Chapter 25I will be coming home this weekend; are you free? Maybe we can spend some time together?” “I will be finished soon and would enjoy spending the weekend with you.” I will be driving back to my rented apartment in Florence tomorrow. Give me a call when you arrive. Think about what you would like to do; I am up for anything. How is your father?” “He’s a lot better now; they have gotten his blood pressure under control. They adjusted his medication. Thanks for asking. See you on Saturday.” I laid back down on the bed, focusing my thoughts on Maria. “Before this goes any farther, I have to be honest with her about not wanting any more children or being married again.” Then thought again of the quote by Raymond Chandler. “There is no trap so deadly as the trap you set for yourself.”
