"Pfft....." Ray nearly spat out the water he was drinking. "Mom?!....We haven't even done the deed in like a week or two now."
"I know dear but I feel like you guys are holding back because you don't want to keep your sister and I awake at night. So, I'm just saying you should be mindful of any inn you'll be lodging in the future, okay?"
"Don't worry mom. Maybe we'll get a really big house for ourselves, then I'll invite you and Emma to come live with us cause I would really like for you to experience living in a big city one day."
Helen smiled warmly and nodded in response.
She didn't really say anything but she was really pleased and happy to hear Ray say such words.
She'd always had the dream of living in the city once, but that dream had died along with a couple of other dreams in the past as life slapped some reality check on her during her youth, while growing up.
