No one was around, since it was mid afternoon.“But Ruchi madam, I need something to remember you or I will forget you in ten days” he said with a ...icked smile. He put his arms around me and we started kissing and fondling each other.I broke the kiss and said, “Is this good enough?”“Not really, I need something material, so I’ll take this,” and he swiftly removed my robe, leaving me naked in the open. I stood stunned for a few seconds as he held my hand.“Gopal, give it back,” I said, trying to. Her cute, flustered curtsy got quite a fewappreciative whistles from the audience, causing her face to turn a deepcrimson.

Fiore seemed to pull a saw from nowhere,causing her volunteer assistant's eyes to reach the approximate size ofsaucers. Waving the tool at the audience, Fiore positioned. I buckled down and brought my grades up to a three-point average. I was careful not to get caught smoking and stayed out of trouble. That is until I had the truck.When I turned seventeen, the age I am now, I stopped listening to Mom and ran wild. I picked up a few tickets, started drinking and smoking weed. This was like the previous times I was picked up for smoking, the cops were taking me home instead of to jail, but that was going to stop.The officer that took me home told Mom it would be. The smell of his hairy warm body intoxicated her. People had always liked him--everybody liked her dog; and sometimes they told her she should enter in shows, try to win prizes and money but she always said no to the very idea. She merely wanted a companion for her lonely hours, which weren't many but weren't pleasant to pass alone. Yes, this was how she would appreciate Duke. This was how she would use her prize dog who kept his purely amateur standing: she would be his female lover. He would.
