January waved at Ernst as they saw his car pulling up to the gates of the zoo. He was wearing a button–down shirt and a pair of jeans. His face was serious and she knew he was nervous. He’d come out of his shell a lot with her, but this was a lot of people and a situation which was new.

Kaylee saw Darwin and was immediately dodging through the parked cars to fling herself at her best friend.

“He is not as sexy as me.”

Gulliver’s comment in her ear made her snicker.

“He’s brilliant and I do like a man with the ability to hold a good conversation.”

“Who the fuck is that with Kaylee?”

The quiet question made Gulliver and January look to where his siblings were standing immediately behind them.

“That’s Ernst.”

“The guy who January went on dates with?”

“Just coffee and lunch,” Gulliver grunted angrily. “It wasn’t

“It better not have been. Do you still want him?”

She looked in disbelief, “I’m sorry what?”

“Do you have feelings for that man?”

“No. I called him this morning and told him I didn’t. I knew after spending the evening and morning with Gulliver, I wanted to see if we can get back to what we had.”

“We will.” Gulliver commented quietly. “There is no doubt, my love.”

She shot another inquisitive look at the countenance of the face staring at Ernst.

“The boy?”

“His son.”

“Where’s his mother?”

“Prison but he doesn’t know that so keep your mouth shut.” January felt strangely protective of her new friend and Kaylee’s best friend. “That little boy is Kaylee’s best friend.”

“He will be her cousin.”

The comment made both Gulliver and January completely turn 2/6

and stare incredulously. 1

“Mom, Mom, I found Darwin. Where’s Mitsos? I hav

him Darwin so we can all be best friends.”

“They will be brothers,” Glenn whispered with his nostrils flaring as he took in the man approaching them.

“Is he gay?” January asked Gulliver in shock.

“I know he’s dated men in the past. He kind of goes back and forth to whatever suits his mood but he’s not dated anyone since his son was born. He’s fucked around of course but I presumed it was with women.”

“This is crazy,” Thisbe giggled. “Glenn has it bad for a man who is straight.”

“He is not straight. He’s confused. I will clarify things for him.” Glenn was boldly blunt as Ernst approached. He nudged January, “introduce us now.”

“Glenn!”

“Do it.”

“Can you at least let him approach us? He’s shy as hell, incredibly introverted.”

“Because he’s confused about his sexuality. I will help him

shine.”

“This is worse than when Gulliver saw you the first ti school. He had your entire life mapped out in thirty seconds,” Thisbe giggled.

“Hi January,” Ernst cleared his throat. “Are you sure we’re not intruding?”

“Did you see how excited Kaylee is? She’s thrilled you are here with Darwin. Come closer and I’ll introduce you to everyone.” She took him by the bicep and noted both Raptis men glaring at her hand on his arm. She rolled her eyes. “Ernst this is Gulliver Raptis, Kaylee’s dad.”

“And her husband.”

“You were never legally married.” Ernst said seriously.

“I said the vows and I meant them.”

“I’m sure she did to and look how that panned out for her.”

“Oh, I like him.” Thisbe giggled. She stepped forward and extended her hand, “I’m Thisbe Crane Raptis.”

“The sister who betrayed her best friend.” Ernst took her hand and called Thisbe out.

“A sin I will atone for the rest of my life. I’m so happy January is giving me a second chance that I will be her ride–or–die for

“We’ll see. Time will tell.”

“This is Glenn, Gulliver’s brother.”
