《Disappearance》Chapter 18
Advertisement
I was so nervous right now because I'm just a hour we were going to find out if that little girl is ours or not.
"You okay". Jahreem asked brushing his teeth as he walked out of the bathroom.
"Yeah just nervous because I don't know the outcome". I said buttoning up my shirt as I sat on the bed.
"The way that little girl looked at me you can't tell me that's not my daughter". He said with a smile on his face.
"I'm surprised she actually took the bear from you that day". I said standing up grabbing my dress pants.
"Shit me too but I'm glad she did cause it had my voice recorded in it". He said wiping his face with a face towel.
"That's so sweet". I said with a smile on my face.
"Shit baby we need to hurry up". He said looking at the clock.
I look over and see we have thirty minutes to get to the courthouse.
Pulling up outside we get out and he grabs my hand as we walk in. Looking over I see Dr Louis and his wife and the lady from the hospital with the little girl.
"Let's get started who has the results". The judge asked looking between the two lawyers.
"That would be me your honor". Our lawyer said handing the envelope to the office that walked over.
He handed them to the judge and he opened the envelope reading over it.
"It looks like that little girl does indeed belong to the Mitchell's". The judge said and I passed out.
I feel something lean on me causing me to look down and see Marlowe passed out. Our lawyer handed me a paper and I started fanning her and after a good minute or so she woke up.

"She's ours that's Haisley". She asked looking at me and I nodded my head with a smile.
"Mr and Mrs Louis are set to spend 45 to life with no bail or possibility of parole and your license is also revoked". The judge said slamming the gavel.
Greta the social worker walked over and tried to hand Haisley to Marlowe but she started crying reaching for Mrs. Louis. She then tried giving her to me and she came without a problem laying her head into my neck.
"Thanks for helping us man". I said shaking hands with our lawyer.
"It's no problem really I'm just glad you guys caught on to this now and not when she was older". He said and I nodded.
"You ready to go".I ask looking over at Marlowe and she nodded grabbing my hand.
Walking out we get to the car and I go to strap Haisley in but she starts to cry.
"I'm gone sit back here with her". I said handing Marlowe the keys and getting in.
Leaning back Marlowe starts the car and pulls off.
Walking into the house I had to use the bathroom so I handed Haisley to Marlowe and she started crying but I really had to piss so I went ahead and went.
Washing my hands I walk out and Haisley was still crying.
"Can you take her I just need a minute". Marlowe said handing her to me and walking away.
Looking down she was sniffling already looking up at me.
"What's wrong mama's". I ask walking to her room and taking a seat in the rocking chair.
Leaning back she lays her head on my chest and after a while I look down and she was sleep. Standing up I place her in her crib before walking out cracking the door.

Going to our room I walk in and Marlowe was crying.
"Baby what's wrong". I ask wrapping my arm around her.
"She hates me". She said and I shook my head.
"Baby she doesn't hate you she's just not used to you yet she's used to that other lady". I said kissing the side of her forehead.
"Then how come she goes to you so easily". She asked and I shrugged my shoulders.
"I can't really tell you that but what I can tell you is that when she gets used to you she gone want you all the time". I said causing her to smile.
"Let's take a nap while she sleep and then we can go do something when she wakes up". I said laying down and she did the same laying her head on my chest.
Looking up at the ceiling I start to wonder.
Why is she so willing to come to me...

Magic-Farming
A thought experiment gone out of control, inspired by kosnik4's popular story, Magic-Smithing. What would life be like for someone else who was transported to the world inside Magic-Smithing? Someone who wasn't as prone to encounter incresasingly dangerous people, whose life was a little less chaotic? What if this person was content with a simple life of farming? Tending to the plants, sowing seeds, and reaping a great harvest at the end of the year. Of course, he's also a data scientist, so he can't help but squeeze out the maximum possible efficiency of his time and the potential of his attributes. Who doesn't make excel spreadsheets in their spare time? This is a slightly more "Slice of Life" esque version of kosnik4's story. Hopefully lighthearted, funny, and as enjoyable to read as it is thinking of increasingly ridiculous skill progressions. Thanks to kosnik4 and Magic-Smithing for providing fertile grounds for creativity to thrive. NOTE: THIS IS A FAN FICTION, AND ALL INTELLECTUAL RIGHTS BELONG TO KOSNIK4. I'm a patron of his story, and love reading about what happens next in his story. I've tried my best to be as accurate to his canon science as possible, though it's not 100% feasible. Afterall, the story isn't even done yet! My plan for the releases is to release a single chapter a day until 3/7, and then release 4 chapters a week on M, W, F, & Sat. P.S. If anyone can figure out what the EXACT formula for Level XP is, I'd love to hear it. I'm starting to doubt my math and excel capabilities. I have an equation that is fairly accurate and stays close to his values, but not exactly the same.
