Chapter •14•

{Peyton}I just got back to work and I walk into the Vet Clinic and I walk to the exam room to see Rowan sitting on the blanket that was still on the floor playing with the puppy I stand there in the doorway watching Rowan playing with the puppy she's laughing and smiling oh her laugh is so beautiful just like she is but then I hear her say something that caught me off guard she said

{Rowan}I think I'm falling in love with Peyton he is so sexy and those eyes of his are so dreamy I could just stare at those eyes for the rest of my life and let's not forget he's an amazing kisser

{Peyton}I clear my throat which makes Rowan look up so I smile I walk over to her and sit on the blanket with her so how's our girl doing?

{Rowan}I smile at Peyton and then I look down at the puppy she seems to be doing better, so how are your daughters?

{Peyton}They are good they are back with my parents I'm keeping them home tomorrow

{Rowan}That's good

{Peyton}Yeah it is, hey do you happen to know who the principle of Prince Charles Public School is?

{Rowan}Yes I actually do it's my brother

{Peyton}Do you happen to have his number so I can call him and tell him that Josephine and Julie won't be going to school tomorrow?

{Rowan}Yeah I do in my phone here take our girl while I go get it I pass him the puppy and get up to get my phone out of my purse I walk to the front get my purse once I have my purse I head back into the exam room and go through my contacts on my phone and find Shane's cell phone number once I find Shane's cell phone number I text Peyton the number there you go now you have Shane's cell phone number

{Peyton}Thank you I'm going to go call him, she nods and takes the puppy from me and I get up and walk out of the room to call principal Blanchard

Phone call (Peyton and Shane)

{Shane}Hello Shane Blanchard speaking how may I help you?

{Peyton}Um yes this is Peyton Meyer, Josephine and Julie Meyer's father there was an emergency regarding my daughters today they were kidnapped from my parents place their kidnapper slap them in the face punch them in their stomachs so I had to take them to the hospital tonight to get checked out, so what I'm trying to say to you is my daughter's won't be going to school tomorrow but they will be in the next day

{Shane}Oh my god I'm so sorry to hear they were kidnap, and they can take as much time off as they need just call me when they are ready to come back to school, and have a nice night Mr. Meyer

{Peyton}You too and thank you principal Blanchard

End of call

{Peyton}Once I get off the phone with principal Blanchard I walk back to the exam room with Rowan and the puppy when I walk into the room I see that the puppy is back in her cage and I see Rowan sitting on the floor leaning her head against the examination table looking exhausted so I walk up to her and touch her hand and she jumps I'm sorry I scared you, you look exhausted why don't you go home for the night I got the puppy go home get some sleep and I'll see you tomorrow

{Rowan}No no I'm OK I can work

{Peyton}Rowan I insist go home get some sleep I'm fine here on my own I have been running this place by myself since the day I opened it

{Rowan}I'm not leaving you

{Peyton}After she said that the next thing I know is that she fell asleep leaning against the examination table so I pick her up and carry her to the lounge room and put her on the couch and then I grab a blanket I put it on her then I kiss her head sleep tight Rowan, I stand there for a few minutes just watching her sleep and I think to myself (god she's so beautiful) then I snap out of my thoughts and walk to the door but before I walk out of the room I take one more look at her and smile then I close the door and head back to the exam room to check on the puppy I walk over to the puppy cage and see that the puppy is just lying there looking at me so I open the cage and carefully pick her up and hold her in my arms and she starts whining it's OK sweet girl your going to be OK yes you are I thought me talking to her and telling her that she's going to be OK would get her to stop whining but that didn't seem to work so I walk with her around the Vet Clinic and when I get to the door of the lounge room she whines even louder so I look at her and say what's wrong girl huh? Oh I know you want to see what or who is behind this door don't you? Yes you do alright come on I open the door and walk in what do you want that is in here she whines again so I walk over to the couch and she starts barking happily oh I see you want Rowan well I'm sorry sweet puppy she's sleeping the puppy whimpers again you want to sleep in here with her don't you alright let's go get your cage and we'll put you in the cage and bring the cage in here so you can sleep in here with her I walk out the door and close it and walk back to the exam room and put the puppy back in her cage and carry the cage with the puppy inside back to the lounge room then I sit on the other couch and start to feel my eyes getting heavy so I grabbed a blanket and a pillow and lay down and the next thing I know I'm asleep

With Jim

{Jim}Well we just got done talking to the rehab doctor and now we are heading to the police station once we get to the police station I get out of the squad car and help Marcy out of the back of the squad car then we walk into the police station and I take Marcy to one of the interrogation rooms alright Marcy why did you kidnap Josephine and Julie Meyer?

{Marcy}I just wanted to see my daughters and I knew that Peyton wouldn't let me so I took them

{Jim}Why did you abandon them when they were babies?

{Marcy}Because I thought that's what mothers did with their child and or children

{Jim}What do you mean by that?

{Marcy}Because I was abandoned by my biological mother when I was a baby if it wasn't for my father stepping up and being my soul parent I probably would have been in foster care, my father raised me by himself until I was five years old and then he got married to a very beautiful woman her name was Rachel Avery Adams she was such a beautiful woman

{Jim}Was what do you mean was?

{Marcy}She died she killed herself I loved her she was the only mother I ever knew

{Jim}Do you know a woman by the name of Brooklynn Avery?

{Marcy}Yeah I do she's my sister I haven't seen her since our mother died, why?

{Jim}I have reason to believe that your mother didn't kill herself I think she was murdered and I think your sister killed her, did you know that Brooklynn was taking antipsychotic medication?

{Marcy}No I didn't, and you think my sister murdered my mother?

{Jim}Yes I do and when I get you to your jail cell I'm going to do some research on Brooklynn Avery so are you ready to go to your jail cell?

{Marcy}Yeah I get up with Jim and we walk out of the interrogation room to go to my jail cell once we get to my jail cell I walk into my jail cell then I turn around and look at Jim if you find my sister be careful with her as you said she's taking antipsychotic medication meaning she's a danger to herself and other people be careful if what you said is true that she killed my mother she is a danger

{Jim}I will, I close the cell door and I was about to walk away until Marcy stopped me

{Marcy}Officer Jim?

{Jim}Yes Marcy?

{Marcy}Now that I think about it I know who hurt my puppy

{Jim}Who would hurt your puppy?

{Marcy}Brooklynn and it was a sign she's coming after me next, oh my god my father you have to find my father and keep him safe please Officer Jim find my father and keep him safe, my father's name is Jack Adams

{Jim}Thank you and I will you have nothing to worry about I will find your father and I will keep him safe and I will find your sister and bring her to Justice I will keep both you and your father safe you have my word, I walk back to my desk and start the search to find Marcy's father and the search to find Brooklynn Avery
