Forget It

Chapter 18: Mysterious Visitor? Get out of my House!

A couple of seasons passed, and Jill was still madly in love with her husband. They had visited Dr. Hardy that morning and found out that she was pregnant. It wasn't long after they got back home when Vesta called.

"Good morning, Jill! Someone's just come by, asking for someone who looks like you."

The teen looked at Skye, then replied, "Did you know them?"

Vesta shook her head on the video screen. "It was a teenage boy with short dark hair. I didn't catch his name, though."

"Where is he headed now?" Skye asked, leaning over his wife toward the screen.

The older woman cringed. "I told him where your house is, so he should be there any second."

At that moment, a knock sounded on the front door.

"Skye, sweetie, can you get that?" The former thief groaned mockingly, but complied. Vesta and Jill's conversation continued.

"Who's that silver-haired guy? Why is he in your house?"

Jill blushed. "He's Skye. He's my husband."

"Jill, this guy's for you. You might want to come."

The teen waved at Vesta's image. "Well, I guess I gotta go. Thanks for the warning." She pushed a button and the screen went black. She stood up and half-hobbled to the door. It seemed the baby was more than just a couple months along.

"Hello?" She reached the door. Their guest was a tall guy. His eyes were serious, and he looked to be very strong.

"Sarah, is that you?"
