CHAPTER ONE

By C.V.

Gilles Howard, age 32 came from a comfortably well off

Jdoctor's family. His 3 older sisters always lived in complete

harmony with him and his parents. Everyone was always friendly and courteous, considerate of one another and never was there a test of wills or need for strong determination.

Reasonably intelligent, he was slightly above average in school and made friends easily because of his friendly and compromising character. He was never much addicted to sports although he enjoyed watching very much. Because of this he never developed a strong physique and had rather narrow shoulders for a man and for some reason an even slimmer waist. On John's 13th birthday, his father became seriously ill. John's father was known for his kindness, not charging poorer patients, and when his father died the family was faced with many bills and little money to pay for them. His mother was deeply depressed, having lost her beloved husband, and became almost indolent, leaving the running of the household completely to the children. John chipped in with his sisters in his usual spirit of helpfulness in doing all kinds of household tasks. It didn't take long for him to become quite adept in these feminine chores, especially after the girls left, one after another, to get married or get a job to help with the finances.

As a matter of fact, during his last high-school years he almost ran the house single handedly and did a good job too, cleaning and cooking for himself and his mother. Come to think about it, he was wearing an apron when he first met his future wife Mary. She had come to the house to ask his help in running for president of the school student association. This position had always been held by a boy and she was determined that a girl should have the chance. Mary was a very attractive young lady, coming from a very simple working family but determined to better herself. She was tall for her age and strong willed. She always seemed to get what she wanted without gloating about it. Mary always knew what she wanted. When the bell rang John went to open the door never giving a thought to his appearance. When he opened the door and saw Mary standing there, he wished he could become invisible instantly. He blushed with embarrassment and quickly tried to take off his garment of shame.

He was doing the ironing and was wearing a white pinafore type
