    “You are right, Gail. Okay, son, I’m sorry I hit you. It won’t happen again. I love you and I know you are at such a loss for the most perfect and loving mother. Will you let me hug you? You are my precious son. The son I always admired.” He reached out his arms and Bill let him enfolded him. “I’m sorry Dad, It just gets me to see you so happy while I am still grieving.”
    “I am also grieving. I understand.”
    Tears were stinging both their eyes as they released their hold on each other. “I will try to understand. It is hard, but I will try to understand. I am also sorry. Forgive me.” Gail took Bill by the hand and together they went upstairs to their living quarters.
    The next morning while Gail was fixing Jimmy’s breakfast she said,
    “Did your friend, Anna, cook dinner for you, Dad?”
    “Yes.”
    “What did she cook?”
    “Vegetable beef soup.”
    “Was it good? Did you like it?”
    “Yes, I did. She is a very good cook and so are you, I appreciate everything you do for me. I just want you to know that.”
    “I think I will like her. If you like her than I will, too. Bill will come around. It will just take time. He had to leave early this morning for work. They have an auditor coming in to check the books this week at the Finance Company. He said he might be late in getting home, too. He does work hard. It’s hard dealing with the public, especially where their money is concerned.”
    “Yes, I know. He is a good son. I need to be more patient with him. Thank you for understanding about my friend, Anna. Your opinion means a lot to me.”
     

Chapter Five  
    They made arrangements that they would met at the community center. They arrived at the same time. Anna showed Jimmy where the men’s dressing room was located and she went to the ladies dressing room. He was ready and waiting for her to come out. When she did, Jimmy had to take a hard swallow. In her one piece red bathing suit, she was more alluring then he realized.
    “You’re looking good, Jimmy.”
    “A fine thing for you to say while you still have your young girl figure.”
    They smiled at each other; so happy to spend this day together. Jimmy reached his hand out to her to keep her from slipping. “It is slippery here with the young people splashing water.” She took his hand and it felt so good to have a man looking out for her again. “Don’t forget, we are going to eat at the fish house after our swim.”
    “I couldn’t forget that. I am looking forward to it.”
    “Okay, let’s hit the cold water.” Still holding hands, they entered the pool. “Can you swim, Anna?”
    “Yes, maybe not as good as you, but I won’t drown. You won’t have to save me.” At that she let go of his hand and hit the water; swimming. He took off. It felt so good being in a pool again. He was swimming back and forth with such strength that she decided to hold onto the side of the pool and watch him. When he came up to her, she said, “Wow, it’s no wonder you love to swim. You are so good at it. I love watching you.”
    After they swam for an hour, they decided to call it a day of swimming. “I want to show you inside the building. Let’s get dressed and we will see what is going on inside.” He was surprised to see all the exercise equipment. “I didn’t know this was here. Do you exercise here?”
    “Yes, I walk three days as you know and two days, I come here and exercise.”
    “So now I know how you keep your girlish figure.”
    “That’s my secret.”
    “Let’s go to my house for me to change for dinner. You brought a change of clothes?”
    “Yes, let’s go.”
    When they entered her house, Anna thought, if he doesn’t come to me then I will go to him. Neither Anna or Jimmy could not hold back their passion any longer. It hit them at the same time. They reached out to each other with animal lust. Their first kiss ignited a fire in both of them not to be denied this time. With their arms holding on to each
