This is another excellent chapter. It feels like your own Rumplestiltskin story that you have created for Slim. I do not see any room for improvement. Have a blessed day.

Well, now, if Mary believes Slim, she might be able to help him. And then again, Slim might be the one to help her of the mysterious abuser in her life. I like how you show the passage of time that Slim experienced as he notices the changes in the present time.

    Thank you. I hoped this plotline would work as we get to Ben Paul.

I like that you dug into the reality of the situation a little better in this chapter.

I will have to learn to put my hair in a ponytail while cleaning my toilets:-)

"120" at the beginning of the paragraph near the end of the story should be written out.

Although we can surmise that Mary is related to LouAnne in some fashion, I don't think it should be in your author's notes until it's spelled out in the story. Gives it away.

Slim is clearly smitten, and Mary will believe him. That fat lip though - I think the "giver" of that is going to complicate things for poor Slim.

Good chapter, Wayne. Happy Easter:-)

Poor Slim, it would be so hard to start again, and try to relate to people but know they would have no understanding of his situation. Suzanne is at least a very caring person, and is looking after him well. It will be interesting to watch him finding his way to real peace ....

    Thank you.
    Suzanne helped him leave Denver. Mary owns the motel and has taken an interest in him in Cerrillos.
    Thank you for accepting this story line. Change is coming. We still have to find Ben Paul.

It's always fun when you start filling in the pieces of your characters, chunk by chunk. I guess I could call it the meat of the matter. LOL. Thanks for sharing.

Slim is such an interesting character with a real dilemma--how to have people take you seriously when you are 120 years old and don't look your age. I love stories like this. It's reminiscent of a couple of movies I've seen like The Age of Adeline and The Man From Earth. What a fascinating story so far.

This was both timely and untimely. The latter because tomorrow is the day I get to spend six strs. Timely because Saturday is "Cowboy Day" and I always watch B and/or A westerns with my Cowboy hat on, of course. I'm getting addicted to Slim's story and hope you'll be camping out there for a long while.

    Thank you for getting me in the western mood. I watched four back-to-back oldies from the forties.

    Uh... thanks?
    I double-checked and still failed to see that I wrote a poem.
    But thanks, anyway.

You have penned some sparkling dialogue for this tale, Wayne. A pleasure to read. I was smitten by some of your imagery, Her voice was pleasant, not like Suzanne's whose voice could freeze hot coffee. being a good example. A great chapter.
