Nasa Headquarters:
"Are the names all in order?" Asked Thomas, not knowing if he was exited or nervous,
"Yep, should we get Jorge in?" Replied Adam,
"You call him in!" Said Thomas with frustration in his voice.
Before Adam could call Jorge in Thomas' phone rang with a blocked number,
"Hello?"
"You will pay for what you have done!"
"I'm sorry who's this? I think you've got the wrong number?!"
"I have got the correct number, dork!"
Thomas hung up, starting to think about the message, he couldn't tell if the voice belonged to a man or a woman,
"Who was that?" Asked Adam
"No clue!"
Thomas wanted to keep the phone call to himself, incase they thought he was a lunatic. At the corner of Thomas' eye he saw Jorge walking into the room, looking furious,
"What took you so long to call me through, I specifically said for you guys to call me through when you have done!?"
There was a long and awkward silence,
"Answer me!" Jorge screamed so loud it could have burst his eardrums,
"Some distractions," Thomas said with pity in his voice.
"Lets spin the names!"
Thomas, Adam and Jorge watched the screens as the names span, and span, and span, Thomas began to get really nervous, but a flood of anger went through him.
The first names of the families came through = The Shaw's, a family of 4, 2 kids and 2 adults.
The second family came through = The Graham's, also with 2 adults and children.
Then the Evan's, same as the other 2, 2 adults and kids.
Thomas got so anxious he was about to puke, although he swallowed it back down, since he didn't want to brake the machine.
The 4th family was the Smith's, instead they only had 1 child and 1 adult.
After that it was the Cornwall's with only an adult.
The second last family was the Cunningham's with 4 children and 2 adults,
Last but not least it was the Edison's, Thomas couldn't believe it, it was his family, he would have to leave his other family behind, he couldn't take in all the surprise, before he new it.
He fainted...
