I returned to my room to find Carrie lying on my bed wearing a robe. She grabbed the Gatorade out of my hand, pointed to where her clothes were on th... floor and said “you missed some”. I took the clothes and added them to the pile by the washer. As soon as I got back upstairs, she handed me the empty Gatorade bottle and told me to throw it away.She was still lying there when I got back. “When I left this morning, I didn’t know what to do…so I went to my boyfriend’s house. I never let him. He ended up waiting for a couple minutes impatiently for Rachel to emerge from the hotel room. He didn’t know what took her so long. She only wore one of the hotel’s terry cloth robes. But her face looked washed.“What do you want, Joe,” she muttered.“I want you to leave Eddie alone.”That cackle again. “You going to take away another girl from him?”“No.”“Because, unlike you, Eddie cares about me, and I care about him.”“Did you enjoy him?” he asked. “Did he surprise you?”She hadn’t expected that.. Kamran was sitting on the sofa as I came back into the room. He asked me where everyone was and I told him that they would soon join us.I stood up a closed the curtains as I heard Rani knock on the door.Kamran stood up expecting my parents to enter... The door opened and Rani came in wearing nothing but the Jasmine blossoms in her hair and the bangles around her wrists.I think Kamran stopped breathing for a second or so. He stared wide eyed with his mouth dropping open in shock.His eyes looked. I was just thinking that we should try to ease out of the deal with Janice and Don and set up something permanent with Jenny and Ian. I kind of hoped you'd see it the same way."The suggestion took Sue by surprise, and she didn't answer him for a second. Ben glanced over at her."... like I said, I don't feel comfortable with Janice and Don, but I do with Ian and Jenny."Sue nodded slowly. "You felt that way from the first. I don't think you're giving Janice and Don a chance."Ben thought he had.
