"This is a story about a holiday trip. Part one just introduces everyone and sets the scene. All the fun starts later"
This is part two, or should I say there is a long story that leads up to this taking place. I met Maria out clubbing when I was in my early twenties, and she was just eighteen. She was tiny,...
"Jack and Cynthia talk about Jack being a dad, then work calls"
The following morning when I woke up, I looked at Cynthia. She was still sound asleep but had the most peaceful smile on her face. I had a strange feeling that last night may have been the night Cynthia had...
"Jack tells the boss what's wrong then Jack finds out Cynthia has been in or a secret"
Tuesday morning, I was up before dawn. I couldn’t sleep. I noticed a major problem with the new project just before I left work. If I’m right, we are twelve feet on the adjacent property. That will heat the hotline...
"Cynthia shows her real feelings"
I had just put my briefcase on my desk when Nancy entered my office. She said that Mrs. Timbrook wanted another meeting with me at ten-thirty. I told her I’d check my schedule; Nancy laughed as she left my office....

"Carl and Cindy come over to celebrate with Beth and Colling"
The witching hour was approaching and the bottles were upside down in the chilling buckets. Sometime during the night, Carl and I decided that my life with Beth had been planned. He finally convinced Cindy that he had to go...
"Collin keeps his promise and meets Beth the next day"
Back at the hotel, I packed my bags and paid my bill. I went to a diner and grabbed some dinner. I wasn’t hungry, I was worried. Beth, my Beth, such a loving woman, and for those assholes to put...
"Michael and Loretta try to get everything ready to move"
When I woke up on Sunday, I didn’t smell the coffee. I thought we forgot to set the timer. I thought I set it for nine, but it was only seven-fifteen when I looked at the clock. I growled at...
"Michael and Loretta show their deepening love for each other"
As we sat and finished the beer, I was thankful I had taken the tubs to the car. Loretta had zapped my strength. I hoped by the time we got to my, our, apartment I would regain some strength. Thank...
