The ones with genuine bear hugs are Ruchille and Tracy, who reminded me of Ampy. And Shillster, I could only forgive that lost child. I know about her like the back of my frustrated hands (ready to slap some silly sense into her noggin) than Leslie because my blood is thicker.
There was childhood competition her and me but only in the mind. That was long ago but continues to carry on as if she wants to be on top. Fine, let her and her mother be – always on top in their world, surrounded by onlookers.
But really, since I’m older than her. We could not really get along. But I’m not a thug, promoting comradery through soft tyranny.
I hope the cousins wake up, take care and protect their IMMEDIATE families first and foremost. It’s the `Couple For Christ` concept, whereby the parents knew each other before their children came. And when the children grow up, they will have their own families and minds, too.
