I ended up cracking up, and headed to the passenger side of the convertible.He kissed me, and then off we headed.We went to Char's house first. She an...d Parker were waiting outside on her front porch. She saw us and hurried to yell bye to her parents. Parker was already on his way down the path, he was practically running.He jumped in, and she came racing down the path, her shoes in hand."What's wrong?" I asked, giving them both a funny look."Parents are fighting again. They almost didn't let me. ..even he does. Do you understand?" Yes... yes daddy." Good. Good Girl. I know you will do well to please him. Oh, and one morething... don't ever take off the ring. Nobody but you can see that ring.Taking it off will turn you back to a man. Only when you pass your testsand I make your change permanent will you be able to take off the ring...now get ready. You don't have much time. Goodbye April, make me proud." Yes Daddy, I will" With that he hung up.I did as I was told, I opened the box to. They slow danced as Rory felt a bit of a buzz and before he knew it,Jamal's lips were on his. As he turned away, Jamal pushed back his chinand looked into his eyes again."Remember our deal, Remeka," said Jamal. "I won't say it again, orthings will change that you will not like. Show me that you understand."Rory looked up again at Jamal and took a deep breath."I understand," Rory replied as he moved his neck forward and initiateda quick kiss."Good," said Jamal, as he now returned the kiss,. "Hello Mr. Harmon, my Name is Violet Cardin. I'm with the state government across the mountain. I'm here about your car. That car belonged to a missing person. I just need to ask you how it came to be in your possession," I said. There was enough truth there to satisfy him that I knew what I was talking about."Missing person, I don't know nothing about that. The woman and her boyfriend came into the place and asked if I would be interested in buying her car for five hundred dollars. These days.
