At The Woodsy Lodge!

Tammi Lyn hasn't seen much of her mother since they arrived at the Woodsy Lodge!  It is a very nice place and she has been enjoying her time there.  She is waiting in the main hall called the " Den" and is hoping to catch  up with her mother so that they can spend some time together.  She order a cocoa and the waitress as just returned with it. 

Waitress: Here you are!

I will return with your thermos for the slopes!
Tammi: Thank You!

Tammi: Wow!  This is really good! 

Tammi enjoys the hustle and bustle of the people coming and going.

She spots her mom. 
Tammi: Hey mom, over here!  Come and sit with me!

Her mother comes over and notices that Tammi has taken off the new boots she purchased for her.
Cindy:  Why aren't you wearing the boots?

Tammi: I am still getting use to wearing heel.  I took them off to give my feet a break.  I do like them.
Cindy: They are what all the girls your age are wearing!

Tammi:  I was hoping that we could do something together today.  Maybe we could go skating.
Cindy: I'm sorry I've been so busy honey.  I have been meeting Paulo's friends and some of his clients.  I'm having dinner with him and some of his clients tonight but I think we can go skating.

Cindy: That is a nice sweater!
Tammi: Daddy sent it to me.  Tammi notice a look on her mother's face and then it pasted
Cindy: This vacation is like a dream!  All of Paulo's friends and clients seem to like me and we have become close.
Tammi is not sure what to say. She is not sure of what she thinks of  him.   She says something safe.
Tammi: He seems to like nice places.

Cindy: I am so happy!  I have some exciting news to tell you!  You will never guess!

Cindy: Here comes Paulo, I'll let him tell it!  Tammi says hello as he walks their way.

Cindy: Paulo, Honey, I was just about to tell her the news!

Paulo: Oh that they open all the slopes.
Cindy: No silly, about the trip! Paulo is taking us to Estermaran!  You will need a pass port!

Tammi: is a little nervous.  She has never been out of the country.
Tammi: Wow!  That is news.  So when is the trip and are we staying long?  School starts back in 2 weeks?

Cindy: We will be gone for six months. Paulo's job takes him to the most interesting places. It will be like an eduction!

Cindy: Paulo will show us the world and you will be a better young lady because of it!  Not just some country bumkin.  Tammi smiled her nervous smile.  She didn't know what to think.

Tammi: Am I a bumkin?
Cindy: Not yet but you know what I mean!

Paulo couldn't believe what he just heard.  I didn't think we would bring the kid along with us!  This is not my idea of fun.

I know that this is a great opportunity but I do want to graduate on time.

Cindy: Don't worry about that!  We will all have a wonderful adventure!  You will see.

The women are still chatting when the waitress returns with the thermos.  Paulo thinks to himself.  She's got a nice body.
Waitress: Here is your thermos.

The waitress doesn't like the way that Paulo is looking at her. She thinks to herself ... Creep!

Waitress:  Miss, your cocoa.  Tammi takes the cocoa and leaves to see where this county is.

Cindy: I am so excited for us to be going with you! We are going to have a wonderful time and I will help you with your business clients!

Paulo: Yeah, well here is the thing, I don't think we were bringing your kid along with us!
Cindy: I'm her mother.  What did you think was going to happen.  I would just leave her with someone?

Paulo:Well Yeah!  Paul thinks to himself that she is a lot of fun in bed but she isn't that much fun!  He thinks it might be time to pull the cord before someone starts to call him dad.

Look, it seems this motherhood thing is kinda got you booked up.  Maybe now is not the time for us.  You think about it and let me know.

Cindy is worried!  She doesn't want to lose Paulo.  She thinks she see a future with him.  It will only be a few months.  Maybe she could leave her with someone.

Cindy smiles and calls Tammi's dad.
Cindy: I can still get him to do what I want him too!

Thanks For Looking!
