luis you can't be saying this. She's alive and she's in danger. And if you're not going to help her then....." Suddenly out of the corner of her eyes, Charity sees a familiar figure hurrying towards them. With a sudden jerk of her heart, Charity dashes away from Luis and runs towards the trees.
What was that all about Luis thought to himself. What could make Charity turn white as a ghost and then dash away. A second later, Luis understands everything.
BERMUDA
"Brian! Liz! Wait up, I have wonderful news!" Sheridan shouted as she ran towards her friends. In her haste to share her new found knowledge, she neglected to notice the rock in front of her. As a result, Sheridan tripped and started to fall. Just as she was about to fall flat in her face and make a total fool of herself, Sheridan was yet again saved by Brian.
"Whoa there little lady!" Brain jokingly said "You're gonna hurt yourself one of these days. You know I can't save you all the time!" he laughed.
"Oh Thank you so much Brian! I can't believe I missed that rock! Thanks for saving me yet again. How many times has it been now?" Sheridan asked "Way too many to count pretty lady" Brian answered with a smile.
Brain suddenly gets serious and starts to caution Sheridan with her carelessness. "Diana! You gotta watch out for yourself. You could have really hurt yourself. I don't want to lose you now, just when I found you."
"Oh Brain! You worry too much"
Liz just laughed as she watched the two poke fun at each other. With a laugh, Liz asked Sheridan what she wanted to tell them that was so important that caused her to forget where she was.
Diane proceeds to tell Liz and Brian about her encounter with the little boy and the strange maternal feelings she had while holding the little fella.
HARMONY
"So what is it that you wanted to tell me Kay?" Simone asked
Kay looked at her best friend and contemplated whether to tell Simone the whole truth or whether to make up yet another lie to satisfy her friend=s curiosity. Kay knew that Simone did not necessarily approve of all the schemes that Kay has done over the last few years to snag Miguel; however, she must admit that Simone had always remain a true and loyal friend, never once betraying her to the others, not even when Kay sold her soul to the witch Hecuba.
Simone waited patiently for Kay to tell her the "BIG" secret that she hiding. Truth be told, she was a bit nervous about what Kay was about to tell her. Simone knew that deep down Kay was a good person, albeit a bit misguided; and that she loved Miguel; however, Simone knew that Kay was a very selfish person. Look at what she did to poor Charity. Not only did she try to 'kill' her several times, she tried to make the poor girl crazy.
Thinking of Charity makes Simone a bit guilty. She knew that she was the one person who could have verified Charity's story that Kay was out to get her and that she had purposely impregnant herself in order to get Miguel, the love of her live.
But alas, Simone had just stood there and stared just like the rest.
Sometimes, Simone wished that she had spoken up, then all the lies and manipulations would have been over; however, because of friendship bonds and loyalty, Simone had remained quiet while everyone told Charity that she was crazy to think that Kay would have a mean streak in her body. Even Jessica, much to the surprise of Kay and Simone, had spoken up in defense of her older sister.
Charity had finally conceded that she wasn't thinking straight and decided that it was best that she leave town and everyone behind it, including Miguel, much to the delight of Kay and dismay of Miguel.
"Simone! Remember you promise never to tell anyone about what I am going to tell you. O.K.?" Simone nodded her head in agreement.
"Simone. The baby I am carrying..................well.........its not......uhm...I don't necessarily know how to say it to you, so I'll better just tell you straight out............the baby's not ............... the baby's not .................. Miguel's!"
Simone, as well as Whitney, gasped in astonishment
