Darleen had mastered the art of spoiling Tempest so well, she was actually able to predict what the girl wanted before she even asked for it. Darleen ...as well aware that she went over board but she honestly could not help it- she adored the child, she absolutely loved her. What she was unaware of, was the fact that the apple of her eye was growing more and more rotten by the year, and she was unable to see Tempest for the monster she was becoming. It was an odd situation to say the least, even. Is she home?" He was pretty sure Maria Perez would be a voice of reason. He could communicate with an older woman."She's always home, Errol. And Ramon won't be home from school for another hour, so now is probably a good time to talk. Come on in."Mrs. Perez was, as always, delighted to see him. She greeted him with a hug and a kiss on the cheek, and said, "Buen día, mi hijo. You like coffee? Maybe una cerveza?"He and Juanita caught the "my son" comment at the same time and looked at each other.. I has to be ten times worse, when you decide that for yourself." You really do understand. I am surprised. I expected you to just accept that Hugo is the only victim in this little drama," She admitted."Oh no, I worked with him. He can be a hard headed, opinionated man, who never fails to give you his opinion. He will defend it, even when you prove he is wrong." I said."That's Hugo alright," she agreed.The door opened and Hugo came in. It's a great night, just a little chill in the air. Let's. She turned around in his arms, and raised a finger to his lips. "Shush. No talking." He shrugged, and smiled, and continued drying her off. He knelt, drying her legs one at a time, and her heart beat fast. "This is really happening. Stanley is kneeling at my feet." She opened her legs a little, and he dried the insides of her legs, but didn't take the hint. He stood back up, and dropped the towel in the hamper. Without being told, he took her robe, and held it open for her. Was it possible he.
