She would probably reach the bayou soon and swim across the narrow Redwater Lake to finally reach the other side and there she would find someone she knew and head straight home. The only flaw in the plan was, she was scared of heights (assuming the window was located on the second floor) and she once almost drowned in a swimming pool with the same depth as her height. Setting her lips into a straight line with a flat tone, Eira enquired, “When will Josh return?” Nate shifted his attention to her and tossed the phone on the bed casually, “Soon."

He kept ducking under the low-hanging light fixture in the living room and looking around like he'd landed on an alien planet.

She just gave birth yesterday."

I didn't turn off the light this time for fear of having another sex session in my dreams. Chris caused this.
