Priscilla was watching after her grandchildren. Her son, navarone was helping priscilla take care of them.

"Grama! Ben took my doll!", exclaimed a five year old rae.

"Benjamin, give your sister her doll back", said priscilla while fixing a salad in the kitchen.

Ben held onto the doll and ran away. Riley giggled and chased ben.

Rae started crying.

Priscilla put the spoon down and sighed.

Rae rubbed her eyes.

Priscilla stepped foot into the living room. She picked up rae.

"It's okay, don't cry, want a strawberry?", asked priscilla as she made her way into the kitchen.

Rae nodded and sniffed.

"I'll only give it to you if you stop crying", said priscilla.

Rae sniffed one last time.

"There we go", said priscilla with a smile.

Priscilla picked out a clean fresh washed strawberry and gave it to rae.

Rae took it and began eating it.

Priscilla put rae down and went back to finishing the salad.

Rae ran towards her room and looked at her toys.

Priscilla and lisa had walkie talkies around the house. One in rae's room, ben's, riley's, and lisa's. Including the ones in the kitchen and living room.

Priscilla was cutting a cucumber and was listening to the walkie talkie that is connected to rae's room. She smiled as she heard rae laugh.

Priscilla put the sliced cucumbers in the bowl of salad. She stopped as soon as she heard rae talk.

"My....my name is raelynn, what's yours?"

"I'm your grandfather darling."

"What is your name grampa?"

"Well, my name's elvis, elvis presley, but you can call me grandpa."

Priscilla let go of the knife causing it to drop to the floor. She ran and made her way towards rae's room.

Priscilla made it to rae's room and looked around. Rae looked up from her pink care bear plush toy.

"Rae....who were you talking to?", asked priscilla.

"Grandpa elvis", replied rae and giggled.

Rae ran out of her room.

Priscilla heard the front door being unlocked.

Lisa opened the door and put her keys and purse on the living room table.

"I'm home!", exclaimed lisa.

Priscilla exited rae's room and smiled as soon as she caught sight of lisa.

Ben and riley came out of their rooms and ran towards the living room.

Rae hugged her mother. Lisa picked her up.

"How did they behave?", asked lisa.

"Good", replied priscilla.

Ben gave rae her doll back.

"I brought someone, he's outside, I want you to meet him, mommy's new boyfriend", said lisa.

Lisa opened the door revealing nicolas cage. He stepped inside the house.

"Hello, I'm nicolas", said nicolas.

"Hi nicolas, how are you?", asked priscilla.

"I'm good ma'am", replied nicolas.

"I'm priscilla, lisa's mother", said priscilla.

"These are my children, riley, ben, and raelynn", said lisa.

"Hello, your mother has told me all about you", said nicolas.

"Did you bring us any gifts?", asked riley.

Nicolas and priscilla laughed.

"Riley", said lisa.

Riley giggled.

Nighttime rolled by and lisa drove nicolas home. She was now in the living room. Riley, ben, and rae were asleep in their rooms.

Priscilla went into the living room and sat next to lisa.

"You're not going to believe what I heard in the walkie talkie earlier", said priscilla.

Lisa looked at her mother.

"The one's that connected to raelynn's room?", asked lisa.

Priscilla nodded.

"It happened again lisa", said priscilla.

Lisa put her head on her mother's lap and started sobbing. Priscilla ran her hand through lisa's hair.

The walkie talkie from the kitchen started making noise. Priscilla turned her head towards the kitchen. The lights were turned off.

"Lisa, it's happening again", whispered priscilla.

Lisa sat up and listened.

"Goodnight raelynn, grandpa is always looking down on you, protecting you, lisa, riley, ben, and priscilla, it's like just yesterday you were just a baby."

Lisa stood up and ran towards rae's room. Priscilla went after lisa.

Lisa opened the door. Priscilla reached lisa and looked inside finding no sign of elvis in the room.

Lisa sighed.

Rae was asleep in her bed.

Lisa and priscilla hugged while sobbing.
