.. I mean..." Randi. It's okay. I understand what you mean. I'm an Empath, remember?" I reminded her."Yeah. I've seen you do some stuff like, with my ...om the other night. How do you do that? Can you read my mind?" Not really. I seem to be able to 'sense' what you're feeling, and usually there are thoughts attached to the feelings, so it seems like mind reading." You can't tell what I'm feeling right now, can you?" she exclaimed, stepping back from me."Of course! And it's all right. I think. "Not that I would want to stop you," he added when her expression turned to a faux scowl.

My toes curled!We moved our mouths apart and both of us were breathing heavily. I said, "Maybe, getting my stuff would be a good idea."She said, "Yes, but we will do that again and not too long from now."We went out to my car and I grabbed my stuff. She had me put my files and computer in an area used as office and study. We left it there and I carried my bag of clothes and followed.
