Blown
Chapter 37th
She had grabbed the cup from Confalone with the coffee. Otherwise, she was trying to relax with all that has happened between herself and Gibbs. Even though she had a deadline on one of her stories with her editor at the Washington Post.
"Tell me Marcie had you sat down with Jethro about what is on your mind without the anger on both sides? I know damn well that Jethro doesn't want to go through another divorce to place him in another deep void," she said with sympathy for the most part.
Nodding her head... "No, I haven't. However, it's a little late right now with my husband moving out of the hospital and home to be ready for the operation with his former team.
He's been so angry with the way things had been going for him. His mind had been reeling ever since the explosion of his boat and recent rumors of a contract killer receiving the order either from Paraguay or Columbian.
Gibbs had been thinking a great deal with his wife talking to Doctor Confalone since she had not been able to cope with her hormones. He doesn't know how to help her since it's been a long time since he's been married.
Downstairs in the basement gathering his rifle, scope, and ammo along with his Colt 45 and another revolver that he had owed for the longest time. Even though his sig from NCIS was taken away.
Placing the last of the items into his go-bag walking upstairs to place the go-bag on the side of the couch. Even though his personal belongings were upstairs needing to try and sleep for a few hours with waiting for Marcie to come home.
Doctor Confalone had further questions. "Don't you think that making this type of decision is not good for your physical and stress levels with the unborn child?"
Looking over at her playing with her hands from her nerves. "I realize it, Doctor. I just haven't been able to control myself at all doc," she instructed with the response.
"Did you ever consider that Jethro simply asking for help not realizing it to himself?" a question that might be hard to answer.
"It's possible! Since my husband can sometimes be blinded to certain situations. Along with the fact he's been fighting all of his ghosts from the past!" Marcie exhaled three times before turning her head to search the Doctor's expression.
"Meaning real ghosts showing up to be talking to him as part of his imagination?" Doctor Grace needed to say.
"Exactly!" Marcie commented with a deep exhale. "Why this ever happened is beyond me?" she inquired.
EXHALING..."Maybe it has something to do with stress during the cases he had been working on. Like with Diane and Mike Franks getting stabbed on the street during a rainstorm in front of Gibbs's house." she instructed.
"My husband whenever I asked about his former boss and friend. He had a hard time with talking about his friend had spent a great deal of time with him in Mexico after first retiring," she advised.
"For when it comes to Mike Franks, he was almost like a father figure to Gibbs while he was taken into his wing having become a NIS/NCIS agent. It was hard for him when Mike was killed outside his own house in the street during rain and thunderstorm. Gibbs was obsessed back then with again trying to catch another serial killer?"
"My husband had told me some of what happened back that time as he always chokes up on the memories with Franks leaving behind his daughter-in-law and granddaughter," Marcie grumbled under her breath.
"And what about yourself Marcie? where does that leave you for the most part?" Doc had to ask the strange question.
Shifting on the couch with her legs. "I don't understand what you're talking about Doc?" she said.
"Meaning that your husband going after the serial killer just might not be coming back?" she alluded and agitated at the same time.
"Don't you even dare to say something like that to me Doc after all I have done for him?" she paused for the moment to gather her thoughts.
Shrugging her head for a brief second. "I am just saying for the most part Marcie that maybe Lemere and his friends just might get the upper hand on your husband?" she instructed with her anger building further.
"I just hope not at all Doctor Confalone. I don't think that I won't be able to handle it as with Gibbs with his persona. I don't think that this time that his mind and body will be able to heal?" she cryptically will say to her with her anger getting in the way...
