Chapter 4. Psyche. Tru is getting help from a little baby. Will she able to get Alex and Katie safely home? Well, read on.
Tru and Alex return to the car after their meal. Alex puts Katie in her car seat then turns to Tru.
"You are the sweetest person I've ever met," says Alex. "I mean not every person we met takes us out to lunch without knowing us well."
"It's just plain good old manners," says Tru with a smile.
"It's a first." Alex opens the passenger door for Tru.
"What's a first?"
"Katie. She's usually fussy about new people being around her but with you she's an angel."
"It happens all the times. Kids love me I guess." Alex walks over to the drivers sit and gets into the car.
"Nah, there's gotta be something special about you."
"What?"
"You know you have gift. Everyone's got one or two."
"A gift. You believe that people receive special gifts?"
"I think so." Tru blushes as Alex turns on the car and drives away. As Alex heads back to the university, Tru gets a phone call.
"Hello," says Tru.
"Tru, what's going on. Are the two victims alright?" ask Davies.
"Yes," replies Tru with a smile. "It's pass four o'clock. There going to be okay."
"What about these visions that you've been getting?"
"I'll explain that later. I've gotta go."
"You're dad?" ask Alex when he pulls up to the university.
"No, my boss."
"Are you late?"
"No, he just likes to check up on me. He's very concern about my well being."
"Oh." Alex turns away.
"Not in that sort of way."
"What way did you think I was thinking?"
"A way that brings misconceptions."
"Why would I have misconceptions?"
"Are you sure you're in the right field, Freud? "
"Psychology has too many questions. I like to be in the action."
"The blood, the gore. All that stuff. Sounds like lots of fun."
"See it's the intensity of being in an operation."
"I'm sure it gets the adrenaline running."
"You bet." Tru looks back at Katie and she grabs Tru's fingers as she waves goodbye giving Tru another vision. Tru lets go as the vision dissipates and she looks at Alex. "You okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine," says Tru. "I've gotta go." She exit's the car quickly.
"Okay." Alex rolls down the window. "See you in class tomorrow."
"Sure. Will be there."
"Are sure I can't take you home?"
"I'm good. Bye." Alex nods his head and drives away. Tru waves goodbye to Katie and sees her throw her pacifier at Tru. She catches it but Alex had driven off. Tru then puts it in her pocket. She sighs and turns around. About a couple minutes later she see Jenson walk over to her. "Jenson hi."
"Tru why didn't you tell me the truth?" ask Jenson.
"About what?" ask Tru.
"You going out with the new guy, Alex."
"Um, Jenson it's not what you think."
"What else would I think?"
"He's new and I decided to show him around. I was trying to be a kind citizen. It's that so wrong." Tru puts her hand in her pocket and finds the pacifier. She quickly gets a vision that has Alex exiting his car and getting beaten up by someone. "Oh no."
"Tru what's wrong."
"Jenson I've gotta go."
"Go. Go where."
"I can't explain right now but…" Tru sets out running. Jenson follows right after her. Tru runs down the street and catches up to Alex's car. She sees it a block away. "Alex." She stops out of breath and sees a bike without a lock. Tru grabs it and rides it down the block.
"Hey, that's my bike," yells the owner. Jenson comes by running after Tru.
"Tru," yells Jenson as he continues to follow her on foot.
Tru catches up to Alex when he stops at an apartment and exits his car. She then sees the stranger about to deck Alex.
"Alex watch out," yells Tru as she slams on the brakes and tosses the bike aside. Alex looks behind him and dodges the punch. Tru crosses the street and pulls the guy to her. "Jack, I knew it."
"Tru stay out of this," says Jack.
"No." Jack then pushes Tru hard and she falls in the middle of the road. Tru sees headlights coming towards her, but someone pulls her out of the cars way. When Tru opens her eyes she sees Jenson holding her.
On the other side, Alex gets angry with Jack for pushing Tru and turns on him. Jack tries to hold him off. Tru from the other side of the of the street sees this and runs over to stop the fight.
"It's over Jack," says Tru. "Let it go."
"This isn't a game Tru," says Jack. "You don't always win."
"Deal with Jack. Game over for you."
"For today." Jack walks backwards slowly. "But I've got some extra lives saved for a rainy day." He turns around and walks down the street.
"Alex, what's going on out here?" ask a woman exiting the apartment building.
"It's okay Katherine," says Alex. "Katie is alright." Alex takes Katie out of the car seat and hands her to Katherine. Katie cries a little.
"I think maybe she wants this," says Tru handing Katherine Katie's pacifier.
"Thank you," replies Katherine. Alex heads inside to put the babies things into Katherine's apartment and in about five minutes returns outside to Tru and Jenson.
"I don't know what just happen her but…thank you," says Alex as he kisses Tru on the cheek.
"I'm sure anyone would of done the same," says Tru.
"I wish that were true," says Alex as he heads to his car. Then from the car Alex calls out to Tru. She turns around. "Jenson it is."
"Yeah," replies Jenson surprise that he is talking to him when he called out for Tru.
"Got a special lady there." Tru blushes and looks away.
"Thanks." Jenson looks at Tru and smiles. Then Alex drives off. "I think he's got a point."
"I think that he got the point about us."
"I am kind of glad he got that point."
"Me too. I'm glad that you got the point about us." Tru smiles revealing her dimples on each side of her cheeks.
"Yeah, about that. Can I go and take back what I said earlier?"
"It's forgotten." Tru kisses him on the lips.
