บท 6: Chapter 6

“And you’re not dead yet,” Jason said. “It’s nice to see you still have your morning wood.”

Howard started to cover himself, but instead said, “Well, it’s nothing you haven’t seen before. Will you come in please? My morning wood is not something the neighbors are familiar with.”

“Their loss,” Jason said with a wink, stepping into the house and closing the door behind him.

Howard started to reply, but wasn’t sure if Jason had just complimented him. He looked at Jason, trying to read his face, and then finally asked, “Are the kids okay?”

“They’re fine,” Jason said. “I spoke to them both last night, and they’re doing well. They’ll be home this weekend.”

“What? Why?”

“To celebrate with us, of course,” Jason said.
