I loved what had transpired in the last couple of days. I didn't want that to end anytime soon, I just needed some gentle nudging and reinforcement."O..., let's do it," I said. "Call Candy back." Carol kissed me and told Candy, "She's all yours."I was going to get a complete make over, after Candy washed and conditioned my hair, two other girls came over they started giving me a pedicure, and manicure with acrylic nails. While I was under the dryer, Candy started giving me a facial. "I can't. "Warren, how the hell do you pay for all this?" she asked, so genuinely curious she momentarily forgot her manners."I've got a rich uncle," he grinned at her, deflecting her question into his finances. "You want to freshen up while I fix you a drink for a change?" Yeah, I'd could use a hair stylist. Where's the John?"Through that door to the left of the counter." Oh, and no thanks on the booze, I don't drink."Surprised, Warren came back lamely, "But... you're a bartender?" Was a bartender." She. Even after the strawberry is gone, the girls kiss and lick chocolate off each other.Amanda in an excited voice says rhetorically, “where did that come from?” Sarah only smiles and laughs and she opens the second container. Sarah pulls out another chocolate covered delight. It is a frozen banana on a stick. Sarah doesn’t offer it to Amanda; she simply holds it upright and begins licking it. She runs her tongue along the full length from bottom to top. When she reaches the top a thin strand. Below them, about a quarter of a mile away, lay the still smoldering remains of a small cabin. After a careful survey of the area with his field glasses, Jase signaled they should advance. Stopping in the small yard in front of the cabin, they gazed in horror at what lay before them.Julie stifled a sob, but tears ran down her cheeks. Only a small tendril of smoke rose from the embers of what was once the cabin. A farm wagon stood nearby, its boxed scorched but no longer burning. Tied spread.
