There was a small table in the way, but she thought that if she could bend over it and reach down to the bottom shelf on the wall behind the table, sh... could just about reach the box with the stamps in it. She proceeded to do just that, laying her upper torso down on the table top and reaching down on the other side of the table. It was at this point that fate ACTUALLY played its hand, regardless of what I said 390 words ago. I just wanted to keep you interested. First, her necklace fell. I walked up to Beth's door and rang the doorbell. She had a nice home in a nice section of the city with a large yard and sizeable driveway. None of the neighbors saw me drive up the driveway in my crappy car. A few moments passed and door opened and a 50-something man wearing a slightly ajar robe said, "You must be Jae" and I said, "....and you're not Beth. I'm sorry, but I think that there's been a miscommunication. I'll be going now." and he said, "No, Beth is here, I'm Greg, her pathetic. " Among ourselves we consider it developing a personality. Our creators never gave it a thought," he said."Then the same name thing is out. I'll admit I've been thinking of you as a super complicated and capable computer. From what you're saying it seems you are actually a person. You are Charlie, and I assume that the other two would allow me to name them also." I'm sure they would be proud of it if you did," he said."Can you ask them so I can be certain?" I already have and they agreed it. Erica was still unique. Everything and I mean everything, would be great for 6 or 7 weeks and then she’d get moody, say she needed her space and give me the old ‘it’s not you it’s me’ bit and we’d break up. If I didn’t know Erica I would have been upset but she searched for different things when we started high school and it seemed as though she didn’t want to get pinned down without having the chance to explore. So we did the break up bit, I let her do her thing and in a month she would want.
