Later that day I received a call from Mr. Parker asking me If I would be available and I informed him I would be, there was no use in giving up an extra high paying job because my new boss was a bit, eccentric. "Good Some friends and I will be going.... On an excursion. We may need your services." "aah one of your drunken fishing trips.. got ya. when and where?" "I will have Samantha send you the address of a place. You will need to stay there I will call you if your not needed." With that he hung up. I looked at my phone and chuckled he sure was an odd one. I went to the address Samantha had given me and opened the door with the number code exactly like she had instructed. This was odd it was a whole floor of a building one part of it seemed to be some sort of lab. The other side seemed to be his living area. The whole place smelled like him. This made me nervous. There were aIfew photos and various artworks of him laying around so I couldn't even relax without thinking I was in some strange man's apartment.
This was a first, I didn't touch anything I was too afraid if I had touched something I might have broken it. I nearly jumped out of my skin when the phone rang. I looked at the caller Id and noticed it was Mr. Parker. I picked it up and he spoke on the other end. "looks like its all good here you will not be needed tonight. You can go home if you like." "Mr. Parker, I do not feel all that appropriate here. I believe it would be best if I were to take the equipment home until you could find an office area close by that would suit." "Are you sure? I mean why?" "its just safer .. don't ask.. One I hate to be walking so late at night so if you don't need me walking home at "I looked at my watch "three am would not be so bad if I were say right next door or in my own place however walking halfway across town .. that's very unsafe." "your right. Take what you need and I will look into getting you a shop near by. Thanks Stephanie." My stomach flipped. I heard him hang up the phone and I grabbed the bags of equipment and taking one last look smiled at the photo as a thought of how intriguing his ever thinking mind made him. I had to take a deep breath and let it out slowly. I was getting all worked up over a thought and a photo, Oy was this going to be a difficult job. I left just as I had been instructed and walked the whole way home carrying the three bags of basic medical supplies. I was never more glad to have entered my own home than when I did. I knew that if someone had wanted to they could have accosted me and taken what I had in those bags and sold it on the black market for a pretty penny. I quickly placed the bags in my front closet by the door and went to write in my diary.
Tuesday rolled around and I quietly walked to Morgan’s office. I found my way upstairs to her office and opened the door. I expected to see a Secretary but there was none. I saw Morgan come out and tell me she had yet to higher one and she smiled and invited me into her office. I stepped through the door and she motioned for me to have a seat. We discussed a bit of insurance matters. I signed a few papers and she seemed more than happy to be billing Mr. Parker. Perhaps she was a bit perturbed he would suggest such an outlandish thing as a shared dream. I proceeded to tell her about the gunshot and that I had yet to experience one. "I believe that is why I experienced such an odd dream." I shivered visibly at the thought of the dream. Morgan suggested that she should try hypnotizing me. I laughed "I don't believe in that you will have a very hard time." She just smiled and nodded replying," we will see." I didn't notice her mouthing a few words but I remember a shiny object in front of me. I opened my eyes. "I told you ..wait.. What time is it?" Something felt a bit off as it seems darker in the room than it had when I first entered the room. Morgan smiled. "I think that is enough for today." "You mean I actually succumbed to this.. Hypnotism thing?" She smiled "Afraid so." I had hopped I didn't say anything about what I had been thinking and or feeling about Mr. Parker. Morgan smiled and said "I think you need a day off. I will write you an excuse. I want you to go home relax finish unpacking. Dreams often symbolize something that has happened to us in life. Just make sure you take the next few days easy. Throw a party or something." I nodded and walked out the door with my work excuse and sighed. How was I going to earn the cash for school if I didn't continue to work. I walked to the hospital and handed in my excuse and invited Alice to my party. She accepted and I walked to the campus grabbed my schedule and was told if I had any questions or problems with it to come back and let them know. I then walked to the store and picked up a few things I knew I would need and smiled on my way home.
Once at home I called Mr. Parker and informed him that I would not be available to work for at least 24 hours. Morgan had given me an excuse and I would give it to him when I saw him next. I thought I might have heard Morgan in the background but I shrugged it off and hung up then called Samantha and invited her Mr. Parker and Mr. Grevinsworth, whom was Mr. Parker's business associate, and Samantha herself to my dinner party. A few hours later Samantha called me back informing me that Mr. Parker would be bringing a guest with him to the dinner. I smiled and Dialed the number on the business card that Morgan had given me. 251Please respect copyright.PENANAtghC79IUDm
