" So how are things in the aftermath of the kidnapping yesterday ? ," Angel asked as he was sitting at his too cluttered desk in the clinic working on his lesson plan for sexual education class; it involved bananas, condoms and role play. " I can't believe you all and your really bad luck with..... well , everything in life. It's like someone out there really big hates you. "
DuBuis cast his eyes at Angel in the middle of grading health class quizzes. " It's doing.... well. I mean it almost killed me leaving her this morning to come to work. And Spencer slept in his chair in her room all night. And I think he might be trying to custom order a protective bubble for her. But all in all things are fine. " He paused as he tried to figure out why Zora Mayfield thought hand washing was not essential hygiene practice. He was wondering if Gerald would install hand sanitizer stations around the school. " Besides you and yours aren't exactly immune to life's trauma and drama. How is Lyle by the way? "
Angel sighed. " Driving me crazy ! And it hasn't even been that long. But.... the man..... I love him. Don't get me wrong. I love him. But if I have to listen to him lecture on the proper way to fold socks....... again....... If it's this bad after a few days what is it going to be like after months? Or years. No. No years. I'll kill him first. I'll kill him and bury him with his damn guest towels , the water wasting bastard. "
DuBuis looked up and over at him in consternation." What? "
The door then opened and in came an oddly flustered Alfred who came to a shaky halt in the middle of the office.
DuBuis grew concerned and stood up abruptly. " Alfred, what is it? " Now , his mind silently retorted.
Angel looked forward in curiosity as Alfred miserably sighed and said," It's Gerald. That hideous Mayfield woman saw...... well she saw us kissing and now she's on the warpath."
Angel and DuBuis both said," Warpath? "
" Yes. I am pretty sure she wants him fired. Again. DuBuis , tell Luci we may need another of her revolutions. Or maybe I'll plan my own."
