"Jeremy?" Lilac called out over the side fence of the little farm house.
"Who's there?" Came the reply.
"It's us. Camilla and Lilac," explained Aforementioned.
The plume of red hair came round to the fence.
"Thank goodness! I thought you were Olivia," he sighed.
"Olivia!?" Camilla exclaimed.
Lilac looked at Jeremy sternly,"why would we be Olivia?"
Jeremy groaned.
"She's been coming every day or ever two days and its driving me nuts! She says she is trying to comfort me but really she is flirting with me! Even ma and the kids all the way down to baby Rosie-Ann know not to let her in to see me..............

"Well we aren't Olivia."
"OH JERO BOY! ARE YOU HOME!!!"
"No but that is..."
"I have a plan!"

"Jeremy, darling? Boy have I got some news for you!"
Three mud covered figures came round from the side of the house.
"Oh who are they?" Olivia pouted.
"Oh we are just helping round up some of the animals. We were just working on the pigs." Camilla smiled cheerfully at her nemesis.
"Oh can I help?"
"I don't know it's pretty tough especially with out the kelpie..." said Jeremy in thought. "And muddy."
"Jen used to help Jeremy and now she's a pro!" Lilac interceded.
"Well she has to be if I'm gonna marry her someday", he smiled.
"I-I can do that!"
"You sure?"
"Yes I can do it!"
"Ok well we will go take a break whilst you round up the pigs!"
"Wonderful idea Lilac!" Jeremy started to walk to the porch.
"I can't do it by myself!" Olivia complained.
"Jenn can do it by herself in twenty minutes! Ten if she isn't blindfolded. She likes a challenge so we blindfold her and watch her go!"
"I can do it!" Olivia said hurriedly.
"Ok!"

The cell door creaked open.
"Oh just thought I should tell you that Jeremy hates this leaving without warning thing of yours.
He is breaking up with you," the dark silhouette said before shutting the door.
Jenn strained on the chain on her wrist gone ring her to the wall, and the gag on her mouth.
Why? she thought before starting to sob.
Why?
