*This is a story that blends narrative and actual events. Names and details have been changed to protect identities of the people involved. This took place somewhere near my twenty-second year of life with a middle-aged woman. This is the first part in a series of works.*
My name is Allen. I grew up in a small rural town in a moderately sized state with a bit of everything to offer. My state has state parks, campgrounds, beaches, and many metropolitan areas of varying sizes. However, I was brought up in a rural community. I am originally from New York City, but my family decided to relocate when I was around ten to a locale where they were not absolutely destroyed by state and municipal taxes. Additionally, the cost of living was cheaper, jobs in their fields were better paying, and retirement was just around the corner.
