''We broke apart when we heard the car roll into the driveway, we both recognised the familiar sound of the struggling engine. I glanced up at the clo...k and saw that it wasn't even twelve yet.''Jess is early.'' I said.Jess was one of the few friends of my sisters that I liked, I got along well with her and always thought there was a connection. She was a larger girl, and by larger I mean heavy, but with beautiful features. It seemed that with most of the bigger girls or women there were. That's how shaky the mother/daughter relationship was. The couple split up when Trina was five, then her dad got killed in a bar fight, three years later.Today, Trina is seventeen and could pass for twenty-five, that's how much she has abused her own face.But Trina became a problem: She normally couldn't care less about Roger, but when she learned he was a "cop" (which is all they told her), she abused that knowledge almost immediately, getting busted for pot and trying to use his name as some. She washed herself next and came out of the shower to find Robert had fetched clothing and had it laid out for her. A pant suit, blouse, and underwear for her. She smiled as she realized she was wearing lingerie to work, and he had chosen it. She dressed, finished her hair, and then checking her lipstick, and putting the tube in her pocket, she headed downstairs. Finding Robert laying out breakfast, she went to him, hugged him and then joined him in the food prep. Sherri smiled as she ate. Dani squinted and looked away. There were fragments of wood floating on the water nearby. She looked at them for a moment, then her memories flooded back.She had been sitting, half-asleep, in the boat, fishing (her fourth favorite pastime after eating, sleeping and making love to Jonathan). Jonathan had been sitting right next to her on the same seat, his back resting against hers. Occasionally, they would dreamily rub their heads or shoulders against each other.'I must have fallen asleep,".
