"Thank you for taking Theodore in, I'll be by a little later on to check-in,"
After that the call ended. Maxence fished out from his pocket a red knitted piece of a scarf, he stroked it with his fingers before placing it back into his pocket. It was inevitable that time was coming to an end for him and Randolph.
After driving through the rain Maxence reached the house where Randolph resides in. Parking the car in a free spot Maxence darted up the stairs and took shelter under the veranda's stoop, he had some important news to tell Randolph it meant that their time could be coming to a close. Maxence reached towards the door and knocked.
The door opened and much to Maxence's disappointment it was Mandy, Randolph's wife. Noticing her appearance she had put on some makeup and was dressed in blouse, dress pants and some plain heels. Her blonde straight hair caressed her heart-shaped face.
Judging by her tiredness in her eyes it was clear she seemed very perturbed as she gestured Maxence's inside.
"I came as soon as I could, the weather out there was pretty bad,"
Max said apologetically to her as she closed the door behind him. Something was clearly troubling her though, he couldn't but feel there was more to this dinner party than there is and he felt apprehensive.
"I'm glad you could come over for dinner, I just thought it would be nice for us to spend time together,"
Mandy replied, taking Max's damp raincoat off him and hanging it up. Her blue eyes were reddened from crying, having to deal with the fact that her husband's uncertain life expectancy was depleting each day she was fearing the end. The faint scent of food wafted about the house which was comforting for Max, he was feeling hungry and he barely remembered if he had lunch.
"I appreciate the invite, where is your husband? I kind of hope we could discuss something,"
Max followed Mandy through the living area and into the dining area where Randolph sat by himself staring into space. The table was laid out ready and waiting for them to sit down and have their meal.
"I'll be in the kitchen getting the food,"
Mandy droned as she looked at her motionless husband, she was feeling grief, she had a motive for this dinner and it wasn't going to be a pleasant conversation between them at all. Though Max decided to offer to help even though he just wanted to make Mandy feel a little less overburdened with the work.
"You don't need a hand Mandy you look like you could sit down,"
Max smiled weakly he was feeling fatigued from his day, Mandy turned to face him staring into the doctor's green eyes.
"It's fine you sit down, you're the guest here can't ask for you to help me,"
Max decided to comply. He admitted he had a hard time trying to accept Randolph's wife. Mandy tends to have the stubbornness to her much as Randolph has, Maxence still wanted to give the weary woman a hand.
