He was mildly amused when he noticed that David hadn't touched his coffee and Yvonne had barely made a dent in hers. He'd been fighting that long that... those little signs of nerves didn't appear anymore. They were still there but they were buried under the need to get the job done. As an officer he was aware that they would need to be dealt with but not until he had the time."Relax," he said softly. "No matter how these people react we will be safe.

I could feel the roar of the engine, and as he shifted, which was frequently for some reason, I would slide into him. There was nothing to grip, and since I felt like I might fall off, I took hold of his belt on the left and on the right. He pushed his hips back towards me, and bent further down on his bike, as he shifted again, and I slid into his. Then after 5 minutes the nurse came over and called my mother inside for meeting the doctor. My mother went inside and after about 5 minutes I was called inside too. As soon as I entered I saw a very handsome well built man in his mid 40’s sitting there. Then he said that he had understood all the problems my mother had and wanted to take her in for a detailed examination of the problem to understand better. Then mom got up and handed me her purse and whatever else she was carrying in her hand. Our house was in order. Mom worked hard too. I shut the fridge and walked to my lounge chair. Sinking in, I worried I'd fall asleep. I heard Mother shut down her computer."Honey, I need your help." No, Mother, You don't." What can I do for you, to get you to help me?" You need to agree." I reminded her. She never would. The original was her lesson of a lifetime."Okay."My heart stopped."I'll agree."It restarted with a thump that could be heard around the room. I didn't ask her, why now after.
