A Night In Daddy's Bed
The higher you soared, the harder the fall.
It was Friday, and I had been sitting in Bryce’s office.
He was built like a block, solid, almost square with heavy shoulders and a thick bull neck. He looked far more like a retired boxer than a brain surgeon.
Bryce motioned for me to sit on the examination table, then rolled up his sleeves. His forearms were thick and tanned—the kind that explained how he could fire a tennis ball like an Exocet missile. Playing tennis with Bryce had always been eighty percent pain. Everything he hit came back like a weapon, aimed straight at your body. Even with an open court, he still tried to blast the ball through you.
