Part thirteen, Maplewood Street, late afternoon on wednesday

"Okay, I think you will know who are Charlie and Bossi and the others? Well... After I had graduated high School I went to California to go to college. At the College I have met a Kelly Garrett. We became friends. She would to be a cop and I went with her because I haven't known what I was going to study. At this time I was really undecided. Actually I would study English. But I haven't like it. I had taken the first classes but then I have canceled them. So I went with Kelly because I thought it would be exciting. With her help I had finished this school and we were not the worst of all. We were among the best five female graduates. After finishing the school we have worked for a small police department in Los Angeles. Somehow Charlie Townsend had noticed us. He asked Kelly and me if we would join his Agency. We work for him as private detectives and were called `His Angels´."

"But if you are a cop why did the Agency never fond something about it. Normally they will find every small detail."

"Oh, Charlie have managed this. I had worked with an assumed name. I don't know if the other had worked with their real names. My name was Sabrina Duncan. The other Angels don't know my real name. After some months we have started to work for Charlie, Jill left the Angels. Charlie had called us so. As replacement her little sister Kris joined us. About one and a half year later I have met Joe during a case. We had fallen in love and got spontaneous married. Therefore I had left the Angels. Joe didn't want that I carry on such a dangerous work, besides that I have noticed that I was pregnant."

Lee count fast because he thought something was wrong in this story. "But it can't be!"

Amanda eyes get filled with tears. "Sure, but this baby had never been born. I had a miscarriage. So now you now the most of my past. I hope that you are not disappointed with me because I haven't told you earlier. But I had suppressed it. But you have your secrets, too."

"Wow, I have married a detective. No I am not bad with you, after all I have my secrets which I am going to tell you sometimes. But give me time you know how hard it is for me to talk about it. But let us change the subject. You have asked me if I will move in with you and in the hospital I had have enough time to think about it and I have made the decision that I will spent every single minute with you. Besides that I will make the experience how our baby is growing."

Amanda was very pleased about this news.

"For the moment there is not much to expect except that I will be in bad mood, that I will eat the weird things. And don't forget the morning sickness. But if you insist on it, please. But there is a little problem. In some months this house will be to small for our new family. So will move to move in another house!"

"Okay, then let us begin to look after a bigger house."

Amanda remembered that a big house in the near was empty since some weeks. "I know one. It is here in the near of this house. It have a big garden, 3 bath rooms, 6 bed rooms, a big kitchen, a fireplace, a big wine-cellar for you and 2 garages. We can have a look on it, if you want."

"You are mad about this house!"

"Yes, it is beautiful. But let us make the dossier. Charlie will surely call today and I think that my Angels will take the case."

Lee and Amanda wrote down everything they knew about Masters. During this Amanda made something to eat.

"In which week are you?"

"The doctors in New York said in the 14. week."

"Do you know what it is doing to be?"

"No, it is to early. But when I have an ultrasound you can come with me."

They curled up together on the sofa and watched TV. Then they went to bed. **************************************************************************** ******* Amanda wake up with a well known sickness."

"Now is this starting!" She set up. Due to this Lee wake up too.

"Is something wrong? Is everything okay with you?" Lee had turned on the light.

"No everything is okay. I am only ill. But this is normal?"

"In the middle of night, too? Should I get you something?" Amanda stood up.

"This is not necessary. You must look after you feet. I go down in the kitchen. Do you need something?"

Lee shook his head. She went down in the kitchen and cooked a cup of tea. She hoped that he would still work. It worked. Then she went back to her bedroom. Lee had fallen back in his sleep. She watched him. His features were relaxed and he didn't look so serious, but childlike.

"I love you." As she lid down next to him she heard a faint "I love you, too" from her husband. Smiling she went back into sleep.
