The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Francine frowned unhappily. “How is my family selfish?”

“Don’t you think it’s selfish to keep Corinne tied to your family? I mean, Jeremy has been missing for three years, yet Corinne still had to raise his kids and run the company, giving her no time to start her life afresh. What’s even sadder about the whole thing is the two of them never even got legally married.”

Francine knew Jason was right, but she still retorted through gritted teeth, “Jeremy is missing, not dead! He’ll come back one day.”

Jason took one step toward her. “What if I hit on you instead?”

“What? Did you say you were going to hit me? As if I’d believe you’ll be stupid enough to do that here,” said Francine fearlessly.
