“What is it, Eric?” Frustrated, Eric pushed her hands away and stood up. He paced around the small room. “I couldn’t make love to you. Not li...e you wanted. And now you must think I’m lousy,” he said almost angrily. “Like I’m some half-assed lover who can’t keep it up.” Tracy stared at him. This was the absolute last thing she expected. She didn’t know what to say. Nothing could be further from the truth and here was Eric berating himself. Tracy stood up and went to him. She stopped his pacing. Today was Monday and they both had to work, and for once his life, he was glad to have the day to rest from sex.His life was looking up, he had movement in his legs but needed help in strengthening them. He decided to call Maria (his physical ther****t) and see if she could give him a helping hand. Once he had her on the phone, he began explaining to her what he wanted. "I need some help but I don't want anyone to know what's going on. I needed to talk to someone I can trust, you were the first. The door was left unlocked and I said that the door was unlocked. But he again knocked the door and asked “Can I come in?”Me: Yes.He came silently inside and he was standing in front of us as an obedient son.Me: Come here and sit raghu.He looked at us for the first time and went and sat on the sofa. There was silence between us for some time. I thought I should start.Me: So..ummm….what are your plans sons? I mean what do you want to do after…?Son(Raghu): Ummm…… I have got a good rank. I think I. Please don't think any worse of me."The way she held her...the way she spoke...her smell and her voice. It mighthave been the liquor coursing through her body but she couldn't help butrelax "I've never seen anything like this before, it's all so..." she wasquieted by Cassandra. She knew it now, Ariel wouldn't run. If this didn'tsend the little mouse scurrying off then nothing would. She was hers.Cassandra put a single finger under Ariel's chin and slowly moved closer.Ariel's eyes watered, her.
