Reckless Endangerment

Chapter 11th

Amanda was having a hard time trying to rest with her mind thinking too much of her husband Lee somewhere in Frankfurt, Germany. Her mother Dottie had come in for a little while to sit with her trying to comfort her daughter going through hell with the delivery and the nightmare of her husband missing.

A nurse had come in to check in with the Amanda to see if she needed anything. Other than the fact a meal was going to be brought in with being hungry and thirsty. Dottie wasn't going to stay long as stated when she came in. However she did asked on whether she could help with the tray.

"No mother I will be fine. Please go already. I will like to be alone for awhile at least." she stated with anger in her tone for the most part.

"Alright darling I will go now and let you eat and get some sleep at least. "she said calmly trying not to upset her daughter.

Amanda watched Dottie leave with moving over her food tray with her orange juice, water and hot coffee if she wanted to drink it with all of the essentials. They had given her scrambled eggs, potatoes, toast and some fruit for now.

She had started to dig in into the food. When she felt the twinge below from the hard delivery. Taking a moment to relax and exhaling. She was beginning to feel better...

Frankfurt Germany

Sister Mary Lou Andrews was waiting for them. When she had noticed Lee and the other two coming over to her. She was sitting in the garden praying with her rosaries. Picking up her head to see Lee's painful eyes. She felt bad for him for the most part.

"I am so sorry Lee for your troubles. I am just glad that you were able to find your friends and lead me to here. Please come to my quarters I will give you the file. Tell me something how did you know it was me in the first place?" she asked with the seriousness of the question.

"I was drugged. I kept on having flashbacks mostly and the last one was of you. Even though I had no idea what your name was at the time." Lee replied with following the nun out of the courtyard to the quarters down the hall.

Using her key to her quarters while not letting one else inside while needing her privacy. She moved inside with turning on the lights inside and walking over to her bottom draw of the dresser that was taped underneath to be smart mostly.

Removing it from underneath with the tape. She had handed it to Lee for viewing for the moment. While Robert and Francine were watching in case of an attack.

"It's all here Francine." Lee responded with placing it into his pants pocket. But instead Francine had taken it with Lee somewhat surprised. "Why" he asked with annoyance in his tone of voice and demeanor.

"Orders from Billy. Once we were able to find the file. We are to try it ourselves with taking the file to the Embassy. Since most or all of the enemy agents don't know us since retiring and going into the Witness Protection Program." she responded with Lee understanding it right now.

Lee turns to the nun. "Thanks for all of your help sister. Just be sure that no ones approaches you in regard to asking about the file. You can always call Billy again for some type of protection." Lee said with the nun feeling better and with praying for the three before leaving the convent.

"I will Lee since I have saved the number. I will be sure to be extremely careful with anyone approaching me. God bless the both of you with getting home safely." she stated with extreme emotion and handing another pray of her rosaries to be given to Lee.

Moments later they were outside the convent heading for their vehicle to try and drive on over to the embassy finally to drop off the file. Though Lee still feels a little uneasy with the entire situation.

"Now what Francine?" Lee asked not sure of anything right now.

"Embassy to drop off the file and than catch a flight home to your wife Amanda." Robert replied ...

"OMG! I have forgotten all about Amanda and the baby. I don't even know on whether she delivered or not?" he asked with concern with getting inside the vehicle and Robert handing him a phone to call long distance.

"Don't worry no one will be able to trace the call Lee. I have no idea on whether Billy is at home, his office or elsewhere?" Robert announced with turning on the engine with the keys given by the rental...

UNITED STATES...Time 9.30 a.m.

Billy had arrived back from the hospital after quickly visiting Amanda and the baby Nathan in the nursery. Sitting down in his chair with his black hot coffee. He was able to relax finally with all of the running around he was doing...

Moments later his cell phone was going off not knowing who the caller might be so he answered it. "This is Billy Melrose of IFF. How can I help you?" he asked evenly with his tone of voice.

"Billy it's Lee. Robert and Francine were able to find me. I will explain further later on what happened. We have the file and we are going to turn it in to the embassy." he replied with emotion...

"Hey man! We were all worried Lee especially Amanda." Billy had to say without giving it away that she had the baby.

"Listen Billy I need to know before I hang up on whether or not Amanda had the baby?" he asked finally with concern in his tone of voice.

"Yes, she did and I am not going to tell you until you get here tomorrow. She is going to be really surprised Scarecrow.I do hope that Robert and Francine are fine as well?"

"They are Billy and happy as a lark to have me in there vehicle. Now we need to make sure on whether or not the Chinese agents don't get in our way again." he responded with telling Billy that he is going to be seeing him soon.
