Kat:
The littel girl grinned at Julia, "thanks," she said for the pickle."
Though she didn't really understand what happened to Derek's, he NEVER ate
them. She began to nibble on Julia's and glanced at the red headed ladies
plate, just in case.
Sam:
Sam couldn't help but chuckle when she noticed waht was going on and being a
fairly soft touch herself handed her own over. "I hope you odn't have high
blood pressure she teased, all that salt isn't good for that."
Kat:
"I don't, at least, I don't think I do," Kat said thoughtfully. "But my
mom's a doctor, so I guess she'd know and she buys big jars of them for me.,
so I guess it's okay."
Sam:
A doctor, a computer guru actually two and who else? If something did
actually happen, she was going to have to do smething about all these women
he was living with. Sam smiled at her, "I think you're right." She rested
her chin on her hand and looked over Derek's shoulder as he finished up the
computer he was working on. Julia was already finished. "So, they haven't
broken into the pentagon have they," she asked curiously.
Derek:
Derek glanced up, "If they did it's not our concern," he told her as he
shut the computer down.
Sam:
Sam grinned she liked that kind of an attitude and thought Claire and Brady
should be appreciative ov it too. She nodded. "Would it be possible for us
to get a tour of the house," she asked curiously.
Derek:
Derek hesitated, but figured her ought to keep them occupied so Milo could
have some time with his daughter. "Yes, I think that could be arranged."
Just then he heard Claire's question and Julia's answer. He really wished
she would be so forth right with these people they barely knew. Though she
did seem to be leaving some of it to their imaginations, which could be
either good or bad. Depending on how imaginative they were. He had noticed
that Julia ver uncharacterizistically had stopped eating. This concerned
him. If she wasn't hungry, she probably felt a lot worse than she'd been
letting on to.
