Of course, today was one of those days and one of the asshole supervisors was there making my job hell. I had to rush home so I could take a shower be...ore I came over tonight.I turned the TV on and we watched some of the golf tournament as we finished our second beer. I got up and told John, I gotta take a piss. Our master bedroom was down a short hall off the living room. I went into the bathroom but didn’t close the door. As I was taking a leak I heard John come into the bedroom and say,. ” He took my hand and held it, smiled at me and said, “Pleased to meet you, I'm Nickolas.” He looked me over with very approving eyes and I almost blushed.As he held my hand he moved his thumb on the palm, I looked up at him and raised my eyebrow in silent inquisition.

If we follow the burned area and keep away from the edges, it will be hot, but the main fire should pass on both sides of us. Let’s move slowly and keep our breathing shallow.”He was right. The blackened ashes were still hot enough to damage the rubber tires on their vehicles, but not enough to more than singe the humans riding higher. The principal danger seemed to be the fire’s sucking oxygen from the air around them. Luckily, the wind pushing the original fire swept to them, and as the blaze. While trying to hold back further laughing I said, “Can you stop the act now Mom? Not all of us in the room know when you’re goofing around.“I’ve been away for a long time, I needed to have fun. Thanks for that setup, Kyla. What did you really want to tell us?” Mom asked.“I already told you. I’m pregnant. And I’m keeping my baby,” I said wondering why my Mom hadn’t believed me the first time.My Mom quickly sat down, “Oh. I guess I missed a lot in my child’s life while I was gone. That news.
