  • ...and my dad, he never showed me that he loved me." Ted weeped a little. Dabbed his moist eyes with tissue. The therapists chair swiveled-Genghis Khan sat there. His piercing eyes
  • had grown weary of seeing wussies. Retirement wasn't going well for Genghis. He'd thought that providing therapy to his conquerees would be a fun hobby, but he still longed for
  • the days when he would happily gallop over the steppes of Mongolia, slashing his sword and slaying anyone who opposed him. Now being a therapist, he was forced to listen to their

    Sometimes the best endings just happen, you don't have to explain anything. :P

    Crunchy exterior, chewy insides. A rich nougat of exciting literary flavor.
