" You are happy, aren't you?" he asked pausing and turning his mother to him."Yes. It has been very difficult for your father and me. But I am very ha...py now. I think I have successfully put aside the social stigma and the rules we lived by in civilized society. We are not the first humans who have done what we are doing, and we won't be the last. Now my heart swells with love for you and your father, not to mention your baby inside my belly. I have come to think that I am the luckiest woman on. She is my fantasy number one.The only thing about Rhea that was not appealing was her firm belief that co-workers shouldn’t date. This, if put the other way around also meant that she felt herself superior to me in spite of the fact that we shared the same post, maybe it had to do with her degree from U. S. of A. This opinion of hers had caused me and my raging manliness endless consternation. But, despite her steadfast refusal to have anything to do with me outside the office, Rhea and I. . here?” Nunez asked, while doing a more dignified funky chicken.“No!” Adam denied, looking around. “But dragons are!”“Should we run, then?” Nunez wondered.“You’ll only die tired.” Ben snarked.“Can we fight?” Nunez tried.A massive serpentine head burst upward from the sand in front of them with a shower of sand. Kyet’sol took all four of them in as she brought her snout to within a few feet of where they stood.Everyone except Nunez bowed deeply.“Guess not.” The Colonel muttered.“You were. “What?” I’d said, seeing the smirk on his face.“Nothing,” he’d replied but I heard him mumble something about ‘loves young dream’ as he turned his back on me and started putting shoes back in their boxes. He’d left shortly thereafter for his round of golf. Now the girl was back and she told me that she still couldn’t make up her mind about the pair she really wanted. I said that was okay and suggested she should look around, take her time.She picked out several pairs, and I assisted her in.
