"I've never been a gambling man. You do understand that don't you?" I just nodded my head agreeably. "You see, I'm a respected man, and you, well you're a respected fighter. This means we have a beautiful business relationship right here." I simply nodded again, ironic how he'd called me respected. He handed me a brown envel... More..

Creative Writing > Memoirs My true garden story: 77 of 298

Love Hurts If I talked to you would you talk back me? Or would you screw up your face and simply walk away. How many times have I tried but choked coming within a few feet of you?
