(Jamie's POV)
I just had to smile at Kane's reasoning. I promised not to say anything. And I could see that he was worried about his mother. I made the lunch and we all sat on the couch again and watched Men In Black. I had rented out Men In Black 2 as well and that was just as funny.
The day was cold and the kids went up into Ria's room to play a board game. I sat on the couch with a good book. Like I usually do on a cold day. But something was annoying me. I picked up the phone and dialled a number.
"Hello?" said the voice on the other end.
"Erica, honey, is your dad there? It's Jamie."
"Hi Jamie. Daddy isn't here right now. He went to Rohan for a work conference. Mummy is here though. D'ya wanna talk to her?"
"Sure, honey." Adele got on the phone.
"Hello?"
"Hi Adele it's just me, Jamie. I just wanted to know if you knew where Boromir was?"
"He went to a conference in Rohan. He should be back tonight though. Why?"
"I don't know. I'm getting this annoying feeling that he's lying again. You know what he's like when he's on the bottle."
"Yeah. I do."
"Y'know, I gotta call from one of his old girlfriends. Old friend of mine." I was careful not to mention Emma's name, because Adele turned nasty whenever she was mentioned. "Yeah, and she said that Boromir came to her house and beat her up. I am not sure, but I think something is wrong. I don't mean to be personal. But have you been getting on lately?"
"Yeah. Sort of. He's been sitting in front of the TV and read the kids stories. But he looks at me with venom."
I sighed. "Great..." I said to myself.
"What was that?" asked Adele.
"Nothing. Look I have to go. I'll call tonight when Boromir gets back, okay?"
"Sure. Talk to you then, J."
"Bye."
I hung up the phone and sighed. Nothing ever seemed to be going right for me.
(Ria's POV)
Kane, Vince and me were all up in my room when we heard the door slam.
"Mummy!" I heard the twins say. I jumped up and ran downstairs. Plummeting into dad's arms, I gave him a hug."
"Hey Dad." Dad gave me a huge hug.
"Hi, Princess. Feeling better?"
"Yep. Kane and Vince and me were just planning to hire a hit man to go after Randy and Gimli."
Dad laughed. "Well, make sure you do a good job of it. And get a cheap one, if you are saving up to buy that baseball mitt you want so much."
I saluted. "Yes sir!" And then turned and marched back upstairs. Twins and little sister in tow. The twins began to fight eachother.
"Give it back, Booger brain!" yelled Todd.
"It's mine!" yelled Brodie. They went on and on like that until I grabbed the pack of gum and the pez packet off them.
"Guess it's mine now." I said and we all trooped into my room.
