The Perfect Wife

One Way Or Another.

Six months had passed by and snow was beginning to fall to the ground, Margo was in her kitchen baking a blueberry pie for dessert that night. She had adjusted as best she could to life around Millwood that she had developed a well scheduled routine. Much to her surprise she was beginning to develop feelings for Mark, which made her feel uneasy and scared. Mark and Margo still shared a bed every night, and they were having lots of fun bonding over there book club they had started with just the two of them. Mark was able to get over half a dozen of Margo's fathers books, and every week during Margo's and her fathers letter exchange, she asks him one question about the book there reading that month. Margo's father doesn't quite understand how come Margo is so settled into her new life, hes worried that he wont ever see his little girl ever again.

Back in BC, Harvey and John sat around John's table and were discussing this weeks letter that had arrived from Margo.

"I just don't get it.. she sounds so happy there? She hardly ever brings up coming home anymore." John said as he put his letter down. "What's she been saying to you?"

"Not much.. we exchanged a few poems and a couple kind words.. that's really about it. I hear what your saying though. Its like she's settled in there.. a little to settled if you ask me." Harvey was slowly giving up everyday on his wife, there wasn't much he could do anymore.

"We need to get her home. I don't know how, but we need to. I need my little girl again.." his voice cracked and the tears began to flow slowly out of his eyes. "I need her back" he whimpered.

"hey, everything's going to be okay.. Margo is safe and healthy and hell for all we know shes happy.." Harvey got up to get some tissue from down the hall for John, on his way back he saw John leaning against the kitchen counter. "What are you doing John?" he asked confused.

"I have an idea.. I don't know if it will work, but I've got an idea. You know that guy you meet with some times, the one you give my books to, so he cam give them to that Mark guy."

"Yeah? we meet behind the gas station.. the one where she was...taken." he got silent.

"I'll write Margo, tell her I've got another book for them to pick up, when he meets us we pull a gun on him and make him drive us to where ever there keeping her.. It has to work, I just need your help." John pleaded to Harvey, this was his last hope.

"John.. we cant.. that's illegal!" Harvey was shocked at how crazy John as becoming.

"So is kidnapping my daughter!" He yelled back to him. "Listen, you can help me or not, but either way I'm bringing my baby home- one way or another.
