Chapter Thirty Four

Sidney was wearing grey trousers and a yellow top the hour she met with her mother’s husband, Parker. She had gone upstairs to change again when her mother told her that what she was wearing for dinner was not appropriate enough.

She had come back dressed we'll, better than before and her mother had nodded in approval. Just then, a car had honked and they heard the car drove in.

"That must be my husband." Her mother had told her, and she had rushed to the window. She drew the curtain back to confirm what she had said, and when she did, she had gone to meet him at the front door with a wide smile on her face.

Sidney sat there, waiting for him to come inside so that she could meet him. It was the first time she was going to meet him physically, and she wanted to have a good chance at seeing him from a neutral perspective.

Parker was a handsome man. He was tall and had a broad shoulders. He looked pretty young and good looking for his age.
