You’ll have to trust me and see it for yourself.’ I looked at her. ‘You know how I love you. Trust me, Millie. Please.’ Doubtfully, she final...y came into my arms and snuggled close as I stroked the beautiful, bare, smooth expanses of her exposed skin. ‘Is it a private beach?’ she asked hopefully in a tiny voice. ‘Nobody else will be there?’ ‘No, it’s a public beach. There’ll be lots of people there. But it’ll be all right. You’ll see.’ ‘I can’t imagine what could possibly make it all right.’. His accent soothes me, his eyes warm me and the touch of his hand seduces me into complete submission. He has asked for nothing and I will give him everything for that moment, his presence within me to never end. The water splashes over the water pitcher and sprays out at my uniform. Great! Now that I am cooled off with reality I grab a towel and curse the faucet. My shirt is soaked and the fact is white isn’t going to help matters any. Thank goodness it is 12 midnight and has 7 hours to dry. I. Ann, as always, exhibited a natural style and grace.Tonight, she wore a classic skirted suit in navy with a whitesatin blouse. First, she proposed a toast, wishing Karen and memuch happiness in our life together. Then she called on Karen's"Best Man" for a few remarks. This was actually Sarah, anotherof Karen's childhood friends. Sarah made a few humorous remarksabout weddings and marriage. She then turned to Karen and I andsaid, "Karen, I had always hoped that you would find someonethat was. If you don’t think it would be a problem, you can take them with you right now. I don’t even want to know what they would be willing to do to get a bedroom of their own, even if just for a few days a week,” she told me.I did call my parents to ask if they saw any problems with what I suggested, even if it was my house, and they said that it would be great to help Ellen and now Crimilda to have some friends around their age.One thing I hadn’t thought about is that mom said this would help me.
