As is our way when we are in our hot tub, we enjoy a relaxing drink. This day was no different. We were sipping on a batch of whiskey sours that we ha...d made up just for this occasion. We were sitting next to each other enjoying our drinks, our naked bodies touching and fondling each other. The moment was broken by the ringing of our doorbell. Not knowing who it might be, I got out of the hot tub, rapped myself in a towel and answered the door. It was our next door neighbor Jerry who had come. Mr. Chalmers tried to pay for it, but I made Mr. Kiner take the money that Mrs. Parsons had given to me. While he went to get our change, Mr. Chalmers reminded me to thank him for being so generous. I would have anyway.We got everything loaded in the trunk and part of the back seat. We got in the car and drove over to the orphanage. When he had parked the car, right in the front again, Mr. Chalmers told Bea we'd only be a few minutes with Mother Superior. He told her we'd be back, then he'd. "I don't havea sister and Dad and Mom are divorced!" Nancy was confused. Whatwas her Mother talking about she wondered. "She must be joking."Nancy said to herself as she stepped onto the floor of the foyerand walked towards the dining room.She let out a gasp as she entered the room. There sitting at thehead of the table was her father. Nancy stood frozen at the doorway.This was impossible. He had not come to visit at Christmas sincehe had remarried and that had been when she was only six. Since. That evening David cooked dinner and cleaned up. He paid attention to every word his wife said. He got off the computer early and was as perfect a husband as he could imagine. Karen seemed indifferent. And once in bed she was still fairly unapproachable, but he tried. They gave one another a perfunctory kiss and she rolled over away from him, but he took a deep breath and remained on his side facing her. He stroked her neck, shoulders, and arm, gently working up his courage. ‘Can we talk?’ he.
