“Yes… And three different magazines claiming you ‘told all’ for a lousy twenty grand will agree.”
“Alright, alright, don’t tell me then, damn! Let’s jus’ hope you ain’t doin’ somethin’ that’ll really fuck ya up in the long run, Marsh.” Frank said back.
I thought about what Frank had just said for a moment before responding. Could my choice for adopting Lea really have such negative effects on my life? No, no, of course not. If anything it’s a blessing to have a child to love in your life. I sighed deeply and said: “Don’t worry about it. Listen, if it’ll help you sleep at night, I can assure you I wasn’t doing anything illegal.”
