2 Months Later

Janie walked into her kitchen, ready to make her afternoon call to her brother. She had talked to him on the phone nearly every night, getting the run down of how things were after her leaving. She knew Dave had been shipped back to SmackDown before he was even brought back to Raw. It was odd how so much had transpired in such little time.

"Hey bro. What are you doing?" she asked, as she heard his labored breathing from the other end of the phone.

"I'm in the gym. How's everything back home?" he asked.

"I guess as good as cane be expected. I mean, I'm managing, I guess."

"Well, you keep doing that. How's Mom?"

"She misses you. She is already talking about plans for this Christmas and what she is getting Aurora and the new baby."

"Well, that's mom for ya. Does she know it's a girl yet?"

"No. I figured it would be a surprise for when we are all together. She'll eat it up with a spoon knowing she'll have two granddaughters."

"Yeah, she will."

There was a long pause on the phone for a minute. Janie wanted to ask him the question she had during every phone call, but every time she asked, Paul got a little more and more agitated with her. She just was wanting to know. She needed to know.

"So..." she said.

"So what?" he asked.

"How's...Randy?"

"Janie..." he said with a sigh. "Why must you ask these questions? You went away to take care of yourself. You have enough on your plate right now. You don't need to be worrying about anyone else."

"I know, Paul. But, it's nice to know how the love of my life is doing."

"And what do I tell you every time?"

"He's doing fine and he's happy." she mocked him.

"Exactly. Listen, I've gotta be getting off here, but I'll call you later after the show, alright?"

"Alright bro. Take care. Love ya."

"Love you, too."

As she clicked her phone shut, she slammed it on the table, wanting to know more. She needed to know more and her sitting around the house was making her go stir crazy. She was never one to just sit around and after 2 months, she was almost on the verge of depression.

She needed to get out of the house and get back into the swing of things. She knew her brother and Shawn for the matter wouldn't like it, but she didn't care. She figured if anything else, it would be an eventful trip of seeing her brother and niece. And possibly even Randy.

Even if she shouldn't have been thinking about him, that's all her mind would allow her to do. She should have been worried about her own well being, but after leaving and not even being able to tell him good bye, it was a bitter pill to swallow. At least a good bye would have been better than up and leaving. He probably thought bad things about her. She was sure of it. She was sure he thought she didn't want to be with him; let alone be around him.

It was the furthest thing from the truth, but how was he suppose to know. She couldn't quite wrap her mind around what he might have been thinking. She still loved him more than anything. The distance only proved that for her. She needed him even more.

She had tried calling him more than once, but it all ended up the same way. Either she started to call and hung up before sending the call completely through or she waited until it rung before she would disconnect it. It was childish and immature but she couldn't bring herself to actually talk to him. Not right now.

It was something she would have to look into, but she knew sooner, rather than later, she would be booking that plane ticket to a show just to see him. Just so she knew he was alright. So her own two eyes could see that.
