”Landing in Zambia was a real experience. We had a preconceived idea that it would be similar to the airports in our country. Wrong. There were arme... soldiers everywhere and most looked like kids with guns. Looking around we saw a black man carrying a sign with all of our names printed on it. Moving through the throng of people we reached him.“Hello I am Paige Forbes and this is the rest of our group.”We were greeted with a large smile and a mouth full of bright white teeth.“I am Simon. Please. Your hair is beautiful.”“Thanks, Molly.”I handed her one of my new sleepshirts. She seemed hesitant to take it.“This is for you, Emma.”“It’s so soft. You sure it’s okay if I wear this?”“I want you to have it. You can keep it. I have lots of them.”She smiled as though I had given her an expensive gift. I think I even saw a tear form in her one eye. My heart sank for her. I grabbed her and hugged her tight against me. I felt her body trembling as though she was crying.“Which side of the bed do. .it was a big part of his plan,I was fingering myself without even noticing the reflex and i barely could control myself. The next day i took a shower,dressed in some tight jeans and shirt and went to his house,i knocked and he immediately opened surprising me by grabbing me my the hips and kissing me like a teenager,while he did this i noticed another reflex that i have never had,when he pulled me towards him my palms got on his chest instantly,like a girl.He kept kissing me and rubbing my ass. ”She hugged, both now crying. Both knowing how a month apart would be difficult, how we’d miss each other. But both also knowing that it was the right decision. It was who we were. Claire could no more abandon those children than I could deny Claire her need to help them.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The music was loud, and the drinks were strong. We were in another one of Jason’s famous clubs, only this time I was the one dancing with Claire. The night we were.
