We got back to the apartments in fine fettle. Kim locked the car and took my left arm and we headed to our house. And then I got a surprise. Jenny gra...bed my right arm. "Just to help me navigate," she said, giggling maybe a little bit too much.Kim looked at me, grinned, and an eyebrow raised. She unlocked the front door and we all went inside. Kim locked the door behind us."Ya got glasses, Timmy?" Jen waved her trophy wine bottle."Ssssure,"I said. I got up and went to the kitchen and came back. “About time you found me,” she wistfully added as she held my hand tight and pulled me away from the table. “Hello,” I whispered, my voice cracking. I sounded like a teenager, making a fool of myself. “You’re cute,” she chuckled as she continued to hold my hand. “I’m Katherine Anders, and you’re?” She waited for me to answer. I stared blankly into her eyes, the most beautiful shade of green. I took in a deep breath and spoke. “Taddeusz Mackowiac,” I answered quickly before I lost my train of. What time is it? Is Peter with you yet?" She sounded confused."Peter and Daniel have gone to get your car." I said. "I just wanted to talk to you about…" my voice tailed off."Mmm. About the other week? God that was something. You have a fine man there Catherine, a really fine man." Her voice picked up. "And we had fun too didn't we girl?" Damn right. That's the reason I was calling. To er, set up another date perhaps? The boys are no good at this sort of thing." I tried to keep the. I was fascinated by the way her hands manipulated the threads on the loom to make the various designs. She sang when she worked and it made me think of the sirens from mythology. Callie was on land, but she'd lured me in just the same. Time and weather permitting, we'd take another afternoon dip in the water. In the evenings we sometimes got together with friends of hers. I enjoyed getting to know them and was pleased to find a couple of baseball fans in the group. When I was able to talk.
