James's Stepmom Sam

James's house is a short walk from school. He talks the whole way about the games you're going to play, then bolts for the bathroom the second you're through the front door. A voice drifts in from the kitchen.

You head toward the kitchen to introduce yourself. Sam turns from the counter to face you. She's young, blonde, and wearing an orange sweater that's fighting a losing battle and tight jeans. She smiles.
