CHAPTER THREE. BASEBALL GAME
Next day, a 12 year old Ben asked David, if he could help him with playing baseball.
-"Sure thing! Let`s go today, right after the classes." - agreed David without any delay.
-"Now, if you`ll hold the bat a bit stronger, the kick might become more precise. Now, let`s try once again. Kick, as soon, as you`ll be ready, O.K.?" - suggested David.
-"Great! You did it! You just have to relax and be a little more confident in yourself. You are really doing well. So, that`s enough for today, but tomorrow we can proceed. Right?" - asked Robert wiping the sweat from his forehead.
-"Do you really think, uncle Robert, that I`m doing well?" - asked the boy, when they were driving back home.
-"Yes, sure! Just remember what I`d told you. Hold the bat stronger!" - said David with the feeling, that the older boy, not only Timothy, kind of likes him.
When they came home the dinner was already on the table.
-"Wash your hands boys, and we`re waiting for you!" - said Stacy, bringing the drinks to the table. In a few minutes the whole family sat all together at the table repeating the pray after David.
"-Thank you, Lord for this delicious dinner and for a new great family! Amen!" said David.
" -Amen!" - repeated the others.
-"Everything smells so good, Stacy. You`re just a great cook. What about Robert? Did he like your cooking?" asked the man.
-"Oh, yes. Sure! Everything, David, was fine, until he hired a new assistant, Kitty. She was young, gorgeous, supportive. I think, it was the love from the first sight. By the way, he told me about it right away, without any delay. That`s why, we remain good friends and the kids willingly visit his new house, found good understanding with their second mother, so to say." - replies Stacy.
After the dinner they both wash the dishes, while the kids wen upstairs to play computer games.
-"Now, when everything here is done we can go to our bedroom. What do you think, dear?" - asks Stacy.
-"And what about the kids? Will that be all right?- asks David.
-"Don`t worry!When they play their games, they`re so busy, that it`s better not to disturb them. At least, we have two hours at our disposal. Come on, David. At night you`ll be busy with writing." - insists the young woman.
-"You`re totally right, honey! Let`s do it!" - and they dashed to the bedroom.
