Lucy had been called down
to the office and she was told to go on in. She saw Simon sitting in a chair in
front of the principal's desk.
Lucy: Simon what kind of trouble are you in now?
Simon: I'd ask the same thing about you too.
Lucy sat down in the chair beside Simon. The principal looked up to see her
there.
Simon: Would you mind telling us what we are doing here I was in the middle of
writing a test.
Lucy: Simon be quiet your test can wait.
The principal: Simon settle sown I have made arrangements to have you write
your test another day.
Simon: Why can't I write it now. What's going on.
The principal: Lucy I want you and Simon to go get your jackets and go home
now.
Lucy: But why what's wrong.
The Principal: Lucy trust me. Do as I say.
Simon and Lucy stood up and left. They went to there lockers and got there
jackets and left the school. They got into the vehical and drove to the house
without saying a word. They walked into the house. Ruthie ran to the door to
see them.
Ruthie: Well that means Lucy's not sick and Norton didn't beat up Simon.
Simon: What are you talking about?
Lucy: Ya?
They walked into the living room to see Hank Jewelly and Matt sitting there.
They also saw that they all had tears in there eyes.
Simon; I see what you mean.
Lucy: Ruthie what's going on?
Ruthie: How should I know. Matt came and got me from school and took me here.
Simon: Matt what's going on?
Matt looked at Simon and then looked away.
Jewelly: Simon, Lucy go and bring the twins down stairs.
Hank: Bring Happy as well.
Simon and Lucy looked at each other helplessly and then walked up the stairs.
They walked into the twins room. Lucy grabbed Sam out of his crib and Simon
grabbed David. They walked out of the room and Simon saw Happy laying on his
bed.
Simon: Happy, Come. ( He yelled)
Happy crawled off the bed and to Simon's side. Lucy Simon and Happy walked down
the stairs. When they got downstairs Simon and Lucy placed Sam and David in
their play pen. They then went and sat down on the couch beside Matt across
from Hank and Jewelly. Ruthie was sitting on the floor beside Matt petting
Happy.
