"After the accident, Tom called to tell me about the accident, and to ask that I help carry out Erica's wish that I help take care of the kids. He was still shy, since he hadn't stopped fantasizing about me all those years, and from the tone of his voice, I was sure that he wanted me sexually. And of course he did need my help with the kids."
"My motives were purely to help Erica's children. So without worrying much about Tom's feelings for me, I came to stay in his home..."
"When I first saw Tom after the accident, I tired hard to be a good sister, and indeed I couldn't help but be sympathetic. Tom felt so lost without Erica and trying to manage the kids and the funeral. I did everything I could to help, and I could tell he really appreciated it. And the kids were so sweet, they kept calling me 'Aunt Maria'; they were so happy to see me, I came just at the right time to help out."
