It took 5 months before Jack finally gave up to his anxiety and went back…
Knocking on the door of the doctor's house where he had left Ana all those months ago, he suddenly thought that it was a bad idea and began to turn away as the door opened.
"Can I help you sir?" A young maid was standing at the door, looking slightly weary of the man stood in dreadlocks and a pirate getup.
"Ahh… yes I'm looking for Anamaria. She was brought here about 5 months back, I was wondering if she was still here?"
"I'm sorry sir, but you missed her by about a week. Her and her daughter have moved on after her recovery." Jack blinked, stared at the girl, tried and failed to figure out what she had just said and his face showed so.
"Erm… What luv? Daughter?"
"Yes. Sweet little thing she was too. Came as quite a shock to the poor women. Everyone thought the babe had died inside her. Came right on time too the doctor thinks." Jack stumbled trying to take in the information he had just been told.
"Right… ok… Ana has a baby… my baby… oh god… er I don't suppose you know where she was heading?" The girl looked apologetically as she shook her head. "Right… thank you luv but I must be on my way." The maid nodded her head as she turned and closed the door behind her. Now the chase was on.
It didn't take long for Jack to track down Anamaria's movements. Apparently she had become well known in the town, and everyone had wished her well as she moved on to start a new life in another port town. According to one woman, Ana had taken a passage on a goods ship- probably not one of her best ideas with so many pirates in the sea and a women and a 2 month old baby onboard a goods ship wasn't bright. It was actually quite remarkable.
No sooner had Jack found all this information out, then he was onboard his own ship determined to track down his lover and child...
