All three of us came away from leaning against the building and Kim threateningly said, "Spill the beans Mister!"

"Well it just so happens that I have found some gasoline and a beat up old Land Rover to put it in. With Eli's help I've managed to get it running."

Kim bounded forward with a scream of triumph. Colt attempted to put on a serious face as holding one finger up he said, "Now the deal is you have to take your husbands along."

"Did he forget to mention that we've also set up babysitting for the evening?" Eli added, as he and Tolak came up behind Colt.

All three of us chuckled. Men!

Kim sidled up to Colt and said, "Who else would I share chocolate with but you Sugar?"

Colt looking entirely enamored with his wife pointed off to the side and said, "Your chariot awaits."

She grabbed his hand and yanked, "Well come on then!"

Keturah sidled up to Eli and said, "I find that I very much want to try this chocolate they speak of."

Eli's eyebrows rose and he said as he raised one hand to purse at his lips, "I'm not sure you should have any my love. It might spoil you."

Keturah drew her fist back and laughing Eli said as he held up both his hands, "Okay! Okay! I will take you to the chocolate. See what a monster you've already created Kim."

The two couples laughed together as they headed for the old Land Rover, which sounded as if its last two legs had already given out on it and all that remained was the memory of former life. Together holding hands Tolak and I trailed along behind the others.

Leaning down Tolak whispered, "I don't understand any of this. Am I going to like where I am going?"

I chuckled and looking up to him I said, "Tolak, if I can guarantee you anything in life, it would be that you are very much going to enjoy everything that transpires this night."

"Everything?"

"Everything." I stated firmly, as I made up my mind to make tonight an extremely special one for my man.

"Then it will be the same as every day I am blessed to spend with you, as the addition of you in my life has made everything better."

With a choked up sounding voice I said, "I can never repay Kim back enough for her teaching you how to speak the English language, but I sure am going to try!"

Kim looked back with a smile and said, "You don't owe me a thing Sugar. To God goes the glory for everything."
