I sighed and paid attention to where I was going.Finally, I had worked my way around to the edge of a small clearing. Powerful magics had been worked ...here - I could feel it through my boots. Now, though, there was no magic at work, but a power greater still, it seemed. At the center of the clearing stood a stone post twice my own height, with an iron ring set in it. Chains hung from the ring, stretching down to a lithe figure standing at the post’s base.I sighed again, sheathed my battleaxe. "Jen cut him a cold stare, and yelled, "Not tonight toots. Get yourclothes right now and get changed into the pink flowery one pieceswimsuit I want to see that first or I will smack you on the behind."Feeling like a little girl Jim did what Jen told him and put on theswimsuit, and he strutted down the hallway. Then Jen told him give metwirl as you walk, which Jim quickly did. This continued for over anhour as he showed off all of the clothes that were bought for Jen. Ashard as it was to admit. Anyways should we go?”He took my hand and kissed it then let it go, “I should check the house to make sure that nobody’s out there first. I am still in my clothes after all. And if someone were to see me I could tell them that you asked me to stay because you didn’t want me to fall asleep behind the wheel.”He soon left. After the door closed I started hyperventilating. I tried to calm down. Nothing seemed to work until I heard footsteps coming towards my room. Then I forced myself to at least. And for her mother I gifted a piece of jewelry, though she wasn’t impressed -- impossible to win her over I've since discovered. Oh well…At this point I should note that my in-laws are Asian, and their English is not good. As I’ve learned this isn’t such a bad thing! I’m sure you readers wouldn’t mind not being able to fully communicate with your in-laws…But as they say, actions speak louder than words. And the gift I received from her mother left me quite speechless…My future mother-in-law.
