Hyde walked into the living room, seeing Jekyll as white as a ghost. He walked over slowly to him like a hunter walking up to an animal.
" Baby, what's wrong?" he asked gently
Jekyll gave Hyde a letter that he had just received
Dear Dr. Henry Jekyll,
I regret to inform you that I am resining services from your work... it is with both a heavy heart and a joyful one that I write this letter for I have found love. I shall miss you and Master Hyde very deeply and wish the best for you,
Poole
Tears formed in Hyde's eyes " Poole's resignation..." he whispered
Jekyll nodded then he put his head in his hands and bawled. Hyde fell to the floor, but quickly scooted over to Jekyll and crawled into his lap.
" It's ok, superstud.." hyde whispered
" No, it's not." Jekyll whispered
" I- I can't handle this! And what about dusk or Angelina or red how will we tell them?" Jekyll yelled
" Ssssh everything will be okay." hyde soothed as he rubbed Jekyll's head lightly.
" I don't know how...  How I can live without Poole, he's always been there." Jekyll confessed
" We can make it...." Hyde said
"Yeah... now to tell the kids."
" Well... let's wait until tomorrow."
Jekyll nodded " Yeah, tomorrow."
The next day...
Hyde woke up to see a shivering Jekyll beside him.
He covered Jekyll up and quietly left the bed and got dressed before going downstairs, he went into the kitchen where maids, cooks, and servants were running around everywhere.
" Everyone in a straight line in the foyer!" He declared
Everyone stopped and got in a straight line and walked past Hyde with their heads bowed " Good morning, Master Hyde." Most of them said as they walked past then Hyde followed them out and got in front of them " Maids, Servants, and cooks of my husband, Henry Jekyll, I have some very important news to tell you all."
All the servants looked up at Hyde with a level of respect.
" Mr. Poole has unfortunately resigned from his services here."
Most of the maids gasped and the cooks looked down sadly.
"For now, I will be taking over his services. I will help you as much as I can, but I need to learn about you guys. So... I want the woman in organization by cook and maid here and the men in organization by cook and servant so four lines women on the left, men on the right."
Everyone scrambled to their different locations.
He then went through every single person and learned about them. Some he knew, some he didn't but he got done after a while then they all turned their heads to see dr. Jekyll come down the stairs
" Good morning, Everyone." He greeted as he rubbed his sleepy eyes
"Good morning, Master Jekyll." They all replied
The workers all stood waiting for Hyde's next order
"Oh! why didn't you people say anything? Dismissed..." hyde said as he saw the workers
All the workers laughed and then They then all scrambled to their usual cleaning.
Hyde waited for Jekyll and Jekyll threw his arms over him from the back
" Good morning, my love."
" Good morning, Hyde. Why did you wake up so early?"
" oh don't worry about it, just wanted to get to know the workers."
Jekyll nodded and kissed him. " I love you."
" Love you too."
