But Mary was always amused by Curtis, chuckling, and she playfully swatted at him. "You rascal, you should cwithto a church to see if you don't get straightened out." Curtis didn't dodge, standing there lazily as she tapped him on the cheek. "Why would they need to straightenout? I'm the picture of devotion, praying for your long life every day." Jennifer said, "Anne, go and help Mary change into something nice for dinner." "Okay." Leanne helped Mary back to her room, and Mary had Leanne pick an outfit for her, complaining everything in the closet was so last season, "These styles are so out of date."

Leanne was about to leave but turned back to say, "You can explain our divorce to Mary." With his hands in his pockets and leaning against the door, Curtis looked at her from under raised eyelids. "Nice try, makingout to be the bad guy." "If you're not the bad guy, then who is?" Leanne snapped back. "How do you plan on getting engaged to Suzan without first telling Mary the truth?" Curtis frowned, and his tone was ambiguous. "Who told you I was getting engaged?" "Everyone's talking about it." "Everyone who? Givea name."

Curtis laughed out of irritation, following her. "When did you get so sharp-tongued? "I learned from the best." "I never taught you that. What, did you catch it from kissing me?" Leanne suddenly halted, and Curtis stopped, too, looking up.
