Chapter Five

“This is where you wanted to bring me?” A retirement home was not even close to the places he had imagined Janea would take him.

She was a bit hurt by his tone of voice. “I know it’s not what you are used to, but these folks are my friends.”

There seemed to be some type of carnival set up in the parking lot. He wasn’t sure, but there appeared to be games and rides. Old and young were milling around, playing the games, and eating some pink and blue confection. The younger ones seemed to wear more than they ate.

He simply stood back and watched in amazement as Janea was welcomed with hugs and kisses from the residents and staff. She was obviously a regular and that surprised him. He watched her interact with the people she considered friends, much older friends. Knowing what he did about her, he would say she was creating a family of her own. The older folks filled her need for grandparents.

They spent the entire afternoon at the facility. Makil even got into the spirit of the games by winning a stuffed animal for Janea and learning to spin the pink and blue confection that he learned was cotton candy. It was a very sweet job, he discovered later when he was covered with the sugary confection from the top of his head all the way to his Italian leather shoes.

He overheard one of the staff members thanking Janea for the carnival. She must have used some of the money to provide this treat for her friends. She’d surprised him again. As great as her need for money was that she chose to spend a good portion on providing for her friends humbled him.

Later as they were walking back to his limousine, he asked her about it. He needed to understand why she did it. “Did you arrange all this?”

“Yeah,” she answered, embarrassed he knew. “I came into some money recently, and I wanted to do something nice for them. They miss their families. It helped to have something fun to invite their children and grandchildren to. It was the best of both worlds. They got to have fun playing games and visiting with their families.”

He kissed the tip of her nose and pulled her close, “You are a most remarkable woman, Janea.”

She leaned into him, fitting her body against his. “Can we go back to your room now?”

He saw in her eyes what her body was telling him. “Yes.” He swallowed. “Oh yes.” And picked up the pace back to the limo.

The rest of the weekend was spent in much the same way, just in different parts of the suite. The only time they came up for air was to eat and sleep. They both knew the weekend was special, and Jane knew that it would likely be the last she would see of him.

For a fraction of a second she wished he would have planted his seed inside her belly to have a precious memory of their time together.
