Get Your Spy On

Get Your Spy On Chapter 25

“I talked to Sandy. I followed her. I didn’t ask her all the questions I wanted to ask her, partly because we were going to get shot eventually, and partly because you should be the one who tells me.”

Mom clears her throat. “It’s really early for this. I won’t be able to get my words right, but I’ll try anyways. Before I met your father, I had a boyfriend, and he got me pregnant. After Sandy was born, he told me he was a secret agent. Sandy became a secret agent by blood, but I dumped him, angry for doing this to our child. I took her away, and ended up dating your dad with toddler Sandy in tow. We got married, and then I found out I was pregnant again. With you. When you were born, the Alpha showed up with a gift. When I found out you were going to be a spy, I nearly threw a punch at your father. I was so angry.”

“So, you ended up creating a spy and secret agent. Congrats. Now what? You pretended to be stupid? I had to take care of you two while my father’s airplane crashed! Who is that sick minded? Guess what? I found him, and I’m going to get him. “

“How do you think it was for me?”

I shake my head. “No, how do you think it was for me? Why couldn’t you and dad take me away? Now I have to do it myself, dragging you two along with me. How come I ended up being the adult? Spy and secret agent parents are messed up.”

I stand up and start walking back to the house. She’s calling my name, but I don’t say anything or react. I slam the door, and walk up the stairs to my room. What am I doing? There’s only one person I need to talk to. One person I can rely on.

I call Alex. He answers on the first ring. “Hey, girlfriend.”

“Alex, it’s-“

“MOM!”

My brain momentarily freezes, and then I run to the guest bedroom. I fling the door open, and see Wendy and her mother. Her water broke. Oh my. I put the phone to my ear. “Alex-“

“On my way. I’ll pick up Eric.”

I throw the phone down, and then Wendy and I start ripping out the cameras. My mother walks in, and Wendy yells for her. Mom hurries up the steps to Wendy’s mom, and Wendy and I crush cameras. I put checkmarks on the camera’s we destroyed on the map, and then when we’re done. I hear the sound of the front door opening.

Alex’s POV

“Eric, hurry up!”

Eric has packed a duffel bag for some dumb reason. I’m the one who’s staying with her after all. While he gets to play Mr. Hero with my girlfriend, I get to watch a woman give birth. Fun day.  Eric gets into my truck, his brimming duffel bag by his feet.

“Are you ready for this?” I ask him, racing down the street, not bothering to see if I’m cutting anyone off. I know I’ve past a few stop signs already.
