An Ordinary Man's Life Chapter One ------------------------------ I want to apologize for this long introduction. In case you will read it you may find out it was necessary. This is the first part, a very small part, of a very long story I'm on the way to write. It covers a man's life over three decades. I know a lot of you readers hate long stories but i...
"Did you mean that?" Frank said looking into Jen's blue eyes. He gave her a tender kiss on the lips. "All that you said?" "No," Jen said simply. "I was dicking with you." Time seemed to stop. "What?"
