extended family?”
    Ben stopped their walk, grabbed Cam’s hand and looked her eye to eye and said, “I. Have. Never. Been. More. Sure. Of. Anything.”
    Camille gave an embarrassed chuckle and raised to her tip toes and kissed Ben gently on his lips and said, “Yes, I would love to meet them.”
    They then, proceeded back to her apartment completing the two-mile journey in forty-five minutes. It wasn’t lost on Ben, that – that was their best time yet. He also cleared his thoughts of what his body wanted to do, after that wet kiss Camille bestowed upon him. Things were heating up for them.

    Kevin and Paige (Kevin’s Downtown Condo)
    “Paige I am trying to understand why I had to convince my MOTHER of all people, not to press charges against my girlfriend. Please give me something that can help me understand what would cause you to freaking, flip out like that.”
    Paige who was sitting on his couch, did not speak or look Kevin’s way. Kevin, who was close to the edge of losing it on her, continued to question her.
    “Who assaults their future mother-in-law?” Kevin pleaded with a stubborn Paige, who sat on the couch staring into space like a zombie. That was until the last phrase was yelled into her face by Kevin.
    Paige whipped her head around. She looked to Kevin like the girl from the exorcist, as fast as it twirled in his direction. He braced himself for her hood persona.
    “Kevin, what do you mean future mother-in-law? I do not have a ring on my finger and the way your mommy dearest treats me and you and your father allow her to. I don’t know that I want a ring from YOUR SPINELESS ASS!”
    Kevin throws his hands up thinking, here we go, and Paige from the hood is out. He asked her as calmly as he could, “why profanity Paige?”
    “Why Profanity?” Paige screamed until her voice became hoarse. “Because there are no dignified words to articulate how fed up I am of you trying to get me to be a door mat for your raggedy momma.” Paige was up, standing toe to toe with Kevin. “That so called lady of ‘sophistication’.” Paige made quotations marks with her hands as she said “sophistication,” had the nerve to tell me I was not good enough for you. You want to know why?”
    Kevin was sure that was a rhetorical question, he remained quiet.
    “I am not good enough for you, because I came from a drug addicted whore. She went on to say that whore, which is my mother mind you, did not have enough sense not to overdose on heroin. Then the great Mrs. Michelson told me the apple has not fallen far from the tree. That I am nothing more than a gold digging whore like my pathetic mother. To follow up those insults, she spits in my face. So tell me Mr. D.A., how do I respond to that?
    Kevin, knew that too was rhetorical. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and try with all his might to keep his anger in check. He had no clue his mother could be so cruel. He wanted to reach out and comfort Paige and tell her it was ok to stop this closing argument in her defense. Shamefully, he had lost the ability to speak or move, so he just stood, listening.
    “I will tell you how I responded! I put my foot up her.” Paige caught herself before more profanity slipped out. “Let me say the appropriate word for you, derriere. I wanted to physically kick her into the next century. Then I proceeded to snatch every extension out of her bald head. I slapped her so hard, her fake eyelashes went flying across the room. I grabbed her by the neck, making that Tiffany of New York necklace snap and I would have choked the very life out of her, had you and Mr. Michelson not come in. I was Hell bent, excuse me. I was determined to allow her to make acquaintance with my whore of a mother in Hell! Where she was surely on her way. Now, you still want to give me a ring?” Paige asked sarcastically.
    Kevin stood there stunned and speechless. “Oh wow, Mr. District Attorney,” Paige sneered. “No Rebuttal, well there is
