Sessions 29th
Chapter 29th
Gibbs had taken the IPAD and placed it onto the tray next to him. He's going to have to be patient with himself when using it. However, he was more concerned for his wife staring out into space for some reason.
Clicking his fingers. "Earth to Marcie, are you here? he will joke slightly.
"I am sorry Jethro, I was thinking about something that had happened earlier for where I had to call the police." she will have to say.
"Why what has happened Marcie?" Leroy Jethro Gibbs was concerned for when it comes to his wife,
mother of his child, lover, and reporter for the Washington Post.
"When I was outside walking Lucy. I had noticed a vehicle with someone inside watching me. So I was able to remember the license plate. I called the police department and explained the situation with them sending two squad cars to arrest the man. I understand that he was carrying a weapon with asking for a lawyer."
"Anything else that we should know about?" Gibbs had to ask with his curiosity kicking in.
"The officer that came to the house had told me that he works out of the Russian embassy. For which Jethro, I didn't believe a word of it at this point. Something might be brewing for all I know?"
"Maybe. But for now, relax you're here to keep me company." he will cryptically with his tone.
"Okay, Jethro I will try and relax. I was able when I was home to get some good sleep for myself and this baby," she says with a smile. "How are you doing?"
"Me? I am a bit sore from my physical therapy session earlier. That woman had me working hard with the exercises." he exclaimed.
"I bet she worked muscles that you didn't know you had except for the one between your legs?" she chuckled to have him giving her a look of love in those crystal blue eyes.
"Well! What can I say I am your Silverfox like always?" he switched his position in the hospital bed.
"Yeah, you're a real silver fox that needs a haircut really bad. When is your friend Ray is supposed to be coming back from California?" she quipped with the question.
"From what I understand Ray is supposed to be home in a few days visiting his son in the Marines at Camp Pendleton as a team leader," Gibbs said with pride for his friend and son after helping them out years ago.
"How is his son Brian had been doing having gone back into the Marines?" she needed to know.
"He's cleaned from all of the trouble he was in with his friends the first time around to almost destroyed his relationship with his father. I hated to see this happening nevertheless?" he cried out with his response.
"I am glad that you were there to push them into saving their relationship with each other? It's like myself between my sister Andrea younger than me with our overall differences. But we mentioned to continue on with our relationship the past eight years ever since my daughter died in the car crashed caused by the damn truck behind me rushing to get past." she motioned with a slight tear falling down her cheek and her husband wanting to help her with his hand wiping it away.
"I am truly sorry Marcie. I had my fair share of issues over the years. It wasn't until when I was gone for those two months in Paraguay with McGee that I started to change for the better. Though the real process started when I was shot in Iraq by Luke Harris. And starting a real bond with Doctor Cyril Taft."
"I know that Jethro that it had to be hard for you to start changing. believe me, I had to do the same when my daughter was killed in that damn car crash. It was why I was able to go full time having to be a reporter for the WASHINGTON POST?" SHE CRIED OUT...
"And I was glad you did Marcie!" he smirks with his face turning.
"Well in this case I am going to be leaving to let you get some rest for the surgery. And yes, I will be careful Jethro going home with Lucy needing the attention. I will be back in the morning. No doubt the doctors will be able to bring me up to date on your condition." she goes to kiss him before leaving.
"Marcie I love you. Please be careful going home," he begged. Though currently, he was grimacing slightly with some pain in his chest.
When Marcie was leaving his room to head for the elevator. Inside was Doctor Grace Confalone heading out as well to home. "Doctor Confalone how are you this evening?" she had to ask.
"Exhausted after a long day of sessions. By the way, how is Jethro? I heard that he's going to have surgery in a few days?" she had caught Marcie off guard with the news.
"My! How news travels fast with my husband's surgery? he's doing good considered that he's hiding from me that he's actually scared."
"That's to be expected coming from Leroy Jethro Gibbs. Besides he's been lucky so far during the past few years. Look Marcie give him a chance to cope with the idea that he actually might have to cut back on his activities finally and retire due to his health issues?" Doctor Grace needed to say to have Marcie angry somewhat.
"But why would he hide from his own wife?" she needed to know.
"Look Gibbs has been hiding for many years Marcie and why he had divorced three times." Doctor Grace had to say to her before the elevator stopped in the lobby area before walking out.
"Let's just hope I won't be the fourth divorced once he finds out about this own self?" This comment had Doctor Confalone confused.
