Chapter 587
By his fifth moon something strange started to happen. The first time it did my family panicked.
We were sitting around the fire in the Late evening before bed. We'd finished a note from Hannah and were just talking. All of the sudden the men jumped back out of their chairs. The entire focus was on Jonathan who was babbling happily at my feet.

Jonathan got up and walked toward Evan talking and reaching. He wanted his Daddy to pick him up. Evan backed toward the far wall slowly.

"Hannah and Kennedy will save him...they must."

I knew time was short, so I enjoyed Jonathan as much as I could. Every waking moment was spent playing with him and talking to him. He still spoke in that strange Language he'd invented. I understood him, though The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest chapter there!
