breasts. Her nipples were stiffened and straining against the sky blue material. She cursed them silently and yelled at him.
     
    “All of your moves have been wrong right from the start, when we were kids! Take me home right now! I don’t want anything to do with you! Nothing! What a pig you are!” she yelled and then turned on her heel and got back into the car, slamming the door behind her and glaring out her window so she wouldn’t have to look at him.
     
    He got into the car as well and zoomed quickly back down the mountain, clenching his teeth in anger. He pulled up to her house and she jumped out of his car and slammed the door shut again. He was gone down the road before she had taken two steps.
     
    Hot tears stung her eyes and she covered her mouth, looking up at the front door of the house in dismay. She knew her mother would want the details of her date, and she had no idea how she was going to explain it. She trembled and tried to take deep breaths to calm herself, and she quietly let herself into the house. Her father was sitting in a chair in the front room, a lamp on beside him and a book in his hand. His eyes went straight to her when she walked in and he immediately set the book down and walked to her.
     
    Samson enveloped her in a big warm hug and she finally let silent tears stream from her eyes and roll down her cheeks. She held her breath so that she would not sob and draw her mother’s attention. She didn’t see her mother in the room and she didn’t want to. Jillian looked up at her father and he touched his finger to his lips, indicating that they should be quiet.
     
    He led her out of the back of the house, through the garden and into his dojo. As soon as the screen closed behind her and they were alone, she let the sobs out and he held her as she cried in frustration, anger, and sorrow.
     
    He didn’t say a word to her until she calmed down and he dried the tears from her face. “Well,” he said softly, “I guess it didn’t go as nicely as we had hoped?”
     
    “He was horrible Daddy! He’s a disgusting pig and I don’t want anything to do with him.” She wept miserably.
     
    Her father looked stern. “Did he hurt you?” he asked.
     
    “He didn’t hurt me. He was unbelievably disrespectful, but I’m not hurt,” she said through her tears.
     
    Her dad held her close again and rubbed her back. “It’s alright, baby. It’s alright.”
     
    “Daddy, Mother wants me to date him. She told me to make a good impression on him so he’d want to see me again and I didn’t!” She looked up at him in consternation.
     
    He smiled down at her. “Oh now, you’re a good girl, Jillian. I’m sure it wasn’t that bad. What could you have done that would drive him so far away that he wouldn’t want to see you again?”
     
    She spoke quietly. “I slapped his face.”
     
    Samson raised one eyebrow. “You slapped his face? Well, if he pushed you that far, I know he must have deserved it. Don’t you think about it any longer, baby girl. You’re home and you are alright. Let it go, now.”
     
    “Mother is going to be furious if she finds out,” Jillian said, her eyes falling to her hands that were folded in her lap.
     
    “Well, just don’t tell her that part. I’m proud of you anyway. I’m glad you think enough of yourself to stop a man when he goes too far.” Samson smiled at her. “You’re a strong woman. It’s one of your best traits. You know you get that from your mother,” he said with a wink and a smile.
     
    Jillian rolled her eyes and sighed, letting out the last of her grief from the evening. She had cried herself tired. “Well, I’m going to sneak off to bed so I don’t have to talk to her about it until tomorrow. Maybe I’ll dream up a good story tonight that I can tell her later. She just doesn’t understand me! You’re the only one who really gets me, Daddy. You’re the only one who is even a little bit like me.” She reached over and set her
