2390 Eagle
I was home trying to calm myself. The director I had to deal with was driving me crazy! The phone was ringing off the hook . I ignored the phone and Instead of the fruit juice, which I should have been downing , I choose something from the hard liquor side of my bar. I downed three of them one after the other. Then I helped myself the water. Of course I know it should have been the other way around. Who cares now, it's over. That's when I realized there was someone banging on my door. The last thing I needed tonight was company . I answered it. Sarah was standing on my mat. Normally I would have been happy to see her, not tonight. She looked upset so I opened the door. She gave me a punch to the Stomach. She spends plenty of her time pounding metal to shape it into something artful so she had plenty behind that punch. I swear, if I had eaten before hand it would have been all over the floor. Not wanting my neighbors hearing or recording for prosperity any thing that might occur , I helped her into the house. ( I yanked her). Led her to a chair, I knew I didn't want to be close to her now. Then I went to the bar and poured another drink , and handed her water. I could tell that she was barely holding her self together. I stood over by the bar. Ok, what's wrong? I asked and she started to tell me. She asked about a house and did I go there. Easy one yes . She went on to ask and I saved her the trouble yes people have sex there if they want to . I have yes and then She asked if I had been having sex with her baby! No , I said I don't even know your daughter . She was loosing it. She pulled a picture out of her pocket and held it in front of my face as she told me this was her daughter. I managed to take hold of it and take a good look at it. I almost told her about my bad day but, decided that her's just might be worse than mine. Yes it might be . No, it is her. But I didn't know ..Then she was screaming again . There was a knock at the door and I went to see who it was. There was no way I was going to open that door. Sarah grabbed the picture from me and opened the door to leave . She stood looking at Henry for a brief moment, then she took his arm . The look he gave me well , does the expression if looks could kill have meaning for you. They left. I shut and locked the door. I went straight to my shower and stepped in clothes and all. What in the name of heaven had I been thinking, a teenager? As I stood there I thought about look a likes and realized that The other woman must have been Marijuana. It was and is unreal!
