moments, Mrs. Robinson raised her head. “This is about Cooper, isn’t it, dear? Don’t lie to an old woman now.”
“Somewhat…I love him…but he needs more than me.”
“It’s not fair for you to decide what he needs, Faith, perhaps you should ask him.”
“I will, Mrs. Robinson, I’ll talk to him.”
Not wanting to hurt anymore, Faith smiled at her and they decided to go downstairs and hang the painting they had done in his study and make sure his room was ready for his arrival. They worked together until they found just the spot for the shades of blue and green. It was a nice touch in the artfully decorated room. They fluffed his pillows and made their way into the main hall just as the front door opened and Cooper was wheeled in by Andrew. Their eyes met and held for a second and Mrs. Robinson wheeled carefully over to her son.
Faith smiled to herself and made her way to the kitchen for some water and went up to her room. She sat at the vanity table brushing her short hair and took a last glance around the room. Mrs. Robinson found her doing this as she walked into her room.
“So it’s true then.” She said it quietly and Faith jumped to her feet.
“Mrs. Robinson.” Faith was unsure what to say so she started wringing her hands.
“I understand, dear, I do. Sometimes you have to walk away from a picture in order to come back to it and see the hidden meaning within. I have faith that you will be back.” She smiled at Faith. “Have you told Cooper yet, dear?” Mrs. Robinson had some concern on her face. She knew this was not something he was going to take well.
“No, I had planned to after dinner. I wanted his homecoming to be pleasant.” Faith shrugged her shoulders lightly and Mrs. Robinson came over and put a hand on each shoulder as she walked her out of the room.
“I think that’s a good idea, dear. Dinner will be nice and then you can go spend some time talking to him.” Perhaps he can talk you out of this nonsense was more like it, she thought to herself. Mrs. Robinson was no fool, these two belonged together but they both were hung up on reason.
Dinner came and went smoothly, there were peals of laughter from Mrs. Robinson and even Linda was in attendance. They had roast duck with all the trimmings and plum jam and billowy rolls as well as baby lettuce with chicken and seasonings. Miss Linda had outdone herself that was certain. Each member of the house staff made a point in coming into the dining hall to greet Mr. Robinson and welcome him home.
Cooper was surprised at the sentiment he felt when each person said their hellos. He was lucky indeed to have so many wonderful people who cared about him. His eyes sought Faith’s but she wouldn’t look at him. Something was wrong and he was determined to figure it out before the night was over. After the ice cream and mousse was served, Cooper expressed an interest in heading to his room to relax. Andrew pushed him and got him settled in.
“Mother, has Faith seemed okay to you today?” Cooper inquired.
Mrs. Robinson thought for a moment before answering. “Go talk to her, son. Before it’s too late.”
Soon Linda came by and he stopped her to ask the same question. “Linda, dinner was fantastic. Have you noticed anything unusual about Faith?”
“No not really, I mean, she is sad she is leaving but otherwise she seems okay.”
“Who told you she was leaving?” He didn’t want to seem panicked but he was.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Robinson, I thought you knew.”
“No, I didn’t but thank you, Linda, I’ll go find her now.”
What would he do, how can he fix this? He closed his eyes lost in thought for a moment before he set out to find her.
He could almost smell her perfume before he felt her presence in the room. She was all warmth and honeysuckle. He opened his eyes and she stood in the doorway. She was dressed in all white, a simple
