CHAPTER SIXTEEN

Jane went back to the kitchen and took a seat. “Okay, you can start your interrogation.”

Helen laughed. “Erin seems very nice.”

“I just worry about her occupation,” Bill said quickly. “As a police officer she has to be aggressive. She’s not aggressive with you, is she?”

Jane laughed. “Erin is the sweetest woman I’ve ever met.”

“How long have you been seeing her?” Helen asked.

“About a month, but I wasn’t ready to start dating her until about a week ago.”

“And you’re already sleeping with her?” Helen said sounding critical. “I’m sorry.” Her eyes blinked rapidly. “I didn’t mean to say it that way.”

“Mom, you might think we jumped into bed too soon, but I was already in love with Erin. More importantly, Erin was in love with me, too-- is in love with me,” she corrected. Jane never thought she would ever have to justify loving someone to her parents. She always thought that she would spend the rest of her life alone. “Can’t you just be happy for me?” Jane asked as her voice broke with emotion.

“Of course we’re happy for you, Jane. We’ve always wanted you to be happy. Your father and I are glad that you have someone in your life.” Helen looked at her daughter. “Were there other women in your life before Erin?”

Jane glanced at Abby knowing at least she didn’t divulge all her secrets. “No, Mom.”

“So Erin is the first woman you’ve ever been with?”

Jane nodded, but didn’t respond. How could she tell her parents that Erin was the first woman to kiss her, the first woman to ever touch her? No, she couldn’t say the words.

“So this might be just a summer fling,” Helen added.

“No, Mom, this is not a summer fling. I found the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with. I don’t want to be with anyone else,” Jane sighed loudly, “is that too hard to understand?”

“Don’t you want to see who else is out there?” Helen asked cautiously.

“No, Mother, I don’t. Erin has been dating women since she was sixteen years old. I’m only the second woman she’s fallen in love with.”

“What happened to the other woman?” Bill asked quickly.

“She left Erin for a job up north.”

“Is that what she told you?”

“Yes.”

Helen believed there had to be more to this story then what Jane was telling her.

“So you don’t object to me being with a woman?” Jane sighed sadly. “You just want me to play the field instead of being with the best woman out there. You want me to give up a woman who treats me with respect? Who makes me laugh? That’s what you want me to do?”

“Well,” Helen said. “What about her family? What education does she have?”

“I’ve heard enough.” Jane went up the stairs and started packing an overnight bag. Then she picked up her phone. “Can you pick me up?”

“Are you okay?” Erin asked hearing that Jane was crying.

“I will be.”

“I’ll be there in a few minutes.”

Jane was waiting on the porch for Erin when her grandmother came outside.
