Chapter 4
Everyone in the room stopped and to Mandy so did time.........
" Mandy?" Nick asked. " Mandy!" He started to yell as if Mandy was deaf but she wasn't only in a trance between the real world and hers.
It wasn't that long ago Mandy was introduced to Ecklie's side of the family. Mandy never even cared about who her mother loved or didn't. Every night she was with a new man and to Mandy so was Conrad that was until Conrad's family came over.
" Is everything ready?" Her mother asked as the doorbell rang.
" Yes mother." Mandy never called her mom mother only when she was annoyed or mad at her.
" Go get washed up." Mandy walked away as Jen presented herself to Conrad's mother, father and older brother. As everyone came in Mandy came out and also met the family. Although this might sound cheesy but Ecklie's parents were actually nice but if Mandy could only say that about Conrad's brother Robert. Robert had this cold look in his eye that sent shivers down Mandy's spine but then again it was a cool night. As everyone sat around the table, Robert started asking questions only to Mandy which made her uncomfortable. After she finished what was one her plate, she went to the bathroom. No one noticed that Robert left too. As Mandy made her way up to her bathroom, Robert closely followed. Mandy sensed something wrong but ignored it, that's when Robert to advantage of her a ten- year -old, little girl.
Mandy snapped out of her trance looking at everyone around her. Even Lindsay began to worry. " Are you all right?" Lindsay asked.
" Ya I'm fine. Dad can we go home? I'm tired."
The next day no one said anything, although Ecklie seemed awfully happy. " Good day Grissom." Ecklie said as Grissom walked bye and gave a shuttered look. As Ecklie walked bye he saw Catherine. " Hello Catherine." He said. Catherine turned around and also gave a certain look. Sara and Warrick came out of the break room when Ecklie approached them." How are you two doing?" Ecklie asked.
" Fine." Sara said very confused.
" I'm good." Warrick also wanted to add 'but are you?' but then decided not to.
" Great!" Ecklie said as he walked off. The last person Ecklie was going to meet was an unhappy person. " Hello Nick how are you?" Nick pinned Ecklie against the wall and that's when Ecklie's happy mood became unhappy.
" What the hell did your brother do to my daughter?"
" Would you let me down and I have know clue."
" Well she mentioned him and she's afraid of him so tell me."
" Why are you pinning me to the wall go and talk to my brother." Nick let him go then left. Ecklie shook his head then walked off.
Robert waited outside the school in a black Tahoe. He waited for Mandy...........
That's all hope you like. Also Chapter five will be dealing with Sara only and a little bit of Nick with the other characters.........................................................................
