Chapter Nineteen

At exactly 2 pm Kalinda parks her car near Diane's house, from where she can see her front door. She was surprised to get Diane's call, she was even more surprised when she told her about Kurt's kid. It wasn't hard to find out who is the other woman in Kurt's life and she doesn't envy Diane for having to compete with not only a one-year-old child, but his pretty young mother as well.

She is aware what usually happens in such situations, the mother will use Kurt's desire to be with his son to her advantage and Diane will be the one suffering from all of it in the end. Of course she knows Diane isn't someone to give in easily and Kalinda is glad to help her make sure she sees clearly about what's going on behind her back.

When she notices Kurt coming out of the house she waits until he drives away and follows him to his destination. She stays in her car and observes Kurt meeting the red headed woman and the little boy. Apart from taking pictures, she decides to make a video as well, it would give Diane a better insight, if she decides to watch the footage at all.

She has to admit if she didn't know the truth, Miranda, Kurt and the kid would look like an ordinary family, spending a Saturday afternoon in the park. Even without any intimate gestures between the two adults, they seem to be having fun and Kurt is clearly enjoying the company of his son.

A little later the adults enter what seems like a more serious conversation. Of course it's impossible to tell what it's about, but Kalinda keeps recording them, right until they seem to say goodbye. Then she puts the camera away and decides to follow Miranda instead of Kurt. They walk out of the park and Kalinda can still see them from her car. She only starts the engine when they are far enough and gets nearer, then parks the car again.

Soon Miranda and her son enter a house on the side of the street and Kalinda drives closer with her and stops it in front of the next house. She takes out her cell to call Diane.

"Hey, how did it go?" Diane asks first thing and Kalinda can hear how tensed her voice is.

It must be hard for her to turn to such means behind her husband's back, even though Kurt never has to know about this.

"It was a friendly meeting, nothing for you to worry about," she reassures her former boss, who knows that she can trust her judgment, that's why she turned to her on the first place.

"Thank you, Kalinda. I really appreciate this," Diane's voice already sounds calmer as she replies.

"I'll email you the photos soon," she promises, but she doesn't mention the video. She will include that too and Diane can decide if she wants to watch it or not.

After she puts her phone away, she hears knocking on the window next to her and it almost frightens her. The woman who's smiling at her from outside looks familiar to her for some reason, but she cannot remember having met her before.

"Hello," the redhead greets her as she pulls the window down.

"Can I help you?" Kalinda inquires confused.

"I was just about to ask the same thing. Are you visiting someone?"

Suburbs. Kalinda thinks to herself, she should have counted with someone questioning what she is doing there.

"No, I am just thinking of moving my parents to this neighborhood and want to check out the houses in the street, see if there's any I like or anything for sale," she replies quickly with a smile and can already see how the other woman gets excited.

"I could help you with that. I am actually a realtor and there's indeed a house for sale in our street."

"That would be lovely. Do you live here?" Kalinda continues her friendly act as she gets out of her car.

"Yes, I live there," she points at the house Kalinda just saw Miranda go in and suddenly she feels the need to be even nicer to the young woman.

"What a wonderful house," she smiles, "I'm sure you are not living there alone."

"No, I still live with my parents. I know, it's lame, but we live on separate floors and my sister and her little boy is living with us too."

Kalinda isn't even surprised how easily she can get the information from her new acquaintance, even though they haven't even introduced themselves to each other yet.

"Sounds like a big happy family. Is your sister married?"

"No, her boyfriend had dumped her before she found out she was pregnant. Then he married another woman."

"That is awful, she must have been very disappointed."

"She was, but he finally knows about his son and is willing to take responsibility."

"But you just said she is married to another woman."

"Yeah, but my nephew is a sweetie, his dad is already in love with him."

"So are you saying you want them to get back together with your sister?"

"Wouldn't that be romantic?"

"Definitely," Kalinda nods as she realizes that the enthusiastic aunt, looking out for her nephew, might actually be a bigger problem than the mother herself.

"So do you want to see that house?" the woman reminds Kalinda of her white lie and since she knows she cannot get out of this anymore, she nods with a friendly smile.

"Certainly."

"I'm Tanya, by the way," she extends her hand.

"Kalinda."
