I flop on the bed and pick up my phone from the table. I text Sonya on Melissa's phone number, "Okay to call, Sonya? Are you alone?" Yes and yes," she...replies. I ring her."Hello, Mary. I've missed you." Oh, Sonya, that's sweet. How are you?" Pretty wrecked, but I feel better now. They've been great to me here, especially Melissa. She's so gentle and loving. She's helped me feel safer." Yes, they are both wonderful. Did you have dinner?" Yes, and wow, Tara is a great cook!" I know." Mary, you. "Jo heard the words coming from Jill's mouth and one after the next served to make her feel better and better, until all fear and hesitation had vanished. Jill truly was the friend she hoped she would be; the kind you could even confide in with this powerful a secret."God, Jo. I'm looking at you and your brother in whole new ways now. I hadn't even thought about a brother and sister doing that kind of shit together..." Jill continued enthusiastically before her voice trailed off as her mind. Jessie wassurprised at how much harder Jason threw the ball than he did. Slam! Hehit the bottles dead square and they all went flying."We have a winner!" The attendant proclaimed. "Good job!" Jessie yelled finding himself super excited & giddy at hisfriend's success. He clapped his hands and did a little jump up & downin a very girly fashion."For knocking them down on the 1st attempt you get one of our largestuffed animals. Which one will it be?" Jessica, what's your favorite color?" " Hmmm,. "But its cold out there in fact inside our house also it's cold" she said.She was right it was mid-January and that was the height of the winter temperature in the night would plumb down to 5deg. In our house there were no heaters as the winter months were very short and in the day they were of no use. So instead I switched on a popular FM radio station which was playing slow romantic songs that night."Ma can we dance?" I asked her."I have never danced with anybody before neither do I know to.
