"Just let it go. And you can let Ted Dulles manage this work." Alan Hoyle told Olive Steele.
"How about I take you as my teacher? Mr. Hoyle." Olive joked.
The wind blew through the branches, and the setting sunset on her body, reflecting her vivid expression at the moment.
Alan could help to laugh, "you little monkey."
His naughty little wife could sweep away his tiredness of the day in a few words.
She was a little tired so they sat on the lawn.
"Darling, when we are old, I want to watch the sunset with you like this."
"Well."
"When I was tired, can you push a wheelchair for me?"
"Sure thing, I will be glad to do it for you."
"We have to live a long, long time."
"Of course."
They were chatting with each other, and suddenly there was an uncertain voice behind them.
"Alan?"
Norton Geve stared at Olive's head," What' wrong with you?"
"It was just a small accident." Olive stood up from the ground, patted the grass on her pants, and made a face at Norton.
"Is it serious?" Norton examined Olive carefully.
"I'm fine. I also can walk, and did not missing arms and legs. I even remember you are my uncle." Olive laughed.
"It seems that you are really fine and even joking with me." Norton was relieved.
"You are always said that being bored in the hospital. So I come to accompany you."
"Accompany me? You'd better go home as soon as possible."
Although Norton was angry on the surface, everyone knew that he was concerned about Olive.
Olive smiled, "you can rest assured that I must recover within three days."
"All right."
"Why you are here alone? Where's aunt?" Olive asked.
"She just called and said she had made food for me. She should be here now."
Speak of the devil.
Norton was used to eating with his wife, even in the hospital. Lory Ted went toward them with a big lunch box. And she was also shocked to meet Olive in the hospital. Then she relieved after knowing Olive was not serious. And she asked Olive and Alan, "Have you had dinner yet?"
"Nope, we can eat together."
Alan certainly agreed.
After they left, a man and a woman stood where they had just stood.
The woman said, "If you don't fight for it, that woman becomes a family with your parents. And you have nothing."
It was also very rich to put the dishes on the table after being heated in the microwave oven.
Norton was in high spirits. "I haven't had such a lively meal for a long time. I've had a big appetite."
"Then you can eat a little more. You don't eat much at noon." Lori scooped him a bowl of soup.
"You should eat more, too." Alan brought vegetables to Olive.
After dinner, they played bridge with Norton until more than ten.
Olive always lost. Alan laughed that she was a stupid girl.
It was enough to have a smart husband. But the smart husband didn't always win.
When she returned to her ward, she swung her right arm. "Fortunately, it was not this hand that was hurt. Otherwise, I had to learn how to hold chopsticks with my left hand."
"That doesn't matter. I feed you every day."
"It's nice to have you, dear." She leaned into his arms.
