Kenny

"Okay, I'm officially free of work and we can get ready to go." I said walking into the house after my last meeting.

Raquel smiled, "Good."

We finished getting packed up before heading to the airport. When we arrived, I checked us in as Raquel tended to the baby.

"Flight 352 to New York City leaves in 20 minutes. Boarding will begin in 10." The lady informed me.

"Thanks."

"Okay, I'm gonna run to the bathroom really quick. Can you hold Kelly for me?" Raquel asked handing the baby to me.

"Sure."

She ran off to the bathroom as I sat down rocking Kelly in my arms. I could tell she was sleepy but she was trying so hard to stay awake.

"Kenny?" I heard a familiar voice call.

I looked up,"Faith, Warren, hey. I thought you guys were on your honeymoon."

"We came back early, someone got seasick." Warren replied.

"You, Warren. You got seasick." Faith said making him give her glare. She looked at me and frowned,"What are you doing with Cheyenne?"

"Who?"

"Cheyenne! Is Toni here? What's going on?" She asked looking around as I stood to my feet.

"Whoa, this is Kelly. Raquel is your best friend, I can't believe you don't know her daughter's name. Lastly, what does Toni have to do with any of this?"

"You can not be that stupid..." she said and I frowned. She sighed and rolled her eyes, "Maybe you are. Raquel doesn't have a child, this is Toni's baby, and the police are looking for her."

"That's impossible. Raquel told me-"

"She lied." Warren cut in. I looked between them and at Kelly. I didn't believe a word they were saying. Suddenly something got my eye.

<<<<<>>>>>

Raquel

I met up with Kenny as he put Kelly in her carrier before laying a blanket over it.

"Oh there you are. Come on let's get in line to board." He said picking up the carrier. As we were walking I almost bumped into this little girl who seemed to be in deep search for a doll or something.

I chuckled,"I can't wait until Kelly gets that age."

"She's gonna be so spoiled." Kenny replied with a smile. His face then turned to panic, "Oh shit, I forgot my briefcase. Go ahead and board I'll be back in a second." He said handing me the carrier. I nodded as he walked away.

When I finally made it onto the plane, I found our seats and sat down. I saw some people who were in the back of the line get on and I groaned, Kenny needs to hurry his ass up.

I looked at the carrier and smiled, "Everything is falling into place baby girl. Now I can have you all to myself and worry free." I said removing the blanket, "What the hell?" I said looking at a fucking doll.

I picked it up and notice a flyer attached to it. It was a lost child poster with my baby's face on it. My blood started boiling, "THAT BASTARD!!!"

"Attention passengers this is your pilot speaking, flight 235 will be arriving to China in 8 hours. Please prepare for takeoff."

"China?! It's supposed to be New York!!" I yelled getting out of my seat.

"Ma'am is there a problem?" A flight attendant asked.

"I need to get off this damn plane."

"I'm sorry the doors are locked and we can't open them."

"No you don't understand, I'm on the wrong flight!"

"I'm sorry perhaps when we get to our destination you can make New accommodations to get to the right place."

"AAAAHH!!!!"

Chad

I heard the doorbell ring and I answered. I halfway opened it and saw Kenny on my doorstep. I scoffed and braced myself for whatever was about to go down.

"I come in peace." He said throwing a hand up on surrender. He cleared his throat, "I think I have someone you've been looking for."

I frowned opening the door wider,"Oh my God!" I said seeing Cheyenne in his arms. I took her and hugged her tiny little body as she started babbling. "TONI!"

"What's wrong- Oh my goodness!" She said jogging over to us and taking Cheyenne. "Mommy missed you so much." She cried.

"I'm so sorry Toni." Kenny said. Did he have something to do with this?

I looked at him angrily, "What did you-"

"It's not his fault. It was Raquel all of it. She took Cheyenne and passed her off as her own." Faith interrupted. I didn't even notice her and Warren standing there.

"Yeah, when Faith and Warren confronted me in the airport,
I didn't believe them but when I saw that flyer with Cheyenne's face on it, I knew." Kenny stated.

"Once Raquel lands in China, she'll be arrested and brought back here." Warren exclaimed.

"I can't believe she would do something like this." I said.

"She's always been a little off her rocker but I never thought she would go this far either." Faith added.

Kenny shook his head, "I can't believe I was so blind. I should have known something wasn't right."

"She tricked you. At least you did the right thing by bringing the baby back." Warren said.

"I'm just glad she's home." Toni said rubbing Cheyenne's back.

Kenny sighed, "Well I should get going."

"Hey." I said making him turn around. I sighed, "Thanks." I said. I didn't like him not one bit, but he could've just left town with my kid. Instead he did the right thing and brought her back.

He nodded and left. Next out the door was Faith and Warren, and soon it was just me, Toni, and a sleeping Cheyenne. I was actually happy about that. We finally got our baby back. The question is; what happens now?
