And then it got worse.Larry had been in the Navy for four years and when he got home he started having parties and inviting people over for dinner to ...enew old friendships and catch up on everything that had gone on while he was gone. Annie, curse her black heart, used these occasions to torment the men, married or single, who attended and Larry, poor schmuck, never noticed.After about six months of this a couple of guys tried to tell him that he needed to talk to her, but Larry laughed it off.. "I am dead serious," I told her. "I've lived here for fouryears now. I can't believe we never ran into each otherbefore."Just then she burst out with laughter. It took me a fewseconds to realize what I had said. I started laughinghysterically, too. "But we have tonight," she said. Shestifled her laughter and said, "Yea, it is strange.

Standing on your toes like that, you're a full six feet tall to the top of that fake blonde hair, and you're about a size 4 dress. Now, let's get you into your clothes."The "clothes" were. I decided to call mom."I thought you'd be calling me sweetie. Yes she told us." Mom told me in an upbeat un-surprised tone of voice."B-But mother, d-do you know what'd be like for me to claim I'm the father? W-Why I-I'd l-look like the b-biggest fool." I understand dear. You know how she likes to tease you a bit from time to time. But she thinks telling the truth might be the best thing." T-The truth?" Yes! We'd have the pastor announce in church that due to problems at home Betty yielded to.
