Chapter 2- Speaking of Wisdom of God

It was long quite a day for the #POstables as Oliver and Shane had a mountain of paperwork. Norman finishing organizing his stamp collection he recognizes something weird and different in the office as the silence was defining in the room, he notices the quiet but yet awkward glances between Oliver and Shane. He tried to figure out what was going but couldn't but his finger on it. So he closed his stamp book and sneaked off to help Rita organizing letters. Rita saw Norman make his way toward she was getting nervous as he was leaning close and whispered

"Hey, Rita"

"Yes, Norman."

Norma notices Oliver and Shane being quiet to each other looks at

Looks at Rita and whispers

"what's wrong with them?"

Rita seriously--shakes her head softly and replies, "I don't know. But Well...Shane was acting very strange the other day. Perhaps that has something to do with it."

Norman said, "Perhaps, but what about Oliver we've never seen him this quiet."

Rita then suggests, "Indeed. Perhaps it's none of our business, though?"

Norman agrees with If Oliver and Shane didn't feel like talking it is their choice not to, but he was still a concern after they are friends, but he told Rita,

"You're right, Rita," then Norman goes back to work in helping Rita sort letters.

The silence fell off as the sound of Shane phone tablet alarm ringtone of the song

" that's what's up" by Edward Sharpe.

The song captures everyone's attention including Oliver as they heard the following lyrics

I'll be the sun, and you be the shining.

You be the clock, I'll be the timing.

While I was feeling such a mess, I thought you'd leave me behind."

Oliver got out from his desk was walking towards her office crossing his arms together just about to comment on Shane's choice of music when she turns off her the tablet as the music stop rush out of her desk rushed towards Rita and asked,

"Would you like to join me for lunch, Rita, my treat?"

"Of course, Norman, is that alright?"

"Sure, go ahead, I will finish here."

"Good settle then, Oliver if you need us, will be at the mailbox grille having lunch, would like me to bring anything back."

Oliver turn faced, say nothing, and shook his head "no" instead. Shane sighed, shook her head took watching Oliver slowly return to his desk. Shane then takes Rita by the hand as they walked out of the DLO office. Oliver stopped to turn and walks towards the swinging door look through the small window to see Shane and Rita leaving, and Norman went by Oliver's side watching both women they have grown fond of walk away.

Norman then sighs and tell Oliver,

"You've sure been quiet today, Oliver."

"The silence often of pure innocence persuades when speaking fails."

"Shakespeare" Norman asked

"Indeed, Norman."

"So Oliver, What, Are fail to speak of?"

Oliver stay silent Norman kept asking questions,

"Matters of heart, maybe?"

Oliver still silent Norman knows when to stop but decides to give one piece of advice about silence,
