The Parent Trap

Found out pt. 4

   Bella Oxsterina was pacing in her living room. Matthew, Ludwig, and his grandparents were sitting on the couch or chairs in the living room. Each wondering what the woman would do.

  It had been a few minutes since Bella found out that Matthew and Alfred switched during camp. She also found out that Ludwig and her parents knew about the switch and didn't tell her. Her feelings knowing this shifted from anger and worry, to joy and happiness.

   Bella couldn't believe that Matthew her youngest son was here, and Alfred the son she been raising was with Allie...Alistair. She could understand why the boys wanted to switch, they just found each other and about their parents. Yet she didn't like to be tricked either, she sighed and sat down.

  "Do you know that switching places with yer brother is wrong?"

  Bella wrote on a pad and showed it Matthew.

  "But we wanted to see the parent we don't see every day..."

  "Matthew, I know you wanted to, but you should of ask first. I know yer papa he will be worried that you aren't there."

  "He's probably more worried about his new girlfriend..."

  Bella dropped her pad.

(With Alfred)

   He was sitting in his room. He was thinking on what to tell his papa, to tell him to stop marrying the stupid woman that he brought home. He wanted to break the spell that she had over him. Maybe he would run away and then his papa would try to find him. Then he remembered about Matthew and his mama. If something happened to him he wouldn't be able to switch back. He sighed as he heard a knock at the door.

  "Lad, I need to talk to ye." It was his papa.

  "Yeah."

  Alistair came in and sat on his bed. The red head could tell that his son was feeling down, but he couldn't understand why. Genevie was a very nice woman, and she would make a great mother to the boy. If only his son would give the woman a chance.

  "Matthew..."

  "I don't want her to my mamma, I already have one."

  "Matthew we been..."

  "Why did you leave her, because she couldn't talk like normal?"

  "Matthew, I will not discuss this..."

  "You're under this woman's spell you need to remember mama, she's your true love not this witch."

  "Matthew, enough, I don't want gotten into ya, but I taught ya to respect people."

  "Mama taught that, and she also told me to trust my gut. I'm Alfred papa."

  "I don't...Alfred..."
  "Matthew is with Mama."

  "What the blood hel..heck have you two done?"
