MEMORIES
Sometimes Ernestine’s lonely days were filled with memories of the past. Back when her head was in the clouds and her thoughts were full of romantic wishes. An excerpt from Defining Moments….
Thinking about romance always catapulted Ernestine back to that time. And to the moment she had first set her eyes upon Jack Holleran.
They had talked and danced that first evening, and she had fought the feelings he stirred up in her.
She knew she couldn’t compare this handsome young man to her husband. Her wonderful husband who had actually left before they’d really begun. If she’d had more time with Winston, she was sure that she wouldn’t have been tempted by Jack.
But she knew that her rationalizations were just that.
When the evening ended, Jack had kissed her. It hadn’t been a lengthy kiss, and in retrospect, she could almost describe it as a kiss between friends. On the lips, of course. But still…
She tried not to think about him after that, but when he called a few days later, she’d agreed to meet him for drinks. And she didn’t take Betsy with her.
So what happened next could only be a betrayal of massive proportions.
This was an excellent post! Thanks for sharing this today.
