SARAHIAH MEETS MARGRET

  Caleb wondered, 'Who would be calling her that late, maybe she was still asleep, and missed it, but I didn't know when she woke up, I would have liked to speak with her but then she didn't seem to care before so why would she care now..'

Leaving a note on top of her briefcase that was on top of the table.

'Good morning, I will see you this evening, I wanted to stay home but I have a meeting for nine-fifteen. Your brothers brought your car last night when they came to visit.

Caleb.'

The thought crosses his mind as he looks at her before leaving the room, 'Maybe it was her boyfriend calling her, he knows she lives alone and she wakes late so they chat around that time,' Caleb assumed.

Walking down the stairs when his mom asks. "Caleb, are you going to work today son?"

"Mom, I have a meeting for half nine and I can't cancel it, remember this marriage was a spur of the moment arrangement, but don't worry I will return home early."

Wanting to know if he will wait for the young lady as he used to do, "Have you spoken to your wife as yet? I know she was asleep when we left your room last night?"

"No mom, when I went to bed she was still sleeping and sometime during the night, she woke up. I leave her sleeping but don't worry we will eventually get around to it, and mom doesn't wake her from what I notice around her eyes are dark. so she needs the rest."

Half nine, Margret walked up to the room, knocking, getting no answer she opened the door, "Sarah, are you awake?" Recalling Caleb's words to leave her to rest but I have to reach the store.

Seeing her still in bed, touching her hand but she was sound asleep, "Sarah, it is time to get up. Sarah, get up please."

Hearing her pleading, Sarahiah opened her eyes, seeing a woman leaning over her with a worried frown.

Looking to the side where the gentleman had been sleeping, but it was empty. 'Boy this is not good my first day here and who is this person? I only hope she is the maid if they have one.'

Hearing her say, "Caleb already went to work my dear, he ask me not to wake you and he didn't want you to be afraid, but I need a favor." 'Why on earth would I be afraid?'

Sarahiah nod her head, Margret continued, "Honey, Caleb left early for work and the store just called me and they need me to come in, could you take me?"

'So his name is Caleb, well that is nice, "I don't have my car, are there another vehicle, I could use to take you."

Looking at her, "Love, your brothers were here last night, they brought your car saying that you will need it for work."

"Thank God, I thought I would have to call a taxi, will you give me thirty minutes and I will be down."

"Thanks, love, I really appreciate the favor, and Sarah, Caleb has a spare key in that draw, when you are coming down, lock your door," Margret responds, knowing Petal's hand is fast and might want to enter the room when we left.

"Are you his mom?" Sarahiah asks not wanting to say anything to offend her.

"Yes, love, I am Margret, and when you come downstairs you will meet his dad." 'She sounds pleasant enough, thank God for that because he seems to be a grouchy dude, but pretty handsome or maybe too handsome for his own good.'

Seeing her smile as she got off the bed and went to the washroom. Sarahiah heard the door close. Walking down the stairs Margret wonders, 'What she must be thinking about her, but she looks obedient enough and she is very pretty.'

Sarahiah stood under the shower thinking to herself, 'God this is so embarrassing that his mom had to come and wake me.

I wonder what she must be thinking. I should have set my alarm but I wasn't planning to go to work today, my only plan was to visit dad at the hospital.

Dressing she thought, 'Now I am married and I have a responsibility, I have to stop thinking that I am alone, he has a family.'
