Another good chapter with just a few nits:

having babies. "Evangeline (space in wrong place)

in New York. " (extra space)

Just some questions and observations:
I don't think women talked about sex that openly at that time. Then again, maybe some loose women did.
Did they have condoms then? I don't know when they were invented.

Story kept me interested, good work. Antia

    Hi Anita, so glad you are following along with my story. Thank you for catching my goofs. I will fix them. Yes, condoms were not popular during WWI but became very popular in WWII. In fact, the military made an all out campaign for the soldiers with posters, films, etc. The average citizen might not have been as aware but anyone like Sally who was a rather loose person and liked to intertain the service men would have known about them. About sex talk...I think close friends...especially the ones who are cheating together would talk about sex. Their mothers would have been from the Roaring 20's generation and that was a pretty free time with morals for a lot of women and men.

The chapter kept my interest from beginning to end. The story advanced well and created visuals from your wording. Nice job of building suspense in this chapter and for the chapters that will follow. Continued success!

Wow! This is getting so intriguing, with every chapter written thus far you have pulled the reader in. Very well written. As a reviewer there is only one typo or is this statement meant to read: tangle you motor or tangle your motor. None-the-less it does not take away the excitement nor the wait for the next installment. Can't wait, as I do love a good storyline.

    I am so glad you are enjoying my work. Thanks for catching the typo. Sometimes, my fingers have a mind of their own. :o) I tend to type really fast when "the flow" of the story hits me.

This has got me wondering what is going on. What about his wife, where is she? Is she really shopping with her friend? This kept my attention.

This story grabs my attention from the start. The story holds my attention with the conversation of sex between two characters. The writer takes the reader else where as the writer does a good job of transitioning the events. The story is well balanced as the pace is nice and steady. The writer brings this chapter to an interesting ending as the writer sets up for the next chapter. I think he choked(smile) Good job.
