Don’t woITY
I was so bored. So freaking bored. It isn’t bad during the weekends because Noah is around, but

during weekdays it is unbearable.

Letty and Corrine obviously worked throughout the day. So did my parents. I had hired Mary to

take care of the daily running of The Hope Foundation. Even if I were to go there, there would be

little for me to do except maybe sign documents that needed my approval.

We had become good friends with Calvin over the past week. I learned that he has his own

building and construction company. He started it about two years ago and so far he said it was

doing well. So he also wasn’t available during the day.

I was so bored that I’ve started thinking of going back to work. I was five months along so I still

had time before my due time came. Instead of that, I pick up my phone and dial the number.

“Hey Mrs. Derray, how are you doing?” I ask.

We lived in the same neighborhood and she had called me a few days ago. She had a teenage

daughter in highschool who was failing biology. She had asked me if I could tutor her.

“I’m good dear. I’m happy to hear from you, and how are you?” her voice is cheerful and it brings a

smile to my face.

“I’m good thank you” I pause a little. “I was calling to ask if you’re still interested in my tutor

services”

I hope that she hadn’t found someone else. Even if she had, I still had others who had requested

me to tutor the kids.

“Oh definitely yes. It has been stressing me out and I admit to praying that you would change your

mind”

When she had asked, it had been at the beginning of my leave. I’d turned her down not knowing

how bored I would get just staying at home doing nothing.

“Perfect then. How about after school hours? She can come by my house after school” I tell her

happily.

It’ll be in the afternoon, but I didn’t mind. Maybe I could help with our sex toy business. I couldn’t

be associated with it, but that doesn’t mean I can’t help. While Letty and Corrine focused on their
