Wondering what to do
Calvin just stood there wondering what he would do, he didn’t want to go outside to buy the drinks because of Dorothy.
“Hey babe, you can take my turn” a lady said to him.
It was actually her turn to use the vending machine but she decided to give it to Calvin.
Calvin nodded at her and went ahead to use the machine, after he was done and wanted to leave.
The lady blocked his way, “can I have your number handsome?” She asked.
He looked at the lady and smirked, she would probably be on her feet now if she knew he was Calvin Dennis.
The thing was that Calvin doesn’t appear much in public so some people don’t really recognize him in public.
“Please handsome, your number” the lady said again and came closer to him.
Calvin gave her a deadly stare that made her move back.
She stared at the handsome man and felt cold shivers, “how can someone’s stare be so dangerous?” She thought and ran away from there.
Calvin then went back to where Dorothy was waiting for him, her bag was the only thing present when he came there.
“I told her not to go anywhere,” he muttered.
He saw some group of women surrounding a guy who was carrying a big teddy bear and went there but he couldn’t see her.
Calvin threw the drinks in a nearby trash can and started looking for Dorothy all over the gaming centre.
Meanwhile when Calvin went to get the drinks, Dorothy sat down on a chair there and was scrolling through her phone.
She heard the chattering of children and looked towards the place the chattering was coming from.
A man in mid forties was holding two children who was begging for something and tugging at his trousers.
The man squatted down and patted the children’s hair saying something to them.
The children smiled and hugged him, Dorothy smiled but it faded away when the man looked at her.
“You should just leave her here, it is no use giving her up for adoption” a man said looking at the ten years old Dorothy.
Dorothy closed her eyes as she remembered a memory from her childhood.
“Who is that?” She thought and looked at the man again but he was already walking away with the children and she followed him immediately.
She made sure that he didn’t know that she was following him.
The man reached a big doll house and handed the children to a woman.
He gave her some money and he continued walking.
Dorothy continued following him till he existed through the back door of the building.
Dorothy ran to the door but there was no sign of the man.
“Shit !, I can’t believe I lost him,” she muttered.
“Please sir calm down, what is the problem?” a staff member was saying to Calvin.
“Don’t tell me to calm down when my wife is missing and she better be fine or all of you are dead” Calvin replied.
“Don’t worry sir, our staff are currently looking for her now but please unlock the door” the staff pleaded.
Calvin turned to the entrance door and locked it with another key he was holding making it a total of two keys.
He walked to the staff and stared down at him, “you must think that I am joking” he said to him.
The staff swallowed and looked down at his feet, not meeting his eyes.
“Please !, please !, please” a man yelled coming towards Calvin.
He reached the place and fell on his knees beside Calvin.
“Please Mr Dennis, we are really sorry, we are currently looking for her with our surveillance cameras” the man pleaded.
The staff and the people gasped looking at Calvin, “so that is the famous Calvin Dennis” the crowd murmured.
“Sir please we are terribly sorry” the staff pleaded.
Calvin ran his hand in his hair, he was getting irritated by the apologies they were giving to him.
“Where the hell are your surveillance cameras? !” He snapped.
“Let me take you to it” the man said, getting up from the floor.
He led Calvin to the surveillance room which is showing every part of the building.
“Look everywhere” Calvin ordered the staff that were there and sat down.
“Our staff are very capable, we will find your wife very soon” the man assured.
“But can the door be opened? Some customers want to leave” the man asked.
Calvin looked at him and smiled, “do that and your family will surely miss you” he replied.
“Zoom at the place” Calvin ordered pointing at one of the screens.
One of the staff zoomed in and Calvin saw someone sitting there.
“Where is this?” He asked.
“That is our backyard” the man replied.
Calvin got up from the seat and went out of the room followed by the man.
“Take me to it,” Calvin ordered.
“Yes Mr Dennis” the man said and led Calvin towards the backyard.
“That is it” the man pointed at the door when they reached the place and Calvin ran to it.
He opened it and went in, he went to the place he saw on the screen and saw Dorothy sitting on the floor.
“Doll” he called and went to her.
Dorothy looked up and smiled at him, he pulled her up and embraced her.
“You got me so worried,” he told her.
“I am sorry, I didn’t mean to” she replied.
“It is fine,” Calvin said and kissed her forehead.
“Let’s go” he said, held her hand and they went through the door.
“Thank God you found her sir” the man said as they came out of the door.
They came to the entrance door and Calvin opened it and they went out.
“Boss” Pat said.
He was standing outside the door, trying to enter the building when he saw that no one was entering or coming out of the building.
“We are coming home Pat” Calvin said to him.
They all walked to the car, entered it and drove straight home.
“What happened to your clothes?” Celine asked when Stephanie entered the car.
“That Dorothy poured me her drink,” she replied.
“What did you do to her?” Celine asked.
“Nothing, I was just trying to be friendly,” Stephanie replied.
“Hmm is that so?” She asked.
“Yes and she was so rud…” Celine interrupted her by giving her a dirty slap.
“Stick to why you came here,” she said.
“Yes Miss S, I am so sorry” Stephanie apologized holding her cheek.
“Get me out of here” she said to the driver and he drove off.
“Say ahh” Calvin said to Dorothy.
“No, give me the spoon, I can eat by myself” Dorothy said.
“No, open your mouth, Doll” he insisted.
Dorothy opened her mouth and eat the cereal he was giving her.
“I thought cereal was breakfast food, why are I eating it in the afternoon?” She asked.
“Because that is what you need now so open your mouth” Calvin replied.
“I am so sorry about today, Honey pie” she apologised.
“It is okay but why did you leave the place?” he asked.
“I saw someone I knew back at the orphanage,” she replied.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
“And what did you do?, follow the person?” Calvin asked and she nodded.
“You got me so worried Doll, please don’t do that again” Calvin said.
“I won’t do it again, I promise,” she replied.
“That’s good, now eat” Calvin said and gave her the spoon.
Dorothy collected the spoon from him and started eating.
Celine was eating in the restaurant of her hotel when Fred walked in and sat opposite her.
“What are you doing here Fred?” She asked.
“I am very angry, Miss S” he replied.
“Is that why you are here Fred?, am I an anger expert?” Celine asked.
“Why did you slap Stephanie?” Fred asked.
“She was slacking off on her job,” Celine replied.
“I don’t like the idea of you abusing my people” Fred said.
“Tell Stephanie that if she can’t do the job again, she should just say so” Celine replied.
“She never complained about anything, I saw the marks on her face and started asking her and she told me what you did. I really don’t like that Miss S” he said.
“Is that why you walked in here interrupting me?” Celine asked.
“Is that not enough reason?, if I did that to one of your member will you like that?” Fred asked back.
“You see Fred, why don’t you finish my food for me” Celine said, stood up and walked away.
“We haven’t finished talking” he called at her but she ignored him and continued walking.
“Let me eat her food since she told me to” Fred said and took her food and started eating it.
He called the waiter and asked her to get him another plate of food which she did.
After he was done eating he went to the waiter and gave her some money.
