Mommy! Daddy is Missing. Meeting with Darlene Mason
To say that at that moment, Sue is nervous is a big understatement. She is worse than nervous."Would you walk with me?" Darlene asks, fixing her wide light brown coloured eyes on hers, almost like she's daring Sue to say no and run away.Sue swallows and throws Ford an offside glance. Having no choice in the situation, she nods. "Of course ma'am."Darlene turns around almost with a soldier like stance that read nothing more than "follow me bitch." Sue manges to fall into step with her and slowly and slowly, they leave where the party is being held.They enter the house and Darlene leads her to what looks like a dining room. It had a deep brown brushed wooden table in the table and chairs designed with the same wood but pillows on the chairs, arranged neatly around the table.Darlene takes a seat and motions Sue to also have a seat opposite her. Darlene does not say anything for a moment and an attendant dressed in the party officiating clothes bring them two glasses on wine on a tray
Mommy! Daddy is Missing. Staying Overnight
Almost like everyone had been waiting with bated breath for them to emerge from the house.Darlene and Sue emerge from the backdoor, Darlene's hand still draped on Sue's shoulder. Everyone turns to look at them and then they started to clink glasses and laughing.Sue glances at Darlene, wondering if she knew what is going on but neither of them know what it is.Ford is in the middle of everyone, laughing and collecting money from some people who were also laughing and clapping hands, glancing at Sue and Darlene from time to time. Ford sees them and keeps the money in his pocket, looking guilty.Darlene walks to him and pulls out all the money he had his in his pocket. "what is this?""It's nothing Mum."Tanya clears her throat on a microphone, her words sounding slurry. She's obviously very tipsy. "Mic test mic test." Darlene facepalms and then turns to Sue. "Leave your children for a minute, one becomes a gambler and the other is drunk. Tanya! Get off that stage now." Darlene orders
Mommy! Daddy is Missing. That Bitch, Sue.
After they have eaten, everyone reclines on the lounge outside the house, getting some air or something really close to that. They all have cute plates of fruits, mixed fruits in front of them all.They eat in silence and quiet which is almost kind of weird. And in this sort of silence, It is silence gotten watching something.Ford is being a little playful. He keeps trying to feed Sue who keeps on rejecting and then going red and then the cycle all over again. Tanya is sniggering where she's sitting, watching it happen. Darlene just shakes her head.Finally, Sue takes the fruit from him just to let him leave her alone. She turns red when she meets Darlene's eyes and hurriedly looks away."Don't feel embarrassed darling. You're among family although my son can be a little overbearing. You'll get used to it."Sue smiles. "Tomorrow is Saturday. Why don't you stay till Sunday? I like having you around and maybe you can tell me a few things about yourself."Sue understands what she mean
Mommy! Daddy is Missing. Tigress in a Female Lamb's clothing.
"Goodnight Mum." Tanya yawns and exits the room, leaving behind Darlene, Sue and Ford on the lounge. It's already late in the night. Harry has gone to bed and Tanya too has left them behind.Darlene drowns the remaining wine in her glass and sets it down. "I should go to bed too. I'll see you both tomorrow though I can go without seeing Ford for a change." She teases.Sue laughs. "Goodnight Auntie.""You know you can call me Darlene?" She smiles and leaves without waiting for a response."How's your mum so cool?"Ford laughs. "You find her cool? I find yours cool too.""I guess it's a reverse is the case thing."They laugh and sit silently. Their hands find one another's and fold into each other with a nice and subtle warmth against the slight cold that's starting to come down on the city."It'll soon be winter.""I can feel it too."Unconsciously, their hands only clasp harder. "How about we go to bed too?" Ford says and rises up from the chair. He takes the plate they both used to
Mommy! Daddy is Missing. Like it or Not.
For both Sue and Ford, it was a night to remember. A very hot and steamy one they will never forget so soon.The next morning, both of them are naked in bed. Ford wakes and turns around to see Sue asleep soundly beside him. He adjusts and watches her for a long time, he brushes her messy hair from her face and she smiles in her sleep.Tanya knocks lightly on the door. "Mum says you two should come down for breakfast."Ford hms in the room, trying not to wake Sue up just yet. She will wake up in her own time. He stands up from the bed and hits the shower. In a few minutes, he steps out, his waist wrapped in a white towel and his upper body bare. He checks Sue in bed but she's already awake and smiling brightly at him."Good morning beautiful." He whispers and gives her a peck on the lips. She only smiles wider. "Why are you smiling so much?" He laughs, curious about what's making her smile so much."I could watch this everyday for the rest of my life without missing a single day." She
Mommy! Daddy is Missing. I liked you, that's why!
Ford pecks Sue on the cheek and waves her bye. He drives out of the compound and leaves for his office where he will meet Marshall. Unlike the nanny, they won't let her know they are on to her.They will try to make it as unsuspecting as possible and get her into Ford's office first with her own two feet. Saturday is not a work day but the front desks are always occupied by two attendants, they use the shift method.And to make it easier for Ford and Marshall to being the culprit into the building without been seen, they need Elise's help. And luckily, it's Elise's turn to man the desk until around two pm. It's just eleven am so she will still be around with the other attendant.Ford arrives and enters. He sees her chatting and laughing freely, nods slightly at her and enters the elevator. They will let her know soon that they need her help with something and he leaves for his office.He meets Marshall inside already, sitting stiffly on the chair."I'm here. So how do we do it?" ...
Mommy! Daddy is Missing. Known and Unknown Truths.
Darlene stands beside Sue as she waves Ford off to work. "It's too early to start to miss him you know? He basically just went outside the gate." She teasesSue laughs. "He promised to be back soon and I trust that. Let's just go inside."They both turn around and go back inside the house. Tanya and Ashley are playing together in the living room and laughing quite loudly as Tanya keeps on tickling Ashley's feet. Harry is probably upstairs in his room.The previous day, he had been discharged. Although he could have been discharged much earlier, he chose to stay there but finally, his mum convinced him to come home and that he'll get the treatment he needs from home. They certainly can afford it and even more than that.They walk by and go to the dining room. They tables have been cleared and all that remains on the table is a vase of flowers. Darlene motions Sue to a seat."I love to drink some wine whenever... So I'm going to get a bottle. Would you like some too? It's been a long t

Mommy! Daddy is Missing. Facepalms and Laughter.
It's Ford's turn to facepalm, although there's a hint of hidden laughter on his face. "We'll deal with you two later. Let's attend to the reporters so we can get some rest, what do you think?"Sue nods, agreeing. "Please.""Attention please. Come this way if you have questions. We'll answer them to the best of our abilities."This grabbed all attention towards the couple who stand side by side, Ford's large hands enclosing Sue's in his. "So we heard you have questions for us?""Is a wedding really happening? I mean you're two influential families. Don't you want to give a chance to others?"They all laugh."Well, what can we say when fate drew us to one another? I can't swap her for the world and I'm sure it's a mutual feeling."

Mommy! Daddy is Missing. Mis-sayings.

Every minute, she would shake without reason, like a sudden gust of wind was blown on her and it worried everyone so much until they went on their vacation where Ashley was always within eyeshot. Everyone had eyes on her and others, ready to make another lesson of anybody who tries to try shit with them as an individual and as a family as a whole.For a whole month, they visited every amusement park, every theme park, every Five Mi

Ford stands with the Chief of the Police Force as they both watch the body get covered and the ambulance leaves with the other.The chief barks out orders to his men and they respond with gusto and then he faces Ford and smiles warily. "What really happened here?""They both had kidnapped my daughter and sister. I wanted to teach them a lesson but I didn't even get to. Brian got his hand shot off by Angela while she fell through that window all on her own. I guess the guilt from shooting her partner was too much but I don't think she'd want to die so the falling must have been an accident." He explains, meeting the Chief's eyes very bravely and squarely."Hm, I see. So that's what happened. We'll get the body to the morgue while the man will be taken to the hospital. I never thought I'd see a severed hand like that, it looked so roughly pulled or torn apart. Do you know about that?"Ford shakes his head. "As soon as Angela fell, I and my assistant both left the room, hoping we could s

"You know it is not your fault right? Those bastards must have known one way or the other that whatever happened was a result of their own choices."Sue tries to smile. "It's not that actually but thanks for being here with me..." Sue glances at Ashley as the girl snuggles closer to her, putting her head on her inner arms. Sue turns to Tanya and smiles appreciatively. "You know, I never had the opportunity to adequately thank you for what you did even after you got beaten while doing it. I really owe you a lot."Tanya smiles widely. "You don't need to thank me. It's what any human would have done,

"Call the authorities! Immediately."
