Chapter 21th The Night Of The Two Legged Little Man
After Colonel Richmond had left the Wanderer. It was Artemus Gordon's job to start looking for any type of bugs on the train.
Going into the next compartment to grab his equipment to start checking the entire train. Even though it will probably take some time.
But in the meantime...
Gordon's wife Susan was having a hard time trying to sleep with having to be over due by two weeks with having the baby.
Since Susan wasn't alone in the house. Dr. Braddock sleeping in his room. He was able to hear the commotion on the other room with Susan.
He was beginning to think that she is getting very close to going into labor soon. The direct signs were there never the less. All he needed to know on whether or not just when Susan's water will break.
Getting up and out of his double bed, and placing on his old white robe. He went to grab one of the candles in order for him to see where he was going since it was late.
Moving out of his room and through to the other bed rooms. He goes over to knock lightly on the door.
"Who is it?" She asked.
"Susan it's Dr. Braddock. Are you all right?" He asked with great concern for the woman.
"It's not lock, please come on in Dr."
He goes to open the door to move in with the candle in his hand. "What's going on Susan? Have your contractions started?" He asked with the two questions.
"No. no. Nothing like that at all. Just too uncomfortable with carrying this basketball inside of me for god sake."
"You want me to give you a sleeping potion in order for you to rest?"
"It's a good idea Dr. Braddock, or else I won't be able to sleep at all. Thanks." She says with a slight smile at this time of the night.
"Let me go get my equipment and sleeping potion. And in the meantime just relax in bed until I get back."
"I will and thanks." She says to him with the doctor slowly moving out of the room with his candle in hand.
