The Web Weaver
“If your practice is anemic and you wish to join me, be at Baker Street by one.
When I showed the note to Michelle, her eyes lit up. “Oh, Henry, you must go! I shall cover for you.”
“There will be little to cover, but more to the point, why should I go at all? This is hardly my affair.”
“But Violet is my friend. We must do all we can to help her.”
“Perhaps you should go then.”
She laughed. “Sherlock did not invite me. Besides I have several patients coming.”
“No anemia for you.”
She took my arm ...and kissed my cheek. “You are a very good doctor, Henry. In time you will obtain the appreciation you deserve.”
I shrugged, hardly so convinced of either of her assertions. “Perhaps. Visiting the Wheelwright home should be interesting, and Sherlock needs someone to look after him. Violet may have actually charmed him.”
The hansom stopped before 221 Baker Street, just before one. The cabby, who was as thin and worn looking as his horse, took his fare and tipped his hat.MoreLess
