Sarah switched off the tape and hit rewind. Frowning she stood with her hand at the VCR waiting for the cassette to pop out. She shook her head.<br/>"What a dumb ass," she said to the machine. " He is alive. Mr. S could have killed him like he does those kids. But no Mr. S had compassion on him, Let him live. even tried to communicate with him, probably even was guarding him just like he did me."<br/><br/>The tape scrolled out and Sarah turned it over. A phone number and the name, Seth. She gathered her backpack, put the tape in it and headed up the basement stairs. Molly was stirring some gravy.<br/><br/>"Is everything okay? Did Daddy's VCR work? Did roaches crawl out?" Molly asked,<br/><br/>"yeah, its all good. Hey, I gotta run. Mom wants me to come home." Sarah said, feeling bad about lying to Molly.<br/><br/>She hurried out and fished her iPhone from her jeans pocket. Punching in the number, she listened to the ring and was about to hang up when a man's voice breathlessly answering,<br/><br/>"Hello?"<br/><br/>"Seth, this is Sarah."
