Chapter 5: hello stranger,
2 hours after getting off of the boat that arrived in London Rick had already found a hotel to stay at and figured that if he was to find Evy he would start in the morning, but right now his stomach was growling so he left his hotel room and went in search of a market. On his way to a market he had gotten directions for from the hotel clerk, all kinds of thoughts ran through his head as to why Evy had left him. "What if she's dying and didn't want me to know?" He thought "Or what if she loves another man? Or what if she's gotten
tired of me? Or what if--" the 'what if' s continued to plague his mind and he was afraid he would never find out.
Carnahan manor:
"Jonathan?" Evy called from downstairs frustrated. It was already 5:15 in the evening and if they didn't leave to the market now they would get there late and be late getting home to cook dinner, then someone would get a stomach ach and Evy would loose another night's sleep. This was something she was sick and tired of, even if it was her job.
"Yes?" came Jonathan's response from upstairs.
"Do hurry up, we need to hurry." Just then Jonathan came down the stairs; they got in the car and left at 5:23. "Great, just great, this is the third time this week we've left for the market late, ugh it's going to be a long night," Evy thought to her self. But what she didn't know was how long it was going to be.
Once they got in the store Jonathan separated from Evy to shop on his own, leaving her to shop for dinner by herself, which was fine with her, she got things done quicker that way.
When she had finished shopping, and was getting ready to leave it hit her. She had almost forgotten about Jonathan. "Oh brother of mine where are you? You better not have lost my--" she thought in search of her bothersome brother, Evy was beginning to get very angry.
Rick was alone shopping and getting ready to leave himself when he saw a young boy of maybe a year and a half run by holding a toy and giggling. He may be young, but he sure is fast. Rick thought and started to smile at the young kid. He had blonde hair and what he could see was blue eyes, whoever the parents were they sure were lucky to have such a cute kid.
Rick was pulled out of his thoughts by an all too familiar voice screaming out to the child.
"Alex, wait! Slow down will you. If you don't stop I swear I will tell your mum!" The man screamed. The man sounded a lot like Jonathan Carnahan, but since that would be the last thing he thought he'd ever hear Jonathan say and since he didn't see him he let it pass. The second to the last thing he would ever expect to see was exactly what he saw when he turned the corner.
Evy had been looking for Jonathan for the past 10 minutes and not finding him made her nervous. When she heard his voice yelling out Alex's name she stopped dead. Oh no, Jon what have you done this time. She thought as she turned the corner and bumped into another person.
Seeing something had fallen out of the basket she had, she got down and picked it up, never once looking the other person in the face.
"I'm sorry, so very sorry……." She continued to say over and over.
"Evy?" the voice said in utter shock.
Just now looking up Evy saw someone she had taken out of her life, someone she never thought she'd see again, Rick O'Connell. What is he doing here? Evy thought. Shocked, she stood up and smiled saying quietly "Hello stranger."
hope you liked it.
