Let's Talk About Sex—aka 'girl talk'
This chapter is rated M just to be safe.
Girls' Day out. Aimee 'had the day off.' Rachel was with her grandparents for the day. Lacey was no doubt showing her granddaughter off at every beauty parlor and shopping center in Dade County.
Aimee was over at her best friend Maria's apartment. Maria's cousin Cori-Lynn was visiting from Oregon. Cori-Lynn and Aimee hadn't met before. Cori-Lynn was getting married in six weeks. She and her fiancé were planning a two week honeymoon at the same resort that Aimee and Horatio spent their honeymoon at. She wanted to know what the resort was like.
"The rooms are nice," Aimee said with a smile
"They never saw anything else," Maria put in.
"Yes, we did!" Aimee defended in mock offense. "We saw the dining room and the beach for an hour a day—to give housekeeping a chance to change the sheets."
"And what if the maid didn't get there in that hour?" Cori-Lynn teased.
"Then suerte resistente," Aimee said.
Cori-Lynn and her fiancé John already had two children, ages three and four. The conversation got around to pregnant sex when Cori-Lynn mentioned that she wasn't not at all fond of being pregnant because John 'barely' had sex with her for the following seven months. Well, Aimee almost choked on her pasta.
Cori-Lynn had a surprised, somewhat concerned expression on her face. Maria patted her cousin's shoulder.
"She doesn't have that problem. Her problem is keeping Horatio's hands off her," Maria said.
It was Cori-Lynn's turn to choke. "Really?" She said.
Aimee nodded. "My daughter's not even two; how do you think I got like this?" she said putting her hand on her stomach.
Translation
suerte resistente – Spanish for 'tough luck.'
