Megan tried all she could to enter the room with a preconception that whoever that was in the room was important to make Oswald visit her. It was the women’s ward and only women could stay in room there. This was what worried her and so, she wanted to see whoever was in there no matter what. Elsie couldn’t hear what the person was saying but she knew that the person wasn’t ready to back down and so, she prompted Oswald,Please, settle whatever that is for me, let me know who that is and the reason she is causing trouble in the hospital.This time, Oswald nodded his head and walked towards the door, he opened it slightly and saw Megan. He moved out quickly and closed the door behind him to stop Elsie from seeing who or eavesdropping.When Megan saw Oswald open the door, she also stretched her neck to see inside but Oswald was fast on closing it. She sighed and then asked him with a frown on her face,Oswald, may I know who it is in there? And why you are visiting her?Oswald also frown
Sid and Aires pushed Oswald aside and got closer to Elsie, they started bombarding her with questions one after the other,When did you get hurt?Who did this to you?Are you in too much pain?Why is this guy even with you? How did he find out that you were in the hospital?Who is taking care of you? And how long have you being in here without our knowledge?They turned to Oswald and saw that he was still in the room and so, they looked at her and at the same time asked,Why is he still in here?Elsie sighed and looked in the way of Oswald feeling sorry for him, she still said to him,Please, you can leave, they will stay with me.Oswald nodded his head and turned to walk away but then he said to them before existing the room,Take good care of her, don’t let her work too much.Right behind him, if he turned again, he would have been dead from the flying daggers coming from the two men’s eyes. Elsie shook her head at their actions. She laid down slowly and looked at the two men beside
Oswald was in his thoughts thinking about Elsie’s health, he looked out in the window. He had a poker face on when Rod entered the room, he didn’t have to knock as the door was left ajar. He wondered the reason for this as Oswald wouldn’t leave the door ajar if he was in the office or out. He thought that, maybe something had happened inside and so, he rushed in.When he saw that Oswald was in the office and had left the door and was also sitting and not working, he froze in his steps and stared at him in confusion. He tilted his head and looked at his face and the thought,Sir is getting worse and worse, if he doesn’t realize and confess his feelings, I don’t think he can return to who h was before.He sighed and walked walk to him purposely making noise with his steps. Oswald seemed to have heard this noise and looked in his way. He frowned and asked in an irritated voice,When did you start acting this way? Why are you dragging your feet in this way? Are you out of your mind?Rod l
He smiled awkwardly and greeted,Hi Sir, hi Mum, I’m sorry for arriving at the wrong moment. My name is Dean White; I was called here to be interviewed.Oswald cleared his throat, stretched his hand towards him and then said,I don’t know what you mean by a wrong moment but you are welcome.Dean White shook hands with him and when they were done, he turned to Elsie and stretched his hand towards her. But then, Oswald said to him,You are here, let’s get started, no need for all these handshakes.Dean and Elsie looked at each other with a surprise look and Elsie shrugged as she kept her hand beside her. She sighed and thought,Could it be that; he doesn’t want me shaking hands with another man? This one, I can’t say it’s my wishful thinking when he is right in front of me and happened in my eyes.Elsie shook off the thoughts and they started conversing,I need short answers from you when I ask a question.Okay mum.How do you see the hotel? Do you think there is something we missed whe
He finally left her hand after a gentle squeeze of it. Elsie blushed at that action and then cleared her throat before speaking,I think Dean is perfect for the job, he is easy going and could also see the little things we ignored after seeing. You are going to give him the job right?Oswald nodded his head and then with a sneaky smile on his face boasted,I know good things and good people at all times. Why would I choose someone unfitting of the position?Elsie shook her head slightly finding his action cute. She stood up and said to him,I guess we are done here and so I will take my leave.Oswald looked at the time on his wristwatch and said to her,It is already past lunch time, how about we get lunch before you leave?Elsie shook her head and was reject but he was already walking to the door. He opened it for her with a slight bow of his head. Elsie smiled inwardly but then, she still reminded herself,He is just acting polite, don’t get ahead of yourself.They walked to the res
The next morning, Elsie was at the work place, as she was uploading a file on the system, she saw the day’s date. And her fingers stilled, she smiled and said to herself,It’s his birthday in two days, I almost missed it.She took the telephone beside her arm and dialled a number, Ann came in a few seconds later and said to her,Miss Elsie, you called for me.Yes, I did, I need you to help me investigate someone. You must be as discrete as possible.Ann’s eyes wrinkled in confusion but she still nodded her head and responded,Okay Miss, who is it?Well, it’s Oswald.When she Ann’s expression turn into fear, she added,Don’t worry, we aren’t doing any bad thing to him, I want you to investigate his interest and hobbies.Ann was the more surprised and teased,If it is his interest and hobbies, I think his wife should be very much aware of this, even though you are divorced, you can’t tell me you don’t know anything about him.I know your intentions for saying and I won’t hold it against
Ford then muttered to Rod’s hearing,Don’t we do this just us every year? Why is there someone else this time? Who invited her here?Rod looked at the two people smiling in each other’s way and responded to him,I don’t think, she was invited but you can see the host right? He looks like he is on the moon. She found this place herself and decided to surprise him.Ford nodded his head in understanding and continued,Look at them, we seem invisible right now. Should we just excuse ourselves?Rod smiled and shook his head. Elsie removed the gift she had and presented it to Oswald. He looked at her and acted surprised. Oswald just stared at the gift wondering what could be in it. Rod saw his hesitation and prompted him,Sir, are you going to remove the cover of the gift or are you going to take it home?Elsie smiled and said to him,You should open it and see what I got for you.Oswald sighed with a smile and touched his forehead before he removed the wrapper of the gift. From the shape o
They drove into the house and saw Julian waiting for them with a big yawn on her face. when she saw Elsie alight the car, all the tiredness disappeared from her face replaced with a bright smile. Elsie walked to her with a smile on her face and they both hugged each other. Julian laughed out and said to her,I thought I wouldn’t meet you again. How have you been my darling?As you can see Grandma, I am doing great. I look strong don’t I?Yes, you do. Come, let’s get inside and talk.When they were walking inside, Oswald shouted behind them,Grandma, you seem to forget me every time I come here with Elsie. Why are you leaving me behind without a word when I am the one that brought here?You can help yourself with a drink or something, why are you being a bother? We will be right back, don’t disturb me.Oswald shook his head with a smile on his face and he thought to himself,I love to see them smile and laugh together. Them? Hmm, I think, she has joined the important people in my life
