Den Mother


You were sure she wasn't coming....   

Sure, Sheila usually chaperoned most of the teams road games, but you didn't expect her on this particular trip.  Recently separated from her husband, the team's assistance coach, you would have bet she would have stayed at home. Add to that, her son, and your best friend, wasn't going be in the net as goalie for this finals tournament.  He was back at home laid up with a knee injury. Why wasn't she home taking care of him?  


There she was though, standing too greet you, a big smile on her face when you arrived to get on the bus.  You feel her eyes on you the entire trip, even without turning back to look.  To top it off, you ended up with a motel room all to yourself, something that rarely happens on road trips.  If you didn't already know she planned it, it was confirmed when she followed you into the elevator. She didn't ask, but simply stated that after she got the rest of the team settled in, she'd be up for a visit.  She smiled again and told you to be ready.  Head on up to room 118 on the NEXT PAGE HERE:
