It had indeed been a hell of a lot of work, her detractors (and there had been many) telling her the house wasn't worth it, but she knew they'd all been wrong. She loved the house, her friends loved the house and the little unexpected "...
After the emotional breakfast over my employment status, bodies got dressed and filtered out of the house. The twins said they had wrangled use of an aged but usable practice beam from the collection at their gym. They might be able to get a friend to deliver it today. I put in an appearance at the lab, but there was nothing going on, and I was thinking may...

Carolyn had seemingly fallen off the face of the earth. His mother had tried calling her several times with no answer. She had been about to call the police when Charles had come through her door. A few unanswered text messages later Charles had decided he needed to drive over to Carolyn's and check on her personally, much to the relief of his mother. When...

"I like Ryan, he's fun." Elunara sat on the platform, happily sketching beside Susan. "Do you have a new toy to play with?" Susan giggled. "Ah, sister of mine, you know me too well." "This seems like a flip from how he started out." Susan added detail to her painting, dipping her brush in her cup as she went along. "Yeah, well, he's coming around to my...

My first wife started cheating on...
