correctly to make the A, he couldn t tell, but she looked pleased.
She moved on to B, putting his fingers against her lips as she repeated the sound
several times. Her lips were as soft as the skin of her neck, but a different texture. Hot
breath escaped from between them in little puffs, warming and dampening his fingers.
His cock stiffened, an uncontrollable force of nature reacting to her closeness, her
scent, and her touch. It was a good thing the blanket was covering his lap and his growing
erection. He shifted to relieve the pressure of his cock pressing into the Sears and
Roebuck catalog. Covering his mouth with his hand, he tried to simulate the hard burst of
air that accompanied  B.
Then Catherine brought his hand back to her throat so he could feel how B was
different from A, shorter and sharper. The feel of her smooth flesh under his fingers made
it hard to concentrate on the subtle differences in the letters as she continued through the
alphabet. He lost track of the various sounds, he was so distracted by touching her.
Besides, there were too many letters with very subtle differences in the buzzing they
made in Catherine s throat.
By the letter K, she seemed to realize it and gave his hand a squeeze.  Very good.
That s enough for today. She checked the small watch pinned to the bodice of her dress.
 It s getting late. I must go.
No, he wanted to protest. I ll learn the rest of the alphabet and make more sounds.
I ll draw maps and stick figures, anything you want, just don t leave. But he nodded as
she rose from the bed, leaving an empty spot next to him.
 Thank you, he mouthed and smiled at her.
 You re welcome. I ll come back tomorrow after school to see how you re doing and
bring textbooks along. Goodbye. She raised a hand then walked out the door.
Jim stared after her, rubbing his hand over his bare arm where it had pressed against
the cotton sleeve of her blouse. The skin felt sensitive, the hairs prickling as they stood on
end. Tomorrow he would see her again, be close to her and breathe in her sweet perfume.
He could hardly wait.

Catherine thought about Jim all the way back to the McPhersons . He was bright,
eager to learn and would be very easy to teach. Only his disability created a challenge.
She had read about signing, and knew there was a school for the deaf in New York.
Perhaps Aunt Lydia could send informative literature or a book about signing. She d send
a telegram tomorrow asking her.
The sky had grayed to dusk by the time she reached the farm. She d missed supper.
Mrs. McPherson was cleaning up the kitchen while tending her baby and breaking up an
argument between the older children. Catherine apologized for being late and allowed
Mrs. McPherson to assume she d been on a buggy ride with Charles Van Hausen. Then
she pitched in, taking over the kitchen work so the woman could deal with her squabbling
children.
Marlene and Caleb destroyed every false notion about twins being of one accord.
The eleven-year-olds argued constantly and, in addition to being opposite genders,
looked completely different from one another. Mrs. McPherson sent Marlene to help
Catherine in the kitchen and Caleb to slop the hogs, while she carried the baby into the
bedroom to change her diaper.
Mr. McPherson sat by the kerosene lamp in the living room, reading his newspaper,
oblivious to the chaos around him. Catherine was definitely ready to move on to the
Albrights home where there was only one daughter, a polite sixteen-year-old with
refined manners.
As she scoured pots and pans, Catherine relived every moment of her afternoon with
Jim Kinney, not only her attempts to communicate and teach, but the unexpected feelings
he roused in her. She d barely known he existed until yesterday, but now he filled her
mind and senses.
She d tried to remain detached, convincing herself she felt no attraction, but her body
had betrayed her. From the moment she d entered the room, the sight of his naked
shoulders above his bandage-wrapped torso had sent a tingling through her feminine
parts. His bright brown eyes and delighted smile on seeing her had made her stomach
jumpy and her legs weak. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
