I cant remember how it happened, but I do remember the conversation. Collin and I had the same hobby of working at the wood shop in the center. He was...t as advanced as me in his skills, mainly because he only used the space to try and charm the girls who worked up here. We were good friends. We talked often and hung out sometimes. I hadnt seen him around as much, so it was a nice surprise when he started showing up again. One night we both were working pretty late and he was in a bad mood. He. "I love the old ball and chain." Kids?" I asked."Three." That's nice. Kids are a great thing. They bring life into perspective. All those great plans you had for yourself when you were young, you'd gladly give them all up in exchange for having happy, healthy kids." That's the truth," he said."I bet you'd give anything to keep something from happening to Teddy, Lois and Jeffrey. Louise too for that matter."I said it as casually as I would mention it was getting dark outside.His head jerked in. He'd sat sketching her as she'd worked behind the counter, capturing the smile on her face that she had for each and every customer that came in. She'd noticed it while he was too occupied to realize she was standing there, putting on the finishing touches."How much?" she'd asked.She'd startled him. "What?" For the sketch." Oh, not for sale," he'd said not meaning to make it sound like he was being rude. "But I will give it to you," he smiled handing her the finished work.Just before leaving,. The phone sex they have makes even me blush. I've made transcripts of some of the things that will tip the scales in your favor if a judge hears them. What are you going to do?" Nothing until after my brother and his family comes from Wyoming and leaves again. He doesn't need to know about this." She may still keep doing this to you." Can't be helped. That's the way I want it. Can't be any worse than what she has already done. I'll just keep a lid on things. Different subject. May I borrow your.
