My Love, Enlighten me

Tina Clarke showed great curiosity toward Gloria Taylor’s words, “Smoke and feel full?”

She knew what smoking meant, but she was surprise that smoking could make one be full.

Gloria Taylor smiled, “This is your father’s special skill. You just need to know that your father is full.”

Tina Clarke nodded clumsily.

When Gloria Taylor and Tina Clarke came back from dinner, the room was unusually quiet.

Gloria Taylor turned on the lights, looked around, and set her eyes on Kenny Clarke’s door.

She didn’t have to push the door open to know that Kenny Clarke wasn’t there. She knew it because she didn’t smell his scent around.

She couldn’t tell what feeling it was, but she could feel it as soon as she entered the door whether Kenny Clarke was there or not.

Right after she was inside, her eyes paid special attention to his door.

The ashes and the cigarette butts were gone. She was surprised to know that Kenny Clarke actually cleaned them up.

She imagined Kenny Clarke swept the floor with a broom.

She had never seen him doing it. It happened only in her imagination.

But, Tina Clarke ran to push his door opened as soon as she was inside, “Dad?”

She tried to open the door a few times, no one responded to her. She casted a puzzled look at Gloria Taylor, “Mom, Dad won’t open the door.”

The little girl thought that Kenny Clarke was in the room.

“He’s probably asleep.” Gloria Taylor walked over and took her to the bathroom, “You have to go to bed early.”

It was getting late. Tina Clarke looked sleepy when she was eating.

When Gloria Taylor bathed her, Tina Clarke dozed off like a little chicken.

After tucking her to sleep, Gloria Taylor closed the door and came out. She took her phone and search his number in the phonebook. Her finger hesitated for a while, but finally she didn’t dial his number.

It was clearly his fault. Why would she reach out first?

Even if she reached out and made up with him first, the problem between them would still remain unsolved.

She didn’t know what Kenny Clarke was thinking.
