She invited the animal to sit beside her on the bed. She stroked his big head and talked
quietly to him. It occurred to her that Jay must have sent Friar in to her calm her. Even
with that recommendation, Friar was welcome. In fact the gesture softened Su-Ann's
attitude toward her sister-in-law. Maybe she wasn't such an ogre after all. Despite the
fact that she had seduced her own brother. Su-Ann was sure that Jay had seduced
Kenny and not the other way around. Kenny was too much of a prude at heart to let
himself indulge in such depravity without encouragement.
The blonde had shut herself into her room in self-defense. She had a lot of thinking to
do, and she didn't think she'd ever sort things out if she let Chad and Jay influence her.
She couldn't help blaming them for Kenny's disappearance. It would take a while for
her to admit that she and her husband had been as much at fault as they were. No one
had held a gun to their heads.
It occurred to her that perhaps her young husband would never come back. The
thought panicked her a little, though she knew she could always go back to San Diego
and return to her old job at the construction company. She hoped, though, that it
wouldn't all end like this - without her even once being able to talk things over with
Kenny.
Not knowing which way to turn, Su-Ann felt by instinct that the best thing to do was
just to stay in her room. Until she was ready to face the world again.
Already she felt a lot better. Just having Friar's big head resting against her knee helped
a lot.
Su-Ann had dipped into Kenny's private bottle of scotch. She took a drink from time to
time. It helped lighten her spirits. It made all the hurt go away. Like magic.
