Chapter 3

When I woke up in the middle of the night I was scared. I know I heard something.

I got out of my bed and checked the kids, both were sleeping peacefully.

Without turning on the lights I ran through the house checking each window and door again. They were all still locked, maybe it was a catfight. I went back to bed.

Waking up with four cold little feet and four cold little hands on you is not the way you would want to wake, but the smiles and giggles that come with it makes your day before it even started.

After a good morning hug festival, we dress and go into the kitchen.

I make pancakes and orange juice.

When our bellies are full we put on our jackets and make a run to the car. It is so cold today. I turn on the heat and scrap the ice of my windows. The kids are already safe and warm in my car. After clearing all the windows we take of to the mall.

It is still early so there are not so many people shopping. I like that; I can look at clothes and still keep an eye on J and J sitting in their stroller.

It takes me two hours to get an outfit for all of us before Jackson is fat up and becomes very moody so we pay for the snow boots and leave the mall. I was grateful that Jackson made it so long. I got everything on my list.

It was still early November, but I needed to think ahead and start shopping for Christmas presents, so that is for the next shopping trip.

I hoped to start with it today after finishing this list, hoping Jackson would hold on. Well I am in no hurry just yet.

I walk over to my car thinking about Christmas presents and forget to look at my surroundings, biggest mistake of my life!

I have put the bags in the trunk of the car and got Jackson in his safety seat, when Jade is finally strapped in her seat I want to get out of the car to get into the driver seat I feel a thing pressed into my lower back.

I freeze…

"Turn around and hug me like I am your man." A man behind me says.

I close my eyes and take a deep breath to stop the scream that is starting to rise in my throat.

"Hurry"

I smile at my kids and know I have no choice. I need to listen to this man. If he shoots me the kids have nobody at all and what will he do with them?

I turn slowly, my eyes dropped not able to look at the man holding a gun.

My arms go up and around his neck. While I hug him I whisper "please don't hurt me or my kids. I don't have a lot of money but you can have it… but please don't hurt us."

The man hugs me back and whispers "Get into your car, but take the passenger seat, I will drive us."

I start to shake out of fear and he gets uneasy with me "Go now and take a seat."

I do what I am told. I can't think clear now. I know if I was alone I would never ever step into my car. But my kids J and J are sitting in the car watching everything, not able to get out of the car themselves… I have no choice. To keep them safe I need to listen to the man with the gun.

So I step into the car.
