GifHoliday NightsA short storyEvery year for Christmas, Ben, Lisa, and their son Josh pack up and drive to Lisa’s parents. It’s the home where Lis... and her two sisters grew up.Of course, now she and her sisters are all married and have families of their own, so everyone books rooms at the local motel.Since Ben and Lisa live the farthest away, they are always the last to arrive and so they don’t bother checking in at the hotel until the end of the night.Getting Lisa and her family under one roof. We would have liked to have booked a double but because Jenny was travelling with us, we had to keep up appearances, just in case she visited our room for any reason. Incidentally, I had had a brief affair with Jenny a number of years ago, before she married, but that’s another story. I confirmed the arrangements and started counting down the days. Looking forward to a stressful meeting seemed strange but it was the fringe benefits I was really looking forward to. On one occasion, when. Lorraine slowly turned and faced the wall,she then received a sharp slap across her bottom from Sr.Severia who had used the end of the long strap the nuns wore around their waists.Sr.Severia then caught Lorraine's left arm with her left hand and using her right hand spanked Lorraine a number of times,while this was taking place the door to the Reverand Mother's study opend.Sr.Severia stopped the spanking. Elaeanor and the Reverand Mother came out."Hi,Lorraine",Eleanor said,her eyes were red. I guess I didn't realize I was doing it until he leaned in and said to me, "Look, this is probably going to be the last time I ever see you, but I have to ask: do you want to come up to my room?" Huh?" I asked. By then, it was only the two of us left. It was late, and I had maybe one beer too many. "What d'you mean?" You know," he said. It was cute. He was all red in the face and nervous. "Sex." I'm married!" I said. "That's pretty bold." So … d'you want to or not?"Right away, I knew I was.
