After hanging up the phone from her talk with Gil Catherine walked upstairs to he bedroom. Before entering her bedroom she poked he head into the bathroom where Eddie was shaving.
"Eddie?" she spoke " I just talked to my friend from the hospital and he is going to come over to visit me. My head is spinning so I am going to lie down for awhile could you wake me when he gets here?" Catherine smiled at Eddie and kissed him on the cheek. " Thanks hon" she said as she walked out.
Around two thirty the doorbell rang. Gil was right on time. He stood patiently waiting at the door expecting Catherine to answer. He door opened and Eddie walked outside.
"Well surprise, surprise" Eddie said sarcastically " What do you think you are doing here? You've come to take my wife out I assume. Well I have news for you, Catherine changed her mind, she thinks you are a liar and I told her all about the games you are trying to play." Eddie smiled wickedly at Gil
"She called my Ed" Gil shot back " I want to see her." Gil tried pushing his way past Eddie with the least amount of force possible, but Eddie pulled him back. " This is my house, you set one foot inside of it or anywhere near my wife or my kid I will have you arrested." Edie turned and walked back inside "Have a good day Mr. Grissom." Eddie walked inside and slammed the door shut.
Eddie walked back into his house and up to his bedroom. "Baby, wake up" he softly called to Catherine.
Catherine opened her eyes " Is he here?" she jumped out of her bed.
So looked over at Eddie who was acting well. He had a disappoint look on his face. "He called on the phone just now. He said that he is sorry he tried to trick you and that he did not expect you to come looking for him. He also told me to tell you not to bother trying to reach him anymore."
Catherine sat back on the bed and lie down. As Eddie walked out of the room with a smile on his face, Catherine lay facing the wall with tears falling from her eyes. Why she thought to her self am I so upset.
Catherine woke up later that evening to the noise of the TV blaring from Lindsey's room. She walked quickly toward Lindsey's bedroom and poked her head in. "Lindsey? Are you awake?" Lindsey sat up from her beanbag chair and walked toward her mom. "I thought you would never wake up" she smiled " Can we eat now I am very hungry." Catherine looked at the watch on her arm. "Baby it's almost eight daddy did not feed you?" Lindsey shook her head no. " Are you surprised " she smirked "Daddy is gone out with his friends, he won't be home until the morning if you are lucky he might come home sober."
Lindsey turned off her TV and walked to the kitchen. "Mommy" she turned around " Are you coming?"
Catherine followed her to the kitchen. "Lindsey are you upset because I was in the hospital for your birthday, because I will make it up to you I promise."
Lindsey looked at her mother " No" a tear started to fall " I miss uncle Gil, I saw him today though, h came to see you but Daddy told him to stay away. Mommy I just wish that you could remember uncle Gil and all the bad things daddy did to you." Lindsey sighed and sat down at the table with her mother.
"Lindsey" Catherine stood up " Do you know where Gil lives?" Lindsey eagerly shook her head yes. " Go get your coat while I call cab. We are going to see him."
As Catherine and Lindsey ran to he front door to leave it swung open and Eddie walked in. " Where do you think you are going" he yelled in their direction. Lindsey stepped backward holding her mother's hand. Catherine looked deep into Eddie's eyes and could see the anger she instantly got a feeling that she had seen that look before.
