Chapter 27 - TORREN RECALLS SHAWNEY WORDS

When Carl said, Jeff, the way Travis was glaring at her, he didn't care if Candis sees him or not. She had to ask Torren for his shirt to cover herself.

It was disgusting, and Jeff this is what I see, so when no one is around him, just imagine what racket he must be involved in.

I am faithful to my wife, you may be, but my brother, Travis is no saint, I disagree then and I disagree now."

"Okay, you two, I have heard enough, Whatever happens, earlier when the two of them went jogging, as he said.

I believe it was a blessing in disguise, so no prompting they are coming." Seeing Torren stood by her door and was about to knock when the door open.

'I just hope to God whatever said about her she doesn't hear, because I know she will leave immediately so kindly change the topic, Carl, how is Careen doing?"

"She will be down to join us for lunch, Dad."

"Shouldn't you be helping her?"

"Dad, you don't know women, she insisted I leave so I just leave her alone. She will be fine and earlier, she was having a bit of discomfort, I only hope when Torren sees her, he doesn't act up?"

Looking at them descend the stairs then said, "If he does, Shawney will help him, I know she will." Train said in just a whisper.

"Am I seeing right? Torren had matched his clothes with the dress he gave Shawney?" Carl whispers,

"I can see that and my goodness they look like the perfect couple." Train whispers only for Carl ears.

"Dad the way you sound, I know you trust her, I only hope it doesn't backfire on you," Jeff responded.

How did he hear that I know he always have something to say ."Jeff, I have seen her when the Wilson meet us by the restaurant, she was able to keep him calm."

"But Dad, he had a bad night?"

"Yes, I agree that he did, but that was not due to the Wilsons, yes they cause him to become angry and in his silent mode.

His bad night was because I blame him for ignoring Shawney, and he was blaming himself. for that."

When Carl stood up, "Let us sit at the table." Unable to control himself, Jeff turn and said, "I can't believe it, big brother."

"What can't you believe Jeff?"

"You look amazing." Watching him smile then look at Shawney when he said, "Thank you, I feel amazing Jeff."

About to sit Carl sees Caren walk toward Torren, 'She had always liked him.' "Torren, you look handsome," giving him a hug.

"Thank you Careen, and am I seeing, right?"

"Yes, you are."

When Shawney asks, "Were you having problems with the baby earlier today?"

"Why do you ask Shawney?"

"I was just wondering that's all."

All taking their seat as Torren look at Shawney, Recalling that she wanted to know if there were another baby in the house.

She had said she heard a baby crying, that was why she ran out of the house. 'Dear God, did she felt the baby presence?

Her faith is strong, and God does speak to her, and she knows His voice. Oh, if only I could know and understand when You are speaking.

Lord, there are so many different voices in my head sometimes. How will I recognize Yours, when I have so much trouble hearing Shawney voice.

Especially with all the other voices covering up her fine voice.'

Train lifts his head wanting to know what made the sound on the table, observing as though Shawney was lost in her own thoughts.

She has not touched her food. Seeing Torren was crying and his spoon that had made the sound when it fell on the plate and scattered the food.

Shawney looking up seeing him in tears, reaching out taking his hand, and kiss it. "Don't you like the food, Torren?

Come I will fix you something to eat," when he remains silent and she said, "Okay, be like that, this time when I leave, I won't be returning?"

Unable to believe how quickly he reacted, grabbing hold of her hand, fighting to regain control.

All those that were at the table notice her in tears when Carl goes to hold his hand, Shawney stopped him. Hearing Carl says in a whisper, "He is hurting you Shawney."

"I know, but he is hurting more."

They had all stop eating, "Please continue with your meals" Train observe how she was gently stroking his hand just like when we had met the Wilsons.

Noticing her exhale as she closes her eyes, then with her both hands she took his "You are going to be fine, now come on finish eating then we will go for a walk."

Carl thought, 'As he recalled yesterday when Torren was so full of rage scattering her belongings she wasn't angry.

All she was doing was praying for him, and now even though he was hurting her she seems to understand how he was feeling.

How is that possible?' Noticing how quickly he released her hand and his anger simmer down.

"Shawney, Torren is not a child." Jeff snapped.

"That's it, I am fed up with your stupidity, when you regain your sight, and some common sense, you could come for me." Lasandra snapped at Jeff.

"Where are you going?" Jeff asks.

"To my mother's." But Torren holds her hand, "Let me go Torren, I am tired of him saying things about you."

"It's all right, if you go then who will defend me?"

"Okay, for you I will stay, but next time I will burst his mouth."

"You could do that," Torren replies.

Carl laughs, "I will help you Lasandra."

When Liz came with the children, "Ma'am do you mind."

"Come honey, you are being a very naughty girl, it all right Liz, you go ahead and have your lunch I will feed them."

"Dad, didn't I see Candis came down for lunch, where is she?" Torren asks.

"I don't know son, they seem to have disappeared."

"Daddy, Aunty is in the kitchen eating."

Train notice Torren stroke Tray hand, "Thank you, Son."

Lasandra and Careen who was sitting at both sides of Train, touching his hand, "Dad, I know how you feel."
