Chapter 78 Roxanne And Her Daddy

• Van Dyke did not come home that night. I fell asleep, a very troubled sleep, as I tossed and turned in the enormous bed, wishing he would come. But I also knew that he had friends like O’Grady and Delano, who would happily put him up for the night. Besides, I had already met Bianca Cruz, O’Grady’s common law wife, the young woman he 'shared’ with his brother.
• She had been feisty and not very enamoured of my Daddy.
• As I fed Xander his cereal that morning, I hummed and prepared bacon and eggs for myself and for Van Dyke.
