Awakenings Ch. 25

... quietly said, "I was at least partially responsible for that serious dispute." Shaking my head, I said, "No, Jodie, your mother and I are adults. We're responsible for the choices we..." Jeanne interrupted. "No, I was responsible. Michael, I was the one who chose to hide my burgeoning sexual desires from you." "Mom, you wanted to tell dad. I asked you not to do it. Dad, I was ashamed. I didn't want you to know how adventurous I'd become." Tricia laughed. "Adventurous, that's a euphemism if I've ever heard one." "Shut up Tricia, you're even worse than I am." "Girls, neither of you are bad and Tricia, I think adventurous is a good way to describe our lifestyles." Jeanne was trying to keep the conversation civil. There was an awkward silence. After a moment Jeanne whispered, "Michael, don't leave them hanging. You need to say something." I wasn't deliberately evading the issue, I was just trying to figure out what to say. Realizing that Jeanne was right, I took a deep breath and said, "Girls, I'm not sure how I would have reacted if I'd learned about all of this last summer." Chuckling, I quickly added, "No, that's not true. I do know how I would have reacted. I remember how devastated I felt after I talked to the two of you on the telephone the morning after your mother's date with Derek Fischer."

That's why we feel like we should have tried harder to help you understand." "Many people, especially older people don't adapt to change easily. The process can be difficult, even painful. I needed the time. I think your mother did too. I was also fortunate. I met Amy and Mel. You're my daughters. Sex is a difficult subject for fathers and daughters. When I met Amy and Mel I didn't have an emotional connection with them. That made it much easier for me to learn from them." "Your father is right. Amy and Mel were a godsend for us. We were starting to work things out in San Francisco, but Amy and Mel definitely helped speed the process." "They did help me. Now I'm ready to accept all of your lifestyles. You're still my daughters. I don't think I'll ever want to hear the details of your adventures, but you don't have to hide them from me." Jodie said, "Thank you, daddy." Tricia said, "Daddy, a friend of mine told me there's an air force base in San Antonio. She said that this week the city is going to be crawling with horny air force guys on passes. Would you mind if Jodie and I hooked up with a couple of them?" "You're adults. You don't ...
