own nothing but Crissy))
" 'Oo ya righen the letter to, 'Enry?"Asked Skinner leaning over the doctor's shoulder.Henry of course immediatly put his arm over the paper.
"N-noone.J-just a realitive."He wished Skinner would accept that and leave him alone.Of course he was wrong.
"My dearest Crisstal"Rodney said, reading the letter he had snatched outloud to the league, who had been having breakfast."Oh!Dearest,eh?Got 'ourself a girl, mate?"
"Skinner I would appieciate if I could have that back!"He said reaching for it.Skinner pushed his hand away and continued. "I shall make a suggestion to the cap'in that we go to London so you can be with us.Oh how cute he wants to be with her!I wonder if- hey!"he yelled as Henry had finally gotten the letter back.
"Who was that to, Dr. Jekyll?"Mina asked looking up from her coffee cup.Henry looked at her and felt that feeling of guilt."M-my wife"He stammered.
"I didnt know you had-"Tom sawyer had started to say but was interuptted.
"I know you didnt.None of you did."Henry said looking to the floor.
"Why?"Asked Mina.Henry had turned away from them and took a step towards the door."Because its none of your buisness."he said rather sternly and unlike himself.He paused for a moment then walked out of the room.
"Goodness..."Mina said.
Henry sat on his bed and became more depressed by the minute.Not only had he left his wife,well tecnically captured,without saying anything but he had made eyes at another woman.Henry was so ashamed he sometimes couldnt think.He loved Crisstal so.She was everything to him.He decided to buy her something when he got to London.Perhaps a puppy.He knew it wouldnt make him feel any better except perhaps to see her smile but he felt as if he must do something.She was staying with her rich uncle in that big house.'Practically alone' had been her words.Henry could throw up from the guilt he was feeling.He sent her a letter after he had been captured telling her it was alright and he was on a buisness trip.She had thought he had left or harm had come to him and had cried for a night.The thought made Henry dreadfully sick.He laid down in his bed and shut his eyes.He would see her soon.A day and a half is what Captain Nemo had said it would take to get there.Henry tried to think of happy things as he drifted off to sleep.
