. where, what day isit?!" You've..." Annabelle looked behind herself at something, then turnedback to me. "Everyone stopped fighting an hour ago." I... was crazy!!" Bee cried. "You should've seen it!!" Ah, I did-where's Gary?!" He fell asleep," Annabelle replied. "Dad's in the middle of town co-od... co-ed..." Whisper-whisper. "Coordinating the cleanup."Whisper-whisper. Annabelle paused. She gave me a glancing wince, thenlooked back at Charlotte. "I'm gonna need help with this," she. I asked Marg would she like coffee or would she like to join Debbie. She chose Debbie but asked could we sit and talk for a while first.“I was wondering what you planned to do once Sue has returned to the east?”“Well, I have my job. I need to do the right thing there. As for the rest of it, I’ll just take it as it comes.”“Our offer stands. You could move in with Cherie and me. We would love to have you stay with us. I know that is what Cherie wants because she proposed it. I wanted it as well. I had just about convinced myself that they were going to look elsewhere when Theresa waved her hands in negation. "No, if you do it, I can as well," she growled.Traci nodded and turned to me with a smile. She then waved to Theresa who sighed and spoke. "David, sorry about that. I guess I need to admit the truth. Yes, Traci and I are lesbians, but neither of us is turned off by the idea of sex with a man. It's more that we had bad experiences and found comfort in each other's arms. I was raped. Over the bridge I went, just making it before the traffic was stopped to allow a tall-masted sailboat to cruise through.I had a few more miles to travel once I passed through the city. I noticed several restaurants, crab shacks, and produce stands along the way. All were filed away in my memory for further exploration. One of my favorite pastimes was to find out-of-the-way places that would provide excellent venues for dietary study and consumption.Soon I found myself traveling through more.
