Everyone knew those truths.

But Kenneth couldn't bear the thought that he might fade from her world.

After a prolonged silence, his voice was tender, "I'm sorry, Dorothy. I've been a burden for too long, right." "You don't have to put yourself down like that," she replied. "I just hope that someone as good-hearted as you will get the happy ending you deserve." "Yeah, I will. I'm going to spend smore twith Eleanor and then I'm going to propose," Kenneth said, his gaze fixed on her, never allowing his tumult of emotions to spill into harsh words. He always honored all her wishes. "Would you cto the wedding?" he asked.

"I might. If I'm around, I'll be there." He nodded, "Okay." After he left the cemetery, Dorothy lingered a while longer, speaking softly to her mother's gravestone, "I'll cback on the day of the verdict." Descending the hill, Dorothy didn't hail a taxi back to her apartment. Instead, she headed straight to the supermarket. She needed a drink.

Men are drawn to challenges, after all.

"Miss, may I have the pleasure of buying you a drink?" The first suitor approached swiftly, not-so-subtly flashing his exclusive credit card.

Dorothy merely glanced at it, not chasing him away but not engaging either. She just downed her drink and took out her phone, dialing a number.

"The number you have dialed is not in service..." As the man realized she wasn't interested, he left with his ego slightly bruised.

The second and third attempts by other men yielded the sresults.

Dorothy kept her head down, stubbornly dialing the snumber over and over. If it didn't go through, she'd take another drink and try again.

Finally, when she didn't know which attempt it was, a young man, probably a college student, approached, "Flying solo tonight, miss?" It was then she finally looked up, her voice tinged with inebriation, "Got a cell phone?" "Of course!" Visit englishto read full content.
