Sunday worried sick

Sometimes our friends, family members and loved ones do stupid things or get themselves in bad situations.   Today you are worried about someone.  


A/N: An older Marce here.

"This never ends, does it?" 

Once upon a time, Marce reserved her worries for her sisters, and occasionally for her neighbors Josh and Kevin. Then she'd gotten older and her worries expanded to Ida, Lize, and their ever-growing circle of friends. Thankfully after a long while, everyone grew up and she had to worry a lot less. Well, there had been the time that Darren had gotten out of a job, but now he was doing just fine, starting up his acting career anew in California. Then there had been the time that Emil had spent a night or two in jail on a trumped up charge, but she'd gotten him home safely that time. 

"Now it's the kids I have to worry about," Marce thought as she grabbed her jacket and her car keys. Her kids should have been back from the playground now. Her nephew Dominic should have been watching them. Why wasn't that boy answering his phone? 

She gritted her teeth as she got in her car to head to the playground. Hopefully they were okay. Hopefully.
