Chapter 3
Dinner was served and to say that there was sexual tension around the table would be a vast understatement. Sheila was sitting on one side of Matthew and Melinda was sitting on the other side. It made for some very interesting glances in his direction, although it didn’t appear that the rest of the family noticed what was going on.
Matthew shifted nervously, trying his best not to stare at the plunging neckline of the red summer dress that Sheila was now wearing. This was obviously her attempt to get his attention and he was doing everything he could to deny her that request. The virginal white dress that Melinda was wearing made him smile. The fact that she could even attempt to suggest that she was pure was laughable. The things that they had done that weekend were enough to make him want to have a repeat performance. The way that she moved like a cat served to feed his desire in a way that he couldn’t get from any other woman.
“Kenneth and I would like to make a toast to family. It is, so nice to have everybody underneath the same roof and to welcome new additions like my dear Kenneth and his daughter Melinda. I think we all know that my husband was the benchmark for this family, but now we are about to embark on a new chapter. My marriage might have been sudden, but his love was very evident from the moment that I met him on the beaches of St. Croix. I didn’t think that any man should be wearing thongs, but on him it worked.” There was a medley of snickers around the table and even Kenneth turned a bright shade of red at the mention of his privates on display.
“I really do appreciate how welcoming all of you have been to me and my daughter. We struggle to find that bond that has been broken. Maybe now with this new family we can heal those wounds that have been festering for way too long. I guess it goes without saying that my relationship with my wife was volatile. It’s not to say that I struck her, but we did get into a lot of arguments and most of it was about money. I was a freelance musician and she was always the one that was bringing home the bacon. Anyway, I believe that everybody has the right to start over and this is my time to finally get it right.” Kenneth was standing there and he could see that his daughter was not exactly happy with the way that he was speaking about her mother.
Everybody put out their glasses and there was the sound of clinking, which followed a meal that was fit for a king. Lobster and scallops were the order of the day, including shrimp and a medley of fresh fish that tasted like it just came out of the ocean and it did.
“Kenneth and I are going to go into town and enjoy the night life.
