277 wivesbehavingbadly

.  have you made your decision ?"
"i don't know . she said ." i really don't know  ."
"there 's an awful lot of not knowing about . " i said .
the twins retreated to the floor and began to wrestle like puppies , my reture having made them  feel safe enough to lapse into boisterousness . even so , now and then , one or the other  would bound up and touch base with my arm , knee , or face .
i fought not to panis . i fought not to hate nathan for leaving me in thye lurch . i fought to reclaim the clear , hard sight of my former life that would urge me to ring up an agency first thing in the morning and empoly anyone who are avaible .
the boys' noise level rose ."  mun , " lucas shrieked , and i found myself warding off a serious head butt .
" you mustn't do  that, lucas , you might hurt someone ."
i was not sure i could dump them on a strange agency person .
"mun ..." saiod lucas  ." dad says ...."
there was a sudden , wrenching silence . i knelt down and drew my boys close . their heads nested into my shoulders  , and their little  bodies sank against mine . i murmured ." yes , lukey  . what did dad say ....?"
a strange agency person might take against lucas 's head butting . or felix's sudden silences . an agency person might handle them roughly , or feed them eggs , which they hated . an agency person  would not understand that they ached for their  father .
"dad says ...."  echoed felix , the eyelashes sround his big eyes resembling wet feathers . i looked into their blue depths  . which seemed to contain so much more knowledge than his ..allowd . i tured to lucas ."  what does dad say ...?"
