Chapter 27

Mort thumbed his fingers on his steering wheel and glanced once more at the address Cel had given him and then at his watch. Cel had gone to school shortly after her first date with Ricky, fun kid, but Mort had a funny feeling about him.

The car in front of him finally turned left so he continued forward. Cel had gone over to Ricky's after school that day, Tuesday, October 12, 2004. Ricky was on his way to pick her up. He hoped that he would not be invited for dinner, he wasn't really a social person since she died. Mort took his eyes of the road for a second, wondering why he couldn't even think her name.

BEEP!!!!!! Mort looked up and swerved before he hit another car. He began to concentrate so much on his driving that he didn't even notice the finger that the driver of the other car gave him.

Mort pulled up to a small brick house with a green roof. It seemed innocent enough, so did Ricky. But what if this was the wrong address that Ricky had given Cel and he had really took Cel someplace else with horrible intentions?

Then you'd beat Ricky's brains in with a screwdriver.

Mort jumped back in shock. Where had that thought come from? He shook his head and walked up to the door. There was a doorbell, so he hesitantly reached to ring it, but the door opened before he could.

"What can I do for you?" asked a beautiful blond woman. She was wearing a pink dress with a black scarf over her short hair. Could this be Ricky's mom? They did have the same hair color, but she didn't look that much like Ricky. She did not have the same look that Ricky had, a look that brought a memory almost to Mort reach, but not quite. Almost like Mort had seen Ricky before, or someone who looked a lot like him.

The woman cleared her throat and pulled Mort out of thought.

"Morton Rainey," Mort said, offering his hand nervously. Her response shocked him.

"Julia Depp, the former Mrs. Milner. My husband Ted died not that long ago. Are you okay?" She looked at Mort who looked as though he had seen a ghost.
