Runaway Groom Chapter 4

The next morning, Jierra decided that there was something she needed to ask John.
So she put on a shirt and a pair of overalls and since she was eager to ask her question she accidentally grabbed a banana peel instead of a banana. Then with the banana peel she raced to her car and drove to
John's house. She ran up the front steps and gave the door a beating. John opened the door almost immediately. Then since she was so nervous, Jierra exclaimed, "I want a chicken!" "Baked or live?" asked John as if it were a normal question. "Whichever," replied Jierra. So John got in his car to go to McRally's chicken farm.

Runaway Groom Chapter 3

 

         So the next evening John knocked on Jierra's door. She immediately opened the door.  Her eyes were half closed and her long brown hair was piled on top of her head in butter-yellow curlers. She had on a white bathrobe and some plain fluffy white slippers. John felt unsure about asking his question, so he answered the first thing that popped into his mind. "I want a beer!"

Jierra walked down the hall and turned. She was now out of John's sight. A few minutes later she came back  with a beer. She handed him a beer. "If you care to know, I love you, John," said Jierra. John put the beer on a table by the door.  He stepped out onto the porch and closed the door. He walked down the steps and along the sidewalk until he came to his car. He got in and drove away.

Runaway Groom Chapter 2

 
   
              "Would you like to come to my house?" asked John. Jierra squinted at him. "It is your decision, ma'am. You do not have to if you do not want to," said John. "Oh no, I'd be delighted. I just got a bit suspicious because I was not sure why a man would ask me over when we just met on the street and have not had that large of a conversation yet. But I accept your invitation," said Jierra. So they walked to John's house. There was not much in the little cottage. A couch, a table, a chair, a glass cabinet with a china teapot, cup, and saucer, a bed with pillows and a quilt, and a fridge. Jierra had a plastic cup of coffee and her pocketbook in her hands, and because she had the coffee, John did not offer her anything to drink.



   A year later, John and Jierra had been dating for a long time. John was ready to get rich. He decided that the next day he would ask Jierra the question he needed to ask her.

Runaway Groom

 There once was a man named John. He wanted to get married.  He only wanted to for money. He did not care how kind his wife was.   So he went out on the street to look for rich women. Then he saw a woman. She had long brown hair and light, twinkling blue eyes. She had an indifferent expression. She looked like the kind of person to smile sometimes. But people look weird just going around with a cheesy smile on their face all the time. She looked like no lady. Just a normal woman. She did not look rich. But it was worth a try. So when she walked over to the coffee shop across the street, John followed her. She took some dollar bills from her pocketbook and set it on an outdoor table and walked in the coffee shop. John grabbed the pocket book and looked inside.  He saw a chunk of glittery stuff. He quickly put the pocketbook down just as the young woman walked out again. "Hello," he said. "I'm John Perenski." "Hello" the woman repeated. "I'm Jierra Flourence Meetloaf."
