When I finally fo und them I got this idea. Why not pretend that I couldn't find them and after a while suggest that we played strip poker instead! I ...ent and told the others tha t I couldn't find the chips and pretended that the play was out but after the fi rst drink I somehow managed to get the conversation back to playing some card ga me. "You know what," Chris said. "No. What." "Oh it's silly. But I have n ever..." "What?" "I've never played strip poker!" "Me neither!" cried Sara . "How. Brrrr, it's starting to get chilly outside too, it's nice and warm in here." Kathleen scanned my t-shirt and jockey shorts, and PERHAPS her glance checked out my package-- or maybe it was just my imagination-- Or wishful thinking.-- Or both. Kathleen had matured into a pretty 26 year old woman. She wasn't beautiful by any means, but she was certainly pretty, and took care of herself with proper diet and exercise. She was very healthy and optimistic, and gave off a nice energetic feeling. On the sofa were two people. One of them was his mother... or at least he thought it was; her outfit was like nothing he had ever seen her wear. As his eyes adjusted, he realized with shock that it was in fact her. And, she was kissing someone that was definitely not his father."That was so naughty of you to take your panties off at your desk at work today," the guy said as he pulled his lips away with a loud smack."Yes, it was," Allison answered breathlessly.Chris recognized the voice of his. ‘Gloria, can I…I will see Mr Burnum in fa… in the office, would you please bring tea when he arrives?’ Presley’s voice was shaky, feeling uncomfortable in her new authoritative role, but knowing things must be done. ‘Of course, child. I will inform you upon his arrival…do not worry, things will work out for the best.’ The older woman smiled, her sad eyes didn’t do much to comfort the girl but it was a kind gesture and after a tight hug Gloria left the bedroom, her warmth lingering on the girl.
