(SF novel) East of Nakba (146)
Chapter 49 Elder daughter, Anat (1) A capable
secretary (1/2)
“Shalom
hasn’t been showing up lately. Is she doing well?”
The retired general turned from the picture
book and asked to his elder daughter Anat. Shy-Rock was reading the picture
book for his beloved granddaughter Root on his lap. When he had been active, he
was scared for his fearless face and frightened behavior. Even nowadays the general
was scared by government VIPs, military officers in Israel. But now with his
granddaughter, he was an ordinary good old man who could be found anywhere in
the world.
"Shalom is busy with hospital work. She
seems to like looking over the children ward and arguing with male doctors
about the new virus or whatever."
Anat answered to father and turned around her
chair. Then, she looked down at his father's schedule on computer screen and devoted
herself to the question of how to take care of today's guests. Even after her
father retired from air force general, there were many guests. It was her duty
to coordinate his appointments. Since she was young, her father's guests visited
one after another. Therefore, she remembered not only their faces but also
their detailed habits in her memories. She was the perfect secretary for her
father.
