He looked disappointed. Manuel rarely had someone to connect with. I suspected that was why he enjoyed my mom’s classes. My heart cried for the little fellow.

“Do you want to come down to the beach? I’ve got a boogie board here somewhere.”

“Oh yeah!” His face lit up.

An hour later, as I waited for Manuel, Tamara tottered in. Her eyes wandered over my naked chest.

“Mm… you’re being a pussy teaser.” She chuckled.

I couldn’t tell what pissed me off the most, that she was eye-fucking me around her son or that she completely ignored the poor kid, who’d come running in clutching a boogie board.

“Are you ready, little man?” I asked.

He nodded.

Tamara rolled her eyes and staggered off.

I hoped her disinterest in her son wouldn’t affect him.

As I clasped his little hand, an overwhelming need to shield him from harm made my heart swell.
