  Turns around looking out the window saying, “Saul, I love you, come back to me”. A few days later, at the flower shop, told Rhonda that Saul is not dead? Throughout the day, busy and packed with customers since it was Valentine’s Day and working overtime.

  Closing, grabs her purse says, “Bye Rhonda” counting money, replies, “Okay, be careful”, and pulled out a bottle of mace, says, “Don’t worry”, walked out the door. It was dark, 9:30 pm, kept glancing behind and paused hearing footsteps, running to the car, hands trembling hurried to get the keys, drop, bent down to pick them up, saw boots standing before her and cried out, “Oh no”.

  Swiftly, swept up, eyes huge gasped, “Oh my god, your alive?”

  Standing before Ella wearing a long black trench coat says, “Hey pretty baby”. Throwing her arms around Sebastian, held her tight and said, “I don’t have much time”. Pulls back, “What?”

  “I’m on the run, broke out”, shaking her head says, “Oh Sebastian”.

  “I’m a fugitive”.

  “Why, did you do this?”

  “Another year is to long behind bars for something I feel was justice”.

  “They are all dead”.

  “Aw maybe”, hanging head says, “Saul is gone”, and frown said, “I know Ella”. Hangs her head, lifts it up added, “I’m still here and will be back”.

  “Please come back”. Sad expression.

  “Promise, but need to get out of here”.

  “I understand, get in the car, I’ll watch you go before I take off”.

  “Oh Sebastian, please be safe”.

  “I will, no worries”.

  Got into the car, looks at him and knelt saying, “Hey do not tell my family I broke out, it would worry my maw,” shaking her head, “I won’t”.

  “How are my kids?”

  “Fine missing you”.

  “Aw, I miss them”.

  Staring, softly lips join, kissing deeply. Lips part and hated to, stood up shutting the door and window down says, “Bye Sebastian”.

  “Just for now, I will return”, and went to pull away, heard “ELLA”.

  Slams on the brakes, glanced out the window, Sebastian blew her a kiss and running away, Ella drove away crying all the way home.

  Pulling into the driveway, starts heaving, quickly got out vomits by the bushes.

  Seven months later, lay on the hospital bed, rose forward screaming out, “OH GOD GET IT OUT!”

  Standing right next to Ella, brushing her sweaty bangs back says, “Almost over sugar”. Grabs onto Brenda’s arm cries, “I hurt”.

  “Aw, I know you do”.

  Screams again the doctor said, “Okay time to push Ella”, held Brenda’s hand tightly, rose forward, pushed screaming, “OH MY GOD!”

  Baby cries and throws head back, Brenda smiling tears rolling, the doctor said, “It’s a girl”.

  Folds hands, bright smile says, “Oh Ella, you have another daughter”. Exhausted, breathing heavy replies, “This girl is Saul’s”, and eyes large, rose eyebrows asked, “What?”

  Turns over, gripping the pillow, tears rolling says, “The baby is Saul’s”. “Oh honey you sure, the doctor report”.

  “Must have made a mistake somehow, Saul is her daddy”.

  Stood shocked, glanced over at the nurses cleaning the baby, tears rolling mumbles, “Oh what a shame my son is not here to see his first beautiful daughter”.

  Gripping the pillow tears flow onto, quietly says, “He’s not dead, just can’t be, I know he’ll be back”.

  Heard, mumbles, “Oh lord how I wish my son was here to have witnessed this wonderful moment”.

  The nurse held the baby walking over to the bed Brenda smiling watched her latest granddaughter placed in mama’s arms and looking down at the baby Ella said, “Sandy”. “What dear?” Leans closer.

  “Her name is Sandy”.

  Tears rolling looking down at the baby, replied, “Perfect Ella”, kissed her baby and added, “Sandy Rae Wiley”.

  “Rae”, puzzled expression.

  “Yes middle name just like daddy’s middle name”, and Brenda cried out, “Oh Saul, why did you leave us!”

  Later that night, after many Wiley’s left, Ella tired, placed tiny Sandy into the bassinet looks down said, “Wish your daddy could have seen his beautiful girl”. Walked over by the bed, lay down yawns, tuning over facing the wall cries, “Oh Saul”, “Saul!”

  One hour later, Ella sound asleep, room dark, door opens quietly, sound of boots walking slowly across the room, stops by the bassinet.

  Suddenly, long manly fingers touches baby’s tiny fingers, playing with them, baby begins to fuss and turning over rubs eyes, rose up, saw the back of someone wearing a long dark trench coat, door shutting yells, “Sebastian?”

  Thank you for reading and hope you enjoyed the story.

  Join the Wiley family again on an unforgettable journey of happiness, sorrow, Second Chance.
