Secret Lives - Introduction
Holden entered his new home, he’d got away he was safe. But he’d lost almost everything. He smiled to the sounds of his daughter giggling in the other room.
Joanne tickled the little girl, she let out little bursts of laughter each time. Joanne didn’t know what to say to Holden he’d lost his family, his brothers, sister, mother and father all taken from him. She heard him coming to the room and place Kelly into her seat.
She turned around Holden pulled her close she let him hold her for a minute and moved away smiling. “I love you” he said, she replied “I love you too, let me just get Kelly something to eat”. She paced over to the fridge and grabbed some baby food.
“So..are you okay Holden?” She asked, he looked up at her “I’m..fine I’ve got you and Kelly..it will all be okay”. She looked at him and smiled “are you sure, you’ve just-” he butted in “I’m fine okay! Your safe, Kelly’s safe those people wont find us so were fine! No just stop going on alright?!” he yelled holding back the tears .
She slide her hand over to his, stroking it  “I’m sorry, I’m just worried but if you say it will be fine then that’s okay” she smiled at him hoping for him to open up. He gazed at her and smiled. “I miss them Jo, but I need to be strong we both do for Kelly”.
They moved their hands away “Why don’t we go work at the shop take your mind of things I’ll get someone to mind Kelly?” she asked hoping for a yes. He nodded and got up.
They worked in the shop together for a few hours and had made a good bit of money. They met a few of the locals and invited them over later, just to get to know them a bit more.
Late that night at home the guests arrived. Officer Nancy and Dan, Jo and Holden met them when they popped by to check out the shop they seemed nice and Jo wanted Holden to socialize. The night passed and Holden just sat there listening to them all talk, after a couple of hours they left.
The next morning Jo sat down near Holden. “You could have tried last night you know” she paused “Who knows how long well be here, Holden stop ignoring me!” she was getting frustrated , she couldn’t get through to him.
He looked up “I..just..I don’t know..I’m not ready okay just give me time”; he smiled and blew her a kiss. She gave a quick smile and headed to check on Kelly. Holden sat at the table he thought to himself ‘are we really safe here, they might find us, what if they do’. He stood up and knew he needed to be pre-pared if they did.
The cold hand lifted towards the telephone, the voice on the other line spoke “Hello, did you find them, are they alive?”. The person answered in a deep masculine voice “Yeh, their here but not all of them only one of the brothers is alive”. The voice on the line butted in “Okay, I know where the sister is, which brother survived?”, the voice paused “Holden, he’s with his family”. The voice on the line answered “You know what to do, well need them soon, so hurry”. Lifting the phone back up the cold hands ended the call.
Well that’s all for now but tune in next time for more!
