My Daughter Wendy ( 0 )
FantasyMY girl WENDY
role 1
Please note this is a continuation of my little Hitchhiker, but starts off tiresome - very slow, the first few chapters are setting the scene.
I arrived at oeuvre that Monday to uproar. people were rushing around like headless chickens ! I got to my cubical and noticed that Bob 's threshold - my door is always open ! - Was firmly closed and the subterfuge drawn. I looked to my co-worker, Adam, and mouthed 'What 's going on ?'
He looked at me, `` Head office ! That is what ! soul 's put a bee up their ass and now they are swarming all over the place - The Auditors are going through Bob 's books looking at everything.
'' Shit ! Where 's that going to lead us ? '' I asked. However, Adam just shrugged his shoulders. I spent the respite of the morning shifting through some paperwork, and thinking about Tania and Janet. With any fate, they would be on the plane back to the States to take 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 Robert Gray cause. It seems that Bob 's dreams of retiring rich may cause hit a snag.
Which left us all wondering who was the poor bastard who would be taking over Bob 's skid, But we carried on as per rule, although I did find myself fielding various interrogation from staff - to be honest 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 fatigue that I almost missed the promulgation that we would have to assist a stave merging on Tuesday, all I wanted to do was to go base and drop onto my bed.
The phone rang as I entered the theater I answered it.
'' You do n't sound well pa trick ! '' Tania 's welcome voice came to my ears.
'' I 'm sorry Tania, it 's just that it 's been a hectic day, but never mind that, I thought you were going back to America today. '' I said gladiolus to discover her vocalism anyway.
'' Oh mummy wanted to do some sightseeing - she took me to the Greater London Dungeon, it was smashing, all the bodies and the chains. .. I enjoyed it so a lot ! '' I could almost picture her wanting to try some of the chemical chain herself. `` And we ate lunch at the Blood and Guts café - you should have come with us. '' She added.
I smiled, `` I would have liked to Tania, but I do n't call up my bosses would receive let me. '' I could get a line her yawning it must give been a hanker day for her as well.
'' I know daddy John, oops, here 's mammy. '' Then a swoon `` It 's for you. .. '' as the phone was handed to Janet. `` Hello ? Who 's that ? '' Janet asked cautiously.
'' Hello Janet, I take it you did n't ask Tania to phone. '' I said, dropping Tania into fuss immediately.
'' Hello John - no I did n't. However, she did leave out you today, so I suppose I should not be too furious with her. You sound tired. '' It was a spry alteration of subject. .. but then I suppose it did reverberate in my phonation. `` Oh just some added fun and biz at work, we 're going through a hectic meter at the instant. '' I said.
'' Do you desire to sing about it ? '' Janet asked sounding all concerned.
'' No, it 's just boring body of work stuff, you would n't be interested. So Tania liked looking around the dungeon then ? '' I could exchange the subject with the best of them.
Janet laughed, `` Oh yes, she enjoyed the trial and having to go through double-dealer gate, I had to stop her from looking too hard at the showing, just in case she started to criticize them ! '' She paused for a moment, as if debating with herself about something but then she finished by saying, `` I 'm regretful privy there 's a lot I 've got to do, I 'll see you again sometime. ``
'' That 's fine Janet, I know you 've got to pack and arrange to return to America, I hope Tania does n't wear you out too soon. Bye. '' I fixed myself something to eat, the remainder of the charge package that Sonja had left. I did conceive drowning my rue in whiskey again, but contented myself with watching the moron box for a brace of hours before stopping for the day.
I arrived at body of work, early for a variety. If I were going to get the sack then I would at least go fighting.
I noticed a bombastic car in the visitor 's outer space. The Windows were dark so I could not see if anyone was in the vehicle.
I entered the building and took the ski lift to the tierce storey, finding my desk and sitting behind it. I tried to center on the work, but no Oklahoman had I picked up my pen I was putting it down and walking with the respite of the herd to the merging room.
'' If I can have got your aid pleases. .. Thank you ! '' That was Clive Mortimer the chieftain executive director Officer of our branch of the company. `` Now as you know, there 's been a small problem in the development area. '' There was a diminished amount of catcalling at that, as we knew that Bob had a bit of supporter from high up and Robert Clive was the headman suspect. `` We are expecting a representative from Head agency to arrive today and start interviewing for Bob 's refilling, so please yield 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 hapless sod that inherited us. At xi O'clock the phones started to ring, calling the sacrificial Charles Lamb to their slaughter.
Adam returned after his calling, he looked slightly shell-shocked, `` My god ! '' He said, `` She 's a right one, looks so nice but then. .. virgin ice-queen, she 'd put the egg white hag to disgrace. '' Adam always had a matter about Narnia ( you know The king of beasts, The beldame and the Wardrobe ? ).
'' Who 's that ? '' I asked him - any information about the foeman is useful.
'' That mortal from head agency, it 's not a he it 's a she, asks a lot of interrogative sentence and she knows her stuff, but BOY ! Her mental attitude, it stinks ! '' Adam said, and he was being polite !
Just then, my phone rang, I picked it up - `` Mr. err. .. Archer, will you come to the meeting way. '' The individual hung up, rather abruptly I thought but I got up and made my way to the coming together room. I knocked on the threshold. .. `` Come ! '' 'Great !'I thought 'not even come in, just ejaculate !'but I entered the room.
The soul was sitting in a swivel chair ; its spine was towards me. I approached the board and stood there, I was uncoerced to hold off. `` So Mr. Sagittarius the Archer, why do you imagine you should be in charge here. '' The woman said, but I was beginning to recognize the voice.
'' I do n't make out if I do want to be in commission, not if I have to account to some chesty American English who thinks she can boss everyone about. .. Janet ! '' I said smiling as I spoke the last.
'' There you are mom ! I told you it would n't cultivate. '' Tania 's voice came from behind me ; I turned, only to get hit in the stomach by the flying Loretta Young girl.
Janet, for it was her. As she turned the chair round, she was also smiling. `` It 's honorable to see you as well privy. '' She said. `` You know I think I 've found the rightfield person for this position. '' She added.
I shook my head, `` Who ? Me No way The somebody to control this bunch needs 4 script, one to hold the chairperson, the other to hold in the machine gun and two to have lash 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 minor job with some chips, and you directed the squad to the job without even thinking about it. ``
'' Yes, but it was an obvious fault, they just had n't tested it through correctly that was all, and anyway they did the study, all I did was repoint 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 Indian file, your name keeps coming up in our system of rules, and when you are involved, the organisation have a downcast failure rate. But for some reasonableness your forerunner failed to upgrade you as he should sustain. '' Janet said.
'' Of class he did n't, because it would hold lost him money. '' I said emphasizing the 'him'part.
'' Plus there 's the early facial expression of you, your ability of keeping your mouthpiece shut, it 's the thing we need from a manager. '' Janet said.
'' We need. Do you imply the fellowship needs ? Or am I missing something ? '' I asked Janet who looked at Tania who giggled.
'' Saint 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 Inigo Jones and that you 're quite high up in the company. .. '' I began but then Tania started to giggle away. “. .. Very heights up ? '' I queried, and Janet nodded her head.
'' momma 's the proprietor of the company at rest home. '' Tania said.
'' well I 'm the legal age shareowner of the parent society. '' Janet said. .. This fourth dimension I sat down in shock.
'' I do n't remember seeing your figure on the table, and I 'm certain that the parent fellowship 's address is n't that Funiculaireville post. '' I said
Janet smiled, `` Oh daddy started the society in New House of 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 troupe when he died, and I 'm not mentioned on the board, except as J.A. Hiram Williams, my inaugural name. '' I thought about it and yes, J.A. Williams was one of the senior penis 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 dad John ! I do n't have sex all the seat that mummy owns, and anyway you were the one who told her, not me ! '' Tania defended herself from my accusation. However, I picked her up and placed her over my knees anyway.
'' Mr. Archer do you recollect this is the in force way to conduct yourself during an interview ? '' Janet said in an authoritative voice.
'' Maybe not, but what a way to get dismiss ! '' I said and, flipping Tania 's skirt up to reveal her naked backside, I brought my script down three prison term on her flesh. `` Tania how dare. .. you come here. .. without your drawers on ! '' I said to the flushed-faced girl.
'' I 'm sorry dada John, but how did you know ? '' Tania said. As I rubbed my hand over her pussy,
'' I 've learnt about you Tania, you 'd go bare to schoolhouse if you thought you 'd get away with it. '' I stopped fingering the girl and set her onto the footing on unsteady legs. I then turned to Janet, `` I suppose I told you everything about Bob, and that explains about the audit stay yesterday ? ``
She gave a sheepish nod, `` I 'm afraid so St. John, when I heard on the audio where you worked and what was happening I ordered an immediate check. I also suggested that we try to find a replacement. .. which was you. '' She reached out a hand to me, `` Welcome to upper management bathroom. ``
I looked up to the cap `` Why me Godhead ? What did I do wrong ? '' I said to the air, but I accepted her hand and shook it.
Janet just smiled at me, `` Why John did n't you get laid ? No serious human action ever goes unpunished ! ``
Part 2
.
Over the future, few workweek'life story, for me, was hectic. I was shown how to running the department for really instead of just being a cog in the bicycle. I wished that Janet had chosen someone else for the job, but then after a bit everything just seemed to 'click'into place, and started to run smoothly.
Then I received a missive from Social Service, it appears that on checking their databases I was on the lean that showed I was a hazard to kid by stroke, after looking in to it they have cleared me and they apologized for any inconvenience that this had caused me ( ! )
I was tempted to tell them exactly what it had cost me, my daughter, my life history and nearly my sanity. However, how can you spell that in a letter. .. without it bursting into fire ?
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 anaesthetic police force are informed ; I later found out that he also applied to the sociable Services for restitution caused by their defamation of my figure. Therefore, I was going to be fairly comfortable off.
I did hear from Tania and Janet during that meter, they had returned to America. .. It was strange to take heed from them during my evenings knowing they were just finishing breakfast and getting set up for work or schooling. One part was memorable.
'' I thought about what you said that day at your place. '' Tania told me one day giggling.
'' What was that ? '' I asked. .. well we had discussed various things while she was with me.
'' About going to schoolhouse without dress '' Tania said still giggling, `` Well we 're doing historic people today. .. and I 'm going as lady Go diva ! '' She burst into laughter 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 ride out 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 buck for her to hinge upon ? '' I asked.
'' Oh yes a nice piffling filly, well trained and suitable. '' Janet said also with a swing 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 let taken hold of the phone.
'' Daddy lavatory ! That is not overnice ! I can be good as well ! ''
'' There 's no need to get on your high up knight about it, by the way how high gear is your horse ? '' I asked her my humor coming out
'' It 's just the right size. .. like you ! '' Tania said giggling, `` Why do n't you add up over here to line up out ? ``
'' Tania ! '' I heard Janet saying - although she was laughing away as she said it. `` Apologize to St. John and then hand me the phone ! ``
'' Sorry daddy whoremaster. '' Said Tania, but from the lilt in her articulation, I did not think she meant it.
'' That 's okay missy knee pants. '' I said ( no I did n't require it too seriously either ), and I heard her giggle away as she handed the sound back to Janet.
'' I do n't bed who 's uncollectible, you or her ? '' Janet said
'' She is,"I said while hearing 'he is !'over the phone from Tania. That Night I went to bed with a smile on my cheek and dreaming of being Peeping Tom.
After a month more, everything was running smoothly, we had established a routine of synchronization 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 capable to pull through up to the previous two days.
That was when the bombshell dropped on me. Actually, it dropped on my ex and her husband. I was in their fallout.
The first signal I had was a topical anesthetic new token - 'Police have raided several topical anaesthetic houses today, the reasonableness for this are not yet known, we expect Sir Thomas More information soon'I heard that but took no notice of it.
However, the next day I was disturbed at work. `` I 'm sad sir, but there 's a Mrs. Atchison here who wishes to see you. She does n't have an date '' That was my secretary Eileen.
'' What companionship does she interpret Eileen ? '' I asked - I had a desk total of paper and plans, which I was working on,
'' Err. .. she says she 's from Social Services, and it 's important. '' Came the reply.
I did not swear well not out loud. Therefore, they were disturbing me here now ! I suppose they were going to say that they had made a fault with the letter and I am still a menace to society ! I looked at the clock ; well at least I will accept plenty of meter to get my solicitor onto their binding when she was finished. `` Alright Eileen, send her in. .. and occur in as well, I may want you to take notes. '' Eileen was quite a dissipated speed-writer.
Mrs. Atchison entered the way ; 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. archer, I 'm not sure how to border on this. '' Mrs. Atchison started ; there was an dialect in her voice, a slightly conversant accent.
'' Well if it to grant an excuse then I 'm afraid that my canvasser is already taking stair against your department, I must admit I did n't anticipate anyone to appear in order to pee-pee me check. .. '' I was saying, but then the look on her face made me check. `` But. .. that 's not why you 're here, is it ? '' I finished by saying.
She looked back at Eileen and then shook her point. `` I 'm afraid I 'm new to this area, I understand there is a problem between yourself and our part 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 euphony played itself in my head, `` I keep on thought of her day and Nox. .. ``
'' Pardon '' Mrs. Atchison said I had not realized that I had spoken aloud.
'' I 'm dark Mrs. Atchison, just something that came to me, I do n't know 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 severalize me. '' I said without explaining.
'' It concerns your girl, err. .. Wendy. '' She said and paused.
'' She 's with her female parent who took her to experience with her boyfriend ; I 'm not allowed to see her. '' I said flatly.
'' Yes, well there is a problem at the moment, as her only congeneric we need to screw if you 'll swallow the responsibleness of looking after her. '' I must admit that my first answer was 'huh ?'Mrs Atchison repeated herself.
'' I did listen what you said but I do n't understand. Why ca n't her mother feel after her ? '' I said, not knowing why I was delaying, this was my daughter, the one I had taken from me. I should suffer 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 congeneric on your ex-wife 's side, but none of them wanted to accept her. ``
I shook my head, `` No, they did n't like her either, for the maiden reason she marrying me, and then for leaving me. '' I explained her family, like her, was unknown to the extreme ! `` But I will shoot Wendy ; I 'm surprised that your section bothered to ask me. '' I said.
'' I must accommodate that the meeting was interesting. '' Mrs. Atchison admitted, `` But the honcho said that we had to ask you. ''
'' And you were the one given the short stalk. '' I said making her smiling,
'' Yes, I must admit that you do n't appear to be the someone I 've read about in the files. '' She said and then colored up, `` I 'm sorry, I should n't birth said that. '' She looked back pointedly at Eileen who was still writing away furiously.
I took the hint. `` I think that 's all I need Eileen, you would n't take care getting some tea for Mrs. Atchison and myself would you ? '' I asked her.
She looked up and smiled, `` Certainly Mr. Archer, milk and loot ? '' She asked Mrs. Atchison.
'' Milk River and two lure please, Miss. .. ''
'' Call me Eileen, I 'll be some mo. '' Eileen said.
'' forebode me Martha please Eileen. '' Mrs. Atchison, Martha, said.
Eileen smiled and left the way, Martha turned back to me, `` I have to tell you Mr. Archer that I 'm an substitution private detective, my old part was in a township in America, you may have heard of it. .. it 's called. .. ``
'' Funiculaireville ? '' I said smiling - yes, I knew that accent was familiar. `` How 's Janet ? ``
'' You 're spry. I 'm sorry to say that I do n't personally roll in the hay Mrs. 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 storey about Wendy ? '' I asked her.
'' There are some preindication of ill-treatment, it 's mainly genial but there is a degree of forcible abuse as well. '' She said watching me closely.
Anger flowed through me, and showed on my face, `` How badly has she been abused ? '' I asked.
Martha shook her head, `` I 'm not certain, she does n't want to talk about it, we 've have medical examination people examine her but she 's be beaten, there is evidence of anal penetration but she still has her virginal membrane, for the animation of me I do n't know why. '' I knew I was shocked at her frankness but my centre went out to Wendy. ``
'' Where is she at the second ? '' I asked Martha.
'' She 's at the infirmary still ; we did n't let anywhere to direct her for the short-change prison term. If you wish to see her I can take you there now. '' She told me, just then, Eileen entered the room carrying two cup, I was half tempted to dribble 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 ecstasy and Sam in here please. '' I asked my secretary she nodded and went to the outer office.
Within minutes both Adam and Samantha Gerard Manley Hopkins had arrived, Eileen sent them straight in, `` I 'm sorry to do this to you both but I 've got a personal problem that 's just arisen, I need you both to handle for me. '' I said. They both agreed that they would avail me without questioning. I showed them the job I had been working on, the direction I was thinking about going, and they left discussing it.
I then dialed Clive Mortimer, `` Hi Robert Clive, I 'm going to take some sentence off I have a fellowship emergency to deal with. ``
'' No way ! We have got too often on our plate at the moment to let you just swing everything. You ca n't go. '' Clive said.
'' I 'm sorry you feel that way Clive, I had hoped that what I 've done had helped the company, but now I need to. .. '' But Clive interrupted me.
'' Look Johnny the solvent 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 jacket crown. As we left my berth I called to Eileen, `` If Robert Clive calls you do n't know where I am and you do n't know 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 troubles ? '' She asked.
'' fountainhead 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 daughter comes first. She needs me more than the party does, other people can do my job here, but only I can help my girl. '' I told her.
She nodded and smiled, `` That 's what I was lead to believe, and do you expect any difficulty when we get to reception ? ``
I thought for a instant. If Clive was the complete illegitimate child that I thought he might be then I could carry our burly surety people would try to barricade me. I pressed the back story button. `` It could be that we 'll call for to use the fire leakage instead of the front room access, do you receive a car Handy. '' I asked her
'' Yes, it 's in the spinal column parking lot. '' She said.
I felt like it was a boob tube show as Martha and I broke the plastic restraining clip on the flaming doors, hearing the alarm sound as we ran down the metal fire escape cock and then to the car park, jumping into her car and screeching off with security safety running behind us. We both laughed as we turned onto the main road.
'' This is existing ! cypher told me that sociable overhaul could be so shake up. '' Martha said as we turned into the Hospital parking area.
I smiled ruefully, `` I think I 've just resigned from my job. '' I said.
'' Oh I do n't mean we can countenance that, I 'll see what I can do. '' Martha confided to me and escorted me to the pediatric wards.
We arrived at the nanny 's desk and Martha introduced me as Wendy 's Father-God, the nurse looked up surprised. `` I 'm sorry who did you say you were ? '' She asked, when Martha persisted the nurse directed us to a side-room.
We entered the room to obtain it was void, and then the baby in burster of the ward entered. Martha spoke up, `` What 's amiss, I 've identified myself and this valet, why have n't we been taken to Wendy ? '' She asked.
I spoke up, `` Is there something awry with my daughter ? '' The babe looked at me as if surprise I could speak.
'' Not with your daughter as such, but with her knowledge of you. '' She stated flatly.
'' If it 's the rumour that I 'm some type of pervert then I have to tell you. .. '' I started but the Sister 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 impression that you 're dead ! '' I looked at her unfold mouthed.
'' I can see you that I 'm perfectly healthy, now why does Wendy think this ? '' I asked her.
The Sister shook her head, `` I do n't roll in the hay, but when we told her that her don 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 papa is dead !''' The babe replied.
Martha took control. `` 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 offspring girl into the elbow room and sat beside her, Martha smiled at Wendy, `` Hello again Wendy, do you recall 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 side, she was biting her lower lip as if trying to construct up her mind.
'' You look like my daddy did. '' She said softly.
'' I am your daddy Wendy. '' I said, also quietly but she shook her head.
'' You ca n't be ! mamma told me that daddy was dead a retentive time ago. '' She said in a critical tone.
'' But your mummy and I broke up several years ago. ``
'' No, mommy 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 tone to that endure piece.
'' It was n't like that Wendy, but at the instant I 'm for sure you would n't believe that. '' I said, not forcibly I did not want to disconcert her.
She shook her head a sat down on a chair, not looking at anyone. I gave a worried glimpse at Martha who just shook her head slightly.
'' But. .. but why would mummy ? But mummy said. .. dad. .. daddy ? '' 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 long, 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 last out 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 seat and approached my daughter, I went down onto my knees so that my school principal was raze with hers and I looked into her oculus. `` Wendy I promise you that while I live you will not have to allow for me, unless you wish to. '' I said to her, while crossing my heart with a digit - something I had jokingly done when she had been with me.
She watched my hand rather than my case and then she smiled, `` pop ! '' she said and threw her arms around my neck. Martha, who had been watching both of us, nodded her head.
'' I 'm fulfill that Wendy has accepted her beginner and will loose her into his attention. '' She said formally, if you would n't mind bringing Wendy 's clothes and I 'll have a parole with the Sister in complaint. '' Martha said taking the nurse out of the way leaving me with my daughter .
