He awoke about midnight and managed to stumble into his bedroom. He still had the bonnet on his head and as he got into bed he noticed it and untied it and threw it onto the floor in the corner of his room. Both of his sheets were missing but he drew the blanket up under his chin and went back to sleep. He slept fitfully, tortured by erotic nightmares, until he awoke the next morning a little after 9:00. Tom showered and ate some breakfast. Per Linda's orders the previous night he washed all of the diapers and gathered up the bottles and toys and such and put them in the playpen which he wheeled into the spare bedroom, where it would be available the following week... He spent the day at home, scared to go outside, and equally scared to stay inside. A couple of times he saw Linda come outside and he feared that she might come over and visit with him, but she seemed to honor his day off. He watched as she talked to the two girls who had witnessed his humiliation the previous day. They seemed to be laughing and enjoying themselves and eventually Linda patted them on their backs and went back inside, apparently satisfied that all was well. Tom watched a little TV that night and went to bed early, this time with new sheets. It was his first normal day in nearly a week but he panicked when he thought of the morning and the beginning of a new week and his upcoming ordeals. |
