My heart was racing. I could barely draw enough breath, and certainly could not move if i’d wished to. My head was swimming at the visual stimulatio... i was receiving. I was numb with shock, for nothing in her life had prepared her for this moment. The fact that her friends young son was undressing before her was incredible enough. Still more incredible was the naked body she was revealing to him. His ample hips were equally striking, as were his strong, dusky thighs. All this, in truth, could. She could have gotten her outfit from my bag. She wore a tee shirt and jeans. Well she did have to wear a bra. She was much better endowed than me. Where I wore military style boots or running shoes, she wore leather slip ons. Her clothes fit really well, which led me to believe she came from money. She was also too well spoken to be a gopher for a rock promoter."So how did you land the job working for the promoter," I asked."Family connections," she answered. "My mom knows a lot of people, she. I knew it was intentional and an attempt to disturb us. I didn't rise to her baiting me. Karen froze but held still only turning a little to look at her. I said, "Good evening, Marianne." Hello, Brother. Did your evening go well?" I think so. We had fun and Karen enjoyed meeting people."She looked at Karen. "He took you to that ratty restaurant, didn't he?"Karen took the bait, looked it over and rejected some of it. "I had an enjoyable evening. The food was great and the people friendly. I met. That would be reason enough to get me out of the way.”“No, I don’t think that is the reason Si. She escaped the hardest prison ever created, second only to Sol Ro in the Eye. She had help Si, and I want to know who did it.”“I know, I want to know as well and do them great harm if I can. I am sick and tired of all the things from our past coming back on us all the time.” He took another of the fish and stopped to look at it. He frowned and decided it would not be worth the energy to argue with.
