It was a Friday afternoon and even though it's the day you'd like to leave work early, it never seemed to happen for me. On Fridays I like to make sure everything's done for the week. Plus set up for Monday, so I can walk in and be ready to go.
Finally, I was able to leave and it sure was good to walk through my front door. But something seemed not quite right; for one thing it was way too quiet. My husband Jack was usually so lovingly overjoyed to see me. Even he seemed too quiet as I kissed him and asked how his day was.
"It was pretty smooth, Karen. I even got to leave early."
"Well, I was hoping to do that, too, but it couldn't happen where I was."
"Amy got home early as well. In fact she was already home when I got here." "Where is she? I thought it seemed too quiet."
"In her room. Just go change and get comfortable because we need to have a little talk after supper. " It was then I noticed jack had already made spaghetti and a salad, so I went upstairs. At Amy's door, I knocked lightly and said, "you all right?"
"Yeah, I'm fine."
"Anything I should know about?"
"I'm sure Dad will tell you."
Well, Jack wasn't talking and Amy wasn't talking. Now I'm really curious. Took a quick shower and just slipped on my short robe, tying the belt in front in a knot. Supper was very good. I mean, the food was very good. The conversation was nil, and the atmosphere was practically electric. After we eat, everyone chips in to load the dishwasher and clean up the kitchen. Then Jack quietly said, "You two meet me in the family room." Amy went to the bathroom; I finished wiping off the counter.
When I walked into the family room, Jack was sitting on the couch, Amy on the chair, so I sat on the love seat. Jack quietly said, "I came home from work early and Amy was already here. Amy, you tell Mom your part of the story."
Amy looked like she'd rather crawl into a cave and hide but she just quietly said, "I had final exams all morning, but didn't have any in the afternoon. Well, Jimmy didn't have any in the afternoon either, so he said he'd drive me home." She paused but Jack and I just waited for her to restart.
"Once we got here, I asked Jimmy if he wanted to come in. Well, no one else was home and we were in the kitchen. Jimmy started kissing me and playing with my privates, you know, up under my skirt. I told him to stop cos I wasn't supposed to do anything like that. That's the way you get in trouble and get pregnant. Then he said but now he had a raging hard on and it's all my fault. So I gotta do something about it.
