“ Terrence please don't bring that up. That was unreasonable of you to ask of me. I needed someone to talk too.”
“ Dana, our business is between us from now on. No one else. That even includes my sister. I know that's your friend as well as my sister but I do a lot for Tamera... a lot. I've totally paid for her tuition so she has a good start in life. Once she gets her degree the rest of it is up to her. There wont be any loans or borrowing none of that. I'm actually glad she met you because before you two met she'd changed her major twice. All wasted classes paid for by me.” I said frowning. “ All I'm saying is when I'm out it's just us two.”
Dana and I spent the remainder of the weekend in what was in every sense of the word our own personal bubble. The phone calls from the guards came as expected so that I could check in, and at ten on the dot they were knocking on the door to actually see me but otherwise we were left alone to enjoy each others company. To talk and get to know each other beyond the two hour visits that had steadily become a part of our routine the past six months.
