Real Man
“I shall take over the grocery shopping task as well. I’ll do it on my way home from work. You will only
need to set your mind at ease and stay home. You don’t need to bother yourself with anything else.
Don’t open the door to anyone other than me.”
“Sure.” Deirdre’s face was ghastly pale.
It was her only option now.
Deirdre spent the next few days constantly in deep distress. Every time she heard footsteps outside,
she would be scared out of her wits. However, it was fortunate that nothing bad happened.
‘You don’t need to worry too much. How can Brendan possibly be able to locate us when we’re in a
huge place like Surstate? He’s not the director with the script of our life stories. You don’t need to be
too worried.”
Tobey took two bites of the meal and comforted Deirdre by saying, “You can go out for a walk to relax
your mind once the dust settles. You don’t need to stay in the room all day long because that won’t be
good for the baby.”
Deirdre’s grip over her cutlery tightened. “It’s alright. I think staying here is pretty good, and I like not
having to worry and think about anything else.”
Tobey looked at her and said, “Are you still afraid, Deirdre?”
Deirdre felt lingering fear in her heart after that day’s incident. She acknowledged she was being
oversensitive, but there was nothing she could do to convince herself otherwise.
‘Tobey, don’t you find it strange that Brendan is convinced that I’m in Surstate for sure? Even if he did
figure out that we traveled here by sea, there were so many ships heading to different places that day.
How could he be so sure that we’re in Surstate?”
Tobey fell quiet as soon as she made the remark.
Not only Deirdre but he was puzzled on this issue as well. In fact, he was worried that the cargo ship’s
crew might have revealed information about them to Brendan.
He went to sound out the situation on purpose and found out that the ship had yet to return to Eastgene
at all.
“I…” He was about to make up an excuse when his phone suddenly rang. Tobey saw the caller ID and
picked up the call at once.
“Morn.’
Madame Russell spoke in a cautious yet slightly anxious voice. “What’s going on with both of you,
Tobey? Why didn’t you pick up my calls for the past few days?” “Don’t worry, mom. I’m fine. Haven’t I
told you before that I’ll be busy in the next few days? The phone signal here isn’t that strong, and I’ve
just managed to find time today to pick up your call.”
Madame Russell was choked up in tears. ‘Tell me, why do you have to put yourself in your current
position!?”
Tobey said patiently, “Don’t worry, mom. I’m a real man, and it’s very normal for me to travel to another
city to work. When I have settled down here on my side, I’ll reach out to you again.”
Madame Russell wiped her tears and said, ‘You can give me an address anyhow, right? This will allow
me to set my mind at ease so I can know where to look for you if I can’t reach you at the very least.”
Tobey figured that she was right, so he agreed. “You won’t remember the address if I send it to you
now, so I will send a text message to you. I’m in Surstate, and the only way here is by ship. Don’t take
the trouble to come here because I’ll come to get you when I’ve settled down.”
Madame Russell said, ‘Why do you insist on enduring this hardship, boy? Moreover, you took Deirdre
with you!”
Deirdre was amused. She was worried that Tobey would be regarded as a kidnapper by Madame
Russell if she did not speak out anymore.
“Madame Russell, the situation is quite complicated. When we have settled down over here, we'll bring
you over and explain to you properly. However, Tobey has been very helpful to me.”
“Deirdre…” Madame Russell was sympathetic. “Silly girl, why are you still running about when you’re
pregnant? Your body is weak. What if something bad were to happen-”
All of a sudden, Madame Russell’s voice halted to a stop as if she had noticed something. She hastily
changed the topic of conversation by saying, “Is it cold there? Shall I send someone to bring you a
warm blanket?”
