THE KEY TO MY HEART

24

She is now driving us home.

" I  spoke with Lisa.  We both apologized. They were worried about getting stds. I reassured her you don't have any.  They still will most likely stay in their own cabin. It's a start.  I  thinking Montana.  We can leave tomorrow if you like and pack food and house hold items we bought today. What do you think?"
" Montana it is. I will hook up my RV to the truck and we can load it up tonight. In regards to the other matter. It's is understandable they don't want STDS. My former life, I did catch some stds but they were curable. I stopped  because some people we found out had other STDS that were not curable.  I wasn't willing to take the risk. I am sorry my sexual behavior messed up your extramarital fun."

I grabbed her thigh and squeeze it a little.  I tell her thank you for being honest and it's okay. I call my wife to tell her she and I will be going to Montana for several days. I  tell her Lisa and I  spoke.  She told me Lisa left a voice mail. She tells me to have fun and be safe. We say we love one another.  We end our call.  I didn't mention what Silvia disclosed to me. She probably knows this. We pull up to her property and she gets out. She works on attaching the rv.  I could see the horses trailer. It's a very nice one.  She gets back in.

" Silvia,  I need to text Lisa we will be leaving tomorrow.  Do you want any security to go with us?''  " I rather it just be us.  I don't use security unless it it's necessary.  I enjoy my privacy.  We will be gone and return a few days before Thanksgiving."

I text Lisa the information. She suggested we take two security with us. I say no but thank you. She replies they can be discreet. I don't respond right away. I speak to Silvia.  She says reluctantly okay. But they are to be a distance.  I respond to Lisa.  She says good and is glad I changed my mind. She tells me they will rent a RV and pull a truck behind it. I tell her okay.  We arrive at my home. We go inside to start packing. I mentioned I would like to go fishing for fun. I don't eat fish. She asks me why. She is right.  I agree with her and tell her I  am use to fishing because Cindy and the others eat fish.
We are finally done and the RV is loaded. We eat dinner and it was moist and delicious.  We clean up and go take a shower.  I texted Lisa telling her the time we would be leaving.  She says okay.  I texted bea and Alice too. They don't  respond but will see it later on. Silvia tells me the contractor called her. She wrote a check and will leave the check in an an envelope at the guards booth. We go to bed early.

The following morning,  we had breakfast burritos and cranberry juice for dinner.  We cleaned the kitchen. We use the restroom.  I am still tired. Silvia tells me to sleep.  I tell her okay. We are in the truck and she hands the guard the the envelope and tells him the contractor will be picking up it up today.  My two employees are behind us.  It is dark still.  We pass the gate and she starts driving. I fall asleep. 

I am driving and she is sleeping. She is snoring in a very low sound. I smile and turn on the navigation system and put in the coordinates and turn the radio on low. I drive where they can see me. I pull over after three hours and get out. She is still asleep but not snoring. I go speak to the driver and give him the name of the camp ground we will be staying at. This way I can drive faster. He thanks me.  I get back in the truck.

" Can we stop some place so I can use the restroom. Plus, I like to get some water, gum and nuts. I will pay for the gas and camp ground fee and whatever you want to drink and snack on."   " Julia, I  will but everything else is a no. You and Cindy are saving me a lot of money. I don't want to be greedy.  Please don't argue or debate with me."

I nod my head. She pulls over on the next exit off the freeway. We both get out to use the restroom and get beverages and other items.  The men get out too and do the same. We are back on the freeway.  I am wide awake and I turn the radio to a satellite station.  We are sipping on our beverages and singing to some of the songs we know. 

" It will take us a little over nine hours depending on traffic to get to Glacier mountains.  I chose this place Julia because we can go hiking and they have a town nearby we can shop,  ear and buy souvenirs. They have a Rangers too if we need them. This is why I felt we didn't need security. I know Lisa is worried about your safety.  I respect that."

We finished the nuts.  We chew some gum so our ears don't get clogged.  We stop a few times to use the restroom and stretch our legs. We ate all together at a diner. We finally are at the camp site.  Lisa did reserve their camp number to be a distant but across. This way they could keep an eye on us.  They came to place motion sensors around the RV as a precaution.  Silvia was okay with this. We all go walking exploring the area. It is cold but gorgeous.  She has walking metal sticks for us to use. She knows my arthritis flares up in weather changes etc.   We walk back and get in the RV. It is warm not hot. We remove our hiking boots and coats.  She puts them away and the walking poles. We wash and dry our hands. We had the crock pot making stew while we drove. We ate some with some French sour dough bread with a nice glass of red bourdeaux wine. We had two bowls and two glasses of wine. We have chocolate cake slices for dessert with milk after we let our food settle. We cleaned up and use the restroom.  It's is raining now. We can hear it hitting the metal on the rv. We change into thermals and get into the bed and look at the stars out the window. You can see the stars even though it is raining.  We start reading our books.  We are done with a few chapters.  We talk some before we fall asleep cuddling.
