“Whoa! Say It Ain’t So!”
Laura and Ben have been dating for the past couple months. One night, they were strolling hand-in-hand in the moonlight, when Ben came to an abrupt stop, and blurted out that he has been dying to tell her something.
“What could it be? The three little words (I heart U), or its not too shabby first cousin, the four little words (I really like U)? ” she pondered. Laura took a deep breath and began to listen to Ben with her fluttering heart in her hands.
Her premonition came true, sort of. Laura got the first cousin, with (o no!) its evil posse (o yes, the big BUT). After she regained her composure, she did what any Diva would do. Laura gave Ben what he deserved, and strutted out of his life forever.
