In My Desperate Time

I want to call him, but I don’t know what I can say to him concerning our relationship. I need time to collect my thoughts.

He sees me too, surprised for two seconds, and then walks towards me.

“Jane, haven’t seen you for a long time.”

He smiles at me but looks very tired.

Actually it’s not a long time, because we saw each other just a few days ago.

“Are you looking for a job here?” I ask him.

Startled for a moment, he immediately shakes his head, “No. I’m recruiting for the school. The school needs new teachers, so I’m asked to post job information here.”

His pretense makes me feel sad.

Maybe he doesn’t want me to worry him or feel guilty so he lies to me. But I already know the truth.

“Your mother has told me that you lost your job.” saying in an upset voice, I look at him with guilt, “I’m sorry. If it’s not for me, you won’t be reduced to such a situation by Frances.”
