- Part 7 PREVIEW
Holly sits in the interrogation room alone at a desk. She looks around and sees the glass window. On the other side, an officer is watching Holly while someone in the background sits and waits.
Officer: Is this the woman who murdered your husband Miss?
???: That’s correct, officer.
Officer: Would you like to stay here or wait in the waiting room.
The figure steps out of the shadows and it is revealed to be Nancy.
Nancy: No. I want to see this. "RedDestiny92;12722788" wrote:
"Well I better get home, tell me if you find out anything."
"I will, thanks for helping me." she said.
She kissed his cheek, he blushed a little, she really was the only girl that talked to him.
"Sure, I'll uh....see you then."
She waved as he walked across the street to get home, she wondered if Skip was okay, and only because of the messy bandage on the back of his head.
End Scene
*scene begins*
Geoffrey woke up with a start after hearing a call that was loudly made for another doctor over the intercom in the hallway, “MOTHER, DON’T LEAVE!” Breathing heavily and blinking the room into focus, Geoffrey realized he was still at the hospital in his office. “It…it was just a dream. Calm yourself.”, as pulled the post-it note off his cheek that he must’ve slept on. “Man, what time is it?”, he muttered as he glanced down at his watch to check the time. Thinking he only slept a few hours, he realized he was there all night and quickly got up from his desk chair, almost knocking it over, before he remembered what he was looking at last night. Going back to his computer he started to print out his findings. His mother had had another son after she left Geoffrey’s father when he was just a child. The article didn’t say who the other son was, but it was a start. Geoffrey had to know and felt determined to find out no matter what the cost. Rushing out of the hospital, hoping no one really noticed his unkempt appearance, Geoffrey made his way swiftly to his car.
Malcolm just made it across the street as his father pulled into the driveway. “What on earth were you doing over there at this hour, Malcolm?!”, noticing Malcolm’s disheveled appearance as well, “Did.. did you sleep over there?!” His father’s own appearance wasn’t lost on him as well as he gruffly replied, ”So? And where were you all night, Dad? Mom needed you.” Geoffrey let out a short bark of a laugh, “Oh, I’m sure she did…”, as he walked into the house with Malcolm behind him. “No, I’m serious, Dad. Something must’ve upset Mom yesterday ‘cause she passed out from drinking so much.” Despite their hurt and disagreements, Geoffrey still cared a great deal about Nancy. Turning quickly towards his son, “What?! Where is she? Is she all right, Malcolm?!”, gripping him by his shoulders. “Yeah, Dad. She’s fine. I helped her into bed and she fell asleep.” Sagging in relief, Geoffrey sighed, smiled tentatively to Malcolm as he made his way upstairs to his wife.
Nancy woke up still in the clothes she wore the day before and with a pounding headache from the all the juice cocktails and crying the night before. Grimacing from the horrid taste in her mouth, she got up and went into the bathroom seeing for the first time the aftermath of last night. Eyes puffy, dried streaks of mascara smeared everywhere, eye lashes clumped together from her tears drying, her mussed hair. Grimacing again, she undressed and took a much needed shower.
Walking out wearing her robe, she stopped short at the sight of Geoffrey sitting on the edge of the bed, “Geoffrey..what do you want? Here to finish our fight? Well, leave it. I’m in no mood..” Expecting him to argue back, Nancy was taken by surprise when he quickly left the bed and held her. “Oh, Nancy, I’m so sorry. Malcolm just told me what happened last night. I should’ve been here. We should’ve talked it out. I’m so sorry!” Her eyes started to tear up at her husband’s gentle words as she wrapped her arms around him. They stood there for a moment, just holding each other in silence.
Meanwhile…
Dustin stared out the window of the motel, watching the sun rays shine through the blinds. He hadn’t slept. He couldn’t sleep. Too many things running through his head, too many worries. He looked down at Beau sleeping next to him seeing the now familiar sight of dried tears at the corner of his eyes. Beau had cried in his sleep again. “Oh, what am I going to do, Mom? What would you have done in this situation?”, he thought as his own tears started to form. Getting up from the bed as quietly as he could, Dustin slipped outside, leaving the door open a crack so he could hear when Beau wakes up, and calls the Burbs to check on his youngest sibling. The Burbs were gracious enough to look after him over night when Dustin explained that he and Beau just needed some brother bonding time. After ending the call, Dustin leaned his head back against the wall and closed his eyes, breathing in much needed fresh air. He heard footsteps approach him, but ignored them figuring they were just another visitor going to their room. “Hey. Are you all right? You don’t look so good.” Dustin opened his eyes, “Why does that voice sound familiar? Where have I heard that voice?”, he thought as he looked over to the stranger standing there, key poised at the door a room over from his and Beau’s room. Dustin couldn’t see much of the guy’s face what with his sunglasses and ball cap on. He could barely see blonde hair peeking from under the cap and he was about Dustin’s height and build. “Yeah, yeah. I’m all right. Thanks.” The stranger smiled, lowering his hand holding the key, “No problem. Just thought I’d check.”
“Are you from around here? You seem familiar.”
“Oh no. I live about a few hours outside of town. Just here visiting. And it’s funny that you should say that, though. A few people have said I seem familiar to them, too.”
“Huh.”
Holding his hand out to Dustin, “Oh, forgive my manners. My name’s Johnny.”
"Oh, Dustin.”, he said shaking his hand.

Lol! I think the whole thing is silly, so many were upset that we were lacking moderation on the old forum and now the mods are doing things to make up for the fact that they aren't here when we seem to need them most. I don't care if the buttons are gone, I'm just glad there are forums at all.
Oh I agree. People just like to find the weirdest things to complain about. "BLuhh, I hate loading screens to death, but I absolutely love Sims 2! It's the best!" (uh... whachu talkin' 'bout, willis?? Sims 2 and a booty load of loading screens and you're taking issues with the few that we get in TS4?! make no sense..)
@EAfan99 I know it seems like all I do is "Oh snapcracklepop!" you, but it's truly my reaction after I read your stuff. :D
I just wonder how you can breathe to say that phrase with all them hotdogs stuffed in your face...

Ooh I like it, I'll think up a good response, I was looking over the old responses and of all my typos the one that got me the most was "through" that should have been "throw"....lol.
Lol. No worries. :D I tend to find my typos after the fact, too. Though I couldn't for the life of me remember what you named the youngest Broke...the one that always gets left at the Burbs. Lol
Oh and @Crackseed ... you never did tell me why we're fanning ourselves. My curiosity has peaked, my dear sir. PEAKED.- Reddestiny921Seasoned VeteranI just named him Skip Jr. because I never named him before, I think that was the name I saw on the sims wiki, you're fanning yourselves because you have the vapors. lol

Ah, sounds good enough for me. We could call him Skippy or Skipster or Skip-it. LOL Ooooh why am I laughing so hard at "Skip-it"? Not sure why we gots the vapors, but I'll continue to fan myself anyways. Aahhh.. :D- Reddestiny921Seasoned Veteran*Next scene*
Johnny was about to leave Dustin's side when Beau came out of the room looking for his older brother, he didn't say anything as Beau ran to his brother noticing he was talking to someone he didn't know. He checked on Dustin because he knew he was, he had the flu recently and he was due for a check up so he got blood taken too. When the nurse asked him if he wanted custody of his two youngest brothers he gave him an odd look. Apparently social services were not willing to just leave them with Dustin who had a record and the Burbs who weren't really related to him, there files were easily accessible because adoption had become more constant between Pleasant View and Sunset Valley, Johnny's first thought was to be angry, it was bad enough he was disowned, but to think his mother got rid of his brothers too, it angered him. Mostly because he had a hard time being all on his own, and partly because he wouldn't have minded taking them in if she threw them out.
The nurse told him that the two youngest and the one that was old enough to be on his own had a different mother, he was more than shocked and asked if he could have any information or pictures. She showed him all three, they really looked a lot like him of course, he called the house with the listed number and obviously didn't get an answer. He decided to go to Sunset Valley and see if his father knew anything about the boys, he didn't care if the old man hated him, as far as he knew the jerk was reproducing just to abandon his kids and that wasn't right.
When he got there he stuck to himself, sure he wanted to find these boys so they weren't left alone, but he was feeling more and more nervous about the situation. One night he considered going to the movies just to work through his thoughts, he figured he would catch the late show. When he arrived back to the hotel he only slept a short time before going to the hotel kitchen to get something to eat. On his way back to his room he spotted Dustin, at first he thought he was just seeing things but a second good look told him that was his brother, or halfbrother. He walked down to talk to him and hoped for the best, he didn't look too happy.

Nancy was confused after Geoffrey let her go to shower, she went to check her bar to see if she drank some outdated juice, and that caused her to hallucinate. She shook her head and decided she needed to stop, she could try as hard as she wanted to make her life better with juice but deep down she knew that wouldn't help. She went downstairs and saw Malcolm getting some jam and toast, she patted his back and he watched her pour some cereal for herself.
"Mom are you alright?" he asked.
"I'm fine...I think, how are you darling?"
"I'm fine."
They ate together in silence, she absently looked out the window to the Alto manor and saw Vita getting into the car with Skip, she wondered what was going on, but still her ego was bruised if he wanted Vita over her then let the snob have him. She turned her attention to her son instead.
It was sort of nice to just chat with him without a fog of juice clouding her mind.
