But answering the phone wouldhave meant coming home early."Honey, calm down, she's safe," Dad said while wrapping Mom in his arms.That was totally une...pected on his part. I thought he would be right therewith her ready to ground me for what I'd done. But instead, he seemed torealize that I needed the time with Austin. He was also upset that Ihadn't answered my phone, but at least he wasn't mad at me for makingJulia and Stephanie wait. At least I didn't think he was."Megan, go get ready," he. I didn't know, maybe he was right, I guessed we were about to find out."Is your dad inside?" he asked."Yeah but he's in the shower. We're going to go to Denny's on eighty-three for breakfast. Why don't you go and grab a booth, we'll be there in about half an hour," I told him. He agreed.Dad must have great hearing because he heard the knocking even in the shower and asked who was at the door. I figured I might as well start preparing him so I said it was the nice boy I'd met at spring break and. That would not get him out of serving his country, but it would mean that he could perform alternative service outside the military.If you think about it a minute you'll see what Ron was up against. Naturally, the men who would want to serve on a draft board would be red-blooded American patriots. Indeed, the ones on his draft board were, and they were revolted by the very notion of a pacifist. They figured Ron for a Commie, or at least a socialist, who was trying to sneak out of his. But since then, all he seemed to do was look at her. She wondered if perhaps he was feeling guilty about fucking her. That wouldn’t do, she felt, her son should not feel ashamed of fucking, even if it had been his mother he fucked. Peggy did not want her son to experience any feelings of shame when it came to sex.Standing up, she pulled her negligee about her body, her decision firm in her mind. She opened the door and stepped into the hall, going toward Donny’s bedroom.As usual, his door was.
