That’s how some of your patients will be.”“I hope not, but I’m sure you’re right.”Maddie packed up clothes for the weekend and we headed f...r Mother’s place. My place, too. She still couldn’t imagine that the house was only 30 minutes from school and yet, I lived on campus. I reminded her about what she had said, about all the students and us getting to be roommates and she dropped it. Even with what I’d told her about the money and how I worked hard not to spend it like I had plenty, it was. The drinks continued to flow and Jen was enjoying the compliments that she was getting. At about 11:30 I went into the mens bathroom. While inside I met a guy called Steve who was wearing the same costume as me. With our masks off, we got chatting. He was about 25 years old, good looking and seemed athletic built. It struck me that this was the type of guy Jen used to go for when she was single. I started to get mischievous thoughts. I asked Steve if he was interested in fooling my wife into. “A Fender Astro” Cam said and looked at Josh “why are you grinning?”“You can borrow mine if you like, it’s a Stratocaster though” Josh replied.“You serious?” she asked Josh and turned to Vanessa asking again “is he serious?”“If I wasn’t would you be able to play tonight?” Josh simply asked.“No” they both said.“There you go” he grinned “you might want to get a new set of strings though, mine are pretty worn and I have no idea where my spare are.”“What color is it?” Cam asked excitedly.“Matted. So much of our conversation those days revolved around the latest crush or the current ‘squeeze’. We had always treated Adrienne like one of the guys so it wasn’t unusual for us to talk freely with her nearby. I recall the first incident where I began to become more aware of our differences. Gary and I were in a light-hearted discussion rating our female classmates. We forgot Adrienne was there. Our descriptions were blunt to point of being crude. That conversation got me some nasty looks that.
