"Well Brade, many city kids do stuff like this all the time. Stealing is no big thing to them!!" commented Alex."Yeah but still. Stealing is a serious... criminal offence!!" remarked Pete."Yeah you guys are right!! This guy is not something worth worrying over," Charles said, making a sighing sound.Brady grabbed his hamburger and took a chunk out of it. The way Brady was eating, Charles could tell that he was enjoying his food very much."Charles you ever going back to the big city??" asked. Monday morning, Jolene drove me home. I felt wonderful, but the closer to myhouse we got the more I was sorry that the weekend was over. I was hopingthat mom's discovery and Jolene's little white lie had slipped from mother'smemory and that the whole thing was over. For mother to see me dressed likea girl had been, I'm sure quite traumatic....even if she handled it so calmly.When we arrived I thanked Jolene and gave her a big kiss and hug. Shesuggested that we would have to do it more. I have been watching you this past month and I have seen how you have been coming along,” he said.“Watching me, sir?”“That’s right. You are a very attractive woman, Miss Daniels and a woman such as yourself is used to ... shall we say, the attentions of men.And this place does not afford a woman that kind of attention easily. So I know you have been denied any kind of real satisfaction in the affection department.”“Yes sir,” she said, sighing deeply.“Well I think I have an idea how we can. "He seemed embarrassed."It's not that much, really. I've done well in my life, professionally at least."She could hear the sadness and a small amount of bitterness in his voice. She took his hand."You talk like your life is over! You have a lot of good years left. You're kind, handsome, and I think you have a lot of love in you. All you need to do is find someone to give it to."She hadn't meant to say all that, it just came out, but she meant every word, and she didn't let go of his hand, even.
