Suddenly I wished for the strength of Heracles as I pulledagainst the chains to no avail."I'm not Aphrodite. Let my father go." You say you're not Aph...odite yet above us men and women are having anorgy. Only Aphrodite could cause that." I watched as he walked over to alarge chest and unlocked it with a key from around his neck. He reachedinside the chest to pull out a glass vial with gold endcaps. He held itreverently in both hands. "The hair of Aphrodite. Our ancestor cut awaythis lock of hair. She was recently promoted in her department and now she had to undergo five day training course. Her training centre was very near to our house; say 1 km only. She prepared dinner and we sat in one room watching TV.Now came the big question-where to sleep. I proposed that she can sleep in my parents’ room while I will sleep in my own room. But, there was one problem-that very morning the flush handle of the cistern in the bathroom attached with my parents’ room came off and despite repeated. She wasn't about to become involved in group activities. But I got her thinking about it-the idea was planted, and one day she asked for details, the people, where, when, what we would be doing. And then I knew she was going to come around. A meeting was set up-she was a little reluctant at first, but when we got into it she found she was really having a good time, and now she is a very enthusiastic participant."I said, "You know Karen is pretty straight-laced, she doesn't fool around and it. My hands lay uselessly, as if paralyzed, in my lap. All I knew was that I wanted this to happen and didn’t want her to stop. Katherine moved in her chair and her knees made their way to either side of mine allowing her to move closer. One hand delicately pushed its way through my hair to the nape of my neck, drawing me lightly towards her. I was barely aware of her other hand dropping to my shoulder to tenderly squeeze and caress my arm. Her movements seemed almost feline they were so seamless.
