All eyes were on Cynthia telling the story at the sex club and what exactly she had done as with Castle punching out the partner of Cody. Everyone was chuckling with her telling the events of over a day ago.
"Tell me Cynthia. I hope you don't mine me asking. How are you coping with you're new legs?" Martha asked with everyone staring at her for even asking the question including Alexis.
"Just perfect Martha. I understand with-in the next couple of months the military doctors would like to use a process called New Skin for where it will cover over my legs now with real blood, veins and everything else that makes up the leg all together. It's free of charge since I am on the program."
"Wonderful Dear! I would very much like to have you send photos to me in England since my play starts up again on tour." Martha replied with finishing up her Scotch on the Rocks.
The caterer female asked on whether anyone wanted a refill of there drinks. They all agreed. While in the kitchen the Turkey was coming out of the oven with Castle using the hot gloves to place it onto the table in the living area over by the fire place. "Babe, it turned out just great and it was done just right." His wife says with helping to bring over the stuffing and other items for the dinner.
Everyone was amazed on just how lovely the table was looking with Castle standing with his two carving knives to cut parts of the turkey for everyone wanting their choices. Drinks were being served at the table with everyone sitting. Robert pulled out Cynthia's chair to have her sit down, along with a quick kiss to the cheek.
After a moment of two finishing up the craving and having everyone settled. Castle asked of the following to everyone around the table. "Who would be interested in giving the blessing today for Thanksgiving?" He asked with Cynthia raising her hand.
"I will today." Everyone was able to hold hands waiting for the blessing of a special Thanksgiving. "Here goes everyone. GOD BLESS ALL OF US FOR BEING ALIVE TODAY FOR THIS SPECIAL DAY. I AM LUCKY TO BE ALIVE WITH MY CANCER DISAPPEARING AND WITH THE DOCTORS PLACING ME WITH NEW LEGS. I WOULD LIKE TO BLESS EVERYONE FOR BEING HERE TO SIT DOWN HERE FOR THIS SPECIAL MEAL FOR THE HOLIDAY. AND MOST OF ALL I AM BLESSED TO HAVE THIS SPECIAL MAN SITTING NEXT TO ME TO BE HERE AS WELL. GOD BLESS ONE AND ALL. Thank you." She finished with tears falling down her face and Robert wiping them with a napkin from in front of him.
"That was just lovely Cynthia. Now lets all eat for Thanksgiving." Castle replied with everyone passing along the plates to have their choices of entrees.
