Eight Six

Caleb then took the grocery items inside, seeing Petal coming in the kitchen, he took out a carton of milk, "Will you take a warm glass of milk to Sarahiah, please, while I bring in the remaining bags."

Petal entered the room with the milk and a glass of water, she noticed Sarah eyes were closed, "Sarah are you awake? I brought you a glass of milk." She rested the glass on the dresser, then went and get a small center table and returned, "Let me help you sit up."

Petal fixed her, then set the center table in front of her, resting the milk and water. Sitting on the bed she said, "You look so tired, drink the milk, then try and rest."

"Thank you so much Petal."

"No Sarah, I must thank you, and don't worry, I won't make any trouble."

"Who says you make trouble?"

"Everyone at home does."

"You don't worry, we are friends, and you are welcome to stay as long as you wish, until mom is calm down."

"Sarah, mom is very angry, it might be for a good few days."

"There's no need to worry, we will pray, I know Jesus will calm her down. Your brother told me dad is admitted in the hospital, when he gets discharge, he is welcome to stay."

"Thank you very much, you are so kind."

Monday morning came and Caleb used Sarahiah's van to drive around, dropping out resumes and calling ads that were published in the classified, which seemed suitable for him.

...

Friday morning before he left he heard Sarahiah saying, "Will you leave my van? I need to do something."

"Sweetheart, if you need something I will get it for you, I don't want you driving." Leaving home Caleb took his van and drives around. Going through his mind, The week had progressed slowly and no reply came, he decided to visit S&S store Entering the store whispering a word of prayer then went to speak to the assistant manager, "Good morning sir, a friend told me you might be needing a manager."

"Sorry, I am not aware of that, but if you will wait outside for a few minutes I will call the boss to query on your request," the assistant manager said. Caleb was about to close the door when the gentleman asked, "Oh sir, what's your name?"

"It's Caleb Christian sir."

"Good, I will call you in a minute."

"Sir, do you mind if I look around while I wait?"

"Feel free."

Caleb walked through the store, thinking, 'I was tempted so many times to come in, but seeing the vast changes that has taken place within the six months since I sold the store, is phenomenal. I could have done the same with my stores, but what's the use now, when Sarahiah change around things it had boustead up the sales. Thank God I was able to retrieve some of my saving. Who would have thought I would be looking for a job in the same store I sold..'
