Yeah he used me ... but i likely could have run from him. Like i mentioned in the previous comment, he treated me badly thinking my fear of him made me stay. He didn't understand that i stayed because i cared about him. i cannot not care, even when i know the truth of what he did finally. i still care because he was broken, and hurt. And i couldn't save him ... that guilt still lays on my heart. I guess a twisted version of Stockholm Syndrome. Thank you, i will pass that to Michael. All the best to you also. Thanks for your comments and your support. it matters very much to me. xo

Hold onto your family ... do what feels right for you. xo

they see only their hurt, their need not what they do to others vampires hope you're okay, Gary.

after my poetry: Street Words, this is my first piece of prose on GA. it's old and not very good ... luckily i have a wonderful editor and teacher. But i leave this as a reminder of how i've improved. My Husband, @MichaelS36 offers His own version of this story on his blog. Thank you again for reading and for leaving your thoughts. i appreciate them very much.

it's the truth for too many of us .. thank you for reading and for leaving your thoughts.

Nothing wrong with a time limit .. if you work 3 hours.. honestly.. then okay.. do the same tomorrow.

good morning, boss ... you're smiling .. are you feeling better?

hi Mike.. thank for reading and for your comments. Thanks for mentioning Jeff. You know what you said, made me sort of sad because i don't think he ever understood. Jeff treated me pretty badly, i think because he thought it was my fear that kept me with him. It wasn't that at all, i stayed because i knew he cared about me in his way ... and cared about him. Thanks again, Mike.

Nice chapter, C.

Good morning, A!!!

Currently working to get Changes, Again ready to post. Mulling over a scifi piece ... writing some test chapters for that. Prompts look interesting as always and yes, i did miss seeing them but enjoyed the Anthologies.

abominable adjective | uh-BAH-muh-nuh-bul Definition 1 formal : worthy of or causing disgust or hatred : detestable 2 : very bad or unpleasant The tendency to hate evil omens is a vital part of the history of abominable. The word descends from the Latin verb abominari, which means "to deprecate as an ill omen" or "to detest"; abominari itself comes from ab- plus omin- ("from an omen"). When English speakers adopted abominable in the 14th century, they used it to express their disgust over evil or truly detestable things—and for 500 years that's the way things stood. In the 17th century, the word's meaning moderated, so that Scottish novelist William Black could write in A Princess of Thule (1873), "Sheila had nothing to do with the introduction of this abominable decoration." Other descendants of abominari are abominate ("to hate or loathe intensely") and abomination ("something odious or detestable").

Good night.

this isn't COTT ... you need to be over there to post there.

Night Thorn!!

time for dessert ...

Are You okay, Sir? It's kind of a long drive isn't it?

?

Hehe ... nice. Nicely developing characters they play off each other beautifully. I am a sucker for funny, hot, older guys...

Your relies are usually fun ... but then so are you, C!

This stuff cannot be liked ... i hope it helps others see somehow. For many street kids leaving is their only way out ... many are put out like garbage. It's sad to think that the street is the best option for anyone. Thanks for reading and for your comments. xo

Thank you. No tears, she wouldn't like that. She'd like to know she inspired me and maybe through this, others. So hearts all the way! Thank you for reading and for your comments. They mean a lot to me.
