Then one day, my last year of high school, I do not know what came over me. Mary and I were siting outside talking. Maybe I had a little too much to d...ink I do not know. But I came right out and told Mary that I wanted make love to her. I wanted to be her secret lover. She told me to leave. I was heart broken. We did not talk for two weeks. I did not even see her. Her husband acted normal around me but I never saw Mary. Then her husband went out of town again. He wanted to cut the grass. The. I started calling his name and somehow the house seemed hollow. I looked all over the house and didn't find him. I went out to the garage then. If there was anything that he loved as much as he loved me, it was that car. His Mustang had always been a close rival for his affection.That was how I realized how bad things were. It wasn't just that the car was gone, because Kevin drove the car every chance he could. But his tools and all of his car wash supplies and even the Shelby posters he had on. But I figured if that’s what he likes fine we rented our boats and started unloading the gear. Jen was very talkative and I found myself unloading most of the equipment by the time I got it down to the launch I was beat. Jen did not want to burden our new friend to much so the bulk of the gear went into my boat we left the launch and were off as we paddled it became clear that Kevin was extremely well built his shirt got wet and stuck to him while we paddled I knew he worked out but this was. The volunteer program took off because Rita Fricke and Madeline Dixon had been talking it up among their circle of friends. Suddenly, there was a women’s reading group and a friends of the library committee.As a result of all the volunteer help, Ruth was now able to actually perform her head librarian duties in a forty-two and a half hour week. In addition, book circulation was up by twenty-five percent. Ruth was thrilled with that, because the more the library was used, the easier it was to.
