Chapter 6

Chapter 6

(Next Morning)

Henry wakes up and has a big stretch and looks over at Nancy and sees she is still sleeping, so he goes to the bathroom to freshen up. After that he leaves the bathroom, then he goes and sits near Nancy and checks her out again. Then he picks the paper again for house listings. Just then Dr. Caine comes in and asks, “ I hope you don’t mind, I am going to check Nancy.” Henry nods his head and leaves the room.

Cindy has arrived back at the hospital. “How is Nancy doing?” she asks Henry. Henry notices Brandon and Diane are with her. “Dr. Tangaroa is with her now.” Henry said. Dr. Tangaroa leaves the room and spots Cindy. “Nancy has fully recovered and she can go home. I want her to take it easy for now.” Dr Tangaroa explains.

“That is good news” Says Brandon. Just then Nancy comes out of the room. Cindy smiles as she sees Nancy. “Ready to go home Nancy?” Cindy asks Nancy. “Yes. I am, One once condition.” Nancy said. Henry looks at her and asks “What?” Nancy smiles and grabs the paper from her Dad hand “I want to start looking at houses.” Nancy replies.


“Are you up to it Nancy?” asks Henry. Nancy nods her head. “Yes, I don’t want to stay in the house and watch TV all day. If I do get tired I can always sleep in the car.” Nancy replies. Dr Tangaroa replies, “That is fine, but don’t over do it.”


(Later)

“Can we have the news on?” Asks Nancy to Henry. Henry turns on the car radio for the news. The newscasters said the suspect is still at large. The police aren’t giving any details about the crime. Henry turns off the radio. “I hope the cops does catch him, I don’t want him to do this another person at all.” Says Henry. Nancy just nods her in agreement.

“I wonder why people to do that to others” asks Brandon. Cindy shrugged her shoulders and replies, “ I have no idea either, I agree with Henry he needs to be caught and pay for his crimes. Right now I want to house hunting now, we might not find the right house today and our house to too small for the five of us.” Says Cindy. Brandon is listening to what his mom said and replies “ If Nancy agrees with this idea I can stay with her until we do find the prefect house for us.”

“That is fine with me Brandon Hey dad what about this house?” Says Nancy as she reads the address to Henry. “Lets check it out. Then we can play it by ear.” Says Henry.

(At the house)

Cindy looks at the house with amazement. “I hope they don’t mind vampires looking at their house.” Said Cindy, as she steps out of the car. A man comes and greets them “Hi, are you looking for a house?” asks the man. Henry replies, “ Yes, we are just starting to look.” The man was surprised to see vampires. To come to look at this house. “I am Mac, I can show you around if you like?” Said Ted.

“OK.” Says Henry. Ted leads the way to the house. “What is the history of this house?” asks Cindy as she gets a better glance at it. Ted explains the history of the house. “So it has been empty for a long time?” Asks Nancy. Ted nods his head and replies, “The price has come down so it will sell faster, but people are not interested in this house.” Brandon is looking at the kitchen “ This place has a great kitchen” Said Brandon. Cindy Comes over and looks at it. “What happen to the original owners?” Asks Cindy.

Ted explains to them the history of the first owners. “They didn’t have any children to leave the house too. It has a good size yard. As well and enough rooms as well. Please look around I will be in the living room.” Said Mac as he walks to the living room. Nancy and her family look around the house. “I like this house already” says Cindy. Henry agrees and replies, “ We better ask how much it is.”

“I agree too, there are some places we can fix up. But it is prefect of us” Says Nancy. Diane nods in agreement. “You keep looking I will go and find out how much this place is then we can go from there.” Said Henry as he leaves them. Cindy nods her head in agreement.

“Are you OK Nancy?” asks Brandon worried about her. “I am just getting tired that is all, I am going to the car to have a sleep for awhile.” Nancy replies as she heads back to the car. “I am sure she will be fine after a good sleep, it could be morning sickness.” Said Cindy as she watches Nancy leaves the house.

“This place is a good deal, I told Ted we will have a meeting and let him know what we decided” Said Henry as he came back. “How much is this place” Asks Cindy. Henry tells them what Ted said to him. “That is a good deal, it is really cheap, and we don’t have to sell ours, we can fix it up and rent the house to a family.” Says Cindy.

“Where is Nancy?” asks Henry as he notices Nancy isn’t with them. Diane replies, “She was getting tired so she went to the car to have a nap.” Henry tells them that he likes the house and what the others think about it. Brandon replies, “I love it, I has so much room for all of us. Yes, it does needs some work on it but this place is for us. That is how I feel.” Cindy nods in agreement and said, “ I think Nancy is happy with this place as well, I could tell by her face.”

“So then we can put in the offer in then? To me it looks like Ted wants this house sold and out of his hands.” Said Henry. Cindy nods in agreement and replies “Put in a offer and see what happens. Then we can worry about the other house later.” Henry smiles and heads back to Ted to tell him they are putting in a offer.

“ I hope we will get this house, I am falling in love with it.” Says Diane as she is getting a bit excited. Brandon looks at his sister with the same feeling. Henry comes back with the keys. “We can move in any day.” Said Henry. Cindy goes over and hugs Henry. “Cool, I want to start now, but we need to go thru our place and Nancy’s as well to see what we can get rid of as well.” Replies Cindy excited to have a bigger home.


(Later back at their old house.)

“How are you feeling Nancy?” asks Cindy as Nancy sits down at the table. “Better after that nap. I know it isn’t from that drug. It is my guess it is morning sickness.” Replies Nancy as she watches her mom going thru the cupboards. “Could be Nancy, I still want you to take it easy, We are deciding to fix this place up and rent it out, with yours we are going to sell yours if that is ok with you.” Cindy replies as she continues with her job. “That is fine with me. I am going to change the topic here what is the news about the house?” asks Nancy.

“We got it, with no hassle. It was really cheap and plus Brandon and Diane totally fell in love with it before we bought it.” Replies Cindy as she sits down to take a break. “I did too it is big of all of us. Mom is ok if I use your bed? I want to take another nap.” Said Nancy. Cindy nods her head “You can Nancy, you do look tired. I will make sure no one will bother you.” Replies Cindy as she gets a hug from Nancy.

Nancy leaves the room; Diane enters “I hope Nancy will be OK.” Said Diane as she watches Nancy enters Cindy’s room. “It is my guess it is morning sickness that is making her tired. I don’t want you or your brother making to much noise. I want Nancy to have a chance to sleep.” Cindy replies. Diane nods in agreement and asks, “Where should I put the boxes I packed already?” Cindy stops and thinks “ Just pile them up neatly in the living room. Dad is getting a moving truck so we can move it to the new house. After that we need to figure out rooms we are going to have.” Replies Cindy.

“There are two bigger rooms there, I was thinking, give one of the bigger rooms to Nancy.” Says Diane as she starting to help Cindy with the cupboards. “That is a good idea. I am sure Nancy will be happy with that choice.” Replies Cindy after the last box has been packed and placed in the living room with the others. “Are we going to Nancy’s place to go thru hers?” Asks Diane as she gets something to nibble on. “Yes, but I want her to be there in case there are things that she wants to keep.” Cindy Replies.

Brandon enters the room with the last box “This is the last box mom, should I put it with the others?” Brandon asks. Cindy nods as she heads over to her room to check on Nancy.
“Yes please, please watch for dad and help him with the boxes.” Cindy replies as she enters the room and closes the door.
