Melinda had left Denver abruptly. The newly, classified agency, within the agency, had arranged for her move from Denver to Washington, DC. She, nor any of the other, 23 agent and analysis, had been allowed to say good-by to friends, or co-workers. Scott, the man she had been dating, for almost 5 months, had NOT, been placed on the special list, to be notified of her new location. And, now, every day her heart hurt, for the man she had walked away from, without so much as a good by. She remembered, clearly, the events which lead to their separation........ A month before she even knew that she had been accepted for the position Scott had informed her that his ex-girlfriend had returned to Denver, and was pregnant with his child. He had asked Melinda to give him time to work through the situation before making any decisions. Melinda remembered the disappointment and emotional pain, she had felt. She was the first to admit that she reacted without thinking. She had no idea that her mind would say one thing, and her heart could say another. Scott was a Computer Science Professor at the University of Denver. They had met at a technology workshop, in New York City. When they realized that they were both from Denver, they became good friends. It had not taken long, before the friendship evolved into a personal relationship. It had been a relationship of mutual respect, friendship, trust and passionate love making. Melinda remembered that she had been completely happy with Scott, until the ex-girlfriend drama. Scott made every effort to assure Melinda, that the event was a passing phase, within their relationship, and encouraged her to have faith. That had been six months ago. She had not spoken to, nor seen Scott since that day. A couple of days, after Scott’s upsetting news, Melinda’s father, had called to give her the news that she had been selected for one of the high tech, classified positions, in Washington DC The position, with the IIA, International Information Agency, was a classified spin off, from, “the Agency.” That is, until confidential information, about the new department and the staff, was published on a popular, non-government website. Malinda's thoughts slowly returned to the present situation. Now, her new job’s cover had been blown, the IIA agents and analysis, were ordered to report to work, with a toothbrush, and a change of clothes. The building and, staff were placed in lock down status. No one was permitted to leave and all cell phones had to be turned in for replacements. Melinda had read about incidents, such as this, but she had never expected to be personally involved, in a US breach of security, especially one as severe as this. Malinda’s job was to analyze, report, and investigate Internet, activity, information, and communications, which might have an adverse affect, on Homeland Security. The department operated, as a shadow, of one’s imagination. And because they never showed up, on anyone’s, budget, they had remained, undetected, at least until now. Back in Denver, Scott was experiencing the same intense, distraught feelings, as Melinda. A DNA test had confirmed what he had known all alone. The child, his ex-girlfriend gave birth to, was not his. He had suspected this because of his low sperm count, due to a childhood illness. This was the same illness, which resulted in him becoming, a computer nerd, rather, than an accomplished athlete. He had played the “new daddy” game, while having the child’s DNA tested. Scott knew, the truth, he still helped his ex through the first month, of being a new Mom. When he finally, told his ex that he knew the baby wasn’t his, she too left his life, but not for long. Scott was determined to find Melina, and realized, from her families reaction to her disappearance, that she had simply, relocated. What he didn’t understand, was why would Melinda, quite her IT position, with a Fortune 500 company, and simple, re-locate.
