It progressed almost exactly as Jacky's had done including the strange six weeks 'Nirvana' period as girl and mare assimilated themselves. Within mont...hs however, the four centaurs were to be seen always enjoying their newfound freedoms as they hurtled around the park in their brightly coloured leotards. They even invented a sort of 'centaur football' and were often seen thundering around at high speed in pursuit of a ball.Margaret and I often watched them and I sometimes secretly envied them. That's surreal enough. I wanted so bad for years to think Mom would change, but I never allowed myself to be optimistic. Now I have a mom who talks with me."I only dreamed," Mom told me. "Cindy, the guy LOVES me, warts 'n' all, and he wants to take me to HAWAII!" I'm only a little jealous, Mom," I said. "Trip to Hawaii. I got a night in the desert last month..."
