My private classes with Art have been non-problematic. I am pleased to say Art has been every bit of a proper student and I, his devoted professor. Except what should bring me some sense of relief and peace of mind doesn't. Everything is finally falling back into place. “ Lily pie, let's try some V.S. this time?” Mom says as we walk past it in the mall. “ No, and no. No one calls their adult child that. Mom..” I groan as she walks towards the shop anyway. Her eyes start to turn stary when she spots a soft blue lingerie set on display with cute sunflower yellow embroidery, turning to me with excitement as she points at it. Even though I am starting to regain a semblance of routine, that routine does not involve Micheal. We haven't been on any dates or seen each other lately becaus
