“Nigel. Come here.
Now.”
Nigel raced to the door wearing a look of terror. “You weren’t supposed to make yourself
comfortable in this room…”
“Please explain these clothes.”
Without hesitation, he spoke.
“These are my mother’s clothes.
She’s quite a shopper.”
“Fifty pairs of identical panties?”
“She’s a creature of habit.”
I
ground my teeth. “Nigel, these are
bikini briefs. Eighty year old women do
not wear bikini briefs.”
“I
think my mother is having an affair.
Let’s not discuss it.”
