“Have you lost your damn mind!” She shouted, even causing Anhur to back away slightly.Ephus sighed, started to explain then was quiet a few moment... longer. “I realize that you are scared, Quinn. I am nothing like I was when I first met you.” Looking at his young appearing wife, he stated. “As well you aren’t either, you young thing.”Quinn blushed a moment then started to smile. Just as suddenly, the smile was gone from her face.“Damn it Ephus! Don’t you dare think that you can charm your way. Jolene was so enraged at that point that she just came at me without thinking and I took her down twice to win. It wasn’t fake rage, either.”“So how do you help her?” Jessica asked.“It’s about achieving inner peace and exercising self-control. That’s what she lacked yesterday.

Gulping breaths and quelling my sobs unsuccessfully, I washed my hair and scrubbed my body. Finally recovering but still despondent. I went to the bar to make myself a big glass of clear stuff over ice, and took a healthy swig. I called my sis knowing that I needed her to help me with this.Dora immediately answered, and said, “I was wondering if you would call me. I’ve been with you, listening and feeling how you feel. Do you want me to come to you? How about I stay home? You guys up there and I can get together on Skype.
