Saturday 22-Sept 2007

Around midday, he was in the bathroom watching Tom and Jerry putting tiles in the shower. They knew what they were doing. The power was off while for a few minutes while one of the girls worked on the main power board with her dad, so he grabbed the chance to eat a hot dog. He heard a chainsaw. A chainsaw? This he had to see. He wandered outside and discovered that the chainsaw was in the hands of another person he'd never have expected to see. Andrew Johnson from St Joseph's turned to him with a big smile on his face. "Hey Chris, how are you?"

"Andrew? What are you doing here?"

"Well, I've been training with Lisa, and she's been keeping me well informed of events, and when we heard about this, we just couldn't not be here." He introduced Chris to his mates. Chris could see that he was going to have to revise his opinion of St Joseph's. Andrew and his two mates were geared up with climbing spikes, harnesses, rope, and a mix of chainsaws, both small and big. They clearly knew what they were doing. Not what he'd expected from the nancy boys at St Joseph's.

He laughed at himself. His parents had thought it was the other parents who were going to be surprised. "Enjoy the journey," they'd said!

He found Lisa, and together they watched Andrew nip up a tree and start trimming the dangerous branches on it, while his mates pulled on a rope to guide the branches down. "Lisa, what's going on?"

"After we met at the dance, he called me back the next week, said it was off with Thui, and so he could train with me without upsetting a girlfriend. So we've been training together ever since. That night at the dance, he figured out what the deal was with Shahia from what you said — he got it pretty much nailed too. Anyway, he kept his mouth shut, like he said he would, but when you blew it open last week, he held his own class meeting and told them all. Here, look!"

She showed pulled out a card from her bundle of stuff, and showed him. It was a big A4-size card with a note and signature from at least two hundred people, all in very tiny writing. "Staff and students at St Joseph's, all messages of support for Shahia — isn't that cool?"

"What did Shahia say?"

"Oh, we haven't given it to her yet — we'll do that once the work is done."

Chris shook his head; that was awesome. What more could happen today? But yes, today really was something to be enjoyed.

Andrew abseiled straight down from the branch he was on. Show off! But then he noticed one of the video girls capturing it. If they knew how to mix a good movie, this day was going to become legendary.

Lisa turned and saw Samuel coming out of the garage. He was coated in fine white dust. She ran over to him, and standing in front of him, gave a girlish squeal. "Oh, it's a ghost. Sam's been reincarnated!" Even Sam had to stop work, he was laughing so hard. As Chris went back inside to work, he noticed Bec and Alyssa taking Maria for a walk in her stroller so she could have her nap away from all the noise. He smiled. They deserved a break — they'd been working hard too.

Later in the afternoon, they knew that they were going to finish the bathroom in time. Chris noticed a stream of people asking if they could help, but there was no space for anyone else, just five of them — Quoc and his dad were helping with the building bits, putting new floorboards down, while Tom and Jerry were putting the finishing touches on. He popped out to see what was going on.

Jay and Hassan were finished, he found, and he went and leaned on their new post while they proudly looked on. He smiled at them and went to find Lisa. When he found her, Lisa gave him a look of mock despair. "It's all done! But no one wants to leave, so we're just making work up. We've been flooding the local recycling station, and we've got a crew working up and down the street tidying up the verge as a way to thank the neighbours for being good sports! But I've still got people looking for work. I just don't know what to do?"

"Hey, how many?"

"Last count was eighty-five people all up. About eighty still here, maybe seventy for the game."

Chris whistled, shaking his head. Those numbers were truly amazing.

"Any hint of rain?"

"No. Lovely out there."

"Right well, get them started on setting up for watching the game." He checked his watch. "It starts in less than an hour."

Lisa looked at him as if he was a dunce. "We've already done that!"

He shook his head. She really did have a problem; what was that joke he'd heard earlier from Georgi, the polish guy working in the garden? "What's wrong with Poland is fatal but not serious." Somehow, that seemed applicable — and he didn't even know who Georgi was — maybe a neighbour?. When he got back inside the bathroom, David was laying the flooring. He looked up, "Give me fifteen minutes, and the bathroom is done."

"Duh? Done? What happened?"

"Oh, lots of people, it just gets done."

He helped him for a little while, and then he went back out to find Lisa. "All right, Lisa, let's get everyone together around the TV."

He went to find Shahia. He found her sitting on her bed. She looked up at him, tired, but he'd seen her much more tired than this. "You know I doubted."

He nodded. "So did I."

She shook her head. "Never again. Chris, this is ... awe-inspiring. What am I going to say to them?"

"Do you want me to try?"

She stood up, with finality in her voice. "No. My job." She came to him and wrapped him up in a big hug. "Stay close to me."

Chris watched as they gathered around the television on the lawn outside. He was glad it was nice weather; you couldn't possibly fit more than twenty people inside Shahia's lounge, and then only if they were all pretty good friends indeed. Several people who had said they had to leave were still hanging around, and showing no signs of leaving. Tom and Jerry, for instance. Chris understood. The feeling was indescribable, this tight feeling of community, and he could see that it had infused everyone. The smiles and laughter, this was even better than at the end of winning a match. Wow.

The lawn was covered in a mass of white t-shirts and singlets with the bold yellow and red logo. Almost everyone, even many adults, were wearing Squad-11 tops. The girls were all wearing the tight singlet form, and he could tell that the guys were appreciating that a lot. He suspected that the Squad-11 tops were going to become quite a treasured possession. His was, if it ever recovered from the slime under the house. Even though it was filthy, he'd refused to even consider changing back to his other t-shirt.

Then he remembered his parent's words, and he checked out the other parents. Sure enough, what he saw there was something he'd remember for a long time. They were all clearly blown away with a mix of pride and amazement. What a feeling! He realised it matched the expression on his face exactly.

Mr Cartwright stood out the front holding an esky. "Attention all members of Squad-11. Here I have beer. You are all welcome to have one. I know many of you aren't, err, of the right age, but after today ... you earned it by your actions. Don't take one if your parents would be upset, okay?"

Australian StoryChapter 30 Squad Eleven

Saturday 22-Sept 2007 The first hint Chris had of just how unusual his day was going to be was when he turned up before dawn to find Jerry already there with his uncle, Tom, backing their truck into Shahia's driveway. Chris spent the next hour or so helping them rip the floor off the bathroom, and pull the shower basin out. By the time they'd done that, they'd taken the toilet out and had to turn the water off. Of course, that was a bit of a problem for everyone else ‑ all those workers...

Australian StoryChapter 5 Welcome to Australia

Monday 12-Mar 2004 Chris had wondered whether that muttered comment about immigrants had something to do with the way Butthead Hanson treated Shahia. He was definitely picking on her. If Chris had any doubts before, there was no doubt that he was, and why, after Shahia's impromptu talk. Everyone in the class had to do one. And everyone hated it. At the beginning of each period, Butthead Hanson would pick someone in the class, give them a subject, and then give them a few minutes to...

Australian StoryChapter 27 Letters

Monday 27-Aug 2007 Shahia stopped at the letterbox to get the mail when they arrived home for their weekly housework session. Chris waited at the door, concerned; she was walking up her path with the strangest expression on her face. When she got to the door, she said, "Chris, there's a letter from Lebanon here." Oh. That could not be good. He relieved her of her bag, took Maria out of the stroller, and then turned to go and sit with Shahia as she read the letter. She was already...

Australian StoryChapter 37 Dinkum Mates

Wed 10-Oct 2007 Chris awoke to see Alyssa, still in her underwear, standing over Maria. He dragged himself upright and went and sat at the little table, stiff all over. Alyssa came over holding Maria, and they sat in his lap. She'd obviously gotten used to what she was wearing. He noticed that Hassan was awake, and smiled at him. This was nice. Not long after that, Shahia woke up. She looked at him and smiled, then hopped out of bed and squeezed into the tiny toilet. Her undies had...

Australian or Danish

As I enter the shop I notice her bending down behind the counter, her arse encased in tight jeans and is firm and neat. Black high heels complete the view as I travel down the back of her thighs and calf muscles, to the end of her very tight leg jeans. Good shape I think to myself, and those heels look wickedly high. She looks up and brushes hair out of her eyes. Mature clear skin, secretary glasses and full lips, mouth slightly open and the hint of a tongue over your white teeth. She stands up...

Australian StoryChapter 7 Investigations

Indoor cricket was good; it was his dad's work team, and for this weekend they were a player short. Chris hadn't played it very often, and he was reminded that it was quite a bit different to proper cricket. Indoor cricket is quick and dirty, in contrast to the technique and patience his coach had been working on with him for a couple of months. It was nice to spend some time with his dad though. They partnered each other, and other than Chris running into his dad once they did...

Australian StoryChapter 21 Not to be taken for granted

Friday 1-June 2007 Hassan was a lot better by Friday. Not well enough to go to school, but well enough for Shahia to go back at school, with a huge smile on her face, and well enough for them all to come to Chris's place like usual, though Chris's mum went around and picked him up to meet the rest of them after school. They were all nicely settled when Lisa arrived with her mum in tow. Since Chris hadn't told her why he had asked her to pop over, she was astounded when both Chris and...

Australian StoryChapter 39 Awesome

Thursday 11-Oct 2007 They arrived a little early at Joe's coffee shop. The first thing Chris did was pick up the paper. The headline was real simple: "AWESOME". Splashed across the front page was huge photo of Lisa with Andrew beside her. She was directing something with her arm, her expression focused and happy. In the background there were students sitting on the road studying. And she did look awesome. Beside the picture, in big obvious text, was the email that they'd drafted last...

Building a Community

[This is what a teacher of mine would call a lesson story. Not a sex story, a cheating wife story, BDSM or anything like it. I found out six years after my previous wife cheated. When I found out I also found out that there were at least a dozen ‘friends’ of mine who had known all along. They weren’t family or in community with me. They aren’t with me at all, now.] * ‘I think of all of you as my family. I look at each of you and my heart fills with hope and prayers for your best good.’ The...

The Community Part 1

“So, honey,” Cheryl smiled at me uncertainly. “What do you think?” There was a loaded question. Cheryl and I had been married for the last 5 years. We were neither of us virgins when we met. I had been working in an electronics store doing board-level repair, and she was working down the street as a secretary in a furniture business. We met at the coffee cart on the street on the way to work. We had started simply by meeting at the cart, and chatting as we were waiting for our coffees. She...

Moving to a Retirement Community

Chapter 5 I stood there in the open doorway with my mouth wide open, unable to say a word. "Well don't just stand there," Ed told me, as he entered the house and went over to where Gene was sitting on the sofa. "You're wasting a perfectly good opportunity here," he grabbed Gene's cock and started pumping it up and down, drawing a few beads of precum as a result. He plucked the first one with his finger and licked it up. "Tastes good to me," he said. "You sure you won't be joining us?" After...

His mom was glad that her husband was dead so he could not to see how his son dressed. Once they accepted his long hair at school and what he wore at home things became a little boring. Having mom return from work to find Paul on the couch doing his toe nails was how it was like as long as Paul...

The Community Part 2

Authors note. First, I would like to thank all those who left feedback about the first and to be honest what was going to be the only, part of this tale. There were lots of people who said that there was no retribution for Jeremy and the others in the close, and many said that the MC waited far too long to pull the trigger and that the police should have been involved after the drugging etc. I will say this. In my mind, the MC’s prime and indeed only consideration was extracting himself and...

CommunityChapter 49

(Author's note: And now for something completely different! When I first started writing this stuff, I read a story, Runaway, here on SOL. I loved the story. The author and I have emailed back and forth a bit over the years and he and I talked about interweaving the characters of Runaway with my girls in Community. Here it is. Be advised that Duncs is British, so you get a bit of different slang and a different tone, and he insisted on using the wrong spellings, like 'colour' and...

Community Three SigmaChapter 29

Beck’s turn: My mother is coming to Alabama. Oh, it’s happened before, but this time it’s even more special. My daughter is twelve, almost thirteen, and we are overdue for the bat mitzvah. For you who might not know, for a Jewish girl, twelve is the year of her entry into womanhood. Yes, this has been the year, physically, too, for our Rachel. She got her period a few months before, something that I find rather like a validation of the concept. The whole thing boils down to a night at the...

Australian StoryChapter 25 A hollow feeling

Friday 13-Jul 2007 Chris leaned back on his horse, looking back down the trail to check on Shahia. She smiled up at him and leaned forward on the horse, spurring it to a canter so she could catch up to Chris. "There, see." Chris gestured in front of them, and Shahia saw what he meant. "Oh, Chris, that's amazing." They had just reached the highest point of his uncle's farm. From here, you could look out east, tracing the contours of the land as it gradually fell towards the coast,...

Moving to a Retirement Community

Chapter 12 Later the next day, after the three of us had all showered and the Lister's had left, I stood at the kitchen sink getting some water when I heard a knock on the front door. There stood Gene and the administrator of the Community, Winston Jefferson. I'd met Winston briefly the day I'd moved in, but hadn't really had a chance to chat with him. "I hope you don't mind us stopping by, Mike," Gene said. "But we were just down the street and Winston said he'd like to get to know you a...

My Gated Community

MY GATED COMMUNNITY Sleazy Blonde, 2021 I was enjoying a leisurely Saturday afternoon reading a mystery novel in our living room when the doorbell rang. We hadn't been expecting anyone. I took a quick look around the room; everything seemed neat, tidy, and put away. I saw my three-hour hourglass was nearing its end. I sighed and put my novel down. I welcomed Kim, Lisa, and Mary into our home. They were wonderful neighbors whom we had grown to know in the three months since we had...

The fact she even had to go through this little charade agitated the young red head beyond words. There was no way in hell Sharon was still asleep, Margo was pounding loud enough to wake a corpse.

Terri’s turn: I’m telling this. It’s noon on a hot July Saturday and I’m standing in front of a roomful of people looking at me. I’ve done the ‘roomful of people looking at me’ thing many times. I guess the first couple of times I was nervous, but now I’ve done it in front of Google’s R&D and Raytheon’s R&D and a team from DoD. None of those was as impactful on my young life as this. I’m wearing a simple-lined linen dress, one that’s been worn by wives before me – Kimberly, Kara,...

Interracial

The Community Pool

I really hated the community pool in our housing development. Well, not actually the pool itself, but the fact that the place seemed to always be overrun with screaming kids and surly teenagers. I really wanted to be able to swim laps and get some sun while reading (and quaffing the occasional adult beverage); but found these tasks to be hard to accomplish due to the aforesaid. I was seriously thinking about giving up my pool membership, when a petition made its way to my door. Apparently, a...

Keith Spencer looked up at the clock on the wall and sighed. The crew-cut eighteen-year-old couldn't believe that only thirty minutes had passed of the eight hours he was required to put in at the Roosevelt Park Tri-County Help Center. For perhaps the hundredth time this month alone, he asked himself how he had gotten into this fix. A few years back, the local school board had passed a requirement that every student have a hundred hours of community service in order to graduate. While it did...

CommunityEpilogue

Comes a time when a story needs to be halted. I, as a hack writer, have enjoyed the three stories, Cindy, Nikki, and Christina, that led to the formation of the group that became our Community. During the course of the story, we dragged in the characters from Melodic Redemption. Now I'm pulling in Kimberly 2.0. This isn't the end of the community. This is just the end of the first part of Community. Trust me, the story will go on as Community Too. Look for it. And remember Community.

Community Three SigmaChapter 9

Still Tara’s turn: I have a lot to worry about, these days. However, no more “pitiful me” anymore. A little red-headed fireball grabbed me by both ears, shook some sense into me, and introduced me to “Never-never-land” (not the Michael Jackson version, thankyouverymuch.) In this case, it’s the 3Sigma “Community”, where all the girls are geniuses, they all fly airplanes, have their own airfield, all that. And we’ve been arranging my move here, and my return to an Auburn education. A...

Maddie's Turn: I'm in COLLEGE! Yes, little Maddie Reynolds is in college. And I'm YOUNG for it. I'm two years ahead. It's because of the hurricane, you know. The hurricane hit last year and the storm surge pushed a wave through our high school and forced us to go to school at the nearest high school that was undamaged. Now you have to understand that I live in one of the least populous parishes (that's counties in the other forty-nine states) in Louisiana, so we're not talking about...

Community FourEverChapter 5

Dana’s turn: I’ve been through a lot of changes since I turned fourteen almost two years ago. Living with Mom. Mom incarcerated. Living with Gramma – a huge step up in Dana’s quality of life. Connecting with Ed. Even more huge. Meeting the Community. Marrying Ed. Moving us to Alabama. All that’s good. Really good. I’m loving the environment. Ed’s loving it, too, and Gramma’s married and she’s teaching her last, greatest class. None of her students here has an IQ that isn’t measured high on...

Nanny’s house was a small, two bedrooms, wooden framed one near a cotton mill. She and my great-grandfather had worked at the mill. Back in those days, the companies felt it was best to have workers that lived near the mills. They built what was called mill villages, dozens and hundreds of basic houses near their plants. Then they sold them to the workers, taking mortgage payments out of their paycheck each week. The South is dotted with the remnants of these kinder, gentler days. By the time...

Another good thing coming out of the night was Mike met a guy who talked to him about a new drug being used to increase height. Frank was his name and he said he used to be 5'6" and now was 6 feet tall and all this in his 40's. He had a very attractive wife that worked with Krista and she was wearing very tall heels as she stood next Frank. She was 5'6" she said as she looked up a couple of inches to Frank. ...

A young man becomes a sex slave to a whole community

It was in the late 70’s and I was visiting my cousin in the south during spring break. The worst of the segregation issues were over but there was still tension in that area. I had longish hair and was very buff as a member of my schools swim team, but was out of action due to an injury. In those days it was common for swimmers to shave all their body hair to reduce drag in the water. I was even shaved in my pubic region after an event by two team mates who ended up with me giving oral...

Community Property

Hi folks, another week, another tale of love gone wrong. I'm still shocked that I got away with naming the hero of last week's story Daniel Boone and no one caught it. As A warning I have to tell you that this one includes some violence. But in the end it's only a story. Only imaginary people were injured during the story and even they got back up and went home after it ended. So for those of you who don't like to see things like that, this one probably won't be your cup of tea.For the...

Cindy's Turn: Nuts! I think it's just nuts! The word is one I picked up from my husband. He uses it because he doesn't use a lot of other, coarser, words. There are others: 'chaotic' comes to mind. 'Barely expected' works too. It's like this: Nikki and I both ended up sitting in Doctor Wilkins' office – that's 'Bren' – of the math department. "Ram's vacationing back in India, or he'd be here too," Bren told us. "He's in on this. So's Doctor Patel. Big part of it is her...

Dan Granger's turn: It's great when you've been on the road for a couple of days and you make that final turn back home, knowing that you've got a nice clean place to stay and you've got somebody waiting there who loves you and is waiting for your return. Jason and I had been in North Georgia. That's the southern state of Georgia in the USA, not the one in Europe that birthed Stalin, in case you're wondering. The little regional electrical cooperative is in the process of upgrading...

Community Three SigmaChapter 23

Derek’s turn: Tara says I shouldn’t be so obvious. She’s talking about Rachel. The first time I saw Rachel Weismann, I recognized Hermione Granger in the first Harry Potter movie, same face, same crazy hair. But Rachel’s eyes are blue and her hair is more brownish. In the movie, Hermione’s is more red. Kind of like Mizz Tina’s. “You’re too young to be in love,” Tara said. We’d been living back in Auburn for a month when that conversation happened. “I am a little younger than Cindy was...

Homeowners Association A Big Deal at Sunny Manor BDSMThe Community Center Tour

Eddie escorted us around the inside of the Community Center first. There were technically three restaurants attached to the main building. The first was called DeSade’s pantry. It was a simple walk-up service counter that sold ready-made meals, groceries, and the like. The only difference was a few women were shopping in the nude, and the cashier was bottomless. Simon asked how do the women pay for the items in the shop if they are naked. “The women bend over and spread their butt cheeks...

Australian Girl Tiara Pounded On The Konark Beach By A Vagabond Rider

It has been sometime since I last got laid. I am a vagabond content writer on the move once again since past 6 months now. Traveling the coastal region of Eastern India I have met few ecstatic nymphs as well well as few shy honey-pots who needed a little caress before they were to be deflowered. Here is a story of one such incident when I was in the city of Sun-Temple, Konark, Orissa, India. I rode down to Puri and checked into a hotel beside the sea. The place was good indeed with a lot of...

Australian Beach Sex

Finally the weather is warming up here and it is time for Kip to spend some more time on the beach in his speedo. So yesterday Kip and I got stuck into some work early, then packed up the car with the usual beach stuff, beer, towels, sunscreen ... but we also packed other stuff like condoms and lube. Before we left I got onto Grindr and updated our profile saying that we’d be at Birdie Beach, from the carpark walk south a couple of kms and we’d be there. If I was on my own I probably wouldn’t...

Australian StoryChapter 6 Discovery

Saturday 31-Mar 2007 On Saturday night, Chris sat down and looked at the notes that he'd made the night before, the list of things he knew about Shahia. It was painfully short. - Shahia's family used to have lots of money, now they don't have enough He was pretty sure that he was right about that. She used to go to St Joseph's. He had nosed around on the net and found that it cost about $15,000 a year to go there. It didn't matter how you looked at it; that was a lot of money. But...

Australian StoryChapter 8 The Mission

Sunday 15-Apr 2007 It was his mother's idea. He should have known better; he knew how tricksy she was. All he had to do was think back to his New Year's resolution ... yet he couldn't really regret that. Anyhow, she'd come up with the idea in the car on the way back from his Uncle's farm where they'd been staying over Easter, and Chris had been too worn down from seven hard days working on the farm to even think of resisting. All he'd said was that it sounded like a good idea, and it...

Australian StoryChapter 10 Detention

Saturday 21-April 2007 At the end of a long day, Chris collapsed into his bed groaning. He'd got up at six a.m. on a Saturday to do his parent stuff early, so he could go to play soccer with his mates, a Saturday morning practice for the trials. They'd practised twice during the week, but he'd only been able to make one of them, and then only by getting up early and going to bed late. What a relief! The parent thing was over. He had no idea how Shahia did it. He couldn't imagine looking...

Australian StoryChapter 11 A True Friend

Thursday 26-Apr 2007 As Chris walked towards Shahia, he thought about what he should say, and how she might respond. In his plan, he needed to be smooth and confident, and finish with impeccable timing. Now was the time. He had one chance up front to say enough that she'd know he was well-informed, and also to show her that she didn't need to be afraid. As for how she might respond, he figured there were three possibilities. She might explode, rip into him. If she did, well, he'd wear...

Australian StoryChapter 12 Defence

Thursday 26-Apr 2007 After school, Chris had a second round of trials for the First Eleven soccer team. With everything else that was going on, he'd almost forgotten, but David reminded him, since they both looked like they had a real chance of getting into the team. As he made his way to the trial, he was suddenly confronted by a rather aggressive looking Lisa. She poked her finger into his chest, and pushed him back. "What are you thinking, going after Shahia like that?" Chris looked...

Australian StoryChapter 13 The Promise

Friday 4-May 2007 Chris was relieved when the weather was better on Friday. Not great, but probably good enough that they could go swimming; he'd had his heart set on that after what Shahia had said. Chris and Shahia had agreed that he'd walk with Shahia to pick up her family, and then they'd all walk to Chris's home. He was ready with his bag packed before the siren went, and then he was up and out the door like a rocket, following Shahia. She power walked down the drive, and then as...

Australian StoryChapter 14 Blown Away

Thursday May-10 2007 Thursday started with a surprise snap test in maths. Chris had faced the test with dread; maths tests were his worst fear. But the real surprise about this test was that he actually knew how to solve the problems, knew that he wasn't just guessing. It came from taking notes for Shahia on the Monday. The first subject he'd had to do this for was maths, and he'd bent all his energies on getting a good set of notes for her; her words ringing in his head: 'if I stop...

Australian StoryChapter 15 Holding back the darkness

Wednesday 16-May 2007 Chris glanced behind him to check on Shahia. She was standing right behind him, her eyes wide open in fear. There were few kids close around them, and he could see more coming, drawn to a fight like moths to a light. He turned back to Jerry. "You leave her alone. What a coward, picking on a girl." "So what are you going to do about it?" Jerry growled back at him. Chris swallowed. Jerry was a lot bigger than him, and he'd heard about Jerry's fighting ability —...

Australian StoryChapter 16 The Only One

Thursday 17-May 2007 Knock knock. Chris looked up towards the door. Who would be visiting at this time of the morning? His mum hopped up and hurried to the door. "Good Morning, Eric." He heard from the entrance. Eric? Chris was still trying to figure out who that was when his mum led Mr Cartwright into the room. Mr Cartwright was carrying his bag that contained most of his books and his phone. "Ahh, Chris. Good morning. How are you?" "I'm okay, thank you sir. Actually it looks...

Australian StoryChapter 20 Chocolate in the night

Tuesday 29-May 2007 Chris hadn't been working on his homework for very long when his mind once again turned to Shahia — how was she doing? He pulled out his phone and sent her an SMS message: A & m in bed asleep. All ok. Hope h is all right Hopefully that would reduce her worries. A few minutes later, his phone rang. "Hi." "Yeah, it's me. Thanks for the message." "How's it going there?" "Yeah, okay." He could hear her weariness. "It looks like he's going to be all...

Australian StoryChapter 22 Dancing and Spinning

Friday 15-June 2007 Tonight was the big night, the Year-Eleven dance. It was hardly worth trying to do any schoolwork; it seemed that no one could focus. It kind of struck Chris as funny; somehow he seemed to be a little out of touch with all the excitement. Yes, he was looking forward to it, but no, it wasn't the end of the world. He listened to them all talking about it: the boys discussing who might get laid or who might take booze or drugs along, the girls talking about who was going to...

Australian StoryChapter 24 The campfire

Saturday 7-Jul 2007 Chris watched the embers of the old log burning in the fire. It was just his parents and him left; everyone else had gone to bed. Shahia had gone early, both because she was exhausted from getting everyone ready to drive up to the farm with his Dad that morning, and because Maria wasn't settling too well. Bec and Alyssa had been sent to bed over their loud protests when it got too late, and Jay and Hassan had sat out by the fire playing their guitars and entertaining...

Australian StoryChapter 26 Show of Strength

Saturday 18-Aug 2007 Chris woke early in the morning; he had no time for sleeping in on this day: it was entirely focused on his mum's birthday ‑ he didn't even have soccer until the next day. He jumped out of bed, eager to confront the day. Jay was already up, and the two of them listened to the radio as they started moving the furniture around in the lounge and dining area. Midway through the process, Chris suddenly stopped, listening the news. It was a news item about a couple who'd...

Australian StoryChapter 28 The girl who came out of the shadows

Wednesday 12-Sept 2007 They came to the school gate just a little before lunch. Chris was surprised to see a bunch of year-seven students hanging around the gate, even though it was still in period. He shrugged, and they passed through the gate. Chris took a deep breath. The first battle was about to commence. Lisa had arrived within minutes, out of breath. He'd shown her the letter, and she'd gone berserk. Once she'd settled, he'd explained his plan, and she'd signed on immediately....

Australian StoryChapter 29 Busy Bees

Tuesday 18-Sept 2007 Chris was blown away by the response to his working bee proposal. In fact, on the Saturday that had just gone by, there'd been an impromptu working bee. His family, Lisa and Janine, Joe and a couple of others had popped by to look over the work that was required, and they'd ended up spending a couple of hours cleaning and investigating. Without question, the biggest problem was the floor in the bathroom. At least the shower base was leaking, if not the taps as well,...
