Chapter 17
You spent all morning picking out the best outfit, the rest of the afternoon
fixing hair and make-up. It was finally time to meet Isaac in the living room
before departure. Walking around the corner, you finding Isaac waiting the in
living room, holding a single white rose. You give him a quizzical look as he
hands it to you. “What’s this for?” You ask him shyly.
“To show you that I am proud of you and no matter what happens this
evening I stand by what you say and or do. And finally that I love you.”
“Well... thank you much. I do appreciate it.” Diana takes it and
places in a vase on the coffee table.
“Shall we?” He extends his arm out to you.
“We shall,” you nod at him as you slip your arm through his.
“Are ya nervous?” He asks as you climb in the car.
“Yeah, a little. I don’t really know what to say. I’m afraid of what they
are going to say or do. It’s totally awkward.”
“You’ll be just fine,” you can feel his eyes on you for a moment. You
smile and gaze out the window, knowing that no matter what happens, you will
have Isaac’s arms to run to. You couldn’t help but wonder how your life would
be different when you’d go home.
Before you knew it, the Outback was right in front of you. You drew
in one more breathe, before you open your door. Your heart started to pump.
Something was going to be different about this meeting, you could sense it. As
you passed through the front doors of the restuarant, you looked around for
Frank, but there was no sign of him. You checked your watch, and it was 5 till
7:00 pm. They still had time to get there.
Isaac told the waitress to go ahead and seat the two of you, but there
were would be three more joining you. You begin to nervously tap your fingers
on the table. Isaac reaches over and takes hold of your hand. Your eyes meet
his.
“There is nothing to be nervous about....” he tells you.
“Nervous? You think I’m nervous? I’m not nervous. I’m just....
bored.... yeah, that’s it. Bored sitting here.” He smiles and squeezes your hand.
All of a sudden, your hear your name being paged, claiming that you have a
phone call. As you stand, Isaac takes hold of your hand.
“That’s me....” you say to the hostess. She hands you the phone.
“Hello? Yes. Huh.... okay.... okay.... I’ll..... I’ll be right there. Bye.” Your face
turns pale, and your eyes are wide. Isaac squeezes your hand, yet again.
Tears form on the brim of your eyes. “It’s Frank. He’s in the hospital. He had a
heartattack, they don’t think he’ll make it through the night. Can you take me to
the hospital?”
“Of course,” he kisses your forehead and helps you to the car. He
takes the fastest way possible. You quickly plan what you are going to say to
Frank.
