I Will Be Waiting
Andrew quickly handed him the phone.
Gilbert took a look. His tightly furrowed brow slowly eased up. Even the gloom on his face slowly
dissipated.
[On Christmas Eve, bring Andrew and Ada over after your great–grandma falls asleep. I’ll be waiting for
you all.]
‘Was she hesitating because she was wary about Grandma and not because she disliked us disturbing
her and Jensen?‘ With this thinking in mind, he no longer felt upset. He handed the phone back to
Andrew with a smile on his face. “Come on, let’s go over for dinner. I will take you to ma’am’s place on
Christmas Eve.”
Andrew and Ada looked at each other, both having puzzled looks on their faces.
On Christmas Eve, It’s customary for all the families to have a family gathering, yet Davian was alone
in his apartment playing online games. What killed the buzz was that the other players were all
couples. He quit after just one round, then put down his phone, feeling depressed. As he looked out the
window at the brightly lit city, he suddenly felt a sense of loneliness.
He had worked for Gilbert for years and even forgotten about getting a girlfriend. As his parents‘ home
was too far away, he could not find someone to drink with on occasions like this. His phone suddenly
rang, jolting him out of his thoughts, and he quickly picked it up. Usually, whenever he saw Gilbert
calling, he would behave cautiously. But today, the caller ID of Mr. Kooper on the screen looked
extraordinarily kind. As he answered the phone, a giggle accompanied his softened tone of voice.
Gilbert glanced at his phone in puzzlement. “Davian?” He thought he had the wrong number.
“Yes, Mr. Kooper. It is me.”
“Talk nicely, and don’t giggle.”
“Okay.” Davian put away his smile and asked in a serious tone, “What can I do for you, Mr. Kooper?”
“Didn’t I ask you to find out the whereabouts of the women’s prison personnel a few days ago? Any
news?”
Davian pouted. He thought that Gilbert was calling to ask him for a drink. After all, Gilbert was also
single.
“Hello?” Gilbert impatiently frowned when he did not get a response from Davian.
“There is no definite news yet, but there are clues. So far, there are leads to two female jailers,” Davian
quickly said.
“Can you find out exactly where they are before Christmas?”
“After Christmas, maybe?” Davian was going to cry, as it was only five days before Christmas. There
was not enough time.
“Try your best,” Gilbert said.
“I will, Mr. Kooper.”
“Are you going back home this Christmas? You may take a break after this is over.”
“No, no, no… I don’t need a break. My parents will pressure me to get married if I go home. I don’t want
to go back.”
Gilbert smiled. “All right. I will introduce you to the right girl when I see one.”
Davian was all smiles. “Thank you, Mr. Kooper. Thank you, Mr. Kooper. You are the best boss in the
world.”
‘Brown noser.’ Gilbert smiled and hung up the phone. He got up and went to the window, looking out at
the lights, his mind drifting back to the time when he and Kisa were stuck in the cave.
It was a horrible place, and he almost died in the cave. But he missed those days immensely. Every
time he recalled Kisa’s persistence in saving him, her laying on him, murmuring that she would not
leave him behind no matter what, her saying she believed in him, his heart felt warm. These days, he
missed her terribly. But he was afraid that if he saw her, she would become as cold and hateful to him
as before. He realized that, in the end, he was also a coward. Still looking out at the city lights of
Calthon, he wondered which one of the lights was hers and what she was doing now.
He took out his cell phone and swiped his fingers over the familiar string of numbers, wanting to dial
them several times but dismissing the idea because of the concerns in his mind.
‘She should be having a happy Christmas dinner with Jensen. In that case, I shouldn’t disturb her,
spoiling their mood and pissing her off. Heh, when did I become so cautious with her?‘
He sat in the recliner, staring at the stars in the sky with fascination. His mind was flooded with her
face. He raised his hand, placed it on his forehead, and forced a smile, thinking he would probably lose
sleep again tonight.
On Christmas Eve, an upscale bistro was full to the brim.
When Jensen arrived, Adrien was already there. Adrien was not the only one there; there was another
person: Peter.
