Take Over, Your Story Part II


The sheriff wondered where she lived as he thumbed through the book trying to get more information on the author. He couldn’t locate an exact location. He could only surmise from her description in the book that she was captured in a desolate place. A lot like Ed was. Sheriff Blake could only assume that the more desolate the place the less likely they, the aliens, would be spotted. But why choose who they chose to experiment on...
 


Back at the police department Deputy Robert “Bobby” Felles began to worry why he hadn’t heard from Ed lately. He walked over to the camera and noticed that Ed wasn’t sleeping. He was just sitting on the cold metal bench that is inside the jail cells. Concerned for his well being Bobby decided to go into the holding cells to make sure he was okay.


“Ed? Hey buddy you okay.” Felles says tapping on the metal bars with his keys. Ed just sat there humming intensely.


“Ed!” Felles shouts, “What is wrong with you.” Heeding what the sheriff told him Deputy Felles goes into another cell block and retrieves some water from the sink and returns to confront Ed.


This time Ed is standing up facing the bars. Both his hands are grasping the cold steal as he looks at Felles.


“Hi Deputy Felles”, Ed said cool, collected and calm.


“Ed what is the matter with you? I went and got you some water.” Deputy Felles hand shook as he presented the water to Ed but Ed didn’t move.


“Go on Ed, take it. I know it isn’t your beverage of choice but a little water never did anyone no harm.”, Felles said trying to ease the situation.


Ed stared at Deputy Felles. He had a slight smile to his face and cocked his head to the left. “Okay Deputy Felles, thank you for the water.” Ed reaches out and takes the cup from his hand.


Deputy Felles jumped back slightly. He was expecting Ed to do something other than grab the water but that never transpired.


Haha - Deputy Felles laughs. “Whoa, okay then, well enjoy the water Ed.” Deputy Felles said while turning to go back out to the desk.


Oh. Deputy Felles”, Ed said, “Can you come back here for a second. I’d like to tell you something”, Ed said calmly and with a smile.


Sheriff Blake was still in his patrol car reading the book to shed more light on Ed’s situation. Ed’s awkward behavior has really concerned him. Ed’s been arrested numerous times over the years and his behavior had never been this strange. Something was going on with him, but what was it? And if aliens existed why did they pick a known drunk and petty thief to dissect. Did they know what they were getting themselves into with this one?


Towards the end of the book that Sheriff Blake was reading in fast forward mode, he caught the name Clara in the wording. He stopped suddenly on the page and began to read.


I was in an interview with them and they asked me my name, Clara I said in my haze. It was almost like a dream. Like having a flash back into my memory that is real but not quite really sure if it was for real. It seemed like they were comparing notes to what was in my memory. Reaffirming the information that they had stole from me. Clara May Hamilton is my full name. I lived in Kansas my whole life, I told them. I lived on the farm that my daddy and brothers owned tending to a large dairy farm. In the small town, I was from, there wasn’t much to do but go out in the fields, build bomb fires, drink, smoke, and have sex with other farmer boys. They seemed intrigued by my way of life. How no one took me seriously. For a girl I drank too much and smoked too much weed. It seemed that they were interested in that and I can’t figure out why. Once they confirmed the information I felt like I was indoctrinated with some of their own personal theories and beliefs. I don’t think that they expected me to remember. In all their intelligence I guess they took me for a small time idiot. If they would have delved deeper into my mind they would have scene that I skipped several grades because of my learning capacity. My father felt that since I was already born smart I didn’t need school. So he withdrew me from classes and I worked on the farm with my brothers.


I don’t think that aliens thought I had the capacity to remember. But I do. I can’t forget something so horrific like that time in wherever hell they had me in…

Sheriff Blake begins to think. Trying to connect the dots with what was going on with Ed. He then used his laptop in the car to search for any information about Clara in Kansas that he could.


Part III Is already to go...

"Far Away"

You are here: Home » "Far Away" May 5th, 2012 For mommy in heaven… My kids wouldn't let me sleep last night. I kept them busy all afternoon and evening, yet they were still very hyper. I picked Nico up from school at 2:00 o'clock P.M. and decided to take them for a road trip to Broward County. It's a close drive from where we live. I am just one county over to the north. I didn't feel like going home and falling into the same routine. I wanted to stimulate the boys so that they would sleep later that night. Honestly, maybe we all could get some sleep that night. It's hard to get motivated in life when you are sleep-deprived. Nico leaves class about 10 minutes earlier than the rest of the school. Since he was a premature baby, he has had a learning delay with speech. The State of Florida placed him in a program called Early Steps. It's a great program, and it allows him to catch up to the rest of his peers academically so that by the time h...

Hi Mama. Bye Mama

You are here: Home » Hi Mama. Bye Mama. June 26, 2012 Hi mama. Bye, mama. And so it goes. Up the street, hi, mama, down the street, bye, mama. The boys know where they can find mommy. It's just down the road, a path we take every day. Everywhere we go. We go with the flow. Hi mama. Bye, mama. It always starts the same, the familiar path of the road the boys have become accustomed to. It doesn't matter what we do; we will always pass right on through; regardless of how we travel, mom will always be on their left or their right. She's never too far out of sight. Hi mama. Bye, mama. The boys anticipate the car ride. They look on either side as we drive by, seeking a clear view of their mama to be seen through. They eagerly await with no other thought on their plate. They are just waiting for the moment to see their number one visually. Hi mama. Bye, mama We are getting closer now; they look at Dad, their pal. Their smiles reach from ear to ear, knowing the time is near...

Anatomy of a Loss

You are here: Home » Anatomy of a Loss July 5, 2012 When you lose someone that you love and that you depend on, it feels like everything around you has just crashed and burned. It doesn't matter what is happening in the world because yours just got charred beyond recognition. You are forced to reprogram everything about you. Who you are. What your path in life was. The goals you had planned. Everything before the death of a loved one is scraped.  Your mind wanders about aimlessness, and you just go over your mind time and time again about how you will be able to do it. Where do you go from here? You are afraid and bewildered because you are unsure what to do and who to turn to. You find that you question God and yourself and examine everything about your life.  The doubts set in about yourself, and you want to return to the day before so badly just to reassure yourself that everything ...
