Do you know how I met Steve?’ ‘He told me he met you on shore leave shopping for fresh fruits.’ I answer ‘Ha, that’s what he tells people,’ He voice gets quieter, and I have to move closer ‘We met in a strip club, I was the main show.’ She smilesI swallow hard, and start to cough. I never knew a stripper, I only in college did I. I’ve always fantasized that I might get caught looking and be hopelessly shamed and embarrassed publicly. Perhaps forced to lick the same feet I had been busted staring at. But that’s just fantasy. In reality I am too careful to make sure I don’t get caught looking.

I wish you were two again, holding you close to my breast, holding your tiny hand in mine, promising you the world. I fear for you and for what the future holds for you. I pray to God that you will have the chance to live your life to a ripe old age, creating memories to pass on to your future generations. My children, I want you to know, you are beautiful young people. A mother couldn’t ask for more. I love you more than words can say. No matter what happens in this big, old world, be assured.
