So yes, I will answer them. ***Why*** This one Sherry is partly out of circumstance. By complete chance I happened upon your phone, and it was unlocked.

Others have stepped over me, and that is fine, but I have worked too hard to allow myself to be crushed, and we both know, Sherry, that soon enough, your sights would be on me.”

“Now do not be dismayed, little one.” Jono continued, “ I do not blame you a bit. In fact, I find it on some level flattering. But realizing this had got me thinking about possible options. No shock you are very attractive, so when I found the phone, well, it reminded me again that luck is when preparation and opportunity meet….and they did.”
