Condom: Justin

Every few weeks, Jennifer had dinner at Debbie’s. Debbie made sure Justin wasn’t working, and even though he pretended not to know why, he never made plans on those nights.

It was awkward at first, but before long Justin could tell that Jennifer really liked Debbie and Vic. Most of her attention, though, was focused on Justin; she’d sit close to him, always asking him questions and touching him- fixing his hair, reaching for his hand. Before she left, she’d hug him so tightly that he knew she was going to ask him to come home. But she never did.
