âWake up, sleepyhead. Weâre getting ready to leave.â
Stevenâs voice pulled her from sleep. Janet wanted to put the pillow over her head but knew she couldnât do that. They were leaving to go to work at the house site. She needed to get up so they could settle her downstairs for the day.
The men had worked on the fence all day the day before and hadnât come in until nearly dark. She knew they had to be exhausted and yet they were going off to work. That meant more physical labor. She wished they could have had a day off, but the house had to go up and the fence was still just poles in the ground.
âIâm awake. Let me use the bathroom first. Then Iâll be ready to go downstairs.â
âI have your clothes ready for you.â Greg ushered her into the bathroom.
Janet was able to walk gingerly on her foot now as long as it wasnât too far or too often. They had agreed that she could stay downstairs as long as she was careful and didnât walk or stand more than was absolutely necessary. She could go to the bathroom or fix something to eat and drink. The remainder of the time, she was to keep her leg propped up on the couch.
âOkay, Iâm ready.â She hobbled out of the bathroom and let Greg help her with her clothes.
Steven picked her up and carried her downstairs to the living room. He settled her on the couch before arranging everything she might need close to her. He handed her the radio, and she stuck it between her and the back of the couch. Then he piled a small table that heâd put next to the couch with books.
Greg brought her breakfast and some coffee as well as a glass of water. When he stooped down to kiss her, she smiled and kissed him back. He was disappointed in her, but he wasnât mad, at least not anymore. She would obey him from now on about things like this. It was a small thing really. They hadnât asked her to do anything she knew was wrong or crazy. Staying off her foot made sense, and she knew it did. Why did she butt heads with him all of the time?
Because I want to make my own decisions and he wants to make some of them for me. I need to back off some and give him some control. I promised. She sighed and sipped the coffee.
âNeed anything else that you can think of?â Greg sat on the edge of the couch next to her hip.
âI canât think of anything. I have the radio if something is wrong, and everything I need is around me. I wish we had a TV, though. I could really go for a movie or two.â
âSorry. We canât provide that.â Steven ran his hand over her hair, tugging on it just a little.
âBehave yourself, baby. Weâll be back around dark. Donât try and fix anything for us tonight.
