    Thank you for the suggestion, drp, and I'll try to include it. It may take a little time, though, since I have already written most of Secrets2.

    Thanks, drs. I'm glad that you seem to be looking forward to Secrets2.

    Thank you for your comment and letting me know what you thought of my effort. This isn't the 'usual' shifter type story and I wasn't sure how it would be accepted. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

    I'm glad you enjoyed this story and you're looking forward to Secrets2. You've got to realize that when Michael calls Devin a hero, it's not because he thinks Devin is seeking fame or glory. In a way, he's teasing him about jumping in and saving someone from whatever dangerous situation they might have been in at the time. Michael actually admires that Devin does those things.

    Thank you, Gary, and I'm glad you thought this little story might have been an actual encounter with Carlos. He indeed will be sorely missed.

    Thank you, Terry, and I'm glad you thought I captured what Carlos would have been like. No, he would never have taken the easy route and I'm glad you noted that as he was doing the same thing during his journey to the afterlife.

    Thank you, Defiance, and I'm glad you thought I captured some of Carlos' idiosyncrasies.

    The Stranger Copyright 2024 by billwstories I was sitting in the coffee shop having my morning cup of Cappuccino, even though none of the others that I usually chatted with were there yet. For that reason, I was spending my time sipping my drink and looking out the large window at the front of the shop. That’s when I noticed a guy on a motorcycle pull up in front of the building, park his Harley, get off his bike, and take off his helmet. After he placed the helmet under his
  16. A stranger rides into town on his motorcycle and pulls up in front of the local coffee shop. Once inside, he starts up a conversation with one of the locals.

    I think Barry likes the boys and just feels Devin is a little odd, since Mac doesn't do the same things. If they both wore oversized clothing, then he might get suspicious.

    Chapter 1 S2

    Yes, their are many surveillance methods they would have to worry about, but let's hope that doesn't become the situation and the boys are careful. I don't believe Barry is suspicious, only picking on Devin, but Mac may convince him that isn't necessary and there are other ways to handle his concerns. And Happy New Year to you and all my other readers. I'm looking forward to a very rewarding 2024.

    Chapter 1 S2

    Grandpas are always wiser. They have years of experience when making decisions. Yes, Mac has always been a bit shy. Devin is more outgoing and vociferous than he is. I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter and Happy New Year to you as well.

    Chapter 1 S2

    It's not that he can no longer transition at college, he just has to be careful and not do it multiple times around the same group of people. Eventually, someone is liable to catch on. And as Devin and told Michael a few times, Gramps and Pops have their ways of finding out things or getting things done, so that's even a better reason for him to be careful.
  21. You're welcome, Chris, and a Happy New Year to you as well. I hope you continue to enjoy this story.

    Chapter 1 S2

    Yes, @Al Norris Devin was scolded about his behavior during the previous academic year, but he has to learn to not take too many chances in front of the same group of people. Otherwise, they might catch on to what he is, and that would lead to major problems. I'm sure he'll listen, because if he doesn't there are only three possibilities: 1) his secret will be discovered; 2) his family finds out and the determine their own type of punishment for his behavior; or 3) he gets lucky and neither the family nor anyone else realizes what he's done. Will see if he listens or which of those three options result from his actions.
  23. In employment there are three types of termination. 1) Voluntary - you decide to leave your position for your own reasons; 2) involuntary - your employer removes you from your position, in other words you're fired; and 3) mutual - you and your employer agree to end your employment.
  24. From the Latin terminatus (past participle of terminare), to the verb terminus (to set boundaries, limit) to the late Middle English terminate.
  25. 2023 is about to terminate and we will move into 2024. Happy New Year to everyone!
