Could it be that they were really so reckless, letting a child witness their intimacy?
"Yes, indeed." Tommy nodded earnestly, his face filled with mystery, "Once, I saw it after I had taken a shower. Uncle Thomson was holding Mom, sitting on the bed, and seemed to be kissing her very forcefully! Oliver told me that's what adults do when they want to have a baby. So, did the baby in Mom's belly and me come out like that?"
Looking at Thomas Smith's eager eyes for knowledge, Dylan King didn't know what to say. Children seem to have a natural obsession with where they come from. They want to know how they came into the world, why they are different from others, why they have a mom and a dad, and why each mom and dad are different....
However, Tommy's words, innocent and ignorant to a child, meant to him that Emma Smith and Robert Thomson were very much in love!
Sitting on the bed, kissing so forcefully... Oh God, he didn't want to think it was that kind of "kissing"!
