MY girl WENDY

component part 1

Please note this is a good continuation of my little Hitchhiker, but starts off slow - very wearisome, the low gear few chapters are setting the scene.
I arrived at work that Mon to uproar. People were rushing around like headless chickens ! I got to my cube-shaped and noticed that Bob 's door - my door is always open ! - Was firmly closed and the blinds drawn. I looked to my workfellow, Adam, and mouthed 'What 's going on ?'
He looked at me, `` Head office ! That is what ! Somebody 's put a bee up their ass and now they are swarming all over the place - The Auditors are going through Bob 's Christian Bible looking at everything.
'' Shit ! Where 's that going to leave us ? '' I asked. However, ecstasy just shrugged his shoulder joint. I spent the remainder of the morning shifting through some paperwork, and thinking about Tania and Janet. With any hazard, they would be on the planer back to USA to carry on with their lives.
In the afternoon Bob finally appeared from his office, along with a couple of police officers and a man in a gray-haired suit. It seems that Bob 's dreams of retiring rich may have hit a snag.
Which left us all wondering who was the poor SOB who would be taking over Bob 's shoes, But we carried on as per pattern, although I did notice myself fielding several research from staff - to be fair many of which they could have worked out for themselves, but I did n't want to disappoint them.
By the end of the day I was so tired that I almost missed the announcement that we would have to attend a staff coming together on Tuesday, all I wanted to do was to go home and drop onto my bed.
The sound rang as I entered the home I answered it.
'' You do n't voice well papa John ! '' Tania 's welcomed voice came to my ears.
'' I 'm sorry Tania, it 's just that it 's been a feverish day, but never creative thinker that, I thought you were going back to America today. '' I said glad to hear her voice anyway.
'' Oh ma wanted to do some sightseeing - she took me to the John Griffith Chaney Dungeon, it was smashing, all the bodies and the chain of mountains. .. I enjoyed it so much ! '' I could almost show her wanting to try some of the concatenation herself. `` And we ate lunch at the descent and Guts café - you should have come with us. '' She added.
I smiled, `` I would have liked to Tania, but I do n't think my knob would have let me. '' I could discover her yawn it must have been a farseeing day for her as well.
'' I know pop lavatory, oops, here 's mum. '' Then a swoon `` It 's for you. .. '' as the sound was handed to Janet. `` howdy ? Who 's that ? '' Janet asked cautiously.
'' Hello Janet, I take it you did n't ask Tania to phone. '' I said, dropping Tania into trouble immediately.
'' Hello John - no I did n't. However, she did miss you today, so I suppose I should not be too angry with her. You sound tired. '' It was a quickly change of subject. .. but then I suppose it did repeat in my vocalisation. `` Oh just some added fun and game at work, we 're going through a hectic prison term at the moment. '' I said.
'' Do you want to talk about it ? '' Janet asked sounding all concerned.
'' No, it 's just boring work stuff and nonsense, you would n't be interested. So Tania liked looking around the donjon then ? '' I could change the discipline with the best of them.
Janet laughed, `` Oh yes, she enjoyed the trial and having to go through traitors gate, I had to contain her from looking too hard at the showing, just in suit she started to criticize them ! '' She paused for a here and now, as if debating with herself about something but then she finished by saying, `` I 'm bad John the Divine there 's a lot I 've got to do, I 'll see you again sometime. ``
'' That 's delicately Janet, I know you 've got to load down and arrange to render to United States of America, I hope Tania does n't bear you out too soon. Bye. '' I fixed myself something to eat, the remainder of the care computer software that Sonja had left. I did deliberate drowning my sorrow in whiskey again, but contented myself with watching the cretin box for a dyad of hours before stopping for the day.

I arrived at work, early for a change. If I were going to get the pouch then I would at least go fighting.
I noticed a tumid car in the visitor 's blank space. The Windows were saturnine so I could not see if anyone was in the vehicle.
I entered the building and took the lift to the third floor, finding my desk and sitting behind it. I tried to centralise on the body of work, but no sooner had I picked up my pen I was putting it down and walking with the rest period of the herd to the meeting room.
'' If I can have your care plea. .. Thank you ! '' That was Robert Clive Mortimer the Chief Executive officer of our branch of the company. `` Now as you know, there 's been a small job in the maturation area. '' There was a small amount of catcalling at that, as we knew that Bob had a bit of help from higher up and Clive was the chief defendant. `` We are expecting a illustration from Head Office to arrive today and start interviewing for Bob 's replacement, so delight give him all the help you can. We 'll be starting at 11 O'clock. ``
We ambled back to our playpen feeling like sheep about to shorn of their fleece. I pitied the poor sod that inherited us. At XI O'clock the phone started to ring, calling the sacrificial lambs to their slaughter.
Adam returned after his calling, he looked slightly shell-shocked, `` My god ! '' He said, `` She 's a right-hand one, looks so dainty but then. .. pure ice-queen, she 'd put the snowy witch to shame. '' X always had a affair about Narnia ( you know The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe ? ).
'' Who 's that ? '' I asked him - any information about the enemy is useful.
'' That person from fountainhead federal agency, it 's not a he it 's a she, asks a lot of enquiry and she knows her stuff, but BOY ! Her attitude, it stinks ! '' Robert Adam said, and he was being polite !
Just then, my phone rang, I picked it up - `` Mr. err. .. Sagittarius, will you issue forth to the meeting room. '' The person hung up, rather abruptly I thought but I got up and made my way to the group meeting way. I knocked on the door. .. `` Come ! '' 'Great !'I thought 'not even come in, just COME !'but I entered the room.
The person was sitting in a swivel chair ; its rachis was towards me. I approached the mesa and stood there, I was leave to wait. `` So Mr. Archer, why do you think you should be in care here. '' The woman said, but I was beginning to recognize the voice.
'' I do n't know if I do want to be in burster, not if I have to report to some self-important American who thinks she can boss everyone about. .. Janet ! '' I said smiling as I spoke the last.
'' There you are mummy ! I told you it would n't work. '' Tania 's interpreter came from behind me ; I turned, only to get hit in the tummy by the flying youthful girl.
Janet, for it was her. As she turned the electric chair round of drinks, she was also smiling. `` It 's adept to see you as well John Lackland. '' She said. `` You know I think I 've found the right person for this spatial relation. '' She added.
I shook my head, `` Who ? Me No way The somebody to control this crowd needs 4 handwriting, one to hold the chair, the former to hold the automobile gun and two to cause whips in them, I 'm not the one to do it. '' I told her.
She tapped the file she was holding, `` This says differently. It seems that yesterday there was a underage job with some micro chip, and you directed the squad to the job without even thinking about it. ``
'' Yes, but it was an obvious demerit, they just had n't tested it through correctly that was all, and anyway they did the work, all I did was point them in the direction. '' I said,
'' That 's what we need, a coordinator who knows what he 's doing. I have been going through our files, your name keeps coming up in our organization, and when you are involved, the arrangement have a miserable bankruptcy pace. But for some reason your predecessor failed to promote you as he should ingest. '' Janet said.
'' Of course of study he did n't, because it would receive lost him money. '' I said emphasizing the 'him'part.
'' Plus there 's the early aspect of you, your ability of keeping your mouth shut, it 's the thing we need from a handler. '' Janet said.
'' We need. Do you mean the fellowship needs ? Or am I missing something ? '' I asked Janet who looked at Tania who giggled.
'' John ? You do n't really know who I am, do you ? '' Janet asked and Tania just looked at me without giving clues.
'' Not really, I mean I know you are Janet John Luther Jones and that you 're quite eminent up in the company. .. '' I began but then Tania started to giggle away. “. .. Very high up ? '' I queried, and Janet nodded her head.
'' mommy 's the owner of the companionship at home. '' Tania said.
'' well I 'm the majority stockholder of the parent companionship. '' Janet said. .. This meter I sat down in shock.
'' I do n't remember seeing your name on the board, and I 'm sure that the parent troupe 's address is n't that Funiculaireville stead. '' I said
Janet smiled, `` Oh daddy started the caller in New York State, it 's just when he met my female parent while he was in Funiculaireville that he settled down there, I inherited his share of the company when he died, and I 'm not mentioned on the plank, except as J.A. Williams, my maiden name. '' I thought about it and yes, J.A. Sir Bernard Williams was one of the fourth-year appendage of the board.
'' I see, '' I said and turned to Tania, `` And why did n't you say anything when I was talking about where I worked ? '' I asked her.
'' But pappa John ! I do n't hump all the lieu that mummy owns, and anyway you were the one who told her, not me ! '' Tania defended herself from my charge. However, I picked her up and placed her over my human knee anyway.
'' Mr. bowman do you think this is the dear way to conduct yourself during an interview ? '' Janet said in an definitive voice.
'' Maybe not, but what a way to get elicit ! '' I said and, flipping Tania 's skirt up to let out her naked backside, I brought my bridge player down three times on her flesh. `` Tania how daring. .. you come here. .. without your pants on ! '' I said to the flushed-faced girl.
'' I 'm sorry papa John, but how did you fuck ? '' Tania said. As I rubbed my hand over her scratch,
'' I 've learnt about you Tania, you 'd go raw to schooltime if you thought you 'd get away with it. '' I stopped fingering the girl and set her onto the ground on unsteady peg. I then turned to Janet, `` I suppose I told you everything about Bob, and that explains about the audit check yesterday ? ``
She gave a sheepish nod, `` I 'm afraid so John, when I heard on the audio where you worked and what was happening I ordered an prompt assay. I also suggested that we try to bump a replenishment. .. which was you. '' She reached out a hand to me, `` Welcome to upper management John. ``
I looked up to the ceiling `` Why me Almighty ? What did I do wrong ? '' I said to the air, but I accepted her hand and shook it.
Janet just smiled at me, `` Why can did n't you experience ? No good human action ever goes unpunished ! ``

Part 2
.
Over the next, few weeks'life, for me, was hectic. I was shown how to running the section for real instead of just being a cog in the bike. I wished that Janet had chosen individual else for the job, but then after a bit everything just seemed to 'click'into stead, and started to run smoothly.
Then I received a missive from social Services, it appears that on checking their databases I was on the listing that showed I was a risk of exposure to children by accident, after looking in to it they have cleared me and they apologized for any inconvenience that this had caused me ( ! )
I was tempted to narrate them exactly what it had cost me, my daughter, my life and nearly my sanity. However, how can you spell that in a letter of the alphabet. .. without it bursting into flame ?
I finally settled on a simple reply stating that I had received their letter and had passed it onto my solicitor who would be ensuring that the local police force are informed ; I later found out that he also applied to the mixer Services for indemnification caused by their defamation of my name. Therefore, I was going to be fairly well-situated off.
I did get wind from Tania and Janet during that time, they had returned to the States. .. It was strange to hear from them during my evenings knowing they were just finishing breakfast and getting ready for work or schooltime. One piece was memorable.
'' I thought about what you said that day at your property. '' Tania told me one day giggling.
'' What was that ? '' I asked. .. well we had discussed respective things while she was with me.
'' About going to schoolhouse without apparel '' Tania said still giggling, `` Well we 're doing diachronic people today. .. and I 'm going as Lady Go diva ! '' She burst into laugh completely and then Janet came onto the line.
'' Hello John, I 've checked with the school and they 're okay with her doing this, but she does n't know she 's going to have to stay like that all day. '' I could hear a gasp and then more laughter from Tania as this sunk in.
'' I hope you 've got a sawbuck for her to ride ? '' I asked.
'' Oh yes a nice little filly, well trained and suitable. '' Janet said also with a lilt in her voice
'' Good at least one of them will be ! '' I said dryly which caused Janet to laugh aloud ; I heard Tania asking what was so funny, after Janet told her, she gave an indignant 'humph'and must have taken hold of the phone.
'' Daddy John ! That is not decent ! I can be good as well ! ''
'' There 's no need to get on your gamey cavalry about it, by the way how gamey is your horse ? '' I asked her my humor coming out
'' It 's just the right size of it. .. like you ! '' Tania said giggling, `` Why do n't you come over here to find out ? ``
'' Tania ! '' I heard Janet saying - although she was laughing away as she said it. `` Apologize to bathroom and then hand me the earpiece ! ``
'' Sorry daddy whoremaster. '' Said Tania, but from the swing in her voice, I did not imagine she meant it.
'' That 's alright Miss Knickers. '' I said ( no I did n't take it too seriously either ), and I heard her giggle away as she handed the phone back to Janet.
'' I do n't know who 's speculative, you or her ? '' Janet said
'' She is,"I said while hearing 'he is !'over the speech sound from Tania. That night I went to bed with a grinning on my face and dream of being Peeping Tom.

After a calendar month more, everything was running smoothly, we had established a routine of synchronizing with America of our data as well as instituting off-site saves of our databases, so that if the building burnt down we 'd be able to save up up to the previous two days.
That was when the thunderclap dropped on me. Actually, it dropped on my ex-wife and her husband. I was in their fallout.
The first sign I had was a local new detail - 'Police have raided respective local houses today, the reasons for this are not yet known, we expect more information soon'I heard that but took no notice of it.
However, the next day I was disturbed at work. `` I 'm sorry sir, but there 's a Mrs Atchison here who wishes to see you. She does n't receive an appointment '' That was my escritoire Eileen.
'' What companionship does she represent Eileen ? '' I asked - I had a desk entire of paper and program, which I was working on,
'' Err. .. she says she 's from sociable Services, and it 's significant. '' Came the reply.
I did not swear well not out gimcrack. Therefore, they were disturbing me here now ! I suppose they were going to say that they had made a mistake with the letter and I am still a menace to society ! I looked at the clock ; well at least I will have muckle of prison term to get my solicitor onto their vertebral column when she was finished. `` Alright Eileen, send her in. .. and come in as well, I may call for you to take aim bank bill. '' Eileen was quite a fast speed-writer.
Mrs. Atchison entered the room ; she was not acting haughtily but seemed almost apologetic. I allowed her to sit down and Eileen sat behind her with pen and notepad in hand.
'' Mr. bowman, I 'm not for sure how to approach this. '' Mrs Atchison started ; there was an accent in her voice, a slightly familiar accent.
'' Well if it to give an apology then I 'm afraid that my solicitor is already taking pace against your department, I must admit I did n't expect anyone to seem in social club to constitute me stop. .. '' I was saying, but then the look on her face made me block. `` But. .. that 's not why you 're here, is it ? '' I finished by saying.
She looked back at Eileen and then shook her head. `` I 'm afraid I 'm new to this area, I understand there is a trouble between yourself and our role but I do n't recognise what it is, I think that 's why they sent me to ask you this. '' She said.
I looked at Eileen who was studying me, and a piece of music played itself in my psyche, `` I keep on cerebration of her day and night. .. ``
'' free pardon '' Mrs. Atchison said I had not realized that I had spoken aloud.
'' I 'm good-for-naught Mrs Atchison, just something that came to me, I do n't live why. '' I said.
She smiled slightly, `` It sounded like a piece of ELO. '' She said.
'' It was, anyway Mrs. Atchison what is it you want to tell me. '' I said without explaining.
'' It concerns your daughter, err. .. Wendy. '' She said and paused.
'' She 's with her female parent who took her to live with her boyfriend ; I 'm not allowed to see her. '' I said flatly.
'' Yes, well there is a problem at the moment, as her just relative we need to make love if you 'll accept the responsibility of looking after her. '' I must admit that my inaugural reply was 'huh ?'Mrs. Atchison repeated herself.
'' I did learn what you said but I do n't understand. Why ca n't her mother look after her ? '' I said, not knowing why I was delaying, this was my girl, the one I had taken from me. I should accept been shouting 'YES, YES !'but here I was asking questions.
'' well Wendy 's been taken into care after both her mother and step-father were arrested yesterday. '' Mrs. Atchison explained, `` We 've tried to find any other congener on your ex 's side, but none of them wanted to accept her. ``
I shook my brain, `` No, they did n't like her either, for the number one reason she marrying me, and then for leaving me. '' I explained her kin, like her, was strange to the extreme point ! `` But I will take Wendy ; I 'm surprised that your department bothered to ask me. '' I said.
'' I must take on that the get together was interesting. '' Mrs. Atchison admitted, `` But the head said that we had to ask you. ''
'' And you were the one given the dead shuck. '' I said making her grin,
'' Yes, I must hold that you do n't appear to be the person I 've read about in the files. '' She said and then colored up, `` I 'm dreary, I should n't make said that. '' She looked back pointedly at Eileen who was still writing away furiously.
I took the wind. `` I think that 's all I need Eileen, you would n't heed getting some tea for Mrs. Atchison and myself would you ? '' I asked her.
She looked up and smiled, `` Certainly Mr. Archer, milk and sugar ? '' She asked Mrs. Atchison.
'' Milk River and two sweeteners please, Miss. .. ''
'' name me Eileen, I 'll be some minutes. '' Eileen said.
'' Call me Martha please Eileen. '' Mrs. Atchison, Martha, said.
Eileen smiled and left the room, Martha turned back to me, `` I have to tell you Mr. Sagittarius the Archer that I 'm an exchange operative, my late office was in a townspeople in US, you may have heard of it. .. it 's called. .. ``
'' Funiculaireville ? '' I said smiling - yes, I knew that accent was associate. `` How 's Janet ? ``
'' You 're prompt. I 'm sorry to say that I do n't personally know Mrs. John Paul Jones, but we are cognizant of your. .. interaction with Tania. '' She was smiling as she said this and so I understood that she was okay with my actions.
'' So what 's the story about Wendy ? '' I asked her.
'' There are some signs of abuse, it 's principally mental but there is a degree of physical abuse as well. '' She said watching me closely.
Anger flowed through me, and showed on my font, `` How badly has she been abused ? '' I asked.
Martha shook her head, `` I 'm not sure, she does n't require to verbalise about it, we 've have checkup hoi polloi examine her but she 's be beaten, there is evidence of anal insight but she still has her Hymen, for the life of me I do n't have intercourse why. '' I knew I was shocked at her frankness but my heart went out to Wendy. ``
'' Where is she at the moment ? '' I asked Martha.
'' She 's at the hospital still ; we did n't have anywhere to commit her for the abruptly clock time. If you wish to see her I can occupy you there now. '' She told me, just then, Eileen entered the room carrying two cups, I was half tempted to drop everything and run to the hospital there and then, but I just could not. .. could I ?
'' Eileen, I 've got to go, can you get XTC and Sam in here please. '' I asked my secretary she nodded and went to the outer office.
Within minutes both XTC and Samantha Hopkins had arrived, Eileen sent them straight person in, `` I 'm deplorable to do this to you both but I 've got a personal trouble that 's just arisen, I need you both to wrap up for me. '' I said. They both agreed that they would help me without questioning. I showed them the problem I had been working on, the direction I was thinking about going, and they left discussing it.
I then dialed Baron Clive Roger de Mortimer, `` Hi Baron Clive of Plassey, I 'm going to need some time off I have a family emergency to deal with. ``
'' No way ! We have got too much on our plate at the moment to let you just fell everything. You ca n't go. '' Baron Clive said.
'' I 'm sorry you feel that way Baron Clive of Plassey, I had hoped that what I 've done had helped the party, but now I need to. .. '' But Baron Clive of Plassey interrupted me.
'' Look Johnny the answer is NO. Got it N. O now how 's that problem we 've sent you ? '' he asked. I hung up the phone.
'' Let 's go. '' I said to Martha and picked up my crownwork. As we left my position I called to Eileen, `` If Clive calls you do n't recognise where I am and you do n't be intimate who I 'm with. .. I doubt if I 'll be back. '' I said as I walked into the lift.
As we descended Martha spoke, `` I take it you 've got problem ? '' She asked.
'' Well it appears that I 'm not allowed to have personal problems, the company comes first. '' I told her.
'' And you are with me because. .. '' She prompted.
'' I 'm with you because my girl comes first. She needs me more than than the society does, early people can do my job here, but only I can help my daughter. '' I told her.
She nodded and smiled, `` That 's what I was lead to believe, and do you ask any worry when we get to reception ? ``
I thought for a second. If Clive was the everlasting bastard that I thought he might be then I could expect our burly surety people would try to quit me. I pressed the indorse floor button. `` It could be that we 'll need to use the fire escape instead of the front room access, do you have a car handy. '' I asked her
'' Yes, it 's in the back parking lot. '' She said.
I felt like it was a television show as Martha and I broke the plastic restraining clip on the fire room access, hearing the alarm sound as we ran down the metal fervency escape and then to the car parkland, jumping into her car and screeching off with security measure guards running behind us. We both laughed as we turned onto the main road.

'' This is existing ! cypher told me that Social Services could be so energise. '' Martha said as we turned into the infirmary parking area.
I smiled ruefully, `` I think I 've just resigned from my job. '' I said.
'' Oh I do n't remember we can allow that, I 'll see what I can do. '' Martha confided to me and escorted me to the pediatric wards.
We arrived at the nurse 's desk and Martha introduced me as Wendy 's father, the nurse looked up surprised. `` I 'm sorry who did you say you were ? '' She asked, when Martha persisted the nanny directed us to a side-room.
We entered the room to regain it was empty, and then the Sister in charge of the ward entered. Martha spoke up, `` What 's improper, I 've identified myself and this gentleman, why have n't we been taken to Wendy ? '' She asked.
I spoke up, `` Is there something wrong with my girl ? '' The Sister looked at me as if surprised I could speak.
'' Not with your daughter as such, but with her knowledge of you. '' She stated flatly.
'' If it 's the hearsay that I 'm some case of deviate then I have to evidence you. .. '' I started but the baby stopped me there and then.
'' It 's not your personal life I 'm on about, well in a way it is. Wendy is under the effect that you 're dead ! '' I looked at her undetermined mouthed.
'' I can control you that I 'm perfectly goodish, now why does Wendy think this ? '' I asked her.
The sister shook her head, `` I do n't know, but when we told her that her father was coming to pick her up she started to cry, we tried to tell her it was n't the man that her mother was living with and all she would say is 'but daddy is dead !''' The Sister replied.
Martha took ascendency. `` I suggest you bring Wendy into this way and we 'll see how she reacts. '' The sister looked slightly in question about that but went away.
A nurse brought a Loretta Young little girl into the room and sat beside her, Martha smiled at Wendy, `` howdy again Wendy, do you commemorate me ? '' She asked.
Wendy nodded and looked at me as if trying to make up one's mind who I was, she walked to me and then looked at my face, she was biting her humiliated lip as if trying to make up her mind.
'' You look like my pa did. '' She said softly.
'' I am your pop Wendy. '' I said, also quietly but she shook her head.
'' You ca n't be ! mum told me that daddy was dead a longsighted clip ago. '' She said in a decisive tone.
'' But your mummy and I broke up respective years ago. ``
'' No, mummy told me that you did n't want to see us again, that was why you threw us out and we moved in with HIM ! '' There was a smell to that last piece.
'' It was n't like that Wendy, but at the moment I 'm for certain you would n't believe that. '' I said, not forcibly I did not want to upset her.
She shook her head a sat down on a chair, not looking at anyone. I gave a worried glance at Martha who just shook her head slightly.
'' But. .. but why would mummy ? But momma said. .. dad. .. pappa ? '' Wendy said looking at me confused. I nodded my head.
'' Yes Wendy, I am your dad, I 've been waiting to see you for so hanker, I 've missed you darling. '' I said - yes there were tears in my eyes.
'' Why did you leave us ? '' Wendy asked me.
'' I did n't, your mother told me that she did n't want to remain with me, she left me taking you with her. '' I said, `` Will you come back to me ? '' I asked her softly.
'' Do you want me to ? You wo n't send me away again will you ? '' Wendy asked me through tear-laden eyes.
I got up from my rear and approached my daughter, I went down onto my knees so that my mind was level with hers and I looked into her middle. `` Wendy I promise you that while I live you will not have to leave me, unless you wish to. '' I said to her, while crossing my philia with a finger - something I had jokingly done when she had been with me.
She watched my hand rather than my face and then she smiled, `` DADDY ! '' she said and threw her blazon around my neck opening. Martha, who had been watching both of us, nodded her head.
'' I 'm satisfied that Wendy has accepted her Padre and will eject her into his care. '' She said formally, if you would n't mind bringing Wendy 's clothes and I 'll have a password with the Sister in complaint. '' Martha said taking the nursemaid out of the elbow room leaving me with my girl .
