Soon as the call went through she sighs in relief, it had been over Twenty hours since she had been trying to reach her boss so she could ask about the trip –
Reports in the news stated a heavy storm at the gulf and all through that day she had been restless, it was a good thing that had fixed whatever drift she had with Rhys all she thought about was how dinner was going to be.
“It is a good thing you are doing well.”She spoke immediately she had picked up the phone.
Laura mesmerized by everthing had a lot to say and so the call she had thought would last a little while spanned to Minutes.
“Have you found anything yet?”Riley questioned.
Once again it was the Woman being her kind useful self, though she was so self absorbed with everything happening she was glad that he was reaching out and that in a way, she was trying to figure things out for herself at that moment.
All the situation were made difficult by the fact she knew all the details In her hands were scrap.
Laura sighs.”Not yet.”
Riley brows knitted.”Well, you didn’t exactly give a good list of what you want, you know no matter what happens getting into a fight is out of it if you’re planning on finding him with her.”
“Riley found don’t have to remind me that he is with her.”
“Well, don’t want you stressed … Remember your condition.”
Much as she didn’t want to speak about it, it was seeming more like she had to, he had no other options than to let herself wonder on if she was doing the right thing coming her.
“Booked a Chauffeur have you met him?”she asked, walking past to look out of the window.
She was expecting Rhys later that day and wanted nothing to ruin the moment.
Yes she hesitated.”Yes. He’s, uh . . . real nice.”
“Well that would save you some stress”She threw her hands on her hips and stared into oblivion.
“Thank you.”Laura muttered from the other end of the call.”I know you get paid for this but you do your job deligently.”
“You are welcome.”she grimaced.”So what are your plans today?”
“I think I am going to have to stay here till something show up”
Her face scrunched up like she was irritated by what was just said by her boss.”You have to go out.”
“Well I’d try.”
“Well is probably a better possibility.”Riley noted.. She nodded like that was good.”would call you later.”
If Laura had any worries it was how wqs going to find Chris in all of his homes in Columbia, soon after she dropped the call she had to pondered on what to do.
She was getting worried that all the journey has been useless at least that was what she thought at that moment even as she attempts to make way out of the lift later that evening.
*****
As usual he was late and she wasn’t having any of it, Riley had waited for him to come to her work but it was all to no avail the good thing was it turned out it be a good all that he wasn’t there.
It gave enough time for her to speak to Damien about the entire situation, and it all ended on a good note.
The other with Rhys had been perfect as well, as usual all business talks and boring but still he had his moments.
At that moment, she was walking home with Rhys – Turning off the lights, Rhys put his arm around her waist and led her into his room
upstairs.
It was easy for him to tell that she was angered by the the entore situation but for what Reasom it was hard to say
There was a part of him that wished that she understood him it was that same part that’s seemed angry about all that was happening .
As it was it seemed as though he was starting to get angered by her antics, he wanted things diffently but didn’t know how he would get himself to get it.
He wouldn’t deny that he loved her still, as they walked into the room. he wearily pulled his shirt off, stretching his neck as his tense muscles twinged.
She turned to look at him eyes sober.”I’d be in the bathroom.”
Other day he would had opted for a bath with but not tonight.
He didn’t say much than:
“Fuck! I’m exhausted.”He dropped to the edge of the bed and took off his shoes before falling with his back to the bed resting on his forearms.
“I don’t know how it was for you, but you really need to stop all this grumpy look, during that meeting it was very noticeable to me that you didnt want to be there and I am sure other’s saw it to. I’m not sure if I managed to reassure
them al sufficiently that you are fine…The funniest thing is you won’t fucking talk!”He exhaled gustily and rubbed the back of his neck.”Fine what is the problem.”
“just stay away.”Was all she said before getting away.
She thought it all through in the bathroom,
Remembering her thoughts during dinner, she let the water from the faucet warm her up and fill her soul…
She was tensed. She could feel it all happening quickly and if there was anyway out of this , she thought it was silence.
As the water drains away, she wished that she could take the weight off her shoulders.
She thought it is the best that she could, given the circumstances. It seems to her that
with so much happening all at once, there’s really no way to completely soothe everyone’s
concerns. And if she had her way she would have just given anything to be in that trip with her boss.
When she walked out she was still Angry, she sat away creaming when she felt his hands on her.
“Thanks for putting up with me, I know that that at times you needed to air your oncerns, but it’s really nice trying to remain calm and reasonable in all of this.”
“Really.”she gave a rueful chuckle and smirked.”Let go of me.
“I am sorry that came wrong it is just me saying sorry.”
The shoulder massage felt good as she leaned appreciatively into his hands.
“Hey, lie down.”he tugged at her and watches as she rolled onto his stomach. Straddling
her hips, he began to work on the stiff muscles of her shoulders.
“I just -”
The rest of the word’s fades away she was asleep.
