Bea and Bob found themselves more or less excluded and turnedtoward each other.Bea spoke first. "I like your nails. Is that the colour they call pinki...e?" She held her hand out beside Bob's to compare."I'm not sure. I've forgotten what it says on the bottle." Mine's called hot fuchsia."Bob desperately looked for a way to change the topic of discussion. "Areyou in third year too, like Don and Jim?" No, just second." Bea leaned over conspiratorially to whisper in Bob'sear. "But I'm more. "Tell that fucking solicitor to get his fucking arse in gear" he said as mum stepped aside to let him out, the smile on her face as we watched him climb into his car and pull away had nothing to do with him, but more to do with my finger that was prodding at the tiny little hole between mum's buttocks!"That reminds me" she said with a shudder and came into my arms to kiss me, "I replied to Karen yesterday, let's see if she's sent me a message"Our mouths opened and she sighed as we kissed deeply. She asked if there was no coil in the room. I told her it was empty. She told I can sleep with her. It was just what I wanted but I told her its ok so that she doesn’t doubt. She told I cant sleep in a room with mosquitoes and its better to sleep inside the net.I told her ok and got in. She started speaking to me and asked about my personal life. I told her I dont have a gf. I wanted to ask her about her sex life but did not have the guts. I waited for her to sleep.I just slept next to her. Tuk looked at her and his heart suddenly discovered the love of a man for a woman. She had a high rounded forehead, straight shiny black hair, a proud mouth with full lips of a dark wine color and a long straight narrow nose set between two sharp gray eyes that gave nothing away. For all the emotion her face displayed besides its innate pride and determination, she might as well have been a statue.John made the appropriate thanks, knowing this gift was intended to be a high honor, and then had.
