And the money, too! But I just didn’t have the spirit. And you? What’re you doing these days? Still systems admin?’ ‘Well, more admin than sys...tems, really,’ Justin chuckled. ‘Promotion to management makes all jobs seem just the same. But I’m still working for the same firm.’ The same firm, in fact, where Justin was working when Sophie phoned him up on her mobile phone outside the church. ‘Sophie!’ he said with surprise on recognising her voice. ‘I didn’t think I’d ever hear from you again.. That’s pretty self-evident because I couldn’t make love with someone I didn’t love. I could have sex with her, but that wouldn’t be the same as making love. I don’t mean that I love them in a romantic way; I mean that I love them in a caring and sharing way. If one of the women were to ask me who is my favorite, I would say that she is. That would be completely true, because she would be my favorite, at least at that moment. Outside of that, I try not to have a favorite, but if I absolutely had. " To which she replied "Good, I could use your help."I stepped into the room to find her only in her bra and panties. She asked me if I could help her hook her bra. Now stupid I'm not. I know any woman can hook her own bra but I was not going to turn down this opportunity. So I honored her request, she thanked me and told me I need not leave the room since I had already seen her in her bra and panties. So I sat on the bed and watched her finish getting ready. All this activity resulted in me. ." What, me and Ophelia?" I ask with a giggle. "No, heh. We- we're bothstraight. Umm, as in, only interested, you know, in guys..." Yeah," Tom says, fidgeting a little as we collect our drinks and sitback down."Are- is, you know, umm," I mumble. "Are- are you okay with me beinghere? I mean, because you used to know 'Jason'-" No, no that's not it at all," Tom reassures me. "You... Everyone atschool, you know, kinda knew that there... There was something, youknow..." 'Wrong'?" I ask."'Unusual',".
