Chapter Ten

Ruth walked into the meeting with Sarah and Jacob. They were waiting for Kelly Novak to show up drinking their coffee and eating donuts.

“Hello guys…ooh donuts! Yes!” She quickly walked toward the table and grabbed two.

“Hello Ruth.” Sarah smiled widely.

Jacob smiled. Ruth was down to earth and so sure of herself. She never gave a thought to her weight issues. She was comfortable with herself and ate with such gumption he admired her for not letting anyone influence who she really was. She was confident with her image, and that was nice to see in this day and age, where the unrealistic size zero seemed the goal of most women. This was refreshing to witness.

“Kelly has the contractors coming with their blueprints for the extension of the apartments. The projected date of completion is currently four to six months. I can hardly wait to see it,” Sarah said with conviction.

“That’s wonderful,” Ruth said as she munched on a chocolate filled donut.

“The place is filled to capacity now. And, there are so many who wish to be in the program. I think especially with this madman running around hurting the homeless, it seems to have accelerated their interest overall.” Sarah offered an update to Ruth.

“I can’t believe they haven’t found him yet.” Ruth said.

“I know it’s taking forever,” Jacob responded as his voice moved with emotion.

“It’s been going on for about four months now, right Jacob?” Sarah inquired.

“Actually, this will be the seventh month since my attack. I think it’s the same person. I don’t know why. I just have a really strong feeling,” Jacob said with sincerity, before noticing Kelly Novak.

She sashayed in with her usual flair of elegance and looked absolutely regal in her sapphire blue ensemble. Her hair pulled back in a fashionable chignon, white pearls held it in place. “Good morning all. So sorry for the delay-traffic was awfully heavy this morning, more so than usual. I think it’s the holiday shoppers already.” She rolled her eyes in exasperation and smiled.

“It isn’t even Thanksgiving yet…Holiday?” Ruth said in surprise.

“Well, the stores are decorated already, and people, tourists, love this time of year in New York City,” Sarah said with New York confidence. “Okay-so the contractors are right behind me; they made a stop in the men’s room.”

“Can I get you a cup of coffee Kelly?” Jacob asked as he stood up.

“Oh, I can get it, stay there. Thanks.”

She was so like a regular person, never wanted anyone to wait on her. She was a humble kind woman. Almost saint like in her qualities. She reminded Jacob of Sarah. They were so similar. They even looked alike.

“Sarah, how is Candy?”

“Oh she’s great. Thank you for asking. She’s with a fantastic nanny I hired who’s home schooling her also. Being she’s too young for regular classes. She loves it. She has learned so much,” Sarah’s voice was filled with pride. And, she went on like a proud mother smiling widely.

“Sarah is there any news about the pending adoption?” Kelly asked with genuine interest as she took a bite of a glazed donut.
