Once I was surprised to meet her at a party hosted by my boss. It seemed my boss’s wife was her school classmate. Mala looked very sexy in a pink sa...i and a very thin blouse through which I could make out her lacy bra. I noticed she had been drinking wine, and saw her on the dance floor flirting seductively with some guys. After the party she asked me to give her a lift back to her home. This was what I had always dreamed and longed for. When we reached her place my Aunt urged me to come inside. Christine had asked for a closed casket funeral, but they'd somehow convinced her that the beautiful boy looked so peaceful, lying there like he was merely asleep. The animal had been at his neck but had left his face intact. Let's enjoy it one last time.Console, console, console. They all blathered at her incessantly about how they understood, how they would be there for her if there was anything she needed. But she heard the whispers too."Honestly! Who lets a five year old wander around alone. As the guard company ran from noon to noon for your duty days, this meant that we were getting started around 1300 hours, and it was possible to get plastered before sundown.As the rounds of beer were consumed, the hostesses serving our table kept changing, but around number four, this one young lady stared to hang over my shoulder asking if I would by her a drink or two.I finally looked back over my shoulder to take a long look, and discovered that she was just one of the most beautiful women. Well, she would now. She heard the garage door opener engage across the yard from her. They were home. She wiped the tears from her eyes, and made to get up and go into the house. She’d reminisce about her other man, the one who used to be her man, another time. She did miss the lug for sure, that would never change. She hoped he was all right, well, as all right as he could be in a place like that. **** “Hi,” he said. He threw his briefcase on to the dinette table and wrapped his arms around.
