VINCE WENT TO SEARCH FOR SIDNEY
Gritting her teeth and clenching her fist tightly, Chrystal knows once again her plan has flopped and she doesn't know what to do to stop Vince, "Darling," holding his hand, "I can't believe you mean that."
"I said to leave me alone," pushing her away from him as he walks away, Shouting, "Because of you I can't even get to see how GP is doing. I must make this right, I must try and find her before her family."
Vanda notices he brushes the tears away as he ran up to his room. 'I am a part of his heartache because I value my friendship more than my brother's or grandfather's decision. Now they are all hurting because I conspired with this fool.'
It wasn't even five minutes when his door opened and he was holding a travelling bag on his shoulder, he had changed from the short pants ad vest to black jeans and a white open-front polo jersey.
He seems serious and determined to find her, watching as he grab his keys and hurried through the front door not even looking at Chrystal.
Wiping the blood from her face as she stood up from where Vince had pushed her, Chrystal know deep within her heart he didn't mean that, going to Vanda, holding her hand. "Vanda, you have to speak with Vince he has forgotten the original plan."
Shaking her hand away from Chrystal then looks at her face and sees the tears flowing down, at that moment Chrystal wonders if she will help she seems as though she is in a trance or in shock.
Seizing the opportunity saying, "Vanda listen to me, your brother is going to make a big mistake if he finds his wife and brings her back here in this house and into his life."
When she shouted at her Chrystal see her eyes red like blood, knowing she was also angry with her, 'Oh God it seems as though I have burned the bridge here so with the two doors close what am I going to do?
He said for me to leave, when Vanda said, "Just get the hell out Chrystal, I have had enough of your interference, right now, GP's, life is in danger and you have the gull to ask me to stop Vince.
Vince might be the only one to save him, he has to find Sidney, she is the one to save his life. You may not know this but Sidney and GP have been friends for years.
And another thing you have brought us more heartache than happiness, do you know what it would be like having no money?
I should have never joined hands with you in your scheme, but I did warn you that if it comes where I have to choose, I hope you know I will be choosing my family and Chrystal that including Sidney if she will make Vince happy."
Having no choice Chrystal walks out slowly hoping and praying that they don't find her and that she needs to contact James to get rid of her once and for all.
Also, he needs to know she left the house and to find her knowing Vince is going to Long Beach so she must be hiding in that area.
Vanda had only reached in front of GP's room only to hear Michael saying in a polite note, "Miss Vanda no one is allowed into GP's room."
Vanda knows Uncle Richard was angry with them, 'Who can blame him they have been constantly warning us about Chrystal but every time she calls I submit to her sweet talk and give in, now we are rebuked, ridiculed, disallowed and cashless because I could not say no to her.'
"Just tell me how he is doing please Michael, then I will go and help Vince look for his wife."
After driving for almost two long hours, stopping when he reaches Long Beach, and checking apartments, guest houses, and hotels no one had a Sidney Montrose or Montgomery registered.
Tired and frustrated Vince decide to get a room for the night, "Thank God, I didn't spend the money her mother returns to GP, now it has come in so handy."
Getting a map, Vince checks out areas and towns she might search for jobs. "I will start early in the morning, staying here will give me a head start in front of her family. I am sure her family has returned home."
Called her phone umpteen times that evening but it keeps going into voice mail. "Oh God, I don't expect an answer to my prayer, I don't deserve anything but please Lord, I beg you to help me to find her.
Lord keep her safe, this place is not too safe for her alone. I miss her so much; I am so sorry for throwing away the one chance I got.
I know when she is near to me, I hear that song in my head, I have never told her what I feel or hear when she is near me but I need to know which town she is in, please give me a sign. Lord, I love her and Lord touch GP, and help him to feel better."
Calling Charles, to enquire how GP, was doing, hearing he hasn't regained consciousness as yet Vince pleaded with him, "Please Charles, take care of him, I know I have disappointed him and everyone else, but I must make things right.....Sorry Charles, I won't be returning home until I find her. I need to go now; my money on my phone is almost done and I must try calling Sidney."
Vince leaves a message on her phone after calling so many times and she didn't pick up, After his shower, he lies down hoping and praying she will listen to the message and reply.
****
Returning to the room she rented after she had gotten her dinner, Sidney checks her phone seeing fifty missed calls, Jeff called, George calls a few times and there were a few from the house which means Haley is calling.
Twenty-five, messages and voice notes alone are from Vince, reading the few messages he sent and then listening to the few voice messages.
Sidney felt hurt knowing if she didn't leave the house, Grandpa would be okay. Calling his number to see if it was a trick of Vince.
