Part 12: As usual, Carol joins Luke, Ruth, and Daisy during their activities. Carol has to remind Luke of certain facts about Bikini Beach.

Part 6: Lucy goes through the next few days.

Kidnapped Pt 1 Revised

By Kyle

This is my story, I posted it here around three years ago under another name. I decided to revisit this uncompleted story revised it and complete it.

My son was taken from me when he was only eight years old. That event that shattered both of our lives, but my son was hurt far worse than I was. I have been trying to heal him. He will not talk about what happened to him, but it was bad enough that it turned a kind and loving eight year old boy into a boy full of anger and hatred by the time he was thirteen.

(Miri makes a promise to her son and her husband breaks his.)

Dottie’s Birthday Dream

Author's note: This could very well be the last Dottie story. I hope you've enjoyed the series as much as I have writing them.

(Miri sets the mood for that difficult discussion with her husband about their son. Will it soften the blow?)

The therapist sighed.

"I'm sorry, but it doesn't work that way..."
