I, of course, had set the mood in the room earlier in the day when I had stopped by to check us in so we wouldn’t have to deal with it later. I spri...kled rose petals on the floor leading from the door to the bed, set up some white xmas lights in lieu of candles (due to them being banned in hotels), arranged for champagne on ice and chocolate covered strawberries to be brought in prior to our arrival, and had a couple gift bags on the bed with some sexy lingerie in them. As we enter the room she. If I hated you I could have sabotaged you in some way. Hell, I could have hired someone to bump you off if I wanted to go to extremes. At the very least, I could have asked Mom to set up an internship there, then made sure you got it and completely ruined your credibility on campus and in the business community.“I blamed you for a lot of things that were just as much my fault as yours. I could have come out swinging against you. I could have said the first thing that came to my mind that night. I’d worked hard and never found a “perfect partner”, although the blond I said goodbye to was pretty good in and out of bed.I’d also inherited my grandparents’ house at the edge of a small farming community in eastern Oklahoma. I was tired of the city so I thought I’d try the bucolic life. I’d visited there as a youngster and my father had spoken fondly of a girl he knew at a nearby farm, confiding to me that she had taught him “about women”.

I knew you were away for the weekend so I agreed to see him on.
