Rachel took my bib and wiped my messy mouth off and pushed the nipple of my bottle into my mouth. “Hold it” she said. I pulled one of my hands out and grabbed it. “Both hands honey” came out. Now I was sitting at the table drinking from a bottle like a toddler feeling totally humiliated.
Rachel turned away from me and faced Nichole. “We have been together for over twenty years and we both are as in love as the day we met. He has needs that will never go away. The doctor even says that. I will take him any way he comes because I love him and when he is not in diapers, he fulfills my needs and desires. I couldn’t see my life with anyone else even under present conditions.” At that point they both just looked at me.
Nanny looked back at her with a smile. “He does make a cute baby girl, doesn’t he.” Rachel responded with “yes he does.”
