Mama'S Twin
Move over
"Julie, you're so pale. Are you sick?" ask Athena.
"No. Don't worry, Athena. I'm just a little tired" replied Julie.
Athena watched the room. There was a large suitcase and a tote bag in the corner.
"Where else would you go with a stomach this big. Don't worry you any more" Athena said in an anxious tone.
"Calm down. Did you come here by yourself?" ask Julie curiously.
"Yes. I drive my car. I got Dario's man trapped in the foster home with the kids and I sneaked in here and left him."
"What's? How come?"
"That's not important. Long story. The important thing is to answer my question first. Where are you going with this stuff?" Athena looked at him in wonder.
"I'm going home to the apartment" replied Julie.
Athena spontaneously hugged him again.
"I'm so grateful you said that. You know I'm so worried about you. Dario's looking for you. He was as worried as I was" said Athena.
Julie fell silent. Yeah, correct. He even listened to himself how desperate Dario was to look for him.
"Yes, I know. I'm listening to your conversation." Julie's back moody.
"Have you told Dario you're coming back?" ask Athena.
"Not yet."
"Why?"
"Athena, she'll definitely pick me up right now. You know what he looks like. I don't want Aunt Elly to be sad. This plan is sudden. Let me stay here last night. Tomorrow I'll say," replied Julie.
Athena nodded in understanding.
"Kids, eat. I cooked meat soup and picked apples in the garden" Aunt Elly exclaimed at the doorstep.
Athena and Julie nodded with a smile. They then had dinner together.
***
Night's come. Aunt Elly hugged Julie with affection.
"Go back here again. You have to promise," he said sadly.
"Of course, Auntie." Julie reassured.
"I'll stay here too, Auntie. Tomorrow I'll help you prepare breakfast. Julie said she wanted to go to Suresh City Central Hospital. I'll take her to the hospital and then take her to the apartment" said Athena.
"alright. You promised to visit me, too" Aunt Elly told Athena.
"Calm Auntie. I'll pick you up whenever you ask. The kids in the foster home miss you." Athena says.
They slept in the middle room. It feels like having a mother. Athena and Julie loved the lonely old woman.
While in foster homes. Jimmy was confused. Athena's missing.
Lena said Athena was fine and fell asleep in her room because she was tired.
Jimmy, who couldn't believe it, wanted to check it out. He could be fired if Athena escapes.
Lena said no men can enter the castle. Lena also said that she didn't want to wake Antennas out of pity. Jimmy looked frustrated.
Soon he had to report to his superiors and the change of officers. Ah, he said Athena didn't seem out all day.
Jimmy felt Athena tricked him.

On that sunny morning Julie called Anna's doctor. The doctor was surprised to hear his voice.
"I'd like to see you. Doctor Felana at Delphi hospital recommends your name." Julie was honest.
"A, Julie. Thank goodness you're okay. I'm worried about you too. Come between 9 or 10. I'll be in the hospital early. Actually my schedule's at one in the afternoon. But you're my special patient." Doctor Anna looked pleased.
"Oh, of course," said Anna's doctor after a moment of silence. He seemed doubtful.
Athena dragged the suitcase and put it in the trunk of her car.
"What's he saying, Julls?" ask Athena.
"Nine or ten hours he'll be in the hospital. We were asked to come" Julie said.
"Goodoo. We better get ready."

Aunt Elly wiped her tears with the end of her shirt. He waved his hand sadly.
Athena's car drove slowly away from the cozy courtyard of the summer home.
Julie stroked her bulging stomach. Atehana is focusing on driving.
"We didn't fill out the hospital administration data like back then?" ask Athena.
"No. We went to see Anna's doctor. Dario said Mrs Sanio could access all the hospital data because the hospital president was a good friend. My name better not be there. Anna's doctor set it up" Julie said.
Athena nodded in understanding. He had seen Mrs Sanio at the time in the hospital. His figure was truly frightening.
They arrived at the hospital. Athena parked her car close to the lobby.
They entered and walked down the corridor to Anna's doctor's office. Let him come early. He did not want Anna's doctor who had taken the time to wait for him.
On the bend towards the corridor, an old woman was being seen calling and walking in a hurry. He hit Athena.
"Hey, look around the street" she exclaimed at Athena.
The woman continued walking while receiving a call.
Julie held Athena's hand trembling. He was a little surprised.
"That's Madam Maria. She's the mother of Celia Adams" Julie whispered to Athena.
Athena seemed to not understand. Yes, he does not know anything about Celia and her family.
Julie recognized Maria Adams because she had been to the office several times when she was Dario's secretary.
But it seems like the Madam doesn't recognize him.
"We must follow him" Julie whispered to Athena. Athena complies and follows Julie.
"We pretended to be chatting," Julie said as she sat back to the old madam. Athena according to what Julie said.
The nurse pushed the patient out of the therapy room.
"Let's go home now" said Madam Maria.
"No. I'll wait for Travis Topper for a moment" said the old man.
Julie didn't dare look back. He had no idea what Frans Adams looked like. But seeing the story and the football in Papa Dario's secret book alone has made him goosebumps.
"What are you talking to your friend for. Don't waste my time" said the old woman in annoyance.
"It's important. I'm not chatting. I'll watch him for important business. His son became an official at Dante Bank. I'm gonna try to take down Omar Axton's safe. Shut up, chatty woman." Frans Adams was also upset with his wife.
Julie's eyes widened as soon as she heard the words Dante Bank and Omar Axton.
Dario should know about this. Where did Frans Adams find out about Dante Bank and the safe?
Julie's hands were sweating nervously. Athena clasped her hand in worry.
The distance between the four of them was only a few meters.
