Chapter seven
The hope in the future may bring
Oliver O'Toole pacing as he has left at JFK airport, waiting for paths to clear. The sun was about to set over New York. Oliver prayed that he would make it home before the clock stroke midnight on Christmas Day. Oliver sighed and knew he could not delay the inevitable by calling his wife to be and tell her he might not make it home in time for Christmas.
Back in Denver, Shane called on Ramon to check on her god kids. Shane wants to ensure them that despite having no news o Rita's condition. Ramon was trying his best to get the children to sleep at Norman and Rita's house, but the tricks of playing or reading them a story didn't seem to work, for Samuel and Ruth were trying jumping and screaming for the parents, even Auntie Shane to come home. Ramon never thought he could fail at anything. I mean, he was successful in what he set his mind to, but he could not handle these two little children for some reason.
When Shane's name came on this cell was relieving,
Shane would call to reduce him of being the babysitter. Sadly, to his dismay, she was calling to tell me that no word on Rita or Oliver was coming home. He moans in but quickly replaced it with
"Alright Shane, take the time you need. I will stay. It is just…"
"They are a handful, aren't they?"
"Yes they are not sure how to get to sleep or calm I don't have a woman touch in guiding to treat children."
"A woman's touch hmmm, alright Ramon if that is what you I am going to a woman friend call dale she might be able to help, but I do not promise anything."
"Any help would do. Thank you, Shane. Please keep me updated, will you."
"I will."
When Shane hanged up and notice she has missed Oliver phone, he was a bit annoy and mad at him as she thought
Now you want to talk Oliver well sorry, got things to handle call me and when you were coming home as you promised.
Yes, Shane's thoughts seem mean and harsh once she thought them, but she needs to feel just like Oliver needs. She loves him and wants him here to comfort her, but he is not that thought scared her more a without Oliver would be the world of wisdom and faith which her world and heart needed most.
After talking to Dale asking for her help. Over time, Dale has become cordial and acquainted during a women's bible study and volunteer nursery school at church service a couple of times a year. For the first time, Shane was relieved when Dale picked up her phone as she said,
" why Shane, it's entirely. Is everything okay?"
" Well, Rita is in the hospital, and I was wondering you can watch their adoptive twins Samuel and Ruth?"
"Text me the address I will be as soon as I can and tell Norman and Rita they are in my prayers."
Shane was about to tell her about Ramon would be there, but she hanged up before she could see her, so instead, she just texted Dale the address to Norman and Rita's house. While texting, Oliver was again trying to call her, still a bit angry for answering the first time. But she realized she could stay mad and at him because she loves him and he loves her.
