Life after the Lottery, CH 66

Upcoming business meeting

We all slept in on Sunday. We had been up late, having sex. The girls were all teasing me about the fake porn video they set up. Samantha and Amy kept at it until I ran them out of the bed to go start breakfast.

"You made it through your birthday," Dawn said as she lay in the bed.

"You three made it very enjoyable."

"Well, you better have all the sex you want this week, and this weekend, John is coming next Monday to do our piercings."

"Are all of you sure you want to do that?"

"We're sure. You better appreciate it."

"How long do I have to go without sex?" I asked.

"John said everything has to heal. Probably four to six weeks."

"That is going to be a long time."

"I think I have some traditional medicine that will speed things up. Should be ready to go by Thanksgiving."

"What is this going to cost me?" I asked.

"I think some very nice jewelry to fit our piercings will cover it."

"I can do that. What are we doing for Thanksgiving this year," I asked.

"I told my mom we were expecting them. You need to call your family and see what they want to do."

"I'll work on it."

"You need to make sure of who all is coming this weekend," Dawn said.

"Rachel is trying to make sure Linda doesn't back out. I'll double-check with Mr. Dain and call Olivia and Sam."

"What about Sherri, Brenda, and Lori?"

"I will ask them."

Dawn kissed me and got up and went to the shower. When she came back out drying off, the smell of breakfast cooking filling the bedroom.

"Get up and shower," Dawn said.

I left her in the bedroom and went and showered.

*****

I sat at the table with Dawn as the girls put the food on the table.

"Are you going to show your porn movie to everyone?" Amy asked when she sat down.

"Hell, yes! Can I show the one you three made for me?"

"No, that is just for you," Dawn said.

"I can live with that," I replied.

About 3:00 in the afternoon, we were all sitting in the hot tub. The weather had cooled off just enough to make the hot tub more enjoyable.

"Did either of you talk to Sherri and Brenda about this weekend?" I asked the girls.

"Not yet...we were busy last week, remember," Samantha said.

"I'm sure they will come," Amy added.

"Call and make sure. I am going to see if Lori wants to come," I told them.

"I don't know if three men will be enough," Dawn said, giggling.

"I think for a laid back weekend...I can work Ian and Sam in," I told them.

"You two, we will be calling our family to see what they want to do for Thanksgiving," Dawn said. "Is there anyone you want to invite?"

"I wish my mom could come..." Samantha mumbled.

"Would she come?" Dawn asked.

"No...she can't...we never had any good Thanksgivings."

"Samantha, why don't you and your sister make arrangments for a complete Thanksgiving dinner to be delivered to your mom and dad," I said.

"That sounds like a good idea!" Samantha exclaimed.

"I'm sure there are plenty of places where your parents live that will do that," Dawn added.

"Mom would like that," Amy said.

"You two do that, but don't wait too long to get an order in," Dawn told them.

After we got out of the hot tub, Samantha and Amy were busy looking on the internet for someone to deliver a Thanksgiving dinner to their parents. That kept them occupied while Dawn and I talked.

"James, is there anything we can do for their parents?" Dawn asked.

"I have talked to Samantha about it, and she says that any money her dad finds out about will get spent on boozes or blown. Amy is sending their mom enough to help her out."

"That is a bad situation."

"For their dad to be in his late forties and drinking as much as they say, it won't be long before his liver goes."

"I hate it for them."

Dawn and I talked for a while. Amy and Samantha let us know they found a place that would make the delivery; a turkey and all the trimmings.

"You two, is there anything we can do for your parents?" Dawn asked.

"The money we are sending mom is helping her out. I think that is all we can do for now," Amy replied.

"Well, let us know if there is."

"Mom said to tell you two thanks," Samantha said.

"You tell your mom if there is anything she needs all she has to do is call," I told them.

"Thanks."

"Have you talked to her lately?" Dawn asked.

"I talked to her and told her I was going to be able to go to medical school. She was very happy," Samantha said.

"Good. I'm sure she is very proud of you. Call her and tell her about Thanksgiving."

"I am going upstairs to do some reading," Samantha said and left us.

"Amy, is she okay?" I asked.

"Yes, she just doesn't like talking about the situation with mom and dad."

I left Dawn and Amy talking and went to check on something in my study. I opened up my email and sent one to Lori to ask if she wanted to come. I was scrolling through some other email when my phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Dr. Smith, this is Dr. Gordon."

"Hi, Dr. Gordon."

"I just wanted to touch base with you about the genealogy research."

"How is it going?"

"Interesting. I wanted to let you know that I am only waiting for some information to come in from Ireland. Once I get it, I will be finished."

"Is the information from Ireland about Samanth and Amy?"

"Yes. I wanted to double-check on something I uncovered here. Dr. Smith, I think you are going to find out some very interesting things about your family."

"I won't be surprised."

"I will probably have it all wrapped up soon."

"That will be good. I will be able to show it to our parents when they come for Thanksgiving."

"I will let you know."

"Thanks, Dr. Gordon."

With everything that had been going on, I had almost forgotten about him. I finished up some emails and went back to the den. Dawn was sitting with Amy.

"Dr. Gordon just called. He thinks he will have all the research finished soon."

"That will be good," Dawn said.

"He is waiting on something from Ireland."

"For the girls?" Dawn asked.

"Yes. He said he was double-checking on something."

"I hope it all explains things," Amy said.

"He said it would be interesting."

Samantha only came back down to eat dinner then went back upstairs. Amy went to check on her about 8:00 and didn't come back down. When Dawn and I went to bed at 10:00, I checked and found Amy and Samantha in her bed asleep.

*****

Monday morning, we were back to our regular schedules. After breakfast, Samantha was heading out for school early when I stopped her.

"Hey, are you okay?"

"Yes."

"You disappeared last night. I was worried about you."

"I just needed to be alone."

"Anything you want to talk about?"

"I was just wishing my mom could be in my life more."

"Honey, you know you can go and visit anytime you want. You can drive or fly and get a car."

"I couldn't go back to the house."

"Then, you can pick up your mom, and you can spend time somewhere else."

"I guess."

"You let us know if you need to talk, please."

"I will."

After Samantha left, Amy left about 9:30.

"Samantha is unhappy," I said to Dawn as we went upstairs to get dressed.

"Amy said she was. She is missing being able to talk to her mom."

"I think it is more than that."

We got dressed, and Dawn left for the school. She had meetings for the rest of the day. Sherri called later and told me about some of the ladies they had recruited to be in our marketing. I told her to make sure that she and Brenda got lingerie and swimwear for them to wear. We talked about them leaving soon for their trip, and I asked if they were coming this weekend. They said they were. After that, I called Mr. Dain at the bank.

"Ian Dain." He said.

"Ian, this is Dr. Smith."

"Hello, Dr. Smith."

"I just wanted to make sure you and your wife were coming this weekend."

"We can't wait. When should we be there?"

"Dinner will be ready at 7:00 Friday. Plan on staying until Sunday if that is what you two want to do."

"I'm sure Sondra will want to do that."

"Good. A couple that is working with me on the limo business will be here, maybe the three ladies from the two businesses."

"Sounds great."

"There may be one other couple that will show up, but I will have to wait and see."

"Sounds great. Can we bring anything?"

"Maybe some wine."

"We can do that. We will see you then."

"Great. I will talk to you later, Ian."

About 11:00, Lori called me.

"Hi, Lori."

"Hi, James. I got your email about this weekend."

"Can you come?"

"I guess I can. I may not be able to stay until Sunday."

"Come for dinner Friday and stay as long as you like."

"Okay. I am finishing the work on my marketing plan for my MBA. I will need to go home Saturday night so that I can go over it again Sunday. I have to turn it in next week."

"Bring it and your computer. We can look it over. There will be several people here that can help with it."

"Oh, that will be good."

"Okay, see you Friday at 7:00."

"Okay."

I headed out to Sam's store and to grab something for lunch.

*****

I walked into Sam's store and went to his office.

"Hi, James. Happy birthday," he said.

"I understand you have some lights for me."

"Oh...yes, Dawn had me order you some lights for making videos."

"Can I get all of them in the Escalade?"

"You should be able to."

"Dawn said you made the recommendation to her about the camera for my birthday."

"I told her you had been looking at it."

"Did you tell her you planned on borrowing it!" I said and laughed.

"Well!"

"Did you get to see the final DVD they had made for me?"

"No, but they were very hot making it," Sam said.

"I hope you kept everything on the up and up."

"Oh, don't worry about Frank."

"Did you know about the other video?"

"What other video?"

"Dawn told me Friday night she had made arrangments for me to be on the set Saturday when Frank shot a video."

"I didn't know about that."

"You will not believe what they did. We show up Saturday to help with a shoot, and Traci Livermore shows up."

"Brandi Love?"

"The same. I couldn't believe it. Before they started shooting, Frank tells her that the male talent has called in sick. Before I knew it, Dawn had me filling in for the male actor."

"What! Bull shit!!"

"Yep. I spent all day Saturday fucking Brandi Love."

"No fucking way! You are full of shit, James!"

"I will have the video to prove it. Dawn set it all up. Everyone but Brandi Love knew the male talent wasn't coming."

"No way!!"

"It was quite an experience."

"I don't believe you!"

"You will just have to wait to see the video."

"I still don't believe you."

"You can ask Dawn and the girls."

"Damn, wish my wife would do that for my birthday."

"You remember Ashley from the strip club?"

"The hot blonde that likes you?"

"Yes. She and her girlfriend showed up Thursday and spent the day and night with us?"

"Doing what?"

"Having incredible sex. Amy and Samantha set that up."

"Damn! That must have cost them a fortune."

"They came for free."

"Damn, James! I want to see the recordings!"

"I turned off the cameras."

"No, you didn't!! There is no way you would have done that!"

I laughed at Sam.

We got some help and loaded the new lights into the Escalade.

"You two be at the house Friday at 7:00. Rachel and Linda are coming."

"We will be there."

I drove back to the house and unloaded the lights and spent the afternoon setting them up until Samantha came in about 3:30.

"Are these the lights?" She asked.

"I went and picked them up. I figured you two told Sam about Saturday."

"Hell, no! He would have wanted to be there," Samantha said and giggled.

"He almost had a stroke when I told him."

We laughed for a minute.

"Are you better?" I asked.

"Yes, I was just feeling sorry for myself."

"No, you weren't. I'm sure you wish your mom were around."

"She was very happy. I am going to get to be a doctor. She knew that was what I wanted."

"You keep her up to date then."

"I will."

"Honey, how old is your dad?"

"He is 49. He is two years older than my mom."

"Your mom will be proud of you," I said and hugged her.

We played with my new lights until Amy came in a little after 4:30.

"Dawn said it would be 6:00 before she got home," Amy told us.

"We can fix dinner then," Samantha said.

Amy wanted to check out my new camera and lights as we set everything up.

About 5:30, they started working on dinner while I was sitting at the bar talking to them.

"Do you two have tests before Thanksgiving?"

"I have two papers due," Amy said.

"I have a chemistry test and a biology test. I'll be studying hard after Thanksgiving for finals."

"You should have your MCAT results by Christmas. Dawn is going to take you to see the med school advisor and get your schedule changed if needed," I said. "Í don't think there will much to change this year."

"I may have to take an extra class next year."

"You can handle it."

"I can see what is available this summer."

"Not this summer. You two are going to the NLP school."

"In California?" Samantha asked.

"I think Canada. There would be fewer distractions."

"When will that be?"

"The month of August."

"The whole month?"

"Yes. Two weeks per course."

"That will be a long time away."

"It will. I expect you two to stay out of trouble."

I talked to the two of them while they cooked. Dawn came in about 6:15 and joined me at the bar.

"Long meeting?" I asked.

"Yes. Diane and I were meeting with the President. She is going to make it hard on him."

"Why?"

"He got off on the wrong foot with her. He thought that since she was a lesbian, he could tell her what to do, but that is not going to happen, and she let him know it," Dawn said and laughed.

"He'll hate that."

"He's a prick," Dawn said.

"Is Diane settling in?"

"Yes. She will take a lot of the building planning off my plate."

"Good."

"It is. I have some work I have to get done for my research. I'm going to change clothes."

Dawn headed up the stairs.

"Are you two going to need to study this weekend?" I asked.

"I'll be caught up," Samantha said.

"I turn in my papers Thursday," Amy replied.

"What about your test on all the surgical instruments?"

"That is before the Christmas break."

"Get ready to study for it."

I left them in the kitchen and went to check my email. I was sitting in the den with my computer when Dawn sat next to me.

"I'm tired," she said.

"Get some sleep tonight, then."

Dawn leaned into my shoulder.

"I need to call my grandmother tonight," Dawn said.

"Any reason?"

"To see if she knows why I need to go back to the reservation."

"Will she tell you?"

"No, but I can dig."

"With Lieke coming, how many days do you think you will be there?"

"That is what I need to find out."

"What are your plans?" I asked.

"I'll drive there after the girls leave for Hawaii."

"I was planning on going with you."

"But Lieke will be here."

"I think she would get a kick out of visiting the reservation for a few days."

"Okay. I'll let my grandmother know when we will be there. I may see if I can leave early."

"Lieke will be her the twelfth."

*****

After we ate dinner, Dawn went upstairs to her study to call her grandmother. We didn't see her again for a few hours.

"Did you learn anything?" I asked when she came back downstairs.

She walked to the sofa and sat next to me.

"Not really," Dawn mumbled.

"Did she say how long you would need to be there?"

"She said I would there as long as it took."

"What does that mean?"

"I don't know."

Dawn was quiet for the rest of the evening as the girls and I worked on our computers.

Dawn and I headed up to bed about 10:00 and left the girls working.

"Okay...what's up?" I asked once we were in the bedroom.

"I'm not sure. My grandmother was rather cryptic."

"Did she say anything?"

"She just said great-grandfather needed me there."

Dawn went into the bathroom as I got undressed. She was not telling me something, but I wasn't going to press here about it. We got ready for bed and went right to sleep.

*****

Tuesday morning, when I woke up, I knew I had slept late. I looked at the clock, and it was a little after 7:00. Dawn wasn't in bed, but I saw the door to her hidden room open. I got up and walked in to find her. She was sitting in a chair looking through one of her old books.

"How long have you been up?" I asked.

"A while."

"I smell breakfast cooking."

"The girls have been up an hour or so," she said without looking up from her book.

"Are you going to eat?"

"Not right now."

Dawn was absorbed in whatever she was reading, so I left her and went down to the kitchen.

"Is she still reading?" Samantha asked.

"Yes. Did you check on her?"

"I was up at 5:30. I came into the bedroom and saw her door open. I asked her what she was doing. All she said was reading."

"Honey, what are you feeling form her?" I asked.

"I'm not sure," Samantha said. "I don't feel much of anything from her right now. It is sort of like she is not there."

"Oh."

I ate with the girls then headed back up to the bedroom to shower. Dawn was still reading, so I went ahead and showered and shaved. After I dried off, I went back into her room.

"Can I interrupt for a minute?" I asked.

"Sure," Dawn said, looking up.

"Is there a reason you are blocking Samantha?"

Dawn could block all of her energy from reaching me when she wanted to. I hadn't noticed earlier, but now knew she was doing it.

"What did she say?"

"She said you felt...blank. I didn't notice earlier, but I do now."

"I'm reading some very old writings...it takes all my concentration."

I let it go at that, but knew it was something else.

"Okay," I said and left her to read.

I put some clothes on and walked down to Samantha's room.

"Is she still in her room?" Samantha asked.

"Yes. She is concentrating on some very old writings...that is why you can't read her."

"Okay. James? Does this have something to do with her going back to the reservation in December?"

"Probably."

I left Samantha as she got ready for school. I went to Amy's room to check on her.

"Will you be gone all day?" I asked as she got dressed.

"Most of it. I am finishing up some research."

"Okay."

"What is Dawn doing?"

"She said she was reading some old writings."

"She has been quiet since she talked to her grandmother yesterday."

"Her grandmother didn't tell her much."

"Now, I wish we were not going to be gone while she is at the reservation."

"Don't worry about her. I have been with her before when her great-grandfather needed her."

"Are you going with her?"

"Yes. I think Lieke will get a kick out of seeing the reservation for a few days."

"I'm glad you will be with her."

I was cleaning up after breakfast when Amy and Samantha left for school. About 9:30, I went back up to the bedroom. Dawn was in her room, gathering up some things. I stood and watched her for a few minutes.

"I'm going down to meditate," Dawn said as she picked up a leather bag.

"Okay."

Dawn took her bag and headed downstairs. I checked the old book she had been reading, and it was one of the ones her great-grandfather had given her on our last visit. It appeared to be very old.

I didn't see Dawn again until about 3:00. I came in from the patio, and she was in the kitchen getting something to eat.

"Do you want me to fix you something?" I asked.

"I got it," Dawn said.

I sat at the bar. She made her sandwich and sat with me.
