The Piper's Son

‎"And he remembered the water and how warm it felt and one of the guys doing a nudie run along the beach, and then they all stripped down to underwear and in the darkness he knew exactly where to find her, hadn't realised he was looking for her until his hand snaked out and grabbed her, their mouths connecting and tongues taking over while his brain was saying danger danger will robinson."

Sighs. I love this part of the novel. It highlights the failures of men to admit to others what they admit to themselves. Tom will not admit what Tara means and that pisses me off. Yes, they end up friends (or more? :0 ) but he never admits anything. Wish I could elbow a friend so he'd do differently. Poor Candis. Poor me.
Men (correction: manchilds) are impossible to deal with.
