    Mary came bursting through the door at home. “Liz! Liz are you sleeping?” “How could I be with all that shouting? Jeopardy's on, so shut up!” Mary walked through the entry hall in the front of the house into the kitchen and threw her bags on the farmhouse table.“Oh, who cares about Jeopardy? I've got big news!” She was mindlessly flipping through the mail, discarding junk, and adding to the bill pile at the end of the table that served as her home office. “Two minutes, Final Jeopardy is on.” Done with the mail, Mary went through the dining room and down the short hall to the bedrooms. She pulled off her parka, put it in the coat closet and continued till she got to Liz's room. She leaned against the jamb with her arms crossed. “What is the Count of Monte Cristo?” “Son of a bitch Mary, I was just about to say that.” “Yeah, sure you were.” Mary laughed. Liz muted the T.V. “Well now that you've ruined Jeopardy for me, what's this big news you have?” “Well... I had a date tonight.” “Shut up!” Liz said in mock indignation. “Why didn't you tell me you had a date?” “Because I made the date this morning.” “So I assume that your phone is broken. When are you going to get a new one?” “No, my phone isn't broken, sorry I didn't call.” Liz rolled herself to her side and looked at Mary. “Well shit little sister, it must have gone well. You are absolutely beaming!” Mary took the few steps it took to get to the bed and sat down on the side. “Before we get into that, tell me how was your ...

In Mary's eyes Tess was an angel sent from heaven above. She was the person that had made it possible for Mary to become Liz's sister again. “She left around six. She had to go and get her niece from daycare.” “That's fine. You're on schedule with your meds?” “Yep, she gave me the last shot for the day before she left. I just need my PM pills tonight, but she left them on the nightstand. I'm all set. So you've put me off long enough. Spill.” “Scooch over.” Liz wiggled over to one side of the bed and Mary laid down next to her. This was her most favorite time with her sister, cuddled together in the same bed, just like when they were kids. “His name is Joe Ferguson. He's working up at the new bridge project in Chester. He's a bit older than me, forty-five. He's tall, dark and handsome. He's got a good build, muscular, got a little bit of grey in his hair. You know, the George Clooney sexy hair. He's got beautiful grey eyes and he's a really nice guy.” “So did he ask you out?” “No, I asked him out!” “Well isn't this a day of surprises. My sister has grown a set!” “I know!” “I don't know if I believe you. Really, you asked him out?” “Yep, when he came in this morning for coffee, he said that I looked really nice. I remarked that I had dressed up for him. He was obviously stunned by my beauty. I, ...
