Blue Waters Ahead

A New Model

Anastasia
It has been a month since my world crashed around us all. I sold what I could and we moved to a very small place. I have feelers out for a job, but until my trial is over I am considered guilty. Even seeing where I am living now, some people think it's all an act and I am playing poor. Because the company failed after all its assets were taken all the workers can't get unemployment very easily. Especially me the one on trial for embezzling all the companies assets. Zachary had to rent this place in his name for my safety. I decided not to sell my guns, in this situation I need them. Ginny suddenly runs in to show me something she finds important.
Ginny
Look at this Anastasia? Do you recognize someone?
Anastasia
Damn look at that they are both in this photo. Did you call Zachary?
Ginny
He is on his way over here. He has been getting help monitoring the accounts and transfers from his Uncle Jason and an IT guy they both know. They are in a non extradition country. He however is still modeling, but using aliases.
Anastasia
How am I going to get a divorce from the scumbag?
Ginny
Say will think of something to get you free from Roger or whoever he is. Anyway let's see what he says about this when he gets here okay. Chin up okay.
Zachary
We know where he is and who he is with, but we can't get them here to stand trial. Uncle Jason said they still have a lot of the money, but that could change soon. I explained your circumstances and he might have an idea. His boss is looking for a talented CFO. We might have to fudge a bit about things until we get it all squared away. Do you think you two can fudge the truth a bit? Uncle Jason is willing to chat with you just to check if you are innocent first, but if he knows you are innocent he will go to the ends of the earth to clear your name.

I have Gail sit in a spot no one can see her, Zachary knows she is going to be watching Anastasia and Ginny. We talk to one at a time, she is sitting a tiny room that looks like a bedroom or maybe a closet it's that small. The first thing I notice is how gaunt she looks. She looks like she is underweight and has eaten properly for a while. Suddenly a mass of children come in and kiss their mommy good night. All look very healthy and all are dressed nicely. She excuses herself and tells the kids to wave good bye to Zachary's uncle Jason. I don't miss the tear in Gails eyes. That scene was real, this woman feeds and takes care of her children's needs first over all else. Even her own health. Zachary told us she might not make it much longer if she keeps giving most if not all her food to her children. I talk to her a bit longer and she explains what she knows for sure. I ask to talk to Zachary alone. She gets up and he starts to move in front of the camera when he jumps after we hear a thud. I hear call 911 now.
Zachary
Uncle Jason we have to get Anastasia to the hospital now.
Jason Taylor
I go talk to Mr Grey and explain everything and we leave for New York immediately. He says to bring all of them out and put them in one of the apartments and make sure all are fed. He decides to go with us and has Barney check on everything.
Barney
I already have the information and where these two scumbags who left a mother and four children to starve to death. While they live the life of Riley. I have plans for these two and will have to use outside sources to seek some lawful retribution without anyone finding out who was behind it. The mother is in a coma due to malnutrition. I make sure their victim can't be found guilty of anything. Including the frame up her boss set her up for.
Anastasia
I just got away from the computer screen and my chest started hurting and I began slipping off my feet. Blackness is all I see now. My daddy is there saying he told me not to marry Roger. My grandma is holding me up telling me my babies need me and to not give up on my life, because blue can be depressing, but it is also very pretty in other circumstances and mine changed in a day and it could easily change again for the better. She hugged me and dad told me to go kick life's butt. My mom and grand pa weren't good people. I know moms weren't either. I hear, she is coming to, go find the doctor. That's not a voice I know at all. I blink and a beautiful older lady says you finally woke up. I ask how long I was out.
Grace
You have been in a coma for a month. We weren't sure you would survive.
Anastasia
Who are you?
Grace
I am dr Grace Trevelyan Grey, My son flew us out to New York when you passed out during a face time with Taylor.
Anastasia
Where are my babies?
Grace
They are with Ginny and Gail at my sons penthouse. He will want to talk to you of course and your attorney as well. Your boss and husband made a huge mistake vacationing in a country that can extradite them. So they got most of the money back along with things that belonged to you before you married Roger. They need you to eat though, your kids need you and you need to stop self sacrificing for others. You can be a good mother, but not if you give up eating you can't, understand me?
Anastasia
I just nod and cry and get reprimanded for that as well. She tells me to stop crying because I am already dehydrated and points at all the bags.
