The Phone Call…….
Thanks for all the reviews!
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
The flight back home for Benjy and Sharona was okay, a little rocky here and there.
Neither of them talked very much, both of them being mad at Trevor. He had failed once again, and Sharona had expected it. She wondered why she ever went back with him in the first place.
It must have been her weakness of falling for people who aren't right for her.
Their plane landed at exactly 3:03 p.m. in San Francisco. They both exited and found their way out of the airport. Sharona called a cab and they got in, not sure just where they were going.
Gail had been living in their old house for a while, so Sharona figured she would go back and decide from there what she was going to do.
She wondered if Monk would give her her job back, or stay with Natalie.
Oh, how she hated that name.
She was not sure of her feelings toward her, if she was jealous or just lonely without Monk.
15 minutes later
Sharona and Benjy knocked on the door to their house and Gail answered with a very surprised face.
"What are you guys doing here?" She asked hugging both of them and letting them in.
"We're back," Benjy said.
"To visit?"
"No…. for good." He replied running up to see his room.
"Why are you back for good?" Gail asked sitting down on the couch next to Sharona.
"It didn't work out…. Trevor's being…Trevor, we just needed…. to come back." She sighed
Gail kindly gave Sharona a hug.
"I'm sorry it didn't work…. I think it's for the best though."
"Thanks."
"So are you going to go back to Adrian?" Gail asked clearly.
Sharona didn't quite know herself, "Um…. I'm going to try."
"What do ya mean you're going to try…. Of course he'll let you have your job back. He's obsessed with you."
"Well he has someone new now…Natalie," Sharona looked at her sisters astound face.
"Wow…. um well the least you can do is try."
"Yea…try." She trailed off
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Monk was sitting in his recliner chair in his living room, reading the newspaper carefully.
Natalie was not too far off next to him, also reading parts of the paper.
"Hmmm, look at this, Sierra Springs is 15 off at the market. You'll go pick some up for me later right?" Monk said absently.
Natalie gave him an angry look, "Mr. Monk. I can't drop everything I'm doing to accompany you. I have a daughter I have to go home to, why don't you drink the water you have."
"I…can't," he said shifting uncomfortably.
"Why not."
"Because…. it's not Sierra Springs."
"So?"
"What do you mean 'so'? You act like it's not a big deal to drink water from the…. sink." Monk formed a disgusted face and Natalie sighed at him. And started to cut out the coupon from the newspaper.
A few feet away outside Sharona peered in the window, not knowing what she was doing or why she was even there. She had just…ended up there.
She watched the two of them, acting just like they used to do.
A pang of jealousy stabbed at her heart.
Part of her wanted to leave and give up on him ever taking her back,
But then again part of her wanted to be with him so bad.
She summed up the guts to ring the doorbell, hoping he would answer.
But of course he didn't.
Natalie stared at Sharona awkwardly wondering why a tall blonde lady was standing outside of Adrian Monk's doorway.
"Hello, can I help you?" She asked nicely.
"Um, hi Natalie right?" Sharona said rubbing her head. She played absently with her red leather jacket.
"Uh yes how did you…oh. You must be… Sharona."
Monk heard Natalie say Sharona and his heart skipped a beat. He got up to see who it could possibly be….
As he caught a glance at her he froze, his eyes wide open.
Sharona saw him come in and a rush of Adrenalin flowed through her.
"Sharona?" Monk gasped ………
