You need to know more

I do hope you have a ice cup of tea or coffee in your hand, do have a biscuit as well, i simply can't bear to tell the story without knowing your comfort, Either way you should already know who i am, if not it's me miss bell, you know they lady who saw with my very own eye saw Nevoid with a book.

I haven't found the book, getting inside that house is rather a bigger challenge than i predicted. That mother of hers is always in the sunroom, punching away on that typewriter, it really makes me wonder what she's writing about, but all thanks to a red-haired man i might see where the book is. First of all i had better explain myself.

Such a serous man that one, he wants what he wants and nothing bothers him, well i think that cookie i made did, he seemed bothered about if he should eat it or throw it, he would rise it to mouth then place it back on the saucer, bad taste in food that man.

When i ran into him down on the path to town yesterday well his face was the same color as his hair red.

I did bravely ask him what the matter was.

Now remember a lady must always shut up when a man is in mood other than happy, of course i felt it was my place to ask him, we were walking on the same road and now we had endure each others moods, not that mine was as troublesome as his.

‘’ A gentleman dose not bother strangers with their personal dissatisfaction its rude, just because we are near each other you dont need to know everything!

Now i was cleaver and said that i would help him feel better over some cake and tea in the sunroom i assured him there would be no wedding, it was polite to soothe his trouble.

‘’ Fine, what is your name?

‘’ Miss bell, sir, i am feeling so much empathy for your sorrow and the day would end so much better knowing i gave you something to smile about, i cook the best cake and cookie’’

‘’ Lead the way then, my hunger is setting in’’

He sat like a tree trunk stiff and straight, no bend in his back he placed his hands in his lap and looked stern out the window.

I could feel his anger boiling like the kettle on the stove; he was going to explode. So, i brought out some whiskey, a nice 30 year one, it was my fathers and only did he drink it when his temper was getting out of hand. Mother loved that bottle more him. Now don't get the wrong the idea about him he was just a harsh talker in a bad mood yet after a sip he would tell mother of the trouble, and all was well.

‘’ Lovley, i would like some of that whiskey first before the other thankyou darling’’

The words slipped out of his mouth like jelly in cup, i poured the pain releasing drink and he threw it back like a child eating cake. So good to see.

‘’ You know a man so well, you must make the best housewife for your husband’’

I was so pleased to hear that, i was getting more and more to like him, that is when i asked him what had happened, but the front door was now occupied by a knock.

I opened it and in seconds why didn't I pretend to not have heard it.

‘’ Keep your duck in your perimeter, my yard is not yours and not the ducks either, i have poo on the step i stepped in it my shoe is now a germ of animal feces and that is un lady like! Take her now!

I had a duck thrown into my arms and a brat standing in the doorway, this is unlike anyone from my generation but i didn't know who to slap first then again i should thank my duck Betty, for making Nevoid step in poo a description of herself, i should behave now, I'm getting on with tale back to my red haired guest.

‘’ You seem very popular, yet she spoke in a brat voice, why are you letting her, put it this way what you let her do and what you do is a very different thing, you can deal with her in ways that can cut off her disrespectful tone, just by slamming the door in her face without letting her speak, only open it when she opens her mouth with correctly spoken words that respect the adult.

‘’ As for that child she sounds like the idiotic child who refused to pronounce her words correctly outside the book store or even use the right word, she told me howdy not good day then she said move not pardon me, my irritation was at the end when she said i will become the president of America a girl being responsible for respectable men, the mess she would make and how many women would decide that they want to leave the house and take over what we men can only do, the shindy outside the white house!

‘’ What came out of that man mouth was as shocking as if i had walked outside to find a platypus sitting on my deck chair, president of America the audacity of that child, what would she do make everyone pay her because she in exitance, that child has to be put in a box and pushed into the sea.

Maybe that goes to far. Either way this tea party was going well, i might have a friend by the end.
