go babysitting

She showered as quickly as possable, not getting nearly as clean as she would have liked.

But she was grateful to be able to shower at all. She was dreading coming downstairs,but

when she got there her Dad said "I don't have time to deal with this now. Ms. Jenkins just

called and she wants you to babysit for her right away. She's a close family friend so get over

there now!"

The babysitting went pretty smoothly. The Jenkins were happy to have a last min replacement

after their son Rick, age 16, who was supposed to watch the kids left in a huff because

he had a big date.

The remaining kids, Nick, 7 and Kim, 4 were pretty easy to take care of. They were well

behaved for the most part, and Nick only asked questions like "Is it alright if I watch TV..."

etc... which kept her from having to do much. A few moments were awkward like when Kim

said "Get me my toy!" and Tanya felt the compulsion to do it. But they never noticed.

The problems didn't start until after 9pm when the kids went to bed. Lulled by the easy night

Tanya went to the computer and checked her e-mail. There she got a message that read:

SIGN ONTO AOL INSTANT MESSANGER RIGHT NOW from an email address she didn't recognize.

She did.
