JESSY PROMISED

Mrs Larson never took her eyes away from Jessy's face seeing the concerns, "No, need for that, my dear."

Not ignoring her words Jessy was concerned about what was happening out of the office door, "I am sorry Ma'am, but I have to finish distributing snacks to the others."

Seeing Mr Larson wink, Jessy left the office, seeing Lystra was not at her desk, Jessy instructed the secretary next to her desk to answer any calls that came in.

Ignoring the gossip Jessy completes her task, then she returns to Boss's office, seeing them both relaxing, "Are you alright now Sir?"

Mr Larson smiled, "I am, fine child, and thanks for the meal, next time you make bread give Junior a few to bring home."

Mrs Larson heard her chuckle before she said, "Yes Sir!"

Jessy heard Mrs Larson grumble, as soon as the word left his mouth "Will you stop that begging for God's sake, why do you always try to embarrass me?"

Jessy saw when he smiled and said, "I am not begging, I am asking, as the word of God said, now go home and let me work."

Jessy breath was stuck in her throat, when Mrs Larson said, "I believe you are right, he must have returned home. Young lady, will you call me a taxi?" Feeling so relieved Jessy did as she was told.

"You wait here Ma'am and I will inform you immediately when the taxi arrives." Jessy takes a snack to the front desk Security, asking him to get a taxi for Mrs Larson then return to the eighth floor to get her.

When she was seated in the taxi, "Please don't worry ma'am, he will return before the day is over, I will say a word of prayer."

Florence couldn't help but say, "Thank you, my dear, I will call the office if he is home."

Jessy was just happy to see the smile on her face, responding softly, "Thank you so much, everyone is worried."

Back in the office, looking at Mr Larson, he is a wonderful person just like Brent, they are kind-hearted and love their belly, and they both love my cooking. "Come child, let us visit the Red Hill factory."

Grabbing her bag after cleaning the staff room, whispering to Sylvia then left. "Where is she off to now?" Lystra asks.

Sylvia dips her head and continues to do her work, "I have no idea Lystra, you know how she is, always running off to get something for the staff room." 

Entering the apartment after five, happy and excited, going straight into my room, "Oh Lord, my heart is truly blessed to see the portion of land Brent wants to build the home. Oh Lord let it become a reality so those that need a home will get a place to rest their head without being afraid of someone beating them or mugging them during the night, of the little they have."

Jessy closed her eyes as the entire structure infiltrated and captured her mind. Finding a large enough sheet of blank paper, forgetting her hunger she busy herself sketching out the home with pencil and ruler drawing what she visualised in her mind.

Satisfied with what she sees the home looking like and the shed for the training, the room for housing the children while the parents are being trained, "Lord, let this be true, if only he was here, I would kiss him."

"I am right here." Opening his arms as I ran into it, "You had me so worried, your parents are worried, your Dad's blood sugar dropped and I had to give him your breakfast and at lunchtime, I give him my lunch."

Embracing her in his strong arms, Brent asks, "So where is my lunch?"

Jessy lifted her head raising her hands and holding him behind his neck with a slight force causing him to dip his head so she could kiss his lips. She then replies, "It is still in the office."

Brent continued to hold her looking at her dark grapes-like eyes that were glowing with excitement, "So, where were and why are you home so late?"

"Oh B.J., I am so excited, your dad took me to the factory in Red Hill, it is open once again then he carries me to see the property where the home is to be built."

Kissing his lip hearing him groan, I release him quickly, "Oh my God, are you hurt?"
