Chapter 3: Elli's disappointment

Jack had just finished his workday and walked back into the house. The first place he went was the bathroom. Jack took a shower and washed his hands when he heard a knock on the door.

"Who could that be?" thought Jack as he walked over and answered the door.

"Oh, Elli…. What are you doing here? Is something wrong?!" asked Jack with concern. Elli looked at Jack and gave a small smile….

"No nothings wrong, it's just… I wanted to see you. You didn't come to the clinic like you usually do… so you see I thought something was wrong…. And I'm sorry Jack.." said Elli as she looked down at the ground. Jack smiled at her.

"Hey, Elli I…. Wanted to give you something…." Replied Jack… Jacks stomach turned…. 'What am I thinking' screamed Jacks mind as he went over to the refrigerator and pulled out a bowl of stew.

"Um… Elli give your regards to Ellen…." said Jack as he gave Elli the bowl. Elli looked down at the bowl and gave him a fake smile.

"Oh… thank you Jack I'll do that…" replied Elli as she looked down turning red…. 'Awe… I thought he was going to tell me he liked me too….' Thought Elli in her mind., "Well I have to be going now Jack, please take care of yourself.." With that said Elli left out the door…

Meanwhile at the same time Jack heard footsteps coming from the other room. Jack turned to the door and was shocked to see the girl that he had carried inside from the rain standing there staring at him.

"Whoa…" thought Jack as he stared at her.
