4. Lost and Found

*Writers note – I am so sorry it took so long for me to update. I finally got a day off work and away from the world to write. Thanks to all of you for being patient!*

“She had a stare that stretched to infinity. She was, in that moment,
not my mother but something separate from me.”-Alice Sebold (The Lovely Bones)

I started that day just like any other. I went out for a jog across old mans river run.

But this time I heard something down near the water. So I went to investigate.

I found a baby boy laying wrapped in a blanket.
His diaper was over full and he looked ravished.

I wasn’t sure what to do. I didn’t want to leave this baby laying out here.
But I was certainly not the right person to handle him.
If she ever found out…

I decided I would take a chance and bring him home and decide what to do with him there.

I just needed to think first.

I would call a babysitter then go out and consider my options.

On my way out I was wondering if I would be able and go to the bar without being
bothered when suddenly I felt as though someone was watching me.

But when I turned around…

no one was there.

I ignored my fear, I knew I was just jumpy, just afraid.
But I had to show that I was ahead and she couldn’t outwit me.

I jumped in my car and headed in town.

Smiths bar was one of the many building which dated back to the 1800′s
This was a small town in the middle of a desert back then, now Riverview
has been transformed mostly into farmland. But a bit of the old southern
architecture still remains.

Luckily the bar was slow tonight so not alot of people were there.
Just the regulars, myself included.

I started thinking about the baby boy. Like who left him there by the river?
Why didn’t I just call the police. Actually that was a dumb question.
I knew why I couldn’t have anything to do with the police.
Even if I made the tip anonymous they could still trace the call back to me.

Suddenly a bunch of boys from a Frat house from the local university entered the bar
and all peace was gone. I immediately jumped up and decided to head out for a walk.
Walks always calmed me down.

I quickly learned that a walk was not a good idea.
It was getting late and the sun was already down.
I was already jumpy enough as it is.

I went to the playground but that was stupid. The last thing I wanted to think
about was children.

As I was leaving I got the suspicion I was being watched again.

But once again when I turned around, no one.

I decided I should just head home before I go crazy.

But all the sudden I heard laughter…

from a child…

a girl…

“Ashley…”

“I won’t let you get away with it again Gina.”

“I will find a loophole… I will find my way back.”

Apologies

Hey everyone. So I made a post about a week ago saying I would have a post up, and then I didn’t. I am sorry. I have been in the process of getting a new job, so I have been really busy. If I don’t get called in tomorrow (Which I shouldn’t) then I will work on it then. I am so sorry for the extended wait.

10 Months in the Future-

“I can’t believe how much I have changed. How much things have changed.” I said aloud to myself.
It was only 3 short weeks ago that all of my planning and devotion was about to pay off.

I thought back to how it all started, how I ended up in this dump…

I had been sitting at home watching the news one late evening.
I remember thinking about buying Him a guitar. I knew his mother
had been virtuoso so maybe he could learn.

I was thinking about doing something nice for him. It still angers me.

Anyway I was sitting there when I heard the door bust open.

My heart sped up, then stopped all together.

I knew in that instance I had been caught.

“Ma’am, PUT YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK!”

They caught me, He found a way around me. He outwitted me.

Now I am stuck in this hell hole. The Riverview Institute of the Mentally Ill.

I am already sick of these four ugly white grey walls.
I can’t believe they put me in an insane asylum.

He will pay for what he has done.

I began planning. But as I went on I realized I was beginning to talk to myself more
than could possibly be healthy. I needed to get out of there. I needed out now.

Escaping wasn’t nearly the challenge I thought it would be.
Lucky for me I was sent to a low security institution.
It was located in an old warehouse.

All I had to do was wait for the front guard to go on break…

Then I made my escape. I knew what I was after, and I started towards it.

I made a run for it and just kept going. If I stopped I was afraid they’d realize I was
gone and be able to find me.

My heart was beating so fast. My adrenaline was pumping. I was ecstatic.

As I headed into town I was worried people would notice something was up.

I was being looked at funny. But I couldn’t let myself get worried. I had a mission
and I was going to complete it no matter what.

I could feel that I was close. Every step, every heartbeat, I was closer.

It was around the corner. I was so close.

I crossed the street instead of heading straight for it.
I stopped in front of the house where I knew he’d still be.
In front of my house.
I was ready. I knew I was. My body pulled forward, the house calling my name.
It would all to soon be over.
