“Okay, mom, if I have to go I will. It’s just that I don’t really feel comfortable around him. I mean he was an okay guy when he was here, but w... don’t really know each other, and he does act kind of strange sometimes. I mean I do know that I owe him that we all do...” she said.“Becca, you need to get to know him. I think he needs you to be there for him. It’s all my fault this mess we’re in. But, unfortunately I can’t fix it on my own; he won’t let me. He might even hate me. I don’t really. "Tabitha shook her head, "I suppose that will have to do for today.I'll go into town later to purchase new clothes for you. " Oh, don't bother yourself with that. These are fine." Hardly," she responded, "now come along. We're already running latefor breakfast." She left the room while I put my clothes on,marvelling at how clean I felt. Once ready, we headed downstairs tothe kitchen table, where all three girls were already sat, dressed andready."Girls, your attention please," Tabitha. God Darrell,” she said to the tall, African American man she loved. “You have no idea how…how turned on I am. You have no idea how…how horny I am!” “I am too,” he said, smiling. “But we have all day, don’t we? We have all day and from what I know we have tomorrow too?” “We do or at least I think we have all day tomorrow,” she said softly. “I’d love that.” She smiled, while she looked at the most unbelievable lips in the world, and she wondered about them. Are those the…most wonderful lips. Lisele held me close and shushed me like a mother should. Like anymother would, except mine who had never held me nor comforted me asLisele was doing now.When I had calmed down somewhat, she slowly removed my clothing anddressed me for bed, in a nice soft silk bed set of pale green satin.Not saying a word. I was numbly moved over to my luxurious bed and thecovers pulled back and I climbed in and looked up at her with apiteous face.I was still in a bit of shock at the inequities of life aboard.
