Doc Burns stood several feet away, talking on the telephone. "That's right, Beth, my briefcase," Doc said. "It's in the top drawer of the file cabinet... You know where the keys are. Yeh, bring it right over to the house. Of course, you'll have to lock the office. No, Evelyn won't be back any more today, said she had a headache and was going home. Okay, I'll see you in a few minutes." He hung up the phone.A bald, heavyset man sat in a huge overstuffed chair. Evelyn sat on the arm of the chair.. We went out to the car and because it was in the upper 70s and the drizzle had stopped and the roads were pretty dry, we took the T-tops off the car and went for a drive. I didn’t say anything to Stephanie, but I wanted to make sure that her hair was dry! I was still shocked by Kara’s revelation and how clueless I’d been. Lucky for me, her mom had been cool about it.After lunch, I called Larry and headed over to his house to hang out. I told him about Jennifer and he was surprised. I was a bit. He looked backed at his mother still sitting half- naked on the bed. She gave him a wink, which made tingles travel down his spine.He closed his mother’s door behind him; and now felt very alone and confused.Jack checked on Bobby who was still sound asleep. He fixed some hamburgers and tried to keep himself busy so he did not have to think about what had just taken place. Had it really happened? The bedroom door creaked open. His mom emerged dressed in a frilly white robe.“Uh, hi Mom.” He said. "I still think a lot about thethings you brought up and how the TPE Mark created functioned. Theonly point I would want to make about what you described as part of ourTPE-dynamic is that the framework and basic structure was given someattention but Mark's demands on his time from the law school heattended was something that did not allow us to make much progress ormove beyond what he had articulated to us both." Yes, I agree with that observation very much and if we move forward insome.
