Her alarm went off with a steady buzz. It was 5:30 in the morning. The only redeeming thing about the day was that it was a Friday, the last day of work. Anne got slowly out of bed, her cat falling away from over her legs and made her way to the bathroom. She looked into the mirror and thought, "I'm 32 years old and if I weren't so plain looking I'd be happi...
Anne Garcia was in love. The nineteen year old, married now for ten months, stood on the wharf with about two hundred other wives waving as their Marine husbands or boyfriends had boarded a big boat at the Norfolk Naval Base, shipping out to Iraq. She could clearly see her older husband, standing on the rail and waving at the crowd, wearing a city fire de...
Anne awoke early the next morning. Her dreams had been beyond pleasant. She thought a about her time with Michael Wilson and about Jack Meadows. Anne realized that she would soon be free to explore life with one or both of these men. The only thing she would ever have to thank Charlie for in the future was for giving her two wonderful children. The thought...
As Wanda Catron drove home that Sunday morning, she was a very confused woman. Her emotions were pulling at her, her mind was in turmoil as she thought about the events of the day, and she really needed someone to talk to. The problem was, the one who threw her mind into turmoil was her best friend and lover, the person she would normally turn to to talk thi...
"Where are we going?" asked Anne for the fifteenth time that evening. Her curiosity was killing her ever since Eric got back from his meeting. "Why don't you dress nicely for a night on the town?" was all that he said as he sat down on the bed in the hotel room. Anne had no clue what they were going to do. She only had a few outfits with her on the trip, bu...
A few years ago I stepped away from a very good job with a Fortune 50 company. I opened my own business and grew it to about fifty employees. One of my marketing employees, Anne, had a party at her home for the fourth of July. "You have a beautiful home Anne." I said as I stepped into her home. "Thank you, I'm glad you could make it." Anne replied. "Ever...
Anne had worked in the Royal Hotel in Inverness for two years, since she was fifteen. She had left school and was now eighteen. She worked as a chambermaid and she noticed a guest who had been there a few days. He was an Englishman and Anne had sneaked a look at the register, to find what his name was. He was Roger Smart, he was 37 years old and he came...
From Part 2, we have a late checkout for 2:00 and are all sleeping when we hear "Housekeeping" I looked at the alarm clock, it's 2:15, I call out to housekeeping "My meeting is almost over, 5 minutes." We heard an "OK" in response. We scramble to get dressed and Cindy hands Anne a pair of running shorts and a loose crop top t-shirt to wear. Anne goes to h...
Jacob was the first to awake the next morning. Diffuse light slanted through the window and bathed the bed the three shared in a halo of brightness. He briefly gazed at his friend Bobby sleeping contentedly to the left of Anne. But his focus was soon entirely upon the lovely Chinese woman lying next to him. Asleep, she was practically angelic. Her features w...
Paul parked the car and he and Anne walked into the lobby of the apartment block. They took the lift to the sixth floor and Paul used the key to let themselves into the flat Anne had borrowed for the evening from their very close friend Jane. As the front door closed behind them, Anne gave a quiet laugh and reminded Paul of the last time they had been alone...
