”December 18, 1983, West Monroe, Ohio“Mom is taking Sasha to the doctor on Tuesday, and afterwards they are going shopping,” Tasha said with a s...lly smile as she, Clarissa, and I sat in the sitting room at her house.“And what exactly do you mean to imply, Natalya Vasilyevna?” I asked.“I mean to imply you better be here on Tuesday morning at 10:15am sharp! Or you’re not going to live to see Nativity!”“My sense of self-preservation is sufficiently strong that I shall endeavor to be here.”“Tasha,”. As Mary sat and typed her charting in the computer she heard the door open. Her face made a look of surprise."Dr. Smith, what are you doing here so late?" I didn't have a chance to come during the day, so here I am. How are they doing?" Oh, just fine doctor. 513's labs came back normal and 515's oxygen saturation has been above 95% all day." Good. I'll go take a look. Maybe we can send one of them home tomorrow."Mary continued her charting and Dr. Smith went to assess his patients. A few. I’d had two affairs with younger and was tired of sneaking around. I asked for the divorce. He was six years older, and he didn’t even want to fuck. We hadn’t had sex in years by the time I threw him out. And as I got older, my sex drive got hotter and hotter.The ice in my ice tea was melting, the condensation was dripping onto my stomach. My black bikini and oversized hat made me look a little intimidating. I loved sitting on my patio watching Simon push that heavy lawnmower. I’m sure that. I think maybe he feels that you need one now and then to get people back on their toes. He handed out a few ear blisterings though. People won't forget for a while. Plus the security teams have been having regular drills again." They'll not be happy with that." Well, maybe not but it's the only way. Anyhow, I hear you've been busy too."I saw Tricia's head give a twitch of interest. "Just a pick up for the Trade Minister," I said, not keen to discuss Cora before I'd had a chance to show Freddie.
