Why was Claire running away?
Eric was still struggling with the kids.
"Go meet Desmond over there." The kids paused their assault and turned to face Desmond and Sam.
Desmond already picked up his phone and wore his most intimidating frown. It didn't work. The twins ran up to him and threw their little arms around him.
"Easy kids. Don't strangle me." He choked out.
It looked like he was in trouble. His face was already red from friction. Sam burst into laughter. Desmond gets strangled by five-year-olds.
The two identical children turned to look at her curiously. There was a boy and a girl. Oh, and they were so cute!
"Who is she?"
The girl asked, pointing at Sam.
"She's my wife," Desmond said, smiling at Sam.
Sam felt her heart perform a flip.
"She's so beautiful, Des! Well done," she said and high-fived him.
"You have a good eye." The boy said.
Sam gaped.
"Can we play with her?" The boy asked.
"No," Desmond said firmly.
