NO REGRETS

13

The cleaning was done before everyone took a break to eat lunch. We finally finished around 4 and I thanked the 20 people who showed up. 

Maura I  am going to go check on the other two nurses who got hurt. Thanks Mario.  We are a team and strong one. Indeed we are. Please bill for your time this time. I am not taking no this time. Okay. I will. Thank you.  Julie employees are here to clean. Just ask them to clean the bsthrooms,  reception areas, break rooms,offices anf dump the garbages. Please let them know everything else has been cleaned. Thanks Anastacia. Your welcome. Auntie where do you want the extra cleaning supplies at? Olivia and Julian please leave them in the janitorial closet on the first floor by the kids area. We will.  Maura the extra paint and supplies? Hmmm give me a minute Parker . Parker please come with me. Valerie, Christina and  Beth let's follow Maura. 

We went to the storage room on the second floor away not in the same room as the janitorial. A room I knew wouldn't get into trouble when they unannounced and announced inspections by osha and other agencies.  Everyone was leaving except merry maid.  I told the supervisor I was locking up and the doors would be alarmed only. She said she would tell the others and they would set the alarm for the entire building when they were done. She was glad I didn't get shot or stabbed.  I thanked her. Jane and I left after 5:12. Babe Pierce called for us to go have dinner with them.  He is worried and wants to see you in person. I am tired but since it's him okay. 

Jane drives us to Calder's home.

Pierce comes outside when Vivica tells him its us when she answers the door.  He runs past her and hugs Maura not letting go.

I'm so glad your here in one piece and alive. I was scared for you when we heard on the news a doctor got shot.  Dad called to find out who it was.  Oh sweetheart I am okay.

Pierce looks Maura up and down and continues hugging her and won't let her go.

Pierce let them on. Sorry Ms. Vivica.  Everyone is outside. He hears the door bell and rang.

Pierce finally let Maura go and we were able to come in.

Hi Mrs.  Jane. Hi buddy .We are sorry for not visiting as much. It's okay I know you two been busy. We will go bowling tonight if you like as long as your dad says it's okay sweetheart.

Calder and Lana come inside.  They say hello and we say thank you for inviting us over for dinner.

Dad Dr..Isles invites me to go the movies after dinner please let me go. I got all my school work done. Calder he can spend the night too.  Dad please. Okay! I better go pack you a bag.

Vivica leaves to pack his bag.  Pierce is holding Maura's hand and we go to the living room area and sit while Calder leaves to bring in the food they  barbecued.

Lana sits in the sols one person chair. The three of sit on the couch with Pierce on my wife's lap.  The love this boy has for us is special.

Okay your bag is packed and is by the front door. Thank you Mrs.  Vivica. Your welcome. Let's go eat.

We head to the dining room.

Vivica,  Lana and Calder bring out the food and place settings. We serve ourselves..Lana serves Pierce his food.

There is ice tea for everyone to drink with the dinner that Lana made.

Lana pours us all ice  teas and its passed to each one of us.

Pierce wanted bbq chicken , hot links,  macaroni salad and corn on the cob for dinner.  Yeah the menu was made especially for you two.  I know you like Mrs. Vivica's macaroni salad Mrs.  Jane. Yes I do and thank you for calling us to invite us over for dinner.  We are sorry we didn't make it to the painting and cleaning today.  We were all working om something.  It's okay Calder. Maura had people show up. Its ready for the clinic to be opened opened on Monday.

None of us mentioned the incident at the clinic.  Maura and I  did not want to scare Pierce more than he had been. We updated one another on each other's life and enjoyed the meal. We all helped with the cleaning and we said our goodbyes.

Maura and Jane his vitamins,  probiotic and colloidal silver for him to drink is in the bag. There is enough of cs for tonight only.  Okay Vivica thank you. We will have him back here by eleven. Thanks Maura.  Your welcome.  Son you be good. Make sure you are in bed by ten . Yes daddy.

Pierce gives all three of the hug and tells them he loves them. We say thank you for dinner.  Pierce picked ups his own bag and they walk us out to the truck. We wave goodbye as we are leaving the driveway and they wave back.

Pierce what movie would you like to go see? Avator one. I wanted to see the black panther but it's too late Dr. Isles. Sweetheart please call me Maura. OKAY Mrs. Maura.

Jane drives us to greenback theater.  The movie starts at 8:35. We get out of the truck after we have Pierce take his pills with the last of the cs. I throw the bottle away in the trash can in the parking lot. Pierce holds my other hand even though he is old enough not too. Jane pays for one child's ticket and 2 adults.  Jane hands the employee our tickets and she gives a portion of then back to her and tells us to enjoy the movie. We go use the restroom first.  Pierce knows to yell, scream and pull his deterrent key chain if someone is trying to hurt him or bother him. It's 130db we would hear it when Jane waits for him.

We all get in line and order a bucket of popcorn  and three sodas to take inside with us.  Maura pays and we wait for the popcorn.  We all get our cups from Maura and put ice and soda in them.  We get lids and place them on top. We get our straws and poke it through the lid. Jane gets enough napkins and we go to the movie.

Pierce sits in between us. We place our drinks in the holder and Pierce holds the popcorn on his lap.  Jane gives each of us napkins. The movie advertisements comes on.

We eat, drink and watch the movie in its entirety.  We get up to use the restroom again.

Thank you. I enjoyed it. Your welcome. Your are very welcome. 

We leave and get in Jane's truck and put on our seat belts. Jane drives us home.  On the way their,  Pierce falls asleep .
