In fact he believes she only is mean towards others in order to make sure no one tries to pull a fast on her on her family. Yet she does a good job hiding her feeling toward others including member of her own family.

Authors Notes

One story a woman had fell into a water falcon because she texting while walking and did not see what was in fort of her.

   This was the starting point into making a story that was more tongue and cheek and not dark in humor. And even throw it did had a serious supject matter, Edwin had written the story in a way that was over the top and in good fun.
