I learned her favourite colour, food and pet's names; she told me when her ...irthday was and all her greatest dreams and fears. All the while Emily’s mood and demeanour steadily improved. As night fell, keen not to overstay my welcome, I told her that I should probably head home.“Thanks for everything,” she said hugging me tightly, “You’ve been amazing.”“It’s not a problem, I’ve had a great time, really I have.”“I don’t. I hope everything goes well.”Feeling a bit jolted from both my rude awakening earlier and the sexual thoughts that were running through my head, I didn’t understand what Anne was talking about.“Good luck with what?” I asked as I helped myself to a bowl of cereals.“I told you yesterday,” mom replied. “I’m doing a big presentation for a potential client today, remember?”“Oh, that’s right, I’m sorry.”I did remember.

If you want to be Tammy that's fine, I'll do mybest to understand, as long as you're happy."They were soon joined by Dr Parker who smiled at Tammy as she saw herstanding there all dressed up."Evelin, Martin, Girls, I hope everything is ok here."
