Part 6

Anita and Juan came on a visitor’s visa. They intended to apply for citizenship and Lei knew an immigration attorney that would help them. He was a regular guest of hers and had offered to help with special friends. This certainly was the case, so she brought him in to talk to them. As they were going over the details, Lei said that she would provide services “pro boner” if he would.

That got a laugh until Norm, the attorney, said that he had decided to divorce his wife and wanted to move into one of the long-term rooms if Lei would share it with him. Yes, he understood what went on in her life, and he could accept it.

“What was I saying about being careful what you ask for?” chortled Lei. “This is what I wanted and I accept your offer. Just so you understand clearly, this is not a long-term commitment because I have never been in this situation before and don’t know if I can handle it. We’ll just take it one day at a time and see where it goes.”
