    HD Chapter 7

    I burst out laughing at this news, shrugged my shoulders and returned to the office. Leaving the door open to listen to whatever was going to happen next. About twenty minutes later, I heard Grant groan, “Guys, can you put those things away before you poke someone in the eye with those monsters?” I heard my son say, before I heard him walking up the stairs. I just smiled and continued reading my emails and responding to some of them. Ten minutes later, there was a knock on my office door. “Hey.

    After the service and a light meal afterwards, we thanked Reverend Alex and his congregation for their support and prayers for the lads, and I said I would be encouraging the twins to keep in touch with their church. Back at the hotel, we sat down to talk some more, and I asked the lads how much longer they have of the school year. “Two more terms, we finish in early December, so about 16 weeks away,” Ashton replied. “Yes, but I am sure we would be able to get transferred to a school in Australi

    “Cheeky brat. I meant for you to remind me tomorrow when the timing is correct for both of us, not fifteen minutes after I asked you to remind me,” I replied, and Grant just laughed, waved goodnight and headed to bed. When we arrived in Cape Town early the following afternoon, I was starting to get an unsettled stomach, and for a while I was wondering if it was anything that I had eaten, then realised that it was just nervousness about meeting my half-brothers for the first time. We had en

    Although they are 17-years old and in their final year of schooling, which has been paid in full until the end of the school year, their home is only a rental and is only paid for until early October; in such time, all of their belongings will need to be vacated. As the nearest relative to the twins, we need instructions on what you would like to do regarding the future of the twins as well as their family’s belongings…” “Damnations, now what the hell am I supposed to do about that?” I said

    I sent a quick response to let them know that we had decided to stay overnight in Vancouver to recover from jet lag before we continue to their home, and that we were currently enjoying lunch at a nice little café near a large park on the edge of the city. Taking a quick photo of the view of the park from our outdoor café table, I attached it to the email before sending. It wasn’t long before I received another email from them. “Hi, we know that café very well, please say hi to the owners L

    Landing at Strahan, we had a good look around the small town and its surrounds before travelling by bus up to Queenstown, where we boarded the Tasmanian Wilderness Railway, which would take us back to Strahan, where we boarded the helicopter again and headed north to the town of Stanley. After a relaxing overnight stay in the small Northern coastal town, we climbed the famous hill called The Nut, electing to take the chairlift back down to ocean level, where we had an early light lunch, before w

    It has been a tough eighteen months since the passing of my dear wife, Joanna Margaret, who had passed away just five months after being diagnosed with Leukemia. She had known from the very beginning that I was bisexual. We had started dating when we were both attending university in Adelaide, and she had always accepted the occasional hookups that I had for my occasional male company needs. We had been married for eighteen years, and we have a sixteen-year-old son, Grant Lenox, who was devastat
