Angeline could not wait any longer and was dying to know Baby Robbie’s news. She said, "Why don't you head to S Country, Jaybie? And come back before Sis Shirley is discharged. I think after she's well, Josie and Zayne will be announcing their good news."
Jay replied, "It's all up to you."
Angeline responded, "Then, go ahead and prepare your bags for departure."
Jay groaned at her. "Are you dying to send me away?"
Angeline smiled. "I'll reward you once you've returned."
"What kind of rewards?" Jay asked expectantly.
Angeline answered, "I'll give myself to you, okay?"
Jay placed his big hands on her waist. "That'll depend on your condition, no? After I leave, you'll have to keep a positive frame of mind, eat and drink well every single day, and you'll have to get lots of sleep. Alright?"
"I know, I know."
Jay was anxious about Josephine taking care of Angeline. That night, he called Josephine over for practice in advance.
Jay had written and sorted out his notes about
Angeline's living habits and handed them over to Josephine. Then, he ordered, "Memorize them by tonight and recite them to me before I leave tomorrow morning."
Josephine looked at the thick pile of notes and ridiculed silently. "Brother, it looks like it's all ready for publication?"
Jay gave her a death stare and Josphine quickly explained, "It’s useless for you to glare at me. If you want me to memorize all of these in one night, I'm afraid I just can't do it."
Jay proceeded to knead his eyebrows. "I've printed out her three meals for each day in tabular form."
