Chapter Twenty Five

The night's dinner was uneventful. With Michael helping her mom make pizza, Denise spent the time with John in his room reminiscing about what the day had brought. After their discussions they sat together eating pizza, laughing, and joking as though no disaster loomed over them, and their tomorrow would not bring about an impending catastrophe.

Again her mom offered Michael the couch, this time he gladly accepted with the condition that the boy stay in Brianna's room and not the boys. With her mom believing he was autistic and not a threat to her own daughter's virtue she had no problem agreeing to the terms.

The night ended with popcorn and a movie before everyone headed off to sleep. Making his way to his room John placed the ear buds over his ears and said. "Night Beast man, Niece, mom."

"Night." Denise said as her mom responded. "You know you keep wearing those damn things going to bed, and you're going to end up deaf by the time you're twenty."
