Wish Shift: Chapter Thirty-One
Spreading Her Broken Wings
Year 1 A.S. Day 173
The sound of the washing machine rumbled through the kitchen. Jenny had
just turned it on after loading it and walked into the dining room. She
needed to sit down. The effort of loading the bedding had made her a
little dizzy. She saw Derek at the table. He had his laptop open and was
writing down some notes occasionally on a scrap piece of paper. He
flipped between the open tabs and frowned before writing down a couple
more notes and then looked up at her.
He looked at her sweating face and asked her if she was okay. He told
her that she looked a little flushed. She told him not to be concerned,
she was just coming to sit down already. He watched her settle herself
in the dining chair. He looked over at his notes and folded them and put
them away. He asked her if she wanted something to drink. She nodded and
thanked him for getting it.
As he walked into the kitchen he looked it over as he often had since
she started living with him. Before it was just another room to him. But
now he couldn't look at it without feeling her influence on it and
somehow that comforted him in a strange way. When his mom had been alive
this had been her realm, even though she was kind of a lazy cook. When
aunt Dina was alive she had him in here regularly but it was still never
his. She had insisted that he know his way around to some degree but she
had also mostly chased him out when she was on a roll.
Now this was clearly Jenny's kitchen and unlike before it was also his
as well. When she had taken this part of the house over, he hadn't
really wanted to object. If fact it was kind of comforting to him having
this be clearly hers, but after seeing her parents in there working
together he found he liked seeing that kind of connection that they had
together and wanted it for himself and Jenny as well. He opened up the
cabinet and got her a tall glass and poured her some tea from the
pitcher in the fridge. As he put the pitcher back in and closed the
door, he mused that no one would ever call this a bachelor's kitchen
again and he was pretty happy about that.
When he put her glass down on the table she asked him what he was doing
when she came in. He said that he was seeing if an idea that he had was
possible and left it at that. They had a busy day so far. She had been
loading the linens in the wash after he had stripped them off the beds.
She had intercepted him as he was on his way to the laundry room in fact
and told him that she would start it while he brought the rest in for
her to throw in. He was still getting the hang of doing this kind of
housework together though. He was too used to it just being him who was
responsible for it.
He had girlfriends in the past who had done housework that way. Mindy
hadn't lived with him, but she was starting to be over regularly when
the Shift ended that romance. She had been pretty egalitarian about
chores as well, but he had also been fine with it when Vicki had
insisted that it was her responsibility alone and he should stay out of
her way. He hadn't stayed with Vicki long. She was one of those Church
girls who had tried to cultivate a romantic relationship with him
periodically since he had drifted away from their orbit.
The only reason that he had even started dating her was she had used how
upset that he had been by aunt Dina's death to worm her way into his
life. At first he had just been on auto pilot and she had been good to
him. She had listened and done things for him. She had been one of the
few people he had known from his church visits to come to aunt Dina's
funeral. And she had been constantly in his life in the weeks after. She
had been the one to keep him fed the first couple of weeks when it was
all he could do just to go through the motions. She had just shown up
with some saran wrapped plates at first, and later entire pans that she
slipped into the refrigerator.
Derek had been so out of it dealing with his loss, that by the time that
he started to move through, it she was already caring for the house,
feeding him and sharing his bed on a regular basis, but she refused to
move in with him. She would not even suggest 'living in sin' although
she had no problem with doing everything up until that threshold.
He probably would have stayed with her, he realized after they broke up.
He had been kind of lazy in his relationships before. He didn't cheat
normally and at first he thought that was because he had objections to
it. But after he and Vicki had parted he realized that it was more
because he didn't want to fuck it up because it was too much trouble to
start over.
What had really broken them was her not so subtle hints and insistence
on them being involved in the Church as a couple. He had gone along a
few times and that was a mistake he realized. He had been honest with
her about how the church ranked in importance to him, but she was
determined to change that. Brother Paul interjecting himself in their
relationship trying to get him to yield to her desire hadn't helped
matters much either.
The sad thing was that if you stripped away her religious focus and how
it had grated on him, the truth was that they had gotten along extremely
well. Surprisingly to Derek, he realized that in some ways Jenny and
Vicki shared some characteristics and that was something that he never
expected to recognize. He supposed that it came from her own feelings
on the somewhat traditional nature of her family and how she was growing
into how she would fill that role in her own life.
If Vicki had been more subtle about the religion thing Derek may have
overlooked it and ended up with her. She had also remained unshifted and
after the Shift happened she had come by to ask if he was still himself.
He had told her he was and spent a few weeks avoiding her until she got
the message that this was not a sign from God that they should be
together.
What had really been a step too far was her increasingly openly hostile
views about people like aunt Dina. She ended up opening her mouth one
too many times about that and he had broken it off with her. Being with
Mindy later had been a pure relief and until the Shift, Derek had begun
to think that Mindy was the physical manifestation of dodging the bad
relationship bullet. That was probably why they had been able to remain
such good friends afterward.
It was also probably why Mindy had zeroed in on Jenny as the right
person for him when he was aware that Derek couldn't get her off of his
mind. Somehow Mindy just seemed to recognize something in Jenny that
would match what Vicki did for him without her baggage. And even though
Jenny had a freight car of her own baggage, it was not the kind that set
Derek's teeth on edge the way Vicki's did.
Derek sat down and opened the laptop again. When the screen came up he
laid out the folded paper with his notes on it and told Jenny that he
was thinking of hiring a part-time person and wanted to see if he could
squeeze it out of the budget. When she asked him why he was considering
that he told her that after she had mentioned that both Dr. Min and Dr.
Nakamura thought it best to reduce her time, he got to thinking about
how things were going to have to change in the next couple of months and
he realized that he couldn't spend as much time at Java Jolts and be
there for her the way he needed to be.
"Mindy had already stepped up in a big way," he said, "and Teddy had
been wanting more hours as well, but I'm thinking that a part-timer
would balance it out better while I'm helping you after the kids are
here."
Jenny sat watching him as he laid out what it was that he wanted to do
and why. She really didn't know how she should respond to what he was
talking about doing. She did know that hearing him making plans like
this definitely touched a deep part of herself that he would even
consider it in this fashion. She had wanted to be with him like this
since she had recognized just what it was that their relationship had
become. She didn't need to be pushed in any way when it came to being
with him the way they were now.
But even with her feelings about him; feelings that she knew he shared
and reciprocated. She still hadn't expected that after the kids were
born that she would be staying here for longer than necessary. Even
though they both were quickly comfortable and settled with the idea of
what they had become, she more than half expected that when she had the
twins outside of her that she and Derek would back off a little and
continue their relationship from separate homes.
Her living here was driven more by necessity and she kind of figured
that even with how they had clicked once she was here that they would
both step back then. But listening to him detail what he was looking at
doing and how he was going to make it happen she realized that was never
going to happen. It didn't matter that necessity had dictated that they
push themselves along a little quicker in their relationship; they were
here now. And thinking that they could back water just because the
necessity had passed just wasn't going to happen. She really didn't want
to do that anyway and hearing from him that he wasn't even thinking
about it made her love him even more for it.
Jenny finished her tea and he asked her if she would like another. She
said she really would and he started to go into the kitchen to get her a
refill. As he did that he laughed inwardly thinking about how he was
doing the same thing for her now that she was his girlfriend that he did
for her when she was a customer. He heard a knock on the front door and
Jenny called to him that she would get it. He called back okay and
started to carry their glasses back into the dining alcove.
He looked up in the direction of the door when he walked into the room.
Jenny was slowly coming back from the short hallway and she had Madeline
and Brother Paul following close behind her. Derek exhaled a little
sharply but didn't say anything. What it was that she saw in Madeline
was completely beyond his understanding. Although he had to say that
since the Shift, she had behaved in a much more restrained manner. The
Madeline he had known when he was younger was not very much like this
one. He wondered idly who she had shifted with that had made her
slightly more tolerable to be around.
That Brother Paul was with her was not surprising to Derek either. He
had always known that they were married, but now that he thought about
it, he wondered if Jenny knew that. He decided that he would ask her if
she did later. Derek greeted them both as politely as he could even
though the last people he wanted to see on a Saturday were these two. He
was also pretty sure about what it was that they were here for as well.
Now that they had a foothold in their lives because of being nice to
Jenny while he had to be away, they were going to be trying to get the
both of them to start coming to services. He'd seen them use this method
of guilt trip to con others into stepping into their walls before and he
wasn't looking forward to the game of verbal racquetball he'd be playing
with the two of them today.
Jenny asked them if they would like to join her and Derek for lunch
while they were here. Of course Madeline quickly accepted and Jenny
asked if what she was planning to make would be all right. Madeline and
Brother Paul were both very amenable and Madeline waved Derek back in
his chair when he started to get up to give Jenny a hand. She was very
firm in telling him that she would give Jenny all the help that she
needed in the kitchen.
Derek settled back into the chair and braced himself for having to deal
with Brother Paul while the two women were out of the room. The washing
machine finished it's cycle with a loud buzzing and Jenny called to him
to ask him if he would hang everything out on the line while she and
Madeline were busy in the kitchen. He hollered back that he would be
happy to. He excused himself to Brother Paul and got up to start piling
the laundry in the basket.
Brother Paul watched Derek go into the laundry room and start putting
the sheets and other bedding into the basket. He put the next load into
the wash and started it. Brother Paul quietly stood up and walked to the
entranceway to the kitchen and beckoned Madeline over to him. When she
came over he quietly suggested that Madeline have a word with Jenny
about this while he spoke with Derek outside. She nodded to him and went
over to the mud woman and waited for her to finish her work before
suggesting to her that it was time for her to take her vitamins.
Brother Paul left them and followed Derek outside. He had no intention
of using the Water of Truth on him right now, even if Derek's willing
participation in women's work did disgust him. That was something that
he would correct in Derek later. It would be enough now for Madeline to
make the proper adjustments to Derek's mud woman while he kept him away
until it was done.
Madeline watched Brother Paul follow Derek outside where he was already
hanging sheets on the clothesline.
"Perhaps you should take a minute to take your pre-natal vitamins now
Jenny," she said to her.
Jenny put down the knife that she had been using and thanked Madeline
for reminding her. She left the kitchen and walked down the hall to the
bathroom and returned, pill in hand, a few minutes later.
Madeline handed her a glass of water and watched her drink it down. She
kept her busy while she waited for it to take effect. As she did so, she
inwardly approved of how Jenny handled herself in the kitchen. She
clearly knew what she was doing there and in Madeline's opinion that
would help make her an excellent wife for Derek once she had accepted
the Lord's truth into her heart.
Madeline watched Derek while he was hanging out the linens. She knew
that before the Rapture she probably would have approved of him doing
that. But since then, she recognized that it was one of those false
narratives that the old world had used to sap and dilute the order that
the Lord had instituted for his creations. Brother Paul would help him
see the light she was sure. He was strong with the righteousness that
the Lord had filled his servants with since He had begun the
tribulation.
Jenny had been making a vegetable soup while the men had gone outside.
Madeline had asked her if she wanted her to help her, but the petite
pregnant woman had waved her off saying that she could do it more
quickly this way. She knew what she was doing, Madeline thought again.
Jenny had quickly reduced the pile of washed vegetables to small cubes
and chunks and slid them into the broth to cook. She asked Madeline to
get the beef out of the refrigerator and then she just as quickly cubed
it and added seasonings before putting the lid on the pot to let it
simmer.
Jenny started slicing some Italian bread from a fresh loaf and handed
the pieces to Madeline to butter before putting them onto a baking
sheet. She watched Jenny sprinkle garlic salt and herbs over the butter
before setting the tray aside for now. While Madeline cut more
vegetables for a salad she watched as Jenny began mixing more herbs with
oil and vinegar for a dressing. Just as she finished she closed the jar
and started shaking it to blend it together. She didn't stop.
Madeline watched her as she slowly kept shaking the small bottle. Her
eyes were a little distant and the motion was steady like a piston never
varying in its repetition.
"Jenny, I think its mixed enough. You should put it down now," she said.
Jenny put the small bottle down on the counter and stood there silently.
Madeline asked her what they should do to finish preparing lunch and
Jenny told her that they just needed to put the garlic toast into the
oven and bake it for about ten minutes just before the soup was
finished. Madeline suggested to her that she go into the dining room and
sit down while she took care of it. She watched the woman walk silently
into the next room, pull one of the chairs away from the table and sit
in it.
Madeline looked over the soup that Jenny had made and dropped the
temperature a little and set the oven timer for the toast. After she put
the salad back into the fridge for later she walked into the dining room
to sit with the enthralled woman.
"I'm glad to see that you are taking your vitamins, Jenny. It's so
important that you do that for your babies," she started.
"I want to be a responsible mother," Jenny replied.
"And I know you will be," Madeline said. "You are so very attentive to
your children and I'm sure that once they are here you will be even more
devoted to them. You look like a wonderful cook, I'm sure that when they
are older they will appreciate that about their mother very much," she
continued.
"I love to cook," she said, "my mother taught all of us to enjoy making
good food."
"Your mother was a good woman," Madeline said. "A daughter should follow
her mother's example when it is a good one. I'm sure that you want to be
like her when your babies come."
"I'm trying to," she said distantly.
"But you still have to be your own woman too," she said.
"Of course."
"And I must say that I haven't visited Derek's home often, but there is
such a difference in it since you have started living here. I'm sure you
will be a good wife too."
"I want to be a good wife," Jenny said.
"I know you do, Jenny," she said. "But you're not his wife right now are
you? Not really," she pointed out.
"No, we're not married," she said.
"But you want to be."
"Yes."
"Then you know you really shouldn't tell anyone that you think of
yourself as his wife right now. You take care of the house, you cook and
you share his bed but that doesn't make you his wife just because you're
living in sin."
"I don't like that phrase," she said sounding like she was forcing her
way out of the trance. "I've never liked it. It makes something that
isn't that way sound cheap."
Madeline handed her another pill and some water. She should have
expected resistance with this topic. Worldly people were just so
separated from the Lord's view on the matter. "But you're not married
though."
"No, not legally," she said settling down.
"But you really should be though, eventually I mean. I think that you
and Derek should be together as husband and wife. You just seem to work
so well together."
"I'm glad to hear that you think so Madeline," she answered.
"Maybe you could show him how serious that you are about becoming his
wife?" she suggested.
"How could I do that?" she asked.
"Well you could show him how good it would be for you to be his wife,"
Madeline said. "I can see that it's probably you that is responsible for
the change here, men just don't clean the same way women do."
"You've never been in a barracks before a white glove inspection have
you," Jenny stated to her in a monotone.
Madeline realized that she had hit another mental wall and decided that
she should go much simpler.
"You should really be the one caring for the house. Derek works really
hard and you don't really have that much work outside of the house do
you? After all it would only be fair. He shouldn't have to work all day
and then come home and work while you're here like this should he?" she
said.
"No," she said, "That wouldn't be fair, I've never believed that either.
If you're not working you should care for the house."
"Then if you really want to be his wife you should probably insist that
he not do your job. After all, how can he see just how much he needs you
for his wife if he's still doing these things himself? And after you and
he are married you can let him do some things for you then can't you?"
she said.
"I suppose so," she answered.
Madeline looked closely at Jenny's eyes, her pupils had dilated so
widely from the double dose that it almost appeared that her eyes had
become black.
"Maybe your should just listen for now Jenny," Madeline said glancing
through the window at Brother Paul speaking with Derek outside. Neither
of the men showed any inclination to come back in for now.
"Ok," she said. "I'll listen."
"You need to do what is needed to be done in the home from now on, not
Derek. You want to be the wife and it's the wife's job to take care of
these things, not his. Cooking, cleaning and caring for the home is what
the woman of the house should do. You should not bother the man of the
house with women's work again. It's your responsibility as a woman, not
his."
"You are not his wife yet, but you need to do this to show him that that
is what you should be. But you don't deserve to call yourself his wife
while you live in sin. You haven't earned that privilege yet. Maybe if
you show him that you can do this the proper way he will see that he
should do the right thing and he will see that he should make you his
wife soon."
"For now you should think about what being a proper traditional wifely
candidate is. And you should think about what you should do to be one.
You should think about how you should never bother a man with your
responsibilities again from now on. Think about how if you show him that
this is what you want to be and that you can do it properly, the way a
woman should, than he might understand that he should make an honest
woman of you someday very soon."
"You think about that Jenny," she said, "I'll make sure that lunch is
ready for our men while you do."
Madeline had Jenny follow her into the kitchen and sit on a stool near
the counter. She kept an eye on both the food and Jenny. When her pupils
began to contract, she directed her to take the dishes out and make sure
that the men's places were prepared to reflect their proper place with
Derek at the head of the table and Brother Paul at his right hand with
women's places at the foot of the table.
When she saw her start to leave the trance state she asked her to rest
while she went out and let the men know that their food would be done
soon. Madeline made sure that when she came up behind Brother Paul that
she waited respectfully silent for him to acknowledge her and give her
leave to speak. She quietly told him that they would be ready to serve
lunch in five minutes and that the two men could come any time after
then when they were ready. Brother Paul dismissed her and went back to
speaking with Derek. Madeline saw the hint of a scowl ghost across
Derek's face and she forgave him for not knowing Godly ways as well as
he should have.
After they finished eating Madeline was gratified at how Jenny insisted
that Derek not do anything to clear up. It was so amazing to her how
quickly the Lord's light showed people like her the way now. Jenny told
him that she had Madeline here and that he and Brother Paul should go
relax while the women took care of this. Madeline noticed Brother Paul's
faint smile of approval at Jenny's improved behavior and attitude.
