My Sick Jeannie
Chapter 6
The next day Roger came over early to see if he could help Jeannie cook and clean while Tony was at work. He expected to find Jeannie watching television or sitting outside in the sun. But as he walked in the house he was surprised to find her not there at all.
"Oh boy Jeannie, you better be home before Tony gets back." Roger said to himself hoping Jeannie just went to the store or something.
Just as the thought left his mind Jeannie came walking through the front door.
"Jeannie!" Roger yelled which made her yell and drop the bags she was hold.
"Major Healey you scared me!" She said and started to pick up her bags.
"I'm sorry Jeannie, but Tony wanted me to come over and help you around the house. That is, if you don't mind."
"Oh no I do not mind.." She stopped and looked at him.
"Major Healey? Are you not this 'house arrest' like my master?" She asked skeptically.
"As a matter of fact I am. I just told Dr. Bellows that I would be here until I go to the base today."
"Oh, oh I see." She said and took the bags to Tony's bedroom.
"What's in the bags?" He asked and took some boxes out.
"Clothes for my master."
"Why did you buy him some clothes?"
Jeannie thought about it and wondered if it would get her into trouble.
"Well, he needs new clothes."
"Okay. Do you want to go in the kitchen? I can show you how everything works." Roger asked cautiously.
"Yes Major Healey, I want to be able to do everything just like everybody else." She said happily and smiled at him.
"Okay lets go." He said and the two walked into the kitchen.

Tony was sitting at his desk filing some paper work when his secretary came in.
"Tony?"
"Yes?"
"Someone is waiting for you outside." She said and looked behind her.
"Who is it?" He asked putting down his pen and looking up at her.
"She said her name was Bonnie."
"Bonnie? Well send her in." He said and Tina walked out.
"Bunky Nelson." Came one of the sweetest voices Tony had ever heard.
"Bonnie hi. How have you been?" He asked and looked at her left hand, surprised to find her finger bare.
"I've been just fine, what about you?"
"Just great. How long are you going to be in town?"
"Just a couple of days, I was hoping that we could go somewhere." She said and Tony's phone rang.
"Excuse me Bonnie." He said and picked up his phone. "Tony Nelson. Oh yes sir, yes I understand."
He hung up the phone and looked at the woman sitting across from him.
"Sorry to cut this meeting short Bonnie but I have to be heading home."
"Can I come over? I've never seen your house before." She said and stood with him.
"Umm, well my house keeper gets very jealous when other women come over and she wont be gone till later."
"Well are you two and item?"
"Well."
"Major Nelson, you're still here?" Dr. Bellows said walking in.
"Yes sir, but I was just leaving."
Bonnie followed Tony outside and to his car.
"Please Tony?"
"Alright, come on." He said and wondered what Jeannie would say.
~*~
"Looks like Tony's home." Roger said as he was sitting on the chair, then he saw Bonnie.
"Wow what a girl."
That got Jeannie's attention in a heartbeat.
"What girl?"
Roger quickly went to pull the curtains together.
"Oh no..no girl just someone walking down the street."
"Oh." She wasn't going to believe that.
"Jeannie I'm home."
She instantly saw Bonnie and just smiled weakly at him.
"Hi I'm Bonnie." She said and extended her hand.
"My name is," She began but stopped and looked at her master who nodded. "Well, I do not have one to be proud of."
Tony looked at her wide eyed and then to Roger who just shrugged. Bonnie looked at the girl who didn't have any name then to Tony.
"Her name is Jeannie." Roger said and looked at Jeannie who walked over to him.
"Oh is that my name thank you for reminding me darling."
"Darling?" Both men said at the same time. Tony knew what she was trying to do and he refused to let her get the better of him. But he looked to Roger who seemed to be enjoying this far too much.
"Well I had better be going." Roger said and was instantly followed by his new 'girl'.
"Where are you going Jeannie?" Tony asked.
"With Roger."
"Are you done with everything?"
"Oh yes, Roger was kind enough to come over and help me." She said and took his hand in hers.
"But what about dinner?"
"All made and ready on the table Mr. Nelson."
"Umm what about the garden in the back yard?" He asked running out of ideas.
"Weeded and watered, may I go now?" She asked and looked to Bonnie.
Tony noticed her gaze and nodded
"Go ahead."
The two said goodbye and walked out the door. Tony watched them get in the car and drive away.
'What did I do now?' He thought and sat down at the table with Bonnie to eat dinner.
