I said goodbye to my family. I was scared but I knew this was best for me. I did get with Tracy one more time without her dad knowing. Looking back I ...robably did love her but was just too immature.I spent a year and a half overseas. I signed up for a second tour overseas after I got a letter from Tracy. She said she was pregnant and when she told her parents her dad found out I was the father, he had her have an abortion. She had no money and had no way to raise a child without her dad's help.. "You're going to be late." She openedthe door and looked around, seeing her daughter with the covers pulledup to her neck. "You're still in bed? You have ten minutes to get readyand get to school! Are you sure you're fine?"Julie knew that she should say no. But then her mother would look herover and everyone would know she had stage one of the P virus, thefreak disease. Under the covers her thumb brushed the evidence again.She could skip school, but then the doctor would notify the press.Maybe. ..”“What’s that?”“What we talked about in bed ... you know ... kids and marriage. I kept hoping I hadn’t dreamt it.”“You certainly didn’t,” I replied. “I’m dead serious.”“What sort of ceremony should we plan? It’s traditional for the bride’s family to foot the bill. My folks aren’t very wealthy...”“I think we can break with tradition. I don’t have a big circle of friends.”“I don’t have any circle of friends, here,” she remarked. “All my friends are back home. I’ve kinda lost touch with most of. Jack knew that and, knew how to handle me with love and loving discipline. Roger was the same way, the only big difference was that it aroused him to bare my backside and turn it red while I raised hell over his lap.This guy was just beating me to beat me. He truly enjoyed all of it. He layered hours of pain over a big area of my backside and thighs – knowing just how to do it so that nothing was ever ‘numb’ but always burning and throbbing at the peak of roaring pain. That makes it brutal..
