The only problem with this emergency plan was that I was stuck outside the car, surrounded by the Bulls.Jilly and Joey looked at each other. Joey shru...gged, as if to say he really didn't know what to do about the locked doors. It seemed to catch them by surprise. Jilly improvised by sauntering around the front of my car, and the two of them backed me up until I was leaning against the fender."Get out of my face," I warned, but they knew as well as I did that it was an empty threat.Jilly stood. Then she would persuade Colin not to make her sleep with him."Thanks," she said, "I am very hungry and thirsty." Six months under the Deep-Sleep gas does that to people," Colin said, calmly, "I'm glad you survived it, though you may not be; about ten per cent of the prisoners don't last the journey. Now, put your hands through the bars."Mystified, and a little shocked that she had been asleep for as long as six months, Helen put her hands through the bars without a word. Colin caught each one. I can't just leave, Cheryl has been very good tome, and I won't do that to her. She's been like a mother to me in somany ways that you don't have any clue about, but, maybe I can getsome time, maybe a few days, a long weekend?"That remark hurt her, which of course it was meant to. I was willingto give her a chance, some rope to hang herself with so to speak, butI wasn't about to strand Cheryl in any way. If my being a girlbothered my mother, she had to learn to get over it in a hurry,because I. I should have known she would! She came out of the ladies and made a bee line for them, her skirt hitched up so it almost showed her panties and her blouse unbuttoned almost to her waist so her gorgeous breasts were almost on display. The obvious leader or the group was slouched in a chair with his legs stuck out across the gangway and she stopped right in front of him one high heeled leather boot clad foot either side of his legs. Neither of them spoke as she just smiled looking him straight.
