" Bye John."Karl came in wearing jeans and a golf shirt. I guess it was after hours. I introduced everyone and he asked about Dan. I stood and walked ...utside. The girls followed. I said, "Mr. Hopkins, thank you for coming. Do you need a retainer or anything to make this confidential?" John took care of that we're good. Can you tell me what happened?" I told him everything including hearing Dan telling the cop he wouldn't answer any questions." I need you present with all of my clients," he. I worry about Jo too. It's not hard. I close my eyes, let my mind drift, and there's Jo.So she was grocery shopping on a Saturday morning. I picked up my phone, pushed the button and said "Johanna".Siri replied, "Calling Johanna Solheim mobile". I held the phone to my ear."Hi, Stoney," she said."Hi, my baby," I replied. "Why didn't you call?" Let you sleep late. I'm just getting some groceries for the week. The milk in the fridge smells funny. No bananas. Key ate the last of the Cheetos. We're. Flashback – Masha – The eveningI was still in shock when Louise showed up after work and again she wasn't alone. Gwen and her son George followed along with Brenda and her daughter Tina and even Michael showed up again.I met them at the front door where Louise noticed the new door and said, "Now that's a front door, I bet it cost you a small fortune!"Linda couldn't wait to get into Louise's arms so I handed her to Linda as Michael said, "It didn't cost Masha anything, why don't you tell them. Her parents as theyvisit claim to be very wealthy and expect a certain level of hospitality.I have my doubts.When my wife's mother sees her son living under the roof of a"construction worker," she is livid. I would be also. If I sent more thanclose to a million dollars US and my piece of shit, post doctorate sonwas still needing major assistance I would have come unglued. He was thatson. If someone takes twenty-five years to get their post doctorate, isthat a worthy accomplishment?The strangest.
