<strong>Melonie at the table with Robert ....as everyone else seemed to have left them alone. </strong><br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">"Well then, I'd love to have you come along. I don't know if they'll be taking new sign-ups until they build the new dorm, but I think you'd like it there. And, adult theatre? What kind of plays are you in?" he asks.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Melonie smiled up at her older cousin ..he was kind of cute ...so tall with muscles in just the right proportion . Her face blushed a bit as ..she spoke softly .<strong> " Well I am into all sorts of plays ...sometimes I get the good parts ...sometimes just little ones. I just love the costumes ...I have many of them. Some I bought and others I have modified and created myself . Think I am one of them people that just likes pretending to be someone else . Dressing up and that ...gives you like the chance to do so many different things . I want to be a costume designer ...or an actress . But everyone wants to be in the movies  I not sure if I am that gifted . "</strong>as she looked down at her hands and played with them some .  She was shy even if talking about her own passion but Robert was more like a stranger to her than anything.<br/><br/><strong>" My oldest brother Jay used to practice with me before I would audition ...but he don't live here anymore . " </strong>as she swallowed and seemed almost about to cry over the thought  as she did miss him so much . He had another life now ...custody of his son and with his business taking off it was understandable .<strong> " Everyone I guess leaves sometime ..." </strong>as she tried to close the subject .<strong>" I just kind of feel a bit lost around the house these days with Erin gone off now ..we hung out all the time . I not as outgoing as Stephanie and ..well I tend to just be her shadow . Though she was pretty jealous when I made homecoming queen.  "  </strong>grinning from ear to ear on that last one .<br/><br/>Biting her lip as she decided to pick the stuff off the table and put everything away ..she would wash the table down and clean up . Maybe go for a drive as she really didn't think Robert would be interested in hanging out with her . The boy was in college ..though he did say it would be nice ..and all . Melonie just figured he was being nice . Giving him a few smiles as she went about cleaning up .<strong>" Wonder why David didn't come to dinner ..he must be overly tired from staying up working on his computer stuff ...what they call that ..networking or something . " </strong>as she shrugged .<strong>" Maybe you can take part of this lasagna over to the guest house ..you know in case either of you get hungry . Save you a trip from coming over to the main house in the middle of the night . Better send the rest of the chocolate pie too ...David loves it .  "  </strong>
