Chapter 25

Chapter 25

Nancy sees Diane and Brandon a bit nervous about meeting Venna and Rico. Just then the door bell goes Nancy went to answer the door. Few minutes later she brings Venna and Rico into the room.

“You must be Diane.” Said Venna as looks at Diane. Diane nods her head yes. “You must be Brandon.” Said Rico. Brandon nods his head as they shake hands. “Do you want anything to drink?” Asks Nancy to Venna and Rico. Both shakes their heads yes. Nancy leaves.

“You are probably wondering why we took so long to make contact with you.” Asks Venna to Diane and Brandon. “We weren’t too sure if you wanted to know us. Plus our parents didn’t want us to contact you at all. I was a teenager when I had you both. They wanted us to give you up for adoption.” Said Venna. Both Diane and Brandon were shocked to hear this.

“We wonder what background we are from.” Said Brandon as he sees Nancy enters the room with the drinks. “This is Nancy.” Said Diane as she passes the drinks to Venna and Rico. Rico explains their background to them. Nancy hears Eniko crying. “Please excuse me.” Said Nancy as she goes upstairs to get Eniko.

(Later)

“I am glad they found us.” Said Brandon as he plays with Mack and Jimmy. “We are going to keep in contact with them as well” Said Diane as she picks a book to read.

(It is Eniko’s second birthday)

“Happy Birthday Eniko” said Mack and Jimmy. Everyone sings happy birthday to Eniko. Nancy helps Eniko to blow out the candles. Jimmy and Mack help Nancy to hand out the cake to everyone. Then they went to give Eniko her presents Mack and Jimmy help her out.

Henry watches them play with the new toys. “Both boys really love Eniko.” Said Henry. Nancy agrees. “Yes one helps her to sit up as the other one plays with her. They also take turns.” Said Ed as he watches them. “When does Eniko to have her operation?” Asks Cindy to Nancy. “Tomorrow afternoon.” Replies Nancy.

(Next Day)

“It is time to go to the hospital.” Said Nancy as she gets Eniko ready. “I will go with you Nancy.” Said Ed as he helps her. They leave. “I hope Nancy can hold up.” Said Diane as she watches them leave. “Aunt Diane can we do a craft?” Asks Jimmy. “Sure you can.” Replies Diane as she and the boys went to the kitchen. “I think Nancy will let us know how the operation went.” Said Henry. Cindy agrees.

The phone rings Cindy answers it. She talks for a few minutes then hangs up. “Was that Nancy?” Asks Henry to Cindy. “Yes it was. They took her to the operation room.” Replies Cindy. Jimmy and Mack enter the room. “Look what we made for Eniko, mom and dad.” Said Jimmy as he shows them the craft they made.

“I love it. I am sure your mom will love it too.” Said Cindy as she gives them a big hug. “Has anyone seen Brandon?” Asks Henry. The others shake their head no. “He was gone before I got up.” Said Diane. Suddenly the door opens and Brandon enters he walks a few steps then he just collapsed on the floor.

Henry runs towards Brandon. “What happened Brandon?” Henry asks him. “Some men jump me when I was heading home.” Said Brandon weakly. “ I am going to call the ambulance and the police.” Said Cindy as she heads to the phone. “Brandon, did you see the men who beat you up?” Asks Henry to Brandon. “No, they came from behind me.” Replies Brandon.

Just then the doorbell went. Diane went to answer it. She was surprised it was Kristoff. “Hi Kristoff. What can I do for you?” She asks Kristoff. “I saw a attack on a young man and followed him here.” Replies Kristoff. “Please come in.” Said Diane as he leads him inside. She introduces everyone.

Ten minutes later the ambulance and the police are there. Kristoff tells about the attack on Brandon and what the men look like. The police write that down. “We will look into it.” Said one of the police officers.

“This young man needs to go to the hospital.” Said the doctor as he puts Brandon into the ambulance. “Cindy and Diane you can go I will stay here with the boys.” Said Henry. Cindy nods her head in agreement. “Thanks again Kristoff. I will call you when I hear anything.” Said Diane. “If Nancy calls I will let her know what happen here.” Said Henry as Cindy and Diane leave.

(At the hospital.)

“I am Dr. Flint, Brandon is very lucky to be still here. He has several broken bones.” Said Dr. Flint. “Are we able to see him?” Asks Cindy to Dr. Flint. “Yes. We probably need to put him into a drug coma for awhile he is in so much pain.” Replies Dr. Flint as they head to Brandon’s room.

They were shock to see how much pain Brandon is in. “Hey Brandon, how are you?” Asks Diane as she holds his hand. “Very sore.” He replies weakly. Dr. Flint explains what he is going to do. Brandon nods his head. “We will let Cadee know. “Said Cindy. “Can I stay here with Brandon?” asks Diane to Dr. Flint. “Yes, I better get started.” Said Dr. Flint as he puts the drug into Brandon’s IV.

Diane holds Brandon hand and watches “How fast does it work?” Asks Cindy to Dr. Flint. “Pretty fast.” As he checks Brandon out. Diane notices how sleepily Brandon is becoming. Few minutes later he is totally out cold. Dr. Flint puts him on oxygen mask. “That will help him breathe.” Explains Dr. Flint as they leave the room.

As they leave they see Nancy and Ed. They head over to them. “How is Brandon doing?” Asks Ed to Cindy. Cindy explains what happen to Brandon. “He had to go into a drugged coma. Whoever beat him up did a good job of it.” Finishes Cindy. Nancy was into shock to hear this. “The police have been called. They are looking for the men who did this. Kristoff saw it happen as well.” Said Diane.

“He will make it. Diane. He is a strong man.” Said Ed as he comforts her. “I know. I wish people will leave us alone.” Said Diane a bit angrily. “I know. We can’t change that. Change of subject how did Eniko’s operation went?” Asks Cindy to Nancy.

Nancy explains how the operation went. “She will be here for awhile.” Finishes Nancy. “ I wonder how long they plan to keep Brandon under for.” Asks Ed as he comforts Diane. “Until the bones heal.” Said Cindy.

(Back Home.)

“Well?” Asks Henry as he sees them enter. Cindy explains what they had to do Brandon. Then Nancy explains about Eniko’s operation. “I know Brandon will survive this. I am glad the operation went great.” Said Henry. “Any news about the guys that attacked Brandon?” Asks Cindy to Henry. “Yes they just called. They caught the men. They are holding them.” Said Henry as he fills them what the police said to them. “Yes I want to press charges to them.” Said Diane a bit angry.

“OK.” Said Henry as he fills Diane what to do. Just then Mack and Jimmy enter. “Here mom we made this for you.” Said Mack as he shows the craft he made. “Here is one for Eniko.: Said Jimmy as he shows the other craft on. “Wow, thanks. They are great.” Said Nancy as looks at them. Both boys smile at this.

“Aunt Diane, here is one for you and Uncle Brandon.” Said Jimmy as he hands Diane another craft they made. “Thanks guys.” Said Diane as she gives them a hug. “We wanted to make something for them too.” Said Mack. Diane smiles at this.

Just then the phone rings. Diane went to answer it. She talks for few minutes then she hangs up. “That was Kristoff asking how is Brandon is doing.” Diane explains. “I know he will pull thru Diane. I am glad he saw the guys who did this to him.” Said Henry. Diane nods her head in agreement.

Just then the phone rings again. Cindy answers it. She talks for awhile then she hangs up. “That was Dr. Flint. He needs to operate on Brandon. There is more damage that needs a operation.” Said Cindy. “How long will it take them to operate on Brandon?” Asks Henry. Cindy tells them.

“Why don’t people leave us alone?” Said Diane angry. “I have no idea. We need to stops this before some will gets killed.” Said Nancy. Ed agrees to this and asks, “What can we do? I know some vampires want to be left alone.” Nancy agrees to this. “I am going to talk to the police to see if there is any idea what we can do.” Said Nancy as she calls the police. Few minutes later she was done. “Well?” Asks Ed. Nancy explains what the police said to her.
