The Dusty Bookshelf

Prologue

It was a warm summer day.  The sun shined bright, the flowers looked beautiful, children were having a wonderful time. What more could Claire want? She was a very beautiful woman, she was tall, her teeth perfectly strait and perfectly white, she had the silkiest golden hair. So golden, you would think she stole the sun. But what Claire was really known for, was her eyes. Since she was a baby she had the biggest brown eyes in Texas! Her eyes fit perfectly in her face which made her absolutely stunning.

Claire was 22 and had a wonderful family. She had an amazing husband and two beautiful twin girls. Her husband was 6 feet and 3 inches, with dark brown hair neatly tied up behind his hat. Her childrens names were, Margret and, Elois. Margret looked just like her mother. She had the same silky hair and of course her big brown eyes. Elois was more like her father, dark brown hair, and was pretty tall for a 12 year old girl 

Claire and her husband, Ben, sat in the rocking chairs on their front porch with the wind blowing causing Claire's golden hair to be flug about.

"You know I love you, don't you?" said Ben.

"Why yes dear! And I love you just the same." said Claire, not knowing what was going on.

"And, you know I love those children, don't you?" asked Ben shyly

"Why yes dear!! We have loved them since the day they came into our lives. " said Claire strongly

"You know I would never do anything to hurt you, or the children don't you?" asked Ben, still rather shy.

"Of course! I would never hurt you and I know the children wouldn't." Claire said in defense

"Just remember that..." said Ben. For the next day, he was gone. All that was left of him was a note, saying

"Don't forget"
