When my anger rose with my mom again, we sat and talked. Counseling taught us to stop bottling it all up and to release it immediately. We didn’t let it fester because that just prevented healing.

Bailey had taken it all in stride. I didn’t know if her age hindered her or whether she simply accepted the tragedy with poise and an understanding beyond her years. She just seemed to get that her daddy had an accident and passed away. She was right. It was as simple as that. My father was in a horrible car accident and had to leave his family. He didn’t want to, but it happened. All we could do was keep breathing and living and accept it as a part of our lives.

Once Mom and I began to pull our lives back together, Bailey’s speech impediment miraculously began to fix itself. Funny how those things worked. It wasn’t my dad’s death causing her stress—it was Mom and I.

Delilah was having a hard time with my new insight. She said it didn’t pertain to her and Kenny. She just repeated that she knew Kenny best and insisted we drop the subject.

Bailey went right back to her relationship with Mom. Once I was on board with Mom being in charge, she followed suit. Mom never tried the whole curfew thing with me or tried to become an overbearing, controlling parent. Yet again, I never gave her reason to. I remained levelheaded and concentrated on finishing high school and getting into college with boxing.

Mom was extremely pleased with our finances and the decisions I had made for her. She was shocked not only with how deeply she’d hidden in a cave, but also with how I’d learned to stay on a budget and not touch investments. I had allotted a modest amount of money each month for us to live off, and because of it, my mom didn’t have to rush to work once she was on her feet again.

With her doing so well, I was able to find a gym and begin boxing again. Delilah couldn’t believe how much training it took to stay in top shape. Between boxing and finishing house repairs before I planned to leave for college, I didn’t have much time for Lilah, and she missed me, so she began to join me on my daily run. Nothing said good morning like Lilah in spandex running pants. Damn! The new distracting topic of conversation was not helping me either: sex.

I refused to push the issue and never asked for more than Delilah offered or requested. Maybe that was why Delilah was hinting around at being ready for our next physical level.

God bless her! No way in hell was our first time together not going to be special for her. I threw ideas around in my noggin until it hit me: Delilah had once shown me a rundown old country barn that she, for some reason I could not fathom, loved. The decrepit barn was abandoned, private, and perfect.
