Part 5: Stasis
Chapter 19

Copyright (C) Lazlo Zalezac, 2004
Bob, furious, paced in front of the house waiting for Ed to arrive.
The man had hurt his wife's feelings for no reason. When Ed came
home, Bob was going to give Ed a piece of his mind before his
wife had a chance to see him. His stomach churned at the thought
of having to leave the house because Ed had been a bastard. Bob
had listened to her vent her anger for almost twenty-four hours.
Marguerite was furious with Ed and was threatening to kill him
when he arrived home. The day before, a package had arrived from
one of the most prestigious cooking magazines in the country.
Opening it, she had seen the silver trophy that featured an opened
soup can on a marble base with an engraving that read, "Soup Can
Award." Her name was engraved in large letters on the marble
base. Inside was a note from the editor saying that no one deserved
the award more than she did.
There wasn't any doubt in her mind that Ed had told everyone there
that she cooked from cans. As far as she was concerned, this was a
career killing disaster. She glared at the third place and three first
place trophies from the Culinary Contest for private chefs. After
receiving this trophy, those awards were worthless. She screeched,
"How could he do that to me?"
George had never seen Marguerite so mad and couldn't believe
what Ed had done. From the security center, he watched Bob
pacing in front of the house. He was at a loss about what he should
do in this circumstance. Walt sitting next to him shook his head
and said, "This really sucks."
"Sure does," replied George. Scratching the side of his head, he
added, "It's my job to protect Ed from them."
"Sarah is really pissed. She hasn't come out of her room all
morning."
The two men shook their heads as they thought about what that
meant. If Sarah and Cathy were both angry with Ed, then
preventing Bob from beating Ed to a pulp would get them in
trouble with the women. After several minutes of silence, George
said, "Why in the hell did he do that?"
"It must be a joke that went awry," answered Walt. "It isn't like
him. He's a stickler for the if it harms none, then do it rule."
The mail arrived and Bob carried it into the house to Cathy. The
normal procedure was for George to check the mail for explosives
and then give them to Cathy. Then she would deliver the mail to
everyone. With a sigh, George said, "Watch the monitor for me
and let me know if Ed shows up."
"Okay."
Once he had dropped off the mail, Bob returned to his position
outside the house. Ed was running late and he wondered if Ed
knew how angry Marguerite was with him. That would explain the
delay in arriving at home. Outside, he resumed his angry pacing in
front of the house knowing that the later Ed arrived, the angrier he
would be.
Cathy sat in her office depressed at the current state of affairs in
the house. The entire staff was well aware of Marguerite's fury.
She announced it loudly and frequently. Everyone understood her
anger, feeling that Ed had insulted them all by having a well
known culinary magazine send Marguerite a Soup Can Award.
Even in the office, she could hear the occasional shouts as
Marguerite vented her anger.
George went through the mail with his normal dispatch until he
noticed a magazine with Ed's picture on the cover. He set the
magazine in front of Cathy and tapped the cover with a finger. It
wasn't until she noticed the magazine with Ed's picture on the
cover that she showed any interest in what he was trying to
communicate. She opened the magazine and read the article. The
article was about Marguerite and how she was the best private chef
in the world. Her feelings underwent a complete turnabout, as she
became jealous of Marguerite and the attention that Ed had given
her. In hindsight, she wondered how she could have doubted Ed
for even a minute.
In the dining room, Shauna was waiting for Marguerite to cool
down a little. The kitchen was currently a very dangerous place to
be and for the time being she preferred the dining room. She
flinched as she heard the sounds coming from the kitchen. It hurt
to listen as Marguerite threw pots and pans around the room with
less than her normal care. The sounds coming from the kitchen
were too similar to the sound of hitting canned food with a frying
pan for Shauna to mistake it.
Cathy carried the mail for the kitchen into the dining room so that
she could give it to Shauna rather than Marguerite. At the moment,
she was a little afraid to face the woman. As she dropped off the
mail, Cathy said, "You better read the magazine."
Surprised by the comment from Cathy, Shauna accepted the mail.
As she picked up the magazine, she saw the picture of Ed on the
cover. A sinking feeling crept into her stomach as she opened the
magazine and searched for the article. She, like everyone else on
the staff, knew that Ed did not give interviews. If his picture was
on the cover of the magazine, then this was something very
extraordinary.
Marguerite, in the kitchen, shouted, "I'm going to kill that man and
can him for dog food. No, that won't do. It would be cruel to feed
that to the dogs."
Shauna read the article, stunned at the content. The Soup Can
Award was intended to be the greatest recognition that a private
chef could receive. The award was to recognize private chefs who
catered to the individual preferences of their clients regardless of
how unsophisticated those preferences might be on occasion. The
description of Marguerite in the article was extremely nice and
demonstrated his regard for her skills as a chef. Even more
importantly, it conveyed the depth of his love for her. Since the
article brought tears to her eyes, she knew that Marguerite was
going to be a weepy mess when she read the article.
Sticking her head through the door of the kitchen, she said,
"Marguerite."
"What?" Marguerite screamed the question, giving free reign to her
anger. Her arms were down by her sides with her hands curled into
fists and her face was a mask of rage. Looking at the large woman,
Shauna was happy that rage wasn't directed at her.
Clearing her throat, Shauna replied, "There is something that you
need to read."
Angry, Marguerite retorted, "What? He's firing me? He can't fire
me. I already quit!"
"Ah, Marguerite. You really need to read this," said Shauna while
she held out the magazine. It was opened to the article.
Marguerite stomped over to the door and grabbed the magazine out
of her hand. With the magazine crumpled in her fist she carried it
to the table and threw it down. Too angry to read, she turned to
leave the table, but stopped when Shauna said, "Marguerite, you
should really read the article. Now! It's about the Soup Can
Award."
Livid at the idea that there was actually an article about the award
in the magazine, her face changed from red with rage to white with
a cold fury. Shauna, seeing the look on her friend's face, left the
kitchen. She didn't go far, because she knew that Marguerite would
need her once she read the article.
As Cathy spread the word about the article to the rest of the staff,
George and Walt came down to the dining room to provide their
support. The news that it was a real award and one that meant a lot
had eased the tension considerably in the house. All that was left
was for Marguerite to realize what an honor Ed had done for her.
From the kitchen, Marguerite screamed, "I'm going to kill that man
and can him for dog food. No, that won't do. It would be cruel to
the dogs."
Shauna smiled at the difference at how Marguerite had said it this
time with how she had been saying it over the past few hours.
Rather than enraged, it was frustration at her mistake. The staff
chuckled at the change in tone. Finally, Marguerite yelled, "How
could he do this to me?"
Shauna stood and said, "Time for me to get in there. The tears are
about to begin."
As the others chuckled, Shauna went into the kitchen finding
Marguerite at the table crying over the magazine. With tears
running down her face, Marguerite read aloud, "The greatness of a
private chef is measured in how well they serve their employers. It
isn't the great recipes that matter, but the pleasure that the food
brings. Her food always brings me great pleasure."
Marguerite sobbed, her shoulders rising and falling. Shauna went
over to her and put an arm around the big woman. In response to
the show of support, Marguerite grabbed Shauna to hug her back.
She said, "Did you read the part about how only the best private
chef will cook any dish, even canned soup, desired by her
audience?"
Shauna laughed and nodded her head. Ed had put it better than
that, but her friend was barely able to see the page through her
tears. Marguerite cried out, "How could he do this to me? I was so
mad at him and he went and did this to me."
It wasn't hard to understand the relationship between Ed and
Marguerite. An external observer might easily mistake them for
newlyweds based on the way they teased each other. The staff
knew otherwise, Ed and Marguerite truly loved each other.
Everyone should have known that Ed wouldn't do anything to hurt
her, but like many couples in love there were times when
misunderstandings arose.
Marguerite, still sniffing, slowly pulled her self together and said,
"I better cook something for him to eat."
Smiling at her friend, Shauna said, "I would suggest grilled cheese
sandwiches and alphabet soup."
Laughing, Marguerite wiped the tears from her eyes, and said,
"That would serve him right."
Ed rode up in a limousine curious why the staff couldn't come pick
him up at the airport. All Cathy had told him was that the house
was in an uproar and that no one could be spared. He rubbed his
hands, hoping that he would beat the mail to the house. They had
promised him that the trophy and the magazine would arrive today.
He hoped to be there to watch the expression on her face when she
saw the trophy and read the article.
The limousine pulled up in front of the house where Bob was
pacing. Noticing the nervous energy of Bob, Ed got out with his
saddlebag and went to talk to him. The limousine pulled away
when Bob came running over to Ed. Without pausing to take a
breath, he shouted, "You better get out of here before I beat the shit
out of you."
Surprised by the unfriendly greeting, Ed asked, "Why would you
want to do that?"
"I'm going to kill you for what you did to Marguerite," answered
Bob confused that Ed might have expected any other kind of
reception at the house.
"What did I do?" Ed was very confused by the angry reception and
stood looking at Bob puzzled.
"She got the trophy yesterday," replied Bob, his voice chill with
accusation.
"Darn, I wanted to be here when they arrived."
The reaction of Ed was so odd, that it forced Bob to think about
what had happened. Bob was about to reply that Ed had to be
crazy. After thinking about it for a second, he realized that Ed had
suggested more than one thing was supposed to have been
delivered. Puzzled, he asked, "They?"
"Yea, the magazine and the trophy," answered Ed as though the
answer should be clear.
"What magazine?" He got a sinking feeling in his stomach as he
asked the question.
"The magazine with the article about the award," answered Ed. A
very bad feeling came over him as the thought that she might not
have gotten the magazine occurred to him. He asked, "She did get
the magazine, didn't she?"
"No."
"She's gonna kill me." Ed groaned and looked at the house
knowing exactly what the reaction would be of receiving the
trophy alone. It would have been viewed as a major insult without
the article that explained the significance of the award. They had
promised him that both would be delivered at the same time. The
message from Cathy that the house was in an uproar made sense to
him. Dreading the answer, he asked, "Did the magazine show up
today?"
At the question, Bob realized that the staff didn't have the full story
about the trophy. Concerned about what Marguerite would do to
Ed when he came in the house, he answered, "I took in the mail,
but I didn't look at it."
As the men turned to go into the house, Marguerite came running
out with tears streaming down her face. Running right past Bob,
she tackled Ed forcing him onto the ground as she followed him
down. Straddling him, she started covering him with kisses.
Shocked, Bob stared at his wife wondering what had happened to
cause that reaction. He realized that Ed was lucky, the magazine
had arrived and she was happy. Sitting on his chest as she
continued to cry tears of happiness, she shook her finger in Ed's
face as she said, "I ought to kill you for this."
She bent down and kissed him again. This time she delivered her
kisses with much more passion as her emotions went through
another shift. The past few minutes had been a roller coaster of
emotions. The rapid succession of emotions from anger to shame
to happiness to gratitude to love left her with little control.
From beneath her, Ed struggled to catch his breath. She had
knocked his breath away when she had landed on top of him. Bob,
seeing him strain to breathe, bent down and pulled Marguerite off
Ed saying, "Let him breath. You're going to kill him."
"He deserves it," replied Marguerite as she turned to hug Bob. It
was his turn to be smothered by her in her enthusiasm. Very
confused by the turn of events, Bob did his best to hold her up.
Shauna came out and helped him with Marguerite while Cathy
helped Ed stand once he started breathing normally.
Shaking his head, Ed said, "I take it you read the magazine article."
Marguerite spun and asked, "How could you do that to me? I've
been so mad at you since the trophy arrived and then I find out
about the magazine article. Now I feel horrible."
As Marguerite broke down in tears again, Ed said, "They promised
that both of them would arrive today. I so wanted to be here when
they were delivered, but I couldn't get a ride home. I had to wait
for the limousine."
Shauna said, "You better be glad the mail got here before you did.
You'd have been dead by now."
As Marguerite sniffled, Ed pulled out the ever-present
handkerchief from his robe pocket and handed it to her. She
accepted it and turned away as she blew her nose. Holding an arm
around his wife, Bob led her back to the house knowing that she
was tired and needed to be alone. Marguerite stopped and looked
back at Ed. With a grin, she said, "I'm going to kill that man and
can him for dog food. No, that won't do. It would be cruel to the
dogs."
Everyone, Ed included, chuckled at the comment and watched as
Bob led her into the house. Shauna said, "She was so mad at you.
Then she read that article and hasn't stopped crying since."
"I didn't mean for that to happen. They assured me that they would
both be delivered at the same time," replied Ed. The thought
occurred to him that it was likely that the trophy had been broken
in her anger. He asked, "Is the trophy in one piece?"
"Yes, she was waiting to break it over your head," answered
Shauna, realizing for the first time that she probably would have
done that. She smiled as she added, "Of course, she did dent a few
pots and pans while she pretended to cook."
"Oh."
Shauna bent down and picked up the saddlebag. With an arm
around him, she led him to the house. "Welcome home."
Laughing, Ed said, "Thanks. What's for lunch?"
"The menu underwent a major change about ten minutes ago. It
was filet of Ed, but was changed to grilled cheese sandwiches and
alphabet soup."
A huge smile spread across Ed's face at the thought of the simple
lunch. Hugging Shauna, he said, "Made with store bought bread?"
"Yes. We'll make it with that horrible squishy bread that you love
so much."
"That's great," replied Ed. It was exactly what he wanted to eat for
lunch. He smiled down at Shauna as he hugged her. "It's great to be
home."
Ed wandered down the street wearing his blue jeans and work
shirt. The first house that he passed belonged to his in-laws, Dr.
and Mrs. Hayes. Realizing that he hadn't seen them in a while, he
went up to the door and knocked. It was several minutes before Dr.
Hayes answered the door. For a moment, Ed was speechless as he
looked at the doctor. The man seemed to have aged twenty years
since the last time he had been home. He said, "Hi, Dr. Hayes. I
thought I'd stop by and see how things are going."
"Come in, Ed. It's good to see you back in town," replied the
doctor.
Ed came in and looked around the living room. It wasn't dirty, but
it was a lot messier than he ever recalled it looking. Dr. Hayes,
using his cane, went over to the chair in the living room and sat
down with a groan. Ed moved over to a chair and sat down. "How
are things going?"
"Slow. We aren't as young as we used to be," replied the doctor
with a sigh.
"What's the matter?"
"Oh, you know how it is. You get to a certain age and things just
aren't as easy as they used to be."
Concerned with the slowness of the doctor's speech, Ed asked, "So
are you keeping busy?"
"I gave the clinic over to another doctor that was looking to retire
to a country place. He's a good guy."
The news disturbed Ed and made him wonder just how bad things
had gotten. The doctor sounded depressed and that was not like
him. Even at the worst of times the man had managed to have a
positive outlook on things. His tone today sounded like he had
given up. He asked, "So, where's Mrs. Hayes? Out shopping?"
"No, she's taking a nap. She woke up this morning and didn't feel
very good."
"I'm sorry to hear that. Did you check her out?"
The old man was quiet for a moment as if he hadn't heard the
question. Ed was about to repeat the question when the doctor
answered, "She's depressed."
"I'm sorry to hear that. Why don't you and her come over for a
swim later?" asked Ed hoping that it would motivate both of them
to get up and move around a little.
"We'll see," replied the doctor in a tone that suggested that the
answer was actually no. His hand, covered with liver spots,
trembled on the cane.
The lie hung heavy in the air as Ed heard the truth. He asked,
"How long have things been like this?"
"A couple of months," replied the doctor.
The doctor looked, acted, and spoke like an old man waiting to die.
Since Mrs. Hayes was still in bed, it seemed to Ed that she must be
in worse shape. "What happened?"
Shrugging his shoulders, the doctor answered, "The normal aches
and pains of being old finally caught up to us. Her back started
acting up as osteoporosis finally ate away enough of her bones for
her spine to stop supporting her. My injuries have come back to
haunt me."
"Is there anything that I can do?" asked Ed.
"No. We're beyond medical science," replied the doctor. He looked
out the window of the living room unable to look directly at Ed. It
hurt to admit that aloud, but he knew that lying to Ed was a waste
of time.
Sitting across the room, Ed watched as the old man settled into
himself a little more. It was more like a collapsing into depression,
the relaxing into his chair. Ed said, "You can't give up."
For the first time since Ed had come, the doctor answered the
question with fire, "Why the hell not?"
Ed didn't know how to answer that question and sat there staring at
the doctor. Licking his lips, he said, "We need you still. The kids
will be coming home in the summer and want to see you."
"I guess." The doctor closed his eyes for a moment and then said,
"I'm feeling tired. Would you mind showing yourself out?"
"I don't mind. Can I hire someone to help out around the house?"
"I'll think about it."
Ed left the house worried about the elderly couple. In the street, he
pulled out his cell phone and called the Druid College. When the
receptionist answered, Ed said, "This is Ed Biggers. Could you get
me in touch with Kelly?"
It took several minutes before Kelly picked up a phone and
answered, "Hello?"
"Kelly, this is Ed."
Surprised to hear from Ed so soon after getting home, she asked,
"What's going on?"
"I'm worried about Dr. and Mrs. Hayes. I think they need some of
your healing magic."
There was a long moment of silence as Kelly considered how to
answer the request. Finally, she asked, "Were they injured?"
"No. She's suffering from osteoporosis and his old injuries are
acting up," answered Ed. If the elderly couple were beyond the
help of medicine, perhaps they weren't beyond the help of magic.
At least he hoped that would be the case.
"There are limits to my gift. I can heal injury, but not age. I'm sorry
Ed," replied Kelly.
"I didn't realize that," said Ed as he looked up at the house.
"I'm really sorry, Ed. They are getting old. My gift can't turn back
the hands of time. It can only speed up healing."
Ed squatted down finding it hard to remain standing as he
processed the implications of her answer. Dr. and Mrs. Hayes were
only going to suffer more as time went by. That was the last thing
that he wanted for anyone.
"Ed? Ed, are you there?" The long silence worried Kelly.
"Yes, I'm here."
"What's that matter?"
"Sorry, I was just hoping that you could help them." He sighed as
he thought about what he could do to make the last years of their
lives happy. Tomorrow, he would go to the employment agency
and interview caretakers.
"I'll come out in a week or so to see them."
"Thanks, that will make me feel a little better. I'm going to
interview caretakers for them tomorrow."
The conversation ended with a recap of the episode with
Marguerite. Kelly laughed as she said that he was going to have to
be a lot more careful about his jokes. Of course, she had heard the
whole story from Cathy already. Cathy had provided a lot more
details about the twenty-four hours when Marguerite was angry
with Ed.
The discussion had taken the edge off the feeling of depression that
had settled over Ed. After returning the phone to his robe pocket,
he headed on down the street. The office was his next stop. It was
time for him to get caught up on business and see how it was
doing.
There were two cars parked in the driveway and another two cars
parked at the curb. Things must be going well if they had two
customers. Entering, he found a woman at the desk. Two aspects of
her appearance struck Ed, she was very pregnant and she was
wearing large round glasses that made her look like an owl. Taken
by surprised, he said, "Ah, is Lynn here?"
In a very soft breathy voice that was incredibly sexy, the woman
answered, "Yes, may I know who is calling?"
"Ed," he replied wondering who the woman was.
She got on the phone and talked to Lynn. Even before she had
disconnected, Lynn had burst through the door to greet Ed. On
reaching him, she threw her arms around him saying, "You're back.
We've missed you."
The receptionist stared at Lynn, not understanding her reaction to
this man. She had been temping here for a week and had not seen
Lynn act in anything other than a professional manner.
Hearing the noise, Terry came out of the computer room and
spotted Ed. Coming over to him, he extended a hand saying,
"You're back. It's good to see you."
Looking around the office, it was hard to miss the minor
improvements. It was also a little crowded as the needs of the
business had grown beyond the space of the house. Ed replied, "It's
great to be back."
A young man came out of the back room. Again, Ed didn't
recognize him and asked, "Are you in a meeting?"
Terry answered, "No. We were just preparing for a survey in New
Mexico."
"Ah, so I take it the young man behind you is your new assistant."
Although Ed had told Terry and Lynn to hire assistants, he
suddenly didn't feel comfortable about the fact that they had hired
people without allowing him a chance to interview them. Of
course, he hadn't told the pair that he wanted to interview them.
Turning to look at the young man, Terry said, "Allow me to
introduce Stan Winslow. He was recommended to me by Calvin."
The news that Calvin had been involved in hiring the kid was a
major relief. As a Druid, Calvin wouldn't recommend someone that
would cause harm. He faced the kid directly and said, "Hello, Stan.
I'm Ed."
"Nice to meet you Ed," replied Stan still not realizing that it was
Ed Biggers, owner of the business, with whom he was talking.
Lynn said, "Ed, this is Mary Gold."
"Ah. It is nice to meet you Mary." Ed tipped his hat in her
direction.
In that same soft sexy voice, she replied, "It's nice to meet you."
Although tempted to say it aloud, Ed wondered how Terry or Stan
managed to get any work done around that voice. Instead, he
asked, "When are you due?"
"In three weeks," replied the woman as she ran her hand over her
swollen belly.
"Wow," remarked Ed amazed that she still had three weeks. She
looked very pregnant as though she was ready to give birth
anytime. He asked, "Twins?"
"How did you know?" asked Mary.
"I have a little experience with pregnant women," replied Ed
thinking about having been on hand for three women going
through the greatest miracle. Turning to Lynn, he asked, "Shouldn't
she be on medical leave? She's going to give birth to twins soon
and should be conserving her strength."
Realizing that Ed thought that Mary Gold was a permanent
employee answered, "She's the temp they sent over this week."
"Oh," replied Ed, not knowing what to make of the news.
Lynn put a hand on his arm and said, "Don't worry. We aren't
working her too hard. She's just answering phones, sorting the
mail, and keeping track of our calendars."
Mary replied, "I don't mind working. It beats staying at home."
It was well known how much Ed liked to spoil pregnant women.
Lynn said, "Don't worry about him, Mary. He treats pregnant
women like they are fragile."
"It is the greatest miracle that anyone can participate in," replied
Ed as though that explained everything.
After that, Ed met with Jerry and Lynn to establish how his
business interests were performing. The mine was bringing in an
obscene amount of money and Ed didn't feel right about that. The
businesses that he had invested in were successes and returning
much more than he had invested. Even though he was donating
money for computers in public schools, his balance sheets were
still growing.
After business had been completed, Ed took everyone down to
Shirley's Bar for tea and conversation in a more relaxing
atmosphere. In the course of the conversations, he found that Stan
had been a classmate of Nora Turner. While Nora's education was
held back by her film career, Stan had graduated with reasonable
grades.
