A Neglected Boy "The Twins" 111
"Day Seven"
A fictional story by Jacob R. Lion
Told by Jake

**A note to my readers about "Chapter Numbers" --After `the-twins-105, I
began using Chapter `Titles' ... that was a mistake. Please think of "The
Quest = 106, A phone Call = 107, Visitors = 108, Defensive Maneuver = 109,
and Nightly News = 110. ... This chapter correctly posted by Nifty in the
adult-youth section is - A Neglected Boy the-twins-111. Thank you

Now the story continues..........  At the end of our last chapter ... Bin
was fast asleep and I decided to take a walk down to the rug-rats
bedroom. ... I'll just forget that part of the night and return my
bed. ... ... Yes, I was in a warm cuddly bed, just one problem, my brain
was slightly hyper thinking of all the things that needed to be organized
for the trip down to New Haven.  I'll just have to deal with a bus full of
teens and tweens.  Thankfully, Penny and Silence are no problem.

   I'm not sure how it happened but, somehow I fell into a very deep sleep
and I was dreaming.  It was just like a movie of a day long ago with Liam
when he was little ... I was taking some photos of Liam riding.  We stopped
and hitched Eric and Dusty.  It was a beautiful day as we walked around the
meadow, then over to the edge of the stream to watch the water as it
cascaded over the rocks falling to the pond below.  Liam walking close with
his hand in mine ... then he looked up, and with a twinkle in his eye said
. . . "Let's go down to the pond n go swimming."  I said . . .  "Fantastic
idea squirt let's go."  I already knew what Liam was up to.  Soon we were
back in the saddle on our way to the trail, when off in the distance, right
at the tree line, was that big black bear eating berries.  I told Liam I
imagined he'll spend the afternoon eating those berries then take a nap.
We continued on the trail and soon found ourselves in the lower meadow.
Today was much warmer.  We found a nice shady spot for Eric and Dusty
... Liam was off to explore as I pulled out our lunch in the shade near the
edge of the pond. ... I looked up to call Liam . . .  and who was already
in the water? . . . . .  Naked again!......................

   Something or somebody bumped me, and that was the end of the movie.  I
awoke with the aroma of Amaretto Coffee, surprise 3-boys and 2 dogs in bed.
I was laughing to myself ... how did Kyle and Justin crawl back in bed and
not wake me?  Or did they? ... Even more interesting was that Justin was
all wrapped around me, Bin and Kyle looked like they were tied in a knot,
and those two Whippets, Silence and Penny, at the bottom of the bed keeping
everyone's feet warm.

   I was awake; I was the only one that was awake, I think.  I thought I'd
just slip out of bed, slip into the bathroom ... pee, then slip into some
soft PJs, and join Ethan and Keith for a nice hot, quiet cup of coffee.
Sounded like a plan to me.

   There I was standing at the toilet with things in hand ... then, just
about the time a good stream was starting this little runt with a cute
face, and black hair was standing beside me. ... What happened? he's got a
good stream hitting the water in the toilet and my hose quit! ... Bin
looked up at me smiling from ear to ear. ... ... Ahhhh, finally I let go
... relief.  Bin never stopped smiling, he just watched me till I managed
to squeeze out the very last drop.

   I was standing there, a little embarrassed, looking at Bin looking at
me, or a part of me when the rug-rats barged in pushing Bin aside, and
began peeing. (drawing circles in the toilet water must be a morning game
for them.)  Watching the three amigos standing there naked peeing was
causing me to have a slight reaction, I needed to get back to the bedroom;
sooner than later!

     I was in my PJs and out of the bedroom before those little squirts
even got out of the bathroom. ... ... Ahhh Yes ... how soothing a good hot
cup of Amaretto Coffee is along with the sizzling sound, and aroma of bacon
in that old cast-iron skillet.  Hmmm, how old is that skillet? ... Ok, this
was my grandfather's farm, and I remember that pan cooking me lots of eggs
n bacon when I would visit. ... Why don't the eggs ever stick in that pan?

    Out of nowhere, and like lightning, 3 naked hombres tore through the
kitchen and galloped down the hallway toward their bedrooms.  I sat very
quietly sipping my coffee, after all that's nothing new and just reminded
me of Kori, Peter, and Liam when they were about that age. ... ... "Jake,
you think the brats will ever learn to put clothes on before running
through the kitchen" asked Keith ... ... Ethan was quick to answer Keith
before I could open my mouth..........  "So Keith, are you saying you don't
want Justin or Kyle running around `naked' anymore?  Or are you saying
their teaching Bin bad habits?  Keith gave Ethan the `death' look saying
... "Never mind Ethan n I wasn't talking to you anyway, you want me to add
blueberries to the pancake mix?" ... ... I was smiling as Keith changed the
subject and Ethan and I both know we all have no problem with the 3-amigos
in or out of clothes.  For that matter I don't care and rather enjoy it
when Keith and Ethan are not in any clothes.

   Bin was first to return to the kitchen.  I think he must have been a
little cold because he was in some of Justin's PJs, socks and slippers that
were big for such little feet.  He pulled his chair right against mine, and
as he sat gave me a big smile and a hug. ... ... Ok, it's been just seven
days that Bin has been with us, and although he hasn't learned to say much
in English he does know how to be understood. ... ... I had to chuckle at
how he got Keith's attention.

   Bin is almost always with Kyle and Justin, and learning so much, mostly
good I hope, but he also loves Ethan and Keith, and knows how to get their
attention.  As I said a minute ago he was sitting right up against me.  He
was watching me sip my coffee and looking at his glass, his empty glass,
when he spotted Keith looking at him he simply pointed to Keith, then his
glass, then the jug of milk then at his glass again.  I was smiling as
Keith picked up the milk and filled Bin's glass.

   Then Bin and I had a vocabulary speech/lesson as I tried to get him to
say "Keith milk please" ... Keith and please were hard words for Bin to
pronounce, and Keith sounded the same as when Justin says
Keith-Keif. Please is not any better because of the letter - l.

   The-`Twins' arrived.  It was very obvious that there had been or was an
ongoing disagreement.  There was no doubt about it when Kyle moved Justin's
chair over next to Bin ... then moved his chair right next to Ethan's
chair, sat down and folded his arms with a very `mad' face. ... Oh well,
such is life, we've seen the horses act like this too. ... Of course we
would never see Ethan and Keith behave in this manner.

   Bin looked at Justin then Kyle then at me.  His face quickly changed
from being happy and all smiles to very sad.  His eyes began to fill with
tears as he pushed away from our breakfast table.  Slowly, looking first at
Justin then at Kyle, he walked to the other side of the table stopping next
to Kyle. Very gently Bin leaned into Kyle and gave him a big hug followed
by a gentle and loving kiss on the cheek.

   Bin walked back around the table stopping next to Justin.  I thought he
was about to repeat that scene but, I was wrong.  Bin took Justin's hand
and tugged him off his chair dragging and pushing Justin over to
Kyle. Ethan and Keith, like me, were watching this unfold.  It was a little
comical, ... Bin is not very big but certainly a little powerhouse.

     There he stood looking first at Kyle then at Justin. ... Then Kyle
then Justin, then Kyle then Justin ... Kyle couldn't keep his `mad face'
any longer and started to laugh at the situation.  Well the dispute ended
with "The Twins" hugging.  Now the chairs moved again, and `The Three
Amigos' were sitting together with Bin in the middle.

   There were continuous smiles, laughs, and some kind of Engkorchi
chatter, that only Kyle, Bin, and Justin understood, while heaps of
blueberry pancakes and bacon hit our plates.  With the 3-munchkins filling
their mouths Keith, Ethan and I made plans to get everything ready and
loaded into the bus.

    ... the backdoor opened and closed, with the usual bang, as Penny and
Silence raced to greet Peter exclaiming "Whoa, I love blueberry pancakes n
bacon". ... Yes, Keith had more pancakes and bacon nice n warm in the oven.

   Peter wasted no time grabbing a chair.  Somethings about Peter will
never change and that is good.  The teenage Peter is alive and well in a
slightly older body.  Between bites of bacon and pancakes he let us know
everything for he, Lars, and Lukas was on the sled he pulled behind the
snowmobile and parked next to the bus.  It was the look he gave Keith and
Ethan that said there were certain items for the `squirts'.

   How to make the `teens' smile, ... I got up went to the board where we
hang all the keys and tossed the bus keys to Ethan.  That was step
1. ... Step 2 -- I told Ethan and Keith perhaps they could unplug the
engine warmer and start the bus; then load everything carefully in the
luggage compartment.  To make them really happy I said that Peter and I
would do the dishes and clean the kitchen. "Smiles" huge "Smiles".

   Plates were empty; teens disappeared out the back door with Penny and
Silence close behind.  To get rid of Kyle, Justin and Bin I let them know
their job was to pack for 3-days and take showers.  Did you ever know of a
9-year-old, and 2 eleven-year-old boys who liked to take a shower?
... These three were all smiles as they headed down the hall.

   Dishes and kitchen cleaned ... my phone buzzing a "Call from Kori".  I
answered asking Kori to hold on a minute while Peter said goodbye and was
out the backdoor. ... I was back on the call with Kori and the sound of
Kori's voice said he had some exciting news.

   "Jake, you know the Peabody Paleontology Museum is closed for renovation
right?" ... Yes Kori, you have mentioned it a few times. ... "Well Jake
listen to this; ... I've been able to arrange a day long visit for our
crew. The entire place is ours to explore.  I also asked one of the Chinese
students with a double major Paleontology and Archaeology to join us so he
can translate everything for Bin.

    Just listening to Kori's I'm all excited about this, and I know the
boys will go crazy about spending the day with dinosaurs. ... Kori
continued ... "Now Jake this Chinese boy is a sophomore, only 19 but looks
15 ... so, you will have to control yourself ... I expect you to be on your
best behavior." ... ... Thanks Kori, ... I could hear the chuckle in his
voice when he said that.  I think he best watch Ethan and Keith n not worry
about me.

   Kori was just about to say something else when ... I thought I heard the
bus ... `I heard the bus!' ... Kori I have to go I'll see you this
afternoon! ... "Dad, Dad! ... Ethan n Keif got the bus pulled up out
front."  I ran from the kitchen to the living room; Bin, Kyle, and Justin
were at the front door and they were right!  Looking out the front door the
bus was parked right in front of the house.

   I only asked Ethan and Keith if they could unplug the engine warmer and
start the bus.  I did not say anything about driving the bus!  I was
fuming! About to kill! ... ... Cold or not cold, snow or not, I was about
to read these two the riot act!

   My hands were on Kyle's shoulders and I was really irritated, I was just
about to push him aside, and walk out the door when something hit
me. ... ... There in front of me was `The Bus'.  It was parked perfectly on
the driveway between the front yard and the barn.  Whoever had been driving
had pulled the bus from alongside the storage end of the barn out into the
driveway, turned right up the driveway then carefully backed all the way
back and parked in front of the house. ... I couldn't have done a better
job.

   Kori and I are always saying how proud we are of Keith and Ethan.  How
responsible they are, how they love, and take care of the twins and
Bin. ... I gently moved Kyle aside and walked out on the front porch.  The
Three-amigos were standing next to me as Ethan and Keith walked around the
front of the bus.  I shouted ... Hey!  You guys did perfect ... Thanks!
... now come in and help these `brats' get their stuff loaded.

   Keith and Ethan were all smiles.  Penny and Silence were plowing snow
with their noses as they ran along beside the teens to the backdoor.
Chatter, lots of chatter.  Teens, tweens n whippets all talking at once; I
managed to get in a quick word that they needed to snack less and get the
rest of this stuff loaded. ... "Ok Dad, Yes Dad" ...  I called Peter to let
him know we were ready to go.

   It was 10 minutes later when Peter, Lars, and Lukas arrived and we were
ready to head up the drive.  There was just one little surprise as I shut
the door to the bus...... You see, Ethan was the one who pulled the bus out
from alongside the barn, and carefully backed down in front of the
house. ... ... I pointed at Keith, and then pointed at the driver seat
... OMG!

   Keith standing next to me and asked ... "Jake, are you telling me I can
drive the bus?" ... Yes Keith, you can drive it all the way to the road
... then I'll take over. ... ... Cheers from the peanut gallery!

   The trip to New Haven seemed to be very short ... it really wasn't any
shorter than any other time we have driven these roads.  I think it was the
conversations, the excitement about the birthday party along with Pizza at
Zeneli's and dinner at The Great Wall of China.  I can bet Bin will love
that.

    It was noon, and just 2-hours from the farm to when we pulled into the
driveway at the Judge's home and greeted by the Judge, Antonio, Kris, and
Kori.  The plan was to walk Silence and Penny then load back on the bus and
right over to Zeneli's Pizzeria.  This is a tour bus, plenty of seats and
this crew looked like they were on a special tour.  Henry was sitting
closest to me and chatting away ... sorry I have no idea what he was
saying.

   In the door at Zeneli's, Ethan and Keith were first.  That was the plan
so they could control some of the crew.  Then it was Justin, Lars, Kyle,
Bin, Lukas, Keith, Antonio, Kris, Peter, Henry, and then me.  Kori had
already arrived and was at our party table.  The restaurant was nearly
full.  Talking, everyone was talking.  I could hear all the chatter and
didn't understand a single word.

   Seated at the table, I sat to the left of Kori with Henry sitting on my
left, and Peter next to him.  The boys seemed to find just the right chair,
then for whatever reason someone would get up, and then changed with
someone on the other side of the table ... that happened a few times until
the garlic sticks and hot wings arrived.  How many hot wings can 14 people
devour in 10 minutes?  I don't know because before the 3 platters that were
on the table were empty 3 more arrived.

   Two Pepperoni, two sausage with double cheese, two spinach and mushroom,
and one 5 cheese pizza hit the table with sides of dipping sauce.  Henry
had thought of everything, and when we thought we couldn't possibly eat
another bite the Italian ice-cream was served.  There was no to-go box.

   I thought about the birthday party for tonight as we were walking back
to the bus.  Kori and I thought about all the pizza we just ate, and then
just hours later we'll be having Chinese buffet ... I think the thought
about being stuffed was more for the adults than the rest of the crew
... growing boys you know need to eat often, very often.  Anyway Kori had
booked the laser tag room at the game place for some combat fun and lots of
exercise.

   Kori decided it was best to leave his vehicle at Zeneli's, and he would
drive the bus ... funny how that worked out ... he knows just where the
game place is ... like I've never been there....  On the way the teams were
decided. All I'm saying is that my partner is Peter, and Kori's partner is
Henry, and the boys are fighting about who is on my team and who is on
Kori's team and Bin can't stop laughing.  I don't know if he understands
any of it.

    Two hours of playing GI Joe and I'm exhausted and joined Henry in the
snack room.  I guess we weren't in that bad of shape because only 15
minutes later the crew was whipped, and thirsty, and I swear I heard
someone say they were starving.  Drinks finished and a quick drive to
Henry's to change clothes, and walk the dogs.

   Arriving at The Great Wall of China seemed like we were at some special
event the way everyone was acting.  Now that I think of it we are having a
special event ... the Birthday Party.  Justin and Kyle have just turned 11
and we are celebrating their birthday, and adding one more.  With the
addition of Bin to the family, and not knowing when his birthday is, we all
decided to make today his birthday too ... he just doesn't know it; this is
a huge celebration.

   As we walked to the door it became obvious that Kyle and Justin were in
charge ... like this is their place.  Kori and I are in charge of one thing
... paying the bill.  Yes, we had the party room however first things first
... Justin and Kyle grabbed Bin's hand and went right for the `Fish Tank'
the new much larger fish tank.

   Thankfully there were no `floaters'.  Everyone knows, and remembers,
that on one of our visits Kyle and Justin announced in loud voices, to the
entire restaurant, there was a dead fish floating.  The `Granny' type owner
loves "The Twins"!

   The `three-amigos', along with Lars and Lukas, were pointing at the
different new things in the tank.  The rest of us made our way to the
tables in the party room.  I think we had all made at least 2 trips to the
buffet when Ethan, Keith, Antonio, and Kris headed right back toward the
buffet. ... How can they eat like that and stay so skinny?

   The teens returned and they weren't carrying plates.  Their arms were
loaded with birthday presents.  There were small, medium, and large
packages, and a bunch of birthday cards all stacked on the table against
the wall.  Seconds later a cute Chinese busboy carried in a large 3-layer
birthday cake decorated with their names, Kyle, Justin, Bin ... Happy
Birthday Boys!

   Justin and Kyle were all excited but part of their excitement was
because they had insisted that it was going to be Bin's birthday too.  For
me, Kori, Henry, and Peter what happened next was the best part of the
trip!

   Ethan and Keith began handing a package to Kyle, then Justin, then Bin.
Then another package to Justin, Kyle, and Bin; Bin looked a little confused
then took one of his packages and gave it to Kyle and the other of his
packages to Justin.  He had no idea that the presents were for him and
thought he was supposed to give a package to both Justin and Kyle.

   Justin tried to explain but Bin just didn't get it.  Keith was quick
enough to ask our cute busboy to explain to Bin in Chinese about birthdays
and presents.  OMG, Bin got so excited, he had the biggest smile I've ever
seen. The very next second he was in tears.

   Things stopped for a minute while the busboy talked to Bin.  Then the
reason as the busboy explained.  Bin wasn't sad he was overwhelmed with
what was happening.  He had never had a birthday, he didn't even know when
he was born, and he had never been given a gift.

   The busboy did a great job explaining to Bin about the party, and for
the next hour it was opening gifts and lots of laughs, there were toys,
clothes, games n puzzles ... just lots of fun and cake with vanilla and
chocolate ice cream.  Then the part where the 3-amigos had to get the
birthday spanks, one for each year and one to grown on. ... Giggles, n
laughs.

   The party was over.  Ethan, Keith, and Peter gathered the crew and
headed to the bus while Kori, Henry, and I paid the bill.  As we were about
to leave the busboy asked to speak with us ... ... "Sirs, please excuse me
but I wanted to tell you what Bin had told me, is that ok?"

   Right then my heart jumped, Kori was noticeably concerned as was Henry.
Kori asked the busboy to continue. ... "Bin doesn't know who you are.  He
only knows that you are nice and taking care of him and you give him things
to make him look good.  He said that some lady told him to be good and do
as he was told."

   We were only three steps out the door when Kori turned abruptly and
walked back inside.  Henry and I stood at the door as Kori spoke with the
owner asking who the busboy was, how old and if he was working tomorrow.
The next thing Henry and I knew was that Kim, the busboy, would be on the
Yale Museum tour with us.  I know Kori already has a student that will
interpret for Bin and made the mistake of saying that to Kori.

   Wow! ... Kori turned sharply, and in a slightly aggravated tone
... "Jake, I have a college student that will interpret facts to Bin in his
language he won't be acting as a Chinese speaking friend, Kim will be doing
that.  All that has happened in the past week has been for publicity, state
and federal government.  I can't imagine what Bin thinks.  Having Kim along
will give us the opportunity to let Bin know he's part of our family, he'll
never to have to go to someone else; he's not going to be sold." ... Why
did Kori just say that?

   Knowing Kori for so many years I knew it was best to just let things go
for now.  As we stepped up into the bus Kori sat directly in the driver's
seat. Twelve minutes later Kori picked up his car and I drove the bus to
Henry's house.  Kori pulled in a few minutes.  All the boys had made plans
for their sleeping arrangements mostly it was going to be a big sleepover
in the center part of the bus.  Peter was going to take one of the bunks in
the bunkhouse section, Henry, of course was home.  Kori and I with Silence
and Penny would be in our back bedroom.

   About 11-pm everything got quiet.  Kori finished taking a shower and
crawled into bed ... "Sorry Jake, I'm sorry I spoke to you like that."
... Do you want to talk about it Kori? ... I asked ... "Not now ... when we
get home." That was the end of the conversation ... lights out.

   Not more than an hour later I heard the bedroom door slide open.  A
small figure crawled up from the end of the bed carefully passing the
Whippets and sliding under the covers between me and Kori.  As usual, my
nightly routine at around 3-am got me up for a pee break.  I returned to
bed to find Bin in the center of the bed with Penny on one side and Silence
on the other.  Kori had been shoved the left edge of the bed, and I had
just enough room on the right side.

   Wake-up, bang-bang wake-up ... Peter and Henry were out in the center
part banging on a pan. "Let's go time for breakfast!" n that was Henry's
voice.  An hour later at 8:30 we were on the road heading for the
University dining hall.  Kori was in a much better mood, I wasn't! ... I'd
like to kill whoever thought this was a good time for breakfast at the
University dining hall.

   We entered the dining hall; everything was quiet ... that was until some
Korean kids, mostly girls, spotted `The Twins'. 9:15-am n K-pop music n
squealing girls ... dance routines just like a few months ago.  Seemed like
they were having fun just tons of fun our whole gang was laughing and
dancing ... what the hell is wrong with them it's 9:15-am!

   Breakfast over, back on bus, drive to Great Wall of China, pick up Kim,
and drive back to the University Peabody Museum, and begin our visit.  As
it turned out that was so perfect.  By the time we were back at the museum
Bin and Kim were best buddies.  Kori was right.  Having Kim along will be
our best chance to find out as much as we can about Bin, and for us to tell
him that he is a part of our family.

   It's funny how things can look.  The museum parking lot is huge and
usually packed.  Today there are just 2 cars belonging to the security team
and one long bus.

   We approached the side door and were greeted by our student interpreter
Jun-De, and a very grumpy, overweight security guard.  Kori, sometimes
surprises me knowing just how to turn things around ... he shook hands with
the security guard saying ... "Thank you for greeting us today, we know how
important your work is to the museum and university.  Please know the
curatorial staff always supports our security teams." ... Grumpy security
guard turned all smiles wishing our crew to have a great time.

   We entered "The Great Hall" ... there is no way to explain how huge and
beautiful this place is.  You really have to be here to enjoy the full
experience. ... Standing next to Bin, Jun-De began, and he was brilliant
explaining in English and then in Chinese each of the major dinosaurs.

   "Bin, this a Torosaurus and that means perforated lizard and they have
very large skulls. ... How amazing ... Kori was so right about this and the
best part was that Jun-De had everyone's attention.

   I did notice how the boys had paired up as we moved to the next
exhibited dinosaur, and then the description. ... "one of my favorites"
Jun-De said continuing ... "Deinonychus `the terrible claw' n you wouldn't
want to meet one." ... Then we were on to the next one the Edmontosaurus a
`duck-billed' dinosaur.  Henry, Kori, Peter, and I were at the back of the
group. Watching all the boys ... it looked as if Jun-De had them under a
spell.

https://peabody.yale.edu/explore/collections

   We continued from gallery to gallery stopping for snacks
mid-afternoon. Kori, and I caught the attention of Kim and we didn't find
out much more about Bin.  He lived in a small rural farming community; Bin
never went to school and like his brother worked almost every day in the
fields.  His only time off was when he, like other boys, were rented to
men. ... ...  Kori and I were relieved when Kim told us he was able to
explain to Bin that he is part of our family, and that Bin was excited to
know he now has good `Dads' and brothers.

   We finished our visit to the museum and thanked Jun-De, and our security
guard.  We were walking toward the bus when this little kid ran up between
me and Kori and grabbed our hands ... we walked along lifting and swinging
him off the ground listening to the sound of his laughter.

   We were on our way back to drop Kim at the restaurant when Keith and
Ethan suggested we invite him to join us for the BBQ. ... Great idea.  When
we arrived at the restaurant I went in with Kim and explained the
invitation.  No problem and he could spend the night if he wanted.

   As the grill was getting hot Henry announced swimsuits optional. ... Oh,
the questioning look on some faces, and smiles on other faces.  (Understand
that Henry is quite liberal, open-minded, and especially free of
traditional ideas)

   The race was on.  Antonio and Kris did their best racing against Justin
and Kyle nope, not even close. Kyle and Justin were naked and in the water
while Antonio n Kris were trying to pull off their socks; then they stood
and dove in the pool. ... Kori leaned over to me and whispered ... "Jake,
I'm not saying no if those two ever ask me again if they can join us in the
shower, how about you?" ... I was looking; I was beginning to sweat, I was
very happy to have loose fitting shorts on.  I looked at Kori as he was
adjusting his shorts ... I just smiled, I think he knew if I agreed with
him or not.

   One by one ... Lars, Lukas, Ethan, Keith, and then Bin holding hands
with Kim entered the pool. ... I think Kim found a little friend. ... Henry
tossed a medium size beach ball to Antonio then he tossed the end of a line
with a little net attached ... ahhh, water volleyball.  The boys were
having fun actually much more fun than just volleyball.

   Henry gave our Greek athletes a 5-minute warning to get ready for
dinner.  That 5 minutes was to allow `things' to return to normal,
non-erect conditions.  I think Henry has witnessed Kris and Antonio aroused
in the pool on a number of occasions.

   Burgers, Italian sweet sausage, chips, and ice-cold drinks were enjoyed
be all. ...Then a little more swimming and it was time for nighty-night.
The sleeping arrangements had changed.  Kris, Antonio, Ethan, and Keith
would be spending the night in the house.  Justin, Lars, Kyle, Lukas along
with Bin and Kim would be in the bus bunkroom and Peter in the center
lounge.

   Kori, Penny, Silence and I were in our bedroom.  It was no different
than any other night the 3-am pee call, and this time Silence wanted out
too.  As I walked through the bunkroom I realized that although there were
6 boys only 3 bunks were being used. ... Returning from my little trip out
with Silence I did notice that Bin was all wrapped around Kim.  Maybe that
was all that happened ... maybe not ... judging by the smile on Kim's face
I think a little more happened.

   Morning was breakfast in Henry's house then we were off to Mystic and
shopping before heading home to the farm ... but that's the next Chapter.

To be continued ... Mystic and shopping ...

If you have a minute please drop a line ... I enjoy reading your comments.
Stay safe... and be kind to animals.....
