Then after a few moments she added, “This has never happened before.”
I could hear mom’s voice but there was no response from dad. “Yes, yes I understand,” I said as I realized I had crossed a line. Xxnx I sniffed of my finger. I feel more comfortable in your arms. I suspected I daren’t say a word so I kept my silence. She dreamily mumbled, “Huh uh.” I removed my hand and slipped her over onto my pillow and moved slowly down in bed. We could still hear voices but there was no more yelling. Summer on the farm could be busy for everyone. She was not wet like she had been the last time
I was startled when she asked, “What do you think you are doing?” I jerked my hand back and threw myself back against the wall next to my bed.
