In My Desperate Time

The secretary knocks on the door and carries Earl in.
When we went out, Frances left Earl to his secretary. Now, Earl is up.
And he becomes very excited when he sees me.
That's why we should raise our children by ourselves.
When Earl came back from Whitney's place, he used to cry every time I hugged him. Fortunately, he stops crying now.
I pick Earl up and walk around in the big office.
Frances is busy with his work all afternoon. He finally finishes it at eight. Then we leave the company together.
I have no problem with him working overtime.
After all, the later I return home, the less time I'll spend with Hilda. This is great news for me.
Because I don't want to see Hilda, I ask Frances to have dinner with me before going home.
Frances nods and goes to the restaurant with me.
After dinner, we stroll along the street for a while before returning home.
It's already ten when we get home.
But Hilda is still awake.
She sits alone on the sofa in the living room, curling up in a daze.
When Hilda sees Frances, she jumps off the sofa and runs into Frances’ arms barefoot.
It's as if she has waited a long time for her lover!
I couldn't help but say in my heart, "Frances, if you dare to hug her, you'll be sorry for it!
Then I glare at Frances.
Frances finds out I'm angry. He naturally pushes Hilda away and says in a deep voice, "What are you doing up this late?"

Hilda raises her head and I notice that her face is glazed with tears.
"Frances, I dreamed of Terence. Why did he leave me alone? It has been so many years, but I still can't let him go. I miss him
so, so much."
Hilda says that in a hoarse voice. She has indeed cried.
But I don't believe a single word that comes out of her mouth.
Hilda has admitted that she likes Frances. Now, she looks so pitiful in front of Frances. It's obvious that she wants to get Frances
feel a tender pity for her by their shared memories.
Apparently, Hilda succeeds.
Frances also becomes sad. He sighs softly and says, "It's just a dream. Hurry up and go to sleep."
"I can't. I keep thinking of Terence when I close my eyes. Frances, can you talk to me for a while? Tell me about the stories
between you and Terence."
Hilda pleads with Frances in a broken voice.
I become vigilant and look at Frances, only to see him nod at Hilda.
"Frances, you...."
"You must be tired, too. Go to bed after bathing Earl. I'll go upstairs soon."
I feel very uncomfortable, but I can't show it. Otherwise, Hilda would only feel even more complacent.
Subduing my anger, I smile warmly at Frances. "Alright, I'll wait for you. Hurry up, I can't sleep without your arms."
A simple sentence is enough to show off my relationship with Frances.
Hearing my words, Hilda's face changes and she glares at me.
I carry Earl upstairs and bath him. After he falls asleep, I take a shower.
However, after I lie in bed for a long time, Frances still doesn't come upstairs.

I'm getting uneasy, so I get up from bed and walk out of the room.
I look downstairs, but I don't see Frances or Hilda there.
Where did they go?
