Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 308

Elliott's brow furrowed. "What's going on?"

"I just got caught by that jerk Tarquin!"

"What? Slow down, tell me everything!"

"I had just shaken off that stalker, sneaking into the amusement park to meet up with you guys, and just my luck, I ran smack into Tarquin! Bumped right into him and couldn't get away!"

Elliott's voice was laced with anxiety, "Where are you right now?"

"I'm hiding out in the bathroom, and Tarquin is camping out right by the door."

"You were wearing a mask, right? How did he recognize you?"

"Yeah, I had my mask on, but today he had rented the whole park. There was only one kid around, Elijah, so when he suddenly saw a kid, he just assumed it was Elijah! And when he took off my mask, he was even more convinced I'm Elijah."

They were the spitting image of each other!

"So, you mean he only thinks you're Elijah and hasn't figured out anything else?"

"Exactly!"

Elliott let out a sigh of relief. "Well, that's something at least!"

Bad luck, sure, but at least their true identities were still a secret.

Elliott steadied his thoughts and asked, "Aren't you and Elijah wearing different clothes today? Didn't he find that suspicious?"

"He did ask. I told him the suit was too uncomfortable to play in, so I changed into something else and that I had brought the extra clothes with me. Then, I bolted into the bathroom. What do I do now?"

Elliott pondered for a moment. "And he's still outside?"
