Lawns struggle for survival against the relentless onslaught of summer, the buildings wilt, and young Bill Simos is rocking a Big Wheel down the empty sidewalk. He manages to gain incredible speed despite the misfit between his body and the roto-molded plastic vehicle.<BR/>He turns a corner on two wheels, and looks confident as he careens around the corner, and crashes to the ground. He skids and there is the sensation of cotton ripping. <BR/>He manages to get out of the wreckage, but his pants are torn and there is blood. He is too tough to cry, but feels relief when a soft warm hand is placed on his shoulder. He looks up into the angelic face of a strange and beautiful woman. <BR/>In the following moments, the world changes. He is taken into a small cool house, doctored, and love flashes from his heart throughout his body causing changes he would actually have enjoyed, had he still been wearing his pants, not to mention standing in the presence of a woman, and been recently seen wrecking his new wheels. <BR/>She is gentle, soft, and sweet to him as she leads him through a transition in his life and emerging as a young man. <BR/>This, he will recall, is the best sixteenth birthday ever."Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07630879566951682512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28789476258550715.post-24710473536836701882009-04-05T01:10:00.000-05:002009-04-05T01:10:00.000-05:00Haha, yeah maybe.
