Finally after what seemed like an eternity Jody came back with the coffee pot and cups. She poured out a cup and handed it to Eddy Ray, who loaded it ...ith milk and sugar and insisted Carly have some as well. Neither Jody nor I wanted any.I don't know how long we sat there in silence while Eddy Ray drank his coffee and gloried in his power over the three of us. Turk made that huh-huh-huh laugh at occasional, inappropriate moments. But for the rest it was pained, strained silence. Once Jody had. " Sure thing."The refrigerator was loaded in anticipation of six people for three days so there were many choices. Vickie decided to keep it simple and fixed a green salad and rib eye steaks.While the steaks finished cooking Jamie lighted a fire.As they ate they did as all young people of mating age do they talked about everything that had happened to them since they had last seen each other and they flirted shamelessly.After they washed and dried the dishes Jamie opened another bottle of wine. "Oh, God, you're Kevin? Oh yeah, I remember now." Did Stacia say something about me?" asked Kevin."I really can't say," said Becca, now nervous.The elevator doors opened and Becca and Kevin stepped in along with a horde of other people."You've got to tell me what she said," said Kevin."I... I... can't..." said Becca."Please, come with me and talk to me for a minute," pleaded Kevin."I'm already late for work," said Becca."Where do you work? I'll call them." I work at Davis, Peters, and Lyndon.. Mom always said dad and I were obsessed by the game and I guess we were.I guess I should introduce myself. Back then everyone called me James. Now I'm known as Jamie. That doesn't seem like too much of a change but it really makes a world of difference. Let me give you some advice. If you ever go into a hospital make sure you know what medicine they're giving you and what it will do. It could save you a lot of grief. I know... I found out the hard way!It all started one Saturday in mid-February.
