…Once again, Ron, had tears running down his cheeks. It was obvious that talking about how much he loved Ronnie was getting to him. I got up, put my...hand on his arm and told him that it would work out in the long run. I said goodnight and headed home. As I walked up the steps to our house, I remembered that Shirley had invited me over when I left Ron’s place.I would have joined Shirley if I had remembered but then I thought, 'If her husband was going to work at nine o’clock tomorrow, where was. They give me one to six months to live." God, no! It must be a mistake. Maybe they read your results wrong. No, it can't be happening." I wish you were right, Jerry. I needed to tell you. Barb isn't taking it too well. She just went over to see Eric and Sandy to tell them. Jerry, I need you to be strong for my family. I know you just got married and are having a new child, but I need you to be here and help mine also. I don't want Barb and the kids to go through what you did. Barb told me about. She learned he was in Uni, studying Sports Science. Was 20 years old and was currently working at a club serving drinks. Since clubs keep unusual hours he said he was naturally wide awake now because this was about the time he got up. As he talked Carmen found herself retreating to her drink from nerves. He was an extremely attractive man she noted. His hair was dark brown and wavy, and she found the fact that he had a gap between his front teeth extremely endearing. His eyes were a golden. The doughnut was still warm. She bit into it and an explosion of sweetness filled her mouth. This was delicious! He pulled a milk carton out of the bag.“I got chocolate milk too,” he said. “Can’t have Matilda’s doughnuts without chocolate milk.”He opened the carton and handed it to her.“I don’t have a glass,” she said, her voice muffled, because it was mostly full of the most delicious doughnut she’d ever tasted.“Who needs a glass?” he asked, off handedly.She took a drink and set the carton.
