This was perfect. I could provide meaningful employment for men who needed it, men somehow injured in service to their country. Something told me that... I would need both the men and the dogs. Then I realized that it was still too early to call anyone, damn it.This morning, I beat Juwanna and Mabel to the kitchen. Hooking my laptop up to the satellite link, I contacted the supplier I bought armor from before and placed the order for the Southeast Sector Strike Team that was waiting in my email,. “I’m actually happy, but ... I didn’t expect to also be sad. Why am I sad?”No matter how many times Rhee says or implies that she’s “socially null,” she is as far from that pejorative as she is from “inconspicuous.”“You looked surprised when your mother showed that she cared, at least a little. Perhaps you’re sad because she hasn’t demonstrated that care except at your ... separation,” Rhee said.Heather leaned back from Rhee, thus more into me, and looked at her at length, Rhee meeting her. With a deep hug and kiss, she pulled away while declaring, "We will have each other for the rest of our lives now. I don't care whether anyone finds out or not. I'll love you till the end of my days."As it sunk in, I stared into her beautiful eyes and knew it was the truth. With that knowledge, I stated, "Okay, baby, let's go to a party and have some fun. Although no too much since it is black tie and a work thing." Jamie just laughed out loud at me and then so did I.She put on the finishing. . but that I had a little bit of webbing between my fingers. "Double weird..." It was only then that I noticed my Dad standing off to the side, staring at me with both his mouth and eyes wide open. I almost laughed at the expression on his face, though he quickly tried to recover and act as though everything was normal. That just made it harder for me to contain the laugher. "Um..." my Dad started, gesturing towards me and then turning his eyes away. "Huh?" I asked, looking down and realizing.
