In their very young teenage years (the story doesn't really say how
young), Cal and Kathy spent many an enjoyable day innocently and
pleasantly discovering each other's bodies. Then Kathy's parents moved
away; and the friends were separated until they happened to meet during
their college days. That day they make it as far as Kathy's Toyota
before falling into a passionate embrace. Then they meet again many
years later, when they are both married and committed to their families.
Finally, they meet once again in the winter of their lives.

"Like two ships that pass in the night, or two thieves stealing time and
pleasure where they can find it. So are the Days of Our Lives." Or
something like that.

This story is long on sentiment. But it moistened my pussy as well as
my eyes. In short, this is an excellent story that blends sex and
emotions into a genuinely erotic story.

This story also contains the accidental quote of the year: "There was
something fascinating about what he was seeing that he couldn't quite
put his finger on."
