I had been looking forward to it and expected that we would have to choose her place or mine for after the party. Now I was alone, hot, bothered and u...able to participate. I had a thought. If I went to the kitchen perhaps I would find some scissors or a knife to cut the veil away from my cowl. Then at least I could have a drink. I eased my way through the crowd. Even in the kitchen there were a dozen people. I looked around, a difficult operation under my cowl. I opened a couple of drawers at. She made some small talk as she drove and then parked the car in her garage. Once inside her home he took her into his arms and gave her a long open mouth passionate kiss. When the kiss ended he still had his arms around her and she was leaning back in his arms. He didn’t release her and he brought her back to him for another kiss.Pushing back a little from him Deb said, “That was nice but let me go, I need to put the lasagna in the oven.”He still did not release her and she could feel him. I confessed this belief to a priest once and he laughed at me. He told me that there was no such thing as a Goddess or Angel who made love until one was well again, and that it was obvious to him that I had hallucinated the whole thing. I suppose he is right, but that doesn’t stop me from believing. The whole experience changed me, and I left my brother’s house – after the snow had melted – a new man. I was no longer afraid to die or take risks, and this allowed me to pursue dreams I never. I sighed and ran a hand through my short yellowish hair, wishing that for once in my life, things can relax and be normal for once."Here you go tiger, hope you get well soon." Mrs.Cassandra said handing me my slip of paper that excused me from the rest of my classes today, leaving me to go home and figure things out.I took the paper and mumbled a word of thanks, and shuffled out of the nurse's office. I waited until I rounded the corner of the hallway before straightening out of my hunched.
