I like it well enough already, so no apologies, please. I don't konw what's going to happen, but I suspect it will be surprising. A beautiful woman and Bob, whose bad luck may just be turning into very good luck. :)

    Thank you so much, Phyllis, for taking time to read the first part of my story. Your kind words and generous review are greatly appreciated. You can thank yourself for me leaving things so that they can go many different directions. I have learned to like trying to figure out what comes next. :-)

I didn't find this boring at all. And look forward to part two.

This story has solid character development, believable dialogue. Am anxious to see how this plays out between Libby, Bob, and Officer Watson.

Our character is a hard-working fellow. One day off a month? Isn't this a violation of the 40-hour week law? Nevertheless. Can't say yet whether the day-off will turn out for the better.

If we are to believe that everything happens for a reason, this incident is no exception. However, it is not said whether the reason is good or not.

But so far, with the invitation accepted, something augurs well.

Some of us don't mind the length if the story holds our attention, which yours does very easily. This sounds like the beginning of a love story, but I'm sure there is drama waiting around the corner. I'm guessing she is either divorced or maybe a widow. We'll have to wait for part 2 to see if I'm right.

A well written story, with interesting character descriptions and dialogue. The story line is strong and you made good use of descriptive language. I spotted one or two errors-hope you don't mind. Para 8, the Officer shone his flashlight, Para 11, for safety's sake. Four lines up from end, our bellies full. I look forward to the next part. Faye

    Thank you so much for taking time to read part one of my story. Your kind words, suggestions, and generous review are greatly appreciated. I especially thank you for pointing out my mistakes. I'm a little shocked that I made two of these blunders, but that's what happened when my fingers out run my pea brain. :-)

I like it pretty well after part one. Something about the way you wrote this part makes me not trust Libby. I was waiting for something more dramatic to happen, but you did just as well building your characters in this part. Good start to a story, I'm looking forward to reading the other part.

I loved your story, I'm anxiously awaiting your follow up to this well told and articulately scribed story! It was good from the opening lines to the end, the characters were clearly defined, the storyline was well structured, the tension, though light, was maintained beautifully till the end, I enjoyed it immensely! Well done, Blessings, Roy.

I sense a romance in the making here, or some kind of connection. I don't think I would have been nearly so kind with some one had smashed in the back of my car. Can't wait to see where this goes. Well written
