White Liars

Chapter 12

A/N: First of all I would like to thank all of you! :) Second of all I'm so sorry I havent uploaded all week. I've been preparing for my Mission Trip. Third I hope you like the chapter I have offered you. It may not be the greatest cause I still have packing to do haha:)

Aunt Nina's POV

I didnt know what to say. Someone was stalking Jen and not only were they stalking her but threatening her as well. I was astounded that somebody would murder her sister and then emotionally torture Jen. I didnt know who could possibly handle that kind of guilt. I didnt know how to help Jen. I was so upset for her, but I was also so happy. Jen trusted me enough that she told me the truth instead of making up an intricate lie.

I got up and hugged her. She has gone through so much and now she has to go through this.

"What do I do Aunt Nina?" She asked

I didnt know what to tell her.

"I dont know babydoll. You cant not do what whoever this person says. But, I dont want you endangering yourself in the process." I released her from our hug and held her away from me but still holding onto her upper arm, "If you get another note, you come and get me before you do anything drastic, okay?"

"Okay."

I hugged her again before leaving her room and walking into mine. I opened my laptop and the desktop image showed up. I needed to change that because I'm living here now. I just couldnt change it. That picture meaant so much to me. It was me and my baby girl, right after I gave birth to her. She was beautiful, but I didnt need Jen asking questions. So I right clicked on my desktop and hit personalize. Then picked one of the wallpapers that came with the thing. But not before taking one last look at the picture.

I could always bring the picture up to look at, but it had been my wallpaper since I got the laptop and it would take a while to get used to. I opened Google Chrome and typed in the search box, 'Being your own PI' I got a whole lot of not helpful websites and stuff like, 'Buy your own PI kit now and get half off on the so and so!' Stupid crap like that. Finally I gave up and went downstairs for lunch.

Jen, Ashley, and Frank were already downstairs chatting. When I came down Ash got the plates out and we sat outside for some sandwiches and macoroni and cheese. Not the fanciest but still amazing. We all sat out there laughing and having a good time until we heard the doorbell ring. Frank got up to get the door and Ashley, Jen, and I continued our conversation. Frank walked in with that Detective.

"Hello everyone. I'm sorry for disturbing your lunch. I just came here to tell you that Grant Depilito has been arrested and is being questioned at this very moment." I heard Jen take a quick breath in, then she released it slowly, seemingly calming herself down.

Frank turned to him, "Thank you for informing us before the media finds out." He said.

Detective Buntner just nodded and then walked himself out. Jen hadnt said a word and was hiding her eyes from everyone at the table. Ashley touched her back but when she did she stiffened up. After a while she relaxed herself. She looked up and said, "I want to go back to school." Talk about random. It was Saturday now so she still had until Monday to change her mind, but she seemed unbudging on the fact that she wanted to go back to school. 

Frank and Ashley fought her at first but she has a way to get them to do things for her, and shes good at it. We all went back inside and sat down in the Living Room. Frank turned on the tv and the first thing we heard was:

"This is just coming in from headquarters now. Grant Depilito has been arrested by police and is being questioned about his involvement in Freshman girl, Elizabeth Habbay. The police have not released yet if they are charging the teen with the murser or involvement in the murder. Thats all for now more news on the murder case later."

Frank then turned off the tv.

"I didnt think they would cover it so fast." Ashley said quietly. Frank got up from his chair and stood in front of us.

"I think we should take a vacation. Get away from all this action and just relax." Jen, Ashley, and I all snapped our heads towards him with large smiles on our faces. Then looked at each other, all thinking the same thing. Beach.

"Where to dad?" Jen asked, excitement laced delicately through her words.

"Well, where would you want to go?" He asked.

"How about...." She trailed off trying to make it look like she hadnt already thought about it."How about the Bahamas?" She asked

"Thats fine with me. How about you two ladies?" He asked me and Ashley. We both nodded furiously, threatening to dislocate or pull something. "Then it's settled. I'll book us plane tickets for Monday. That gives you tomorrow to do your vacation shopping. Oh and we are going to fly out at night so we dont have to deal with the media."

So that was that, we were going to the Bahama's for three weeks to escape the craziness of our little town. After a whole day planning our trip I went to my room to sleep. But first I pulled out my laptop and opened the picture of me holding my baby girl. I looked at her beautiful features and sometimes I wished I had never given her up.

I did it for her though. I did it because I couldnt provide what she needed me to at the time. I did it because I knew people who could give her all she wanted and more but couldnt concieve a child. I signed my rights to the child I gave birth to, to a woman whom I knew in and out. I handed the tiny child in my arms over to the only person I would ever trust with something that precious to me. I handed her to my sister.

A short four years later, she gave birth to Elizabeth, her miracle child. But she would never underestimate the love for her first child she was given, because Jennifer was her first miracle and her only sisters child. It was bad timing and the only thing I knew was that as much as I loved her I had to let her go, for now. I was Jennifers real mother.

A/N: WOAH! Where did that come from?! In the chapter I overcame my writers block I had this idea that not only would Jennifer have a surprise Aunt but also a surprise mother! lol. Tell me what you think!!! Tell me how you think telling Jen will go down! Give me love people and like it upppp!!! ;) I expect much love from you all when I open my laptop Sunday the 29th's night!!! lol Have a good week all and wish me luck on the many hours of work I have coming up :)
