We will ask within the community for a family who will take you in." Sammy, seeming a bit bewildered by the whole thing and not understanding exactly ...hat had happened said simply,"Thank you sir. I'm sorry Cheryl. And Ben. I'll be good. Promise. Um, uh, would it be ok if I stayed with my brother, for now?"Tom looked around the board. Doctor Bill stood up and suggested, "I think that might be good for the boy for now. This is a lot."Tom smiled, "I think we'll take that as an expert medical. Did you not see the note when you got in?”“I went straight to bed.”“What time did you get in?” asked Bella.“I don’t know. It was close to midnight, maybe after.”“Work is killing you, Alene,” Bella said to her younger sister. Alene rolled her eyes. She couldn’t cope with the big sister spiel. Not this morning. “I’m serious Alene. You work all day for a boss who treats you like shit and doesn’t appreciate you.” Bella looked concerned for a moment. “You also haven’t mourned properly.”Alene rolled. He heard Ivy throwing up, like a couple of times. There was silence for about two minutes until he heard her sit down on the toilet seat.Then she called out to him."Charles could you come in here," Ivy called out to him in a distressed tone."Ok. I am coming in," Charles replied in a certain tone.He went to the bathroom door and opened it. Her bathroom was larger even than the ones inside hotels. Ivy was sat down on a toilet seat. Her underwear and the short hot pants she wore that night were on. I could still enjoy sex with women, but a fullorgasm, an earth shattering one, an orgasm between man and woman couldnever happen. "never again", "never again". The words kept ringingthrough my head. It felt like I had the worst choice in the world, butit wasn't, it was no choice at all. "I had to survive"."I'll do it" I finally replied to the inspector. He had a deeplysorrowful look, pitting every bone of my body. He would have looked atme that way whatever I had chosen though, he knew. I'll.
