I also wondered why Bailey told me about having sex with Edith. Edith didn't tell Terry whom she was cheating with because she knew that Terry would w...nt to kill Bailey. Bailey had to know this as well, so why tell me? Bailey is not that stupid, unless he thought that Edith had already told Terry. I filed this little epiphany away for later use.About an hour later, I arrived at the Navy Exchange. I decided to do a little shopping and grab a bite to eat. I found a couple of new polo shirts in. The tavern I chose looked reasonably new. I took care of my horse, gave the boy a coin and entered eager to have a few beers and at least one young woman. The maid who brought me my meal wore a man's wide-sleeved shirt, open at her throat, a leather vest that pushed up her full breasts and a wide skirt of homespun. She had on wooden clogs and a permanent smile.Since the place was not crowded when she brought me my third tankard, I pulled her down beside me and stole a kiss and a feel of her. " Oh? What?" Tell us." Brandy begged."They made me a sex slave to Karl Whittaker." I've seen him around." Betty remarked."The sex part of the punishment is not a bad thing. I love sex. But not with nerds." Hold on there. He's on the school volleyball team." That just shows how desperate the school is for volleyball players."They went silent at that.Of course they were.They had to be. No sports team would be seen in public with a geek on their team if there was a choice in the matter."Ok, ok.. Shaking her head to clear those thoughts, Lindsey asked "That's a big reason you're worried about Dad's progress, isn't it?" Yes, it is," Mary answered. "I see all the wonderful relationships around here, and I know sex is an important part of them. I want that, and I don't even worry about it being sinful anymore. We're married. God must have given us sex for more than just babies."Lindsey sat by her mother and hugged her, and she didn't have to think about it. Nothing was said for a while,.
