Twinsequences Ivy (Twisted Twin #2)(22)
I pulled my sister’s phone out of the diaper bag, turned it on airplane mode, to keep from receiving calls and entered the Wi-Fi password. I needed to get my travel booked and do away with the phone, so we couldn’t be traced. I wouldn’t need to call anyone after this was finished.
First, I needed to buy two train tickets. I’d get out of state and take a plane to an exotic location where we could settle down and start over. I’d imagined it in my mind, and planned on doing it with Rafe before Stoshua and Willow ruined it for me.
I hoped Rafe was looking down from heaven, watching my dreams finally coming true. I wondered if he’d be happy for me. Would he send some divine intervention to help me out?
Destiny looked bored. She’d been sitting with her brother for a few minutes, waiting for me to turn on a cartoon. Once I found something she adored, she got on her stomach and leaned her face on her hands to watch it. Little Marcus was next to me, propped up on a couple pillows. He was eating his own hands, drool soaking his bib. I kissed him a few times before getting back to the train schedule.
For a second I got side-tracked, imagining my sister tied to the rails, watching as a train approached to take her life. Then I decided it would be too quick. She wouldn’t suffer, because she’d die instantly. I didn’t want that for her. She needed to feel her body giving up. I wanted it to be painful, excruciating even.
I found a train leaving town in only two hours. It would be before noon, and probably before police would start scouring my sister’s property, discovering I’d taken them. I wondered if I should have cleaned up the blood in the bathroom, and left a note for someone to feed the cat, as if they’d taken a trip. It would have bought me more time, in case something were to go wrong. At any rate, they’d be checking the airports, not train stations hours away from the crime. I had to stay off the main roads anyway, because they’d issue an Amber alert for the children if they suspected foul play. They’d start looking for the van, which told me I needed new transportation.
I leaned down and looked at Destiny. “Hey, you. I need to run outside for a second. Remember, if they try to talk to you don’t do it. Our adventure will have to get cancelled. No matter what they do, don’t talk or touch them, okay?”
She was busy watching her cartoon, but nodded.
I pointed at the two adults. “Don’t make a move. If you screw up our adventure there will be hell to pay.”
Stoshua’s contusion was starting to bleed again. I walked into the bathroom and grabbed some toilet paper, hoping I could wrap it temporarily. He pulled away when I tried to help him. I took his ear and tugged hard on it, until he understood I was in control. Then I leaned down and whispered in his ear. “I can’t stop thinking about being in the shower with you this morning.”
My sister’s eyes flashed in my direction. “That’s right, Will. I had his cock in my mouth and he wasn’t complaining. It was like old times again.”
She struggled, but was unable to move. With that little bit of information simmering in, I walked out to talk to the owner in hopes of scoring a ride.
He was still in the same position, watching a game show on television with his hands crossed over his chest. When he saw me he started to get up. “No don’t get up on my account. I was wondering if you have a first aid kit I can borrow.”
He began to stand again. I ran to his side of the counter and helped him back down when he struggled. “I can get it. Just tell me where to look.”
He pointed in the back room. “It’s in there, in the first cabinet on the left. I used to keep it in the bathroom, but my niece said state law needs it to be in a closer location. I don’t know why the laws are always changing…”
I ignored the rest and walked into the private room. It was set up like a small one room apartment. There was a couch on one side of the room, and a kitchen area on the other. I checked in the cabinet and found the first aid kit, then scanned the area to look for a set of car keys. While he continued talking about laws and the government, I walked into a small bedroom area and found a wallet and a set of keys. I left the wallet and stuck the keys in my pocket before going out with the first aid kit. “I found it.”
“Oh good, good. I was worried she moved it again.”
“Nope. I opened it to check and make sure it had plenty of band aids. You know how kids are. Every little scratch needs attention.”
“Oh don’t I know. My kids were famous for that. Their mother had to kiss every spot they injured.”
I wasn’t about to stand there and hear about his children, how old they were, and what they did for a living. There weren’t enough hours in the day.
“I’ll bring this back when I’m done. I better get back to my kids.”
When I got back into the room, I found Willow on the floor, Destiny standing on the bed overtop of her. “Fairy godmother, you’re back. Mommy isn’t being good. She tried to get me to talk to her.”
“You did good, Destiny. Go on back to your show. I’ll take care of her.”
Willow looked disgusted, not that I gave a shit. I forced her back on the bed and stuck my lips up to her ear. “Try something like that again, and I’ll take you in the bathroom and butcher you in the shower, like that old horror movie you used to be scared of. Don’t push me, sister. I won’t let you screw this up.”
