This is the only mention of Thanksgiving (so far!) in any of my books. Enjoy:)
Her meltdown occurred at her
grandmother's house. Kenny made a typical joke about women with PMS, and Keri
snapped.
"Just wait until you get
involved with someone with a crazy schedule, who hardly has any time for
you." She burst into tears and fled into the bathroom, humiliated for
losing her temper, and angry at Kyle for not being able to see her the previous
day. After several minutes of crying, Keri padded down the hall to the guest
bedroom and stretched out on the flowered comforter.
Soon, she heard her mother's
footsteps approach. Then Keri felt gentle hands stroke her hair.
"I'm sorry I ruined
dinner," Keri muttered after several minutes.
"This is pretty serious, isn't
it honey? You've fallen pretty hard for this Kyle."
Keri nodded. "I've never felt this
way before."
"Mmmhhhmmm, so he's not a
student…It must be rough when schedules aren't in synch. I remember how hard it
was for your dad and me when I was in med school."

Sounds like a wonderful story.
A mother's tenderness is a wonderful thing. I like books that include the family.
Poor thing.... and Kenny's probably thinking that her reaction confirmed his PMS comment!
Really nicely done. AND you spelled Keri MY way LOL So, i am biased, but you character names are FANTASTIC!
Her turbulent emotions shine through! Well done!
