The following morning, Mac picked up Stella, and Mackenzie. "How was she last night"? "Okay...a little restless, but the nurse gave her something, to help her sleep". "Hi sweetheart, how you feeling"? "I'm okay daddy, it hurts real bad, and I'm so sleepy". "I know love, let's get you home, where you can rest".
After stopping at the Pharmacy, to pick up Mackenzie's painkiller's, they arrived home, where Michael and Caroline were waiting at the door. "Mackenzie, oh...how are feeling, cried Caroline. "I'm okay, don't cry Caroline, I'm fine". Heading upstairs, Caroline followed, to make sure, her sister didn't need any help.
"Would you like me to get you anything"? "Yes please, can you ask daddy, to bring up my pain killer, with some water". "Sure, I'll be right back". When her sister left the room, Mackenzie teared up, from the pain. "Sweetie, here's your medication, swallow it down, and dad will tuck you in". "Dad...I'm too big, to be tucked in". "You are never to big, for daddy's love".
Tucking his daughter in, he sat down, until she fell asleep. Once she was out, he headed back downstairs. "Stel, I'm going to head out for a while, there are a few things, I want to check into". "Sure...I'll see you soon, as she kissed him good bye. "I love you sweetheart"? "I love you too Mac".
As Mac was driving down, he noticed he was being followed. Slowing down, he tried to get the plate number, but having no luck, he came to a stop. *Voom....voom...as the car sped up. "Son of a bitch, as he began a high speed chase with the suspect. Just as they were rounding the corner, Mac seen the lady, crossing, knowing he had no choice but to stop, the suspect got away.
"I'll get you, you son of a bitch, you just wait".
