After the test, they received information that the result would be out in two weeks before they left. Cainan drove her back to her residence, but neither of them made haste to get down from the car.
"You should rest and we will get another time to find you the apartment." He finally spoke again.
She flashed him a small smile. "I will do that, thanks. I just hope you can still meet with your friend and whatever is happening isn't something bad."
His eyes flickered, and he shook his head, "You're welcome and hopefully it isn't."
"Good." she opened the door and got down. She closed the door and leaned on the window. "Thanks for these," she said, pointing to the glasses she had on. "They have helped reduce the little headaches I thought were normal before and I see much better now so I will try to hate them less than I do." it was the closest she was going to get to a proper appreciation.
“I'm glad to hear that.” He reached for his drawer before her and, pulling it open, he brought the contract document out and handed it to her.
"This is your copy of the contract, keep it safe."
She nodded and collected it from her before getting down from the car. "I will do that."
"Take care of yourself, Ms Whyte," he said before turning on the car and driving off.
There was something about him calling her Ms Whyte that made her tingle on the inside.
A knock came on her door and she got up from the couch where she was watching The Last Kingdom and to the door before opening it up. She didn't wonder who it was as she automatically thought it was Cainan, but she became surprised that it wasn't and rather, it was Anita. She was wearing a purple long woollen coat that reached her knee and there was a black medium handbag in her hand.
She held a look of concern on her face and Jasmin was for a moment confused why that was; she widened the door and stepped aside and Anita entered further into the room.
"How are you?" She asked, her eyes not wavering a bit from Jasmin's.
A little lost, Jasmin said the only reply she had in her head, "I'm fine, better and you."
She stepped further into the room. "George would have come, but work happened as always. I came as soon as I could. And I'm so glad you feel better. I bought you porridge yam." she reached into her handbag and brought out a stainless food flask before handing it over to her.
Jasmin couldn't help the smile that came onto her face. She didn't know how she ended up being so lucky to have someone like Anita in her life as a friend, but she knew she hadn't cherished her as much as she should. She walked over to her and threw her arms around her, hugging her tightly and not letting go for the first minute that passed by. Though she was hungry and unlike yesterday; she wasn't sure Cainan was going to come around tonight and she knew she didn't want to eat what she had but confused what she really wanted. Her friend seemed to have heard her silent cry for food and brought one over.
