CHEY

Three days had passed and I got no closer to figuring out what was going on. I went through the last three days even once stopping by free, but max just said that "Nothing had been figured out yet." And left it at that. I texted Sam, but he didn’t have any good answers for me either. I think he was hoping for something more from me than what I gave. His answers were clipped and stilted, like that wasn’t the questions he wanted to be answering.

On a positive side, I didn't get any more notes. I didn't feel like anyone was watching me. But something didn't feel right, like something was going to happen, I just didn't know what.

While in the middle of a parts run that was nearly out of town, I got a call from Nina, a worker at Janie’s daycare who worked the front desk.

“Cheyenne? This is Nina Baker. I have a lady, Anna Stevens, and she is saying she is Janie’s mother. I don’t have a consent form here for her to pick her up. Also I am not sure on whether she is even allowed to. So we would like to have you come up here and confirm her identity, and if you want her to be added to the list, we will need your brother’s signature documented on file as well.”

“Do not let her leave with Janie. She signed over her rights to Janie when Janie was a little over a month old. She does not have permission.”

“Ok, that is fine Cheyenne, but Ms. Baker is refusing to leave until she gets Janie.” She said worriedly.

“I’ll be there as soon as I can; it will be about 20 minutes. I’m going to call someone to see if they can get there to talk to her faster than I can be there. I’ll be as quick as I can.” I said hanging up to immediately dial Sam.

He picked up on the 3rd ring, sounding huffy when he finally answered.

“Yeah?” he said

“HI, it’s Cheyenne. I have a problem, and I don’t know who else to call.”

“What do you need?” he said, sounding all business now.

“I got a call from my niece’s daycare that her mother is there. She signed all of her rights-” I said before I was interrupted.

“I know all of that. Do you need me to go up there?” he asked

“Please, if you don’t mind. I’m still over fifteen minutes away, and I don’t want her to get anywhere near Janie.”

“Alright, I’m right around the corner.” I heard him say as his bike flared to life in the background.

“Thank you, I’ll be there as soon as I can. Later.” He hung up.

I let out a sign of relief and slowed down a bit now that I knew that Anna wasn’t going to be able to take off with her.

I arrived at the daycare to hear a woman screeching, and Sam’s low calm voice saying, “You need to step outside.”

I raced up the steps and in through the open door to see a much older looking Anna trying to squeeze past Sam. It was obvious that he wasn’t going to move, and I wasn’t sure why Anna couldn’t see that. Nina was hovering in the background with a phone up to her ear talking to who I assumed were the cops.

I walked up to Anna and said, “You need to leave, Anna.”

She spun around and I got my first good look at her face. She looked like she aged twenty years since I last saw her. Her clothes looked like they had seen better days, and I was thankful that the daycare had such a good system in place that kept people from coming and taking the kids, even if they were the parents. I was also thankful that Sam had dropped everything and raced over here to protect Janie.

Anna gave me a sneer and said, “She’s my kid! I can take her if I want.”

“You haven’t seen that “kid” in almost two years, let alone the fact that you signed your rights away to her. You need to get lost before the cops show up.” I said rather calmly, even though I was feeling anything but calm.

She tried to force her way past Sam, but he just put his hand up to stop her and she did. She narrowed her eyes at him, and hauled her arm up like she was going to hit him. Lightning quick, he caught her hand before it could make contact, twisted it around and pinned her arm behind her back, all the while marching her towards the door. At that she came unglued and started struggling in earnest. It didn’t faze him. He picked her up by the arms and carried her bodily outside.

Once outside, Sam quickly let her go and pulled the door closed so she couldn’t get back in. He held the knob until Nina came up and manually locked it so no one could enter and exit. Sam turned and looked at me, asking with his eyes if I was ok.

I nodded at him, and gave him a small smile.

“What happened?” I asked.

“She was starting to head in the direction of the rooms when he got here.” Nina said while pointing at Sam. “He came in and blocked her way to the rooms, and I called the cops. She looked like she had been here before; she knew exactly where she was going. She had the code to the outer door and everything!”

Speaking of the cops, red and blue lights were blinking through the windows. A cop walked up to the door and knocked lightly. Nina opened the door and let him in. The cop and Sam seemed to know each other, so Nina and I left Sam alone to explain what had happened.

“She’s gone. Ill file a report, but other than that there is not much more I can do until she actually does something more.” The cop said to me.

“So what, she actually has to kidnap her next time for you to be able to do something?” I asked heatedly.
