At this time of day, her brown eyes are already fixed at the clock by the cashier's corner. For Damaris, heading home has always been the best part of her work week and it was nearly 4pm before she gets off work. Being a sales attendee at a book shop is a good job, spending time with books has always been her idea of spending a day and even quite enjoyable...
The key on the rose trellis was easier to find. It was mid day on the 27th of July. I had been gone one day shy of 4 weeks and had cut it close. Laura would probably come in sometime during the night and spend until Saturday the 31st with me. As I entered through the back door I saw the telephone on the kitchen wall. Having made the commitment to take Laura...
Chapter 4: Mrs. P Walter, our van driver and general handyman looked puzzled when I said I would ride along to the flower wholesaler. Priscilla had not arrived so I left her a note to explain that we would be back soon. I told Walter that I had not had time to prepare a list of what we needed. I had not slept well and had trouble concentrating. "You don...
*Before... "Spencer you don't have to pay me now I got off like four times, that's never happened to me." "I do, we had a deal and you missed fares and tips." He actually smiled at me. "Okay but under protest." I stepped up and kissed him my first kiss with anyone ever and Steven kissed me back and it became really passionate. We actually kiss walked to...
Wendy Chapter 5 Mrs. P re-enactment Monday and Tuesday passed without incident. I avoided Sandy and Benney. Or rather, I avoided seeking them out. My first encounter with Benney had been a chance meeting but other contacts with both he and Sandy had been initiated by me. On Wednesday I ran ‘butt heads’ into Sandy. I had a habit of walking with my head down...
It happened three weeks ago, my name is Josh and I took my last final after my third year at UW and had 10 days before I started my summer intern job. My friend Ryan finished on the same day. Two hours after the final we left for his parents' house across the state. We planned to spend the weekend there and take in his little brother's high school graduation...
Greta: A name formerly reserved by me to be in the same category as the names Helga, Bertha and Ethel. A name that promised me nothing interesting, nothing of beauty. All that changed the morning I met Franz' daughter. Her head peeked around the edge of the door, showing very little indication that I'd woken her up. "Is Franz here?" I asked, kind of ashamed...
Dear Reader, Thank you for being so patient with me, below you will find an updated version of Chapter 1 of Madelyn. I have expanded it, as I'm reworking the chapters, to make them longer, with additional information. Also, I've moved the location from Oregon to Northern California, along the border between Oregon and California. I felt this to be better fo...
As the sun beamed through the window to his face, Jacob slowly crawled out of bed. Walking down the hall, the reality of his situation hits him harder than before. "I'm a prisoner." He thinks to himself. "Trapped in an unknown land at an unknown location. So what if my bed feels like sleeping on a cloud? The best prisoners either don't know they are or don...
My stepdaughter Julie stumbled in through the front door of my house, and she was dressed in a yellow short skirt, a white top, and a faux fur coat. In short, she dressed like a hooker even though I overheard her protesting her virginity to a boyfriend on the telephone last week. She is a 5'3" blonde with a round bottom that protrudes out of the backside of...
