LOVE AT FIRST GLANCE

38.Morning News

Maur punched in the contact and opened Constance private information for me. Maur handed me her cell and I placed it on speaker.  I know how Constance is she will deny she said something. "Morning  sweetie did you see the announcement? Its a good photo of you both dear."  "Constance its not a good morning.  You had no right to do that. Your leak is dangerous for us all. Antonio your future son in law will have targets on our backs. We won't be able to go under cover if we need to...to keep people safe. You have made it possible for Jay and Maur to be kidnapped and so many other horrific things.  Your pride once again goes first before the real love your daughter deserves. "  Jane you have no right to speak to me in that tone. I am after all her mother." "No, Hope is her mother. You just took her in for your own ego.  You never cared for her unless its suits you. I swear if anything happens to myself or the people I care about. I will personally deal with you than not stop Paddy this time."   " You ungrateful woman once again. I will tell my daughter what you said and how hurt you made me. She will believe me.  How dare you use her cell to call me. You sneaking bitch. I don't know what my daughter sees in you. She will believe me."
Jane hands me my cell. "Constance everything Jane stated to you is true.  Once again, you are trying to manipulate the situation.  Its already started. Alex has already called me to tell me the media picked it up. I finally have a good man in my life and you pull this m It took me long enough for him to stop calling me. Mother I am not sure I even want you near our  wedding."  "Sweetie I was only looking out for you." "No you were looking out for yourself as always.  If dad was still alive, he would be angry and so much." Maur hangs up her call and throws it. Jay and I look at her. Jay goes and picks up her cell. " Maur you broke the glass. I will order you a new one. I will give you two gals time to talk. I will support you in whatever decision you make babe. I am going to take everyone out for breakfast. I will bring you gals some food back and pick up from Andrew more papers magazines.  love you babe." " Love you too Jay and thanks." "Jay thanks,  I  will call the AT & T store to have them put aside the phone.  They will transfer everything for me. I am going to ask for a new number too. I will explain to Cavanaugh why and implement a new procedure.  I  have had it with Alex."  Jane hands me her cell and I did what I told Jay. The guy gives me my new number. I immediately put it in Jane's cell. 
Jay comes downstairs.
" I am taking us all out to breakfast. I will bring food back for the gals. Angela you and Tommy come with me just in case Maur needs to take Jane back to the ER or something." "I  will be right backm I need to put my shoes on and get my purse." "Are you two gals okay.?"  "No but we will be," said in unison.  "JUST BREATHE YOU TWOM LOVE YOU." We both give Angela a hug, told her we loved her too and enjoy her breakfast. "MA if you see any reporters or someone you don't know don't say anything that goes for Tommy too. PLEASE allow Jay to handle it." "OKAY,  will do." I  hurried up and changed out of slippers and picked up my purse. " Sorry Jay I needed to check on them. Tommy if we run into any reporters or people we don't know Jane doesn't want us to say anything. Jay is to handle it."  "Fine." Angela locks the front door. " Jane you were right to have me listen. I need to call HOPE AND speak with my sisters too. May I use your cell?" "Of course you can. WHILE you are talking to them, I am going to take a shower. Before you say it. I will leave the door open." I gathered clean clothes and enter the shower. I call Hope." Hello Jane what can I for you.?" "Its me Hope. I got mad and threw my cell after I hung up on Constance.  Please don't speak to no one about me and the wedding. Please tell my sisters this too. This is my new cell number.  Please give it to my sisters but no one else. Alex called me this morning.  Its already put three in Southern California."  " Maura I am sorry Constance did what she has done to you all. I know it is now more dangerous for you all. Constance doesn't think about it either. I love you. If you need anything, call me."

I hear someone coming up my stairs.  I get my gun out. "Paddy you almost got yourself shot. Hold on for a second. "Jane I am going to close the door.  Paddy is here."

Wow it didn't take Paddy long to come up here and check on his only daughter. I  take my time taking a shower.
"Maura congrats but a cop. I  now have one in the family just what I needed.  My associates are going to think we will be able to use him. I know better than that.  Constance put a target on your back too. You already have a huge one because of me.  He better treat you right or else."   "Thanks Paddy." Paddy hugs me. Jane calls out for me.  I  turn around to tell Paddy. Of course he's gone.
"Jane you okay?"  "Yeah,  I just need help putting on my socks and shoes. He vanished  when I called you." "Yeah. He agrees with the target on me and it being more dangerous.  He congratulated me and told me Antonio better treat me right."
I help her with her socks and shoes. " I want to talk and walk later on."  Jane and I go downstairs to get another donut, maple bar for me and an old fashion glaze for Maur" We relax and I place my head on Maur's  shoulder trying to figure out a venue. We know with a double wedding we can have more people because of our parents friends and associates.
