said, the explosion was caused by a technical fault, there is no truth in those claims.”
    “Mr President will you be re-establishing the CIA?”
    “No I will not.  I’ll take one more.”
    “Mr President how has Mrs Kennedy responded Mr Oswald’s statement?”
    Bobby watched as the President seemed stumped for the first time.
    “She was upset by what Mr Oswald claimed, as was I.  Thank you all for coming.”  The President stepped from the podium and disappeared from view.
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    Chapter 22
    The two months following the Apollo 8 disaster were primarily focussed on damage limitation for the Kennedy camp.  Both the Kennedy’s and Bobby’s entire department had returned to their homes in Washington.
    Bobby, David, Nancy, Clint, Faraday and Jane all lived in a luxury mansion named Handy Point Estate, in Chestertown.  The house boasted seven well sized bedrooms, five bathrooms and a beautiful twenty one acres of land.  The mansion had been built in 1785, and had beautiful wooden floors throughout.  When they had originally moved in to the mansion it had been quite traditional, they had updated the colour scheme to cream throughout the house, and the furniture would be very suitable for a house in 2014.
    They had not really been able to enjoy their time in the house since Christmas, Bobby Kennedy was pushing them hard to track down Jacob Cohen.  As of yet they had no leads.  Kennedy’s approval rating had fallen from 87% to 39%, and there didn’t seem to be anything on the horizon that would lead to an improvement of these figures.
    The time was 09:00 on Friday 21 st February 1969 as Faraday and Jane drank their morning coffee in one of the two dining rooms.
    “So have you thought any more about what I said?”  Jane asked.

“I really don’t think it’s the right time to move back.”
    “When will it be the right time?”
    “I don’t know, thirty years?”
    Jane’s face screwed up.  “You are kidding?”
    “Yes I’m kidding, but we have friends here.”
    “We will make friends back home.”  Jane looked annoyed.
    “Why is this so important to you?”
    “I told you, I want to raise our children in Scotland.”
    “It’s not like your pregnant!” 
    Jane looked suddenly serious.
    Faraday was terrified.  “Is it?”
    She nodded.
    “Really?”
    She nodded again.
    The magnitude of this information hit Faraday like a baseball bat.  “You’re pregnant?”
    Jane had tears in her pale blue eyes.  “Yes.”
    He got to his feet and kissed her.  “Wow!”
    “Are you pleased?”  She asked.
    Am I pleased?  He had absolutely no idea.  “Um, yeah!”
    “Um, yeah?”
    “No of course I am.  I’m just a little surprised.”
    “In a good way?”
    “Yeah of course in a good way.”
    “I was thinking of going into town to look at baby clothes.”
    “Isn’t that a bit too soon?”
    “I’m excited.”
    “Yeah me too.”  Faraday lied.
    “I was thinking of asking Nancy, we still don’t really spend any time with her.”  
    “There is a reason for that.”  Faraday joked.
    “Don’t be mean.  It will get her and Clint out of the house.”
    “Do you mind if I stay here?  You know I hate shopping.”
    “I didn’t expect you to come, its fine.”
    “You’re sure?”
    “Yeah.”  Jane rose to her feet and walked into the hallway, she could see Clint playing in the living room.
    “Hey, little man.”
    “Hello.”  He mumbled.
    “Where’s your mum?”
    “Kitchen.” 
    Jane headed towards the kitchen, secretly hoping that her child wouldn’t be like Clint, he was an odd child.  She found Nancy sitting at the breakfast bar drinking a coffee.
    “Morning Nancy.”
    She looked up grumpily, not much of a change there.  She was only ever nice to Bobby.  “I was just wondering if you fancied going shopping?”
    “Just the two of us?”  She replied, looking confused.
    “Well I could use your advice, I’m looking for baby clothes.”
    Nancy’s face
