“See you tomorrow!” Cornelia said, hanging up the phone reluctantly. Then she heard Marcus’ soothing
voice, “You hang up first.
“No, you hang up first.” Cornelia responded.
Marcus went silent for a few seconds before finally hanging up.
It had only been two days, but for some reason, Cornelia felt like it had been ages since she had last
seen Marcus.
So, when she heard he was coming back tomorrow, she was absolutely thrilled, her appetite suddenly
returning for lunch.
Grandpa Augustine was delighted to see her in such high spirits, “What did that lad Marcus say to you?
You’ve been grinning from ear to ear ever since you got off the phone with him.”
“He’s coming back tomorrow.” Cornelia replied.
“So soon?” Grandpa Augustine asked.
“Yeah, it feels like he’s been gone forever.” Cornelia said.
Grandpa Augustine lightly tapped her forehead, “Oh, you silly girl, can’t you play it cool for once? Men
won’t value what they can easily have.”
“Marc is my husband, not just any guy. I want him to know how much I like him, how much I miss him”
Cornelia insisted, believing that a couple should be bold in expressing their love for each other.
“As long as you’re happy Grandpa Augustine conceded, “But what exactly was Marcus doing in France
that he needed to return so soon?”
There was an explosion at our French branch. Many employees were injured or killed. Both of us went
there to handle the aftermath and were so busy we didn’t even make it home for New Year’s. We’re
coming back once everything’s settled, but some people are unhappy with the compensation and
causing trouble” Cornelia explained.
“Does Marcus really need to personally deal with such trivial matters?” Grandpa Augustine asked,
“The compensation might be trivial, but losing a child is not. You’ve known Marcus for a long time, you
know how he is. Cross him, and you’re in for a world of hurt, but he treats those who help him with the
utmost sincerity. Cornelia answered.
Grandpa Augustine nodded in agreement, “That lad Marcus, he’s flawless both in looks and in talent.”
Cornelia, busy chewing on a corn pancake and unable to speak, nodded vigorously. After quickly
swallowing her food, she said. “You’re spot on, Grandpa Augustine. I’ve never met a man more
handsome than Marcus.”
Grandpa Augustine chuckled at her comment, That’s love making you blind. He’s your husband, of
course you think he’s the most handsome.”
“So, I can’t state the obvious?” Cornelia retorted.
Grandpa Augustine laughed heartily, “Of course, you can.”
“He’s the best man in the world.” Cornelia declared.
“We’ll see.” Grandpa Augustine replied, “I watched Marcus grow up. He had a tough childhood, which
made him quite reserved. He’s a good businessman, but I worry he might not make a good husband. I
fear he might not treat you well.”
“He won’t do that.” Cornelia assured him.
“If he treats you well, that’s great. If he doesn’t, as your grandfather, I’ll make sure he answers for it.
Nelly, remember you’re my granddaughter No one can bully you’ Grandpa Augustine said.
Marcus had told her similar things before. They were the ones closest to her.
“I know.” Cornelia said.
“Let’s eat.” Grandpa Augustine said softly, patting Cornelia’s head.
After lunch, Cornelia spent the afternoon playing chess with Grandpa Augustine. Most young people
might not have the patience for it, but Cornelia didn’t mind at all. She enjoyed spending time with
Grandpa Augustine. The two of them spent the day together, both of them thoroughly enjoying
themselves.
