(Continued from yesterday. Click here to go back to the beginning.)
Jace tensed and his heart beat faster.
Jennifer swallowed. “This is really good.”
“Thanks.”
The page after that was a collage of Jennifer. She was cute, sophisticated, sexy, humble, studious, and numerous other qualities for which there are no words.
Jace panicked. “Sorry.” He fumbled with words. “I didn’t, uh, mean to, um, stalk you– or anything.”
Jennifer didn’t look angry or scared as she looked him in the eye. She took a breath. “Will you kiss me?”
Jace froze, like a deer mesmerized by a pair of headlights.
As if in a dream he touched his lips to hers, soft and full. She smelled good. He put his arm around her, and his hand passed over the strap of her bra. Her body was warm and there. She put her hand on his leg.
A moment later, he counted her eyelashes. He touched his thumb to her eyebrow and traced it around, and Jennifer snuggled her cheek into Jace’s palm. Her skin was soft. It was smooth. And she looked happy.
“I like you, Jace,” she managed. Then, with a lost smile, “I wish I wasn’t moving.”
“You’re moving?”
“Yes, to Seattle.”
“That’s pretty far,” he said.
“Yes, it is.”
“It sure is.”
“Can you sit with me for a little while?”
The next day, Jace had to walk on the grass as he passed by the house, because the green and white moving van was taking up the whole sidewalk. He hoped to catch a glimpse of Jennifer, but she was nowhere to be seen.
Now when Jace walks by the house, he sometimes sees two young children playing in the yard. Jace has Jennifer’s new address, and they’ve exchanged one or two letters. But he doesn’t know whether he’ll ever see her again. He figures, even if you’re an artist, sometimes you draw dead. Still he imagines he sees Jennifer sitting under the pines, reading or humming softly a tune Jace doesn’t know.
(The end.)

A well written post that covers important legal
points. Legal awareness plays a key role in avoiding disputes and ensuring compliance with the law.
Thanks for sharing such helpful legal information.
I think that everything wrote was actually very reasonable.
But, what about this? what if you added a little information?
I ain’t suggesting your content is not good., but suppose
you added something to possibly grab folk’s attention? I mean Pine
(part 4) is a little boring. You could glance at Yahoo’s front page and note how
they create post titles to get viewers to open the
links. You might try adding a video or a picture
or two to grab readers excited about everything’ve written. In my opinion, it could bring your blog a little livelier.
Hello! Would you mind if I share your blog with my facebook group?
There’s a lot of folks that I think would really enjoy your content.

Today, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iphone and tested to see
if it can survive a 40 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube
sensation. My apple ipad is now broken and she has 83
views. I know this is completely off topic but I had to share it with
someone!
Hello! I’m at work browsing your blog from my new iphone

Hi there! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for
this site? I’m getting fed up of WordPress because I’ve had issues with
hackers and I’m looking at options for another platform.
I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.
Woah! I’m really loving the template/theme of this site.
It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s very hard to get that “perfect balance” between user friendliness and appearance.
I must say you’ve done a fantastic job with this. Additionally, the blog loads super
fast for me on Internet explorer. Exceptional Blog!
