Karen came over and hugged me after clearing out her desk. I could seethe sorrow in her eyes, but I just did as Geoff asked and told her I washappier ...s a woman now, that she had nothing to be sorry about. I haddiscovered my true self thanks to her.The tears running down my face she took as tears of joy.Four months later, Geoff and I headed down to Texas to see his home townand visit head office.I had lost 15 pounds on the diet Geoff had me on. Plus the corset tookmy waist to a very svelte 26. I think we should move in together." What the... ?" Connie gasped in surprise."Don't get too excited," Charles chuckled in reply. "It's not like it sounds. What I'm suggesting is that we find a place, like the penthouses over at the Hyatt Towers. We should take them over and turn them into our headquarters. That way we have a permanent place to work out of and a place in which we can relax." The Hyatt Towers?" inquired Connie, "aren't there people already living there? What about them?" There. Smiling at her own forgetfulness, she turned around and collected the bills. While there were many one dollar bills, Wanda did notice a couple of fives, a ten, and two twenties in her hand.

She relaxed, not paying attention to the last two dancers. Instead she wondered where Anne had gone to. Finally, the DJ called them all. Daniels emotional state was that of a complete lunatic. He was sure it was love, sure it was wrong, sure he would do it again as soon as he could, and sure hed never do it again, faced with the risk of burning in hell. Hey, wake up! Jason yelled at his dazed friend. Sorry, I was just thinking about trying to get my parents to let me go to your school next year. Daniels answer wasnt a complete lie, it was one of the thousands of thoughts he was contemplating. Really, you want to go through that.
