In the house for two days was like living with a ghost. Each of lives not wanting to interact with each other, even with close proximity than if by unforseen coincident I walk down to the kitchen about to have brunch to see that Jackson is there. He had this look on his face that is staring long and far, into another world while replaying a problem over and over again. It when the heavy thud of hitting the bottom of the floor stir Jackson out of his musing.
"Oh Toby good morning, did you want coffee?" Jackson turn around and emptying the stove top ground.
Locking the feeling of anger into the basement of the back of my head I agreed to the coffee. As Jackson proceeded to continue with filling the pot, the silences continue on growing. It is the clicking of the stove that it brought me back to the moment.
"Do you have any plans today Toby?" It said so casually that the desire to fight is tempting. But only having to continue to live with this man for another month before I can make the move to a temporary accommodation, with any possible action that comes off wrong will denims any chance. It however has become complex with this new condition as many people do not want to have a Frankenstein
So I answer his question "Going to visit a friend, hang out, be back home around seven."
He nods as every word is calculated. Handing over the fresh coffee and turns to pour another fresh coffee into his cup "Well when you come home I want to talk to you about if we move to Ark village maybe help monitor some frogs."
This threw the plans out. Volunteering with Ark for a short time would give me an advantage into finding a job there. On the other hand I am still with Jackson. The spins move with sharp flicks. Looking up Toby for the present glad that Jackson could not interpret the spin movements and that his face can be describe as a Halloween mask. The door bell rang. Jackson got up and moved to the front door. Toby can hear voices. Trying to lean back only to feel the stool tip into an over balances. Forcing Toby to lean forward missing some of what been said. The steps can be distinguish from Jackson sure headed, hard smack walk. Two other walks were defined with one being even pace and the other more cautious.
Behind Jackson are two men one being tall with greying hair. The other man is a dark pigment with vivid blue eyes.
Voice scratchy came from the tall man "I am B. Robertson and this is Smith were from the Kolly Real sate. We would like to talk to you about purchase under Diamond Anderson deposit."
I nodded "Ms Anderson had be diploid three weeks ago it be two more weeks until any contact."
Robertson stood nodding before humming "Is possible we could just talk to you alone."
Jackson pipes up "He needs to have a guardian present in the room."
Smith eyes widen at that and open his mouth to speak only to close it again. Robertson who was more experiences rub his chin "Mr Anderson" he gives a light smile "What Guidance Ruling is Master Anderson is under."
Jackson cross his arms and brought his height up even though smaller than the other men in the house. "Guidance Ruling two" Jackson said.
"Are you apart of the move from the City to Toolabar?" Asked Robertson his face natural, though his tone heavy with knowledge.
Jackson kept quiet "Master Anderson is Mr Anderson part of this move?"
"No."
"Then can we please have some privacy Mr Anderson." Robertson turning back to Jackson.
"I'll be in my office if you need me Toby." Said Jackson, there is a moment of pause, hearing the feet going up stairs; we waited to hear the door close with click.
