“I have seen what a laugh can do,” the late Bob Hope famously remarked.
It has the power to turn nearly intolerable tears into something tolerable, even hopeful.
In the hopes that you can find some hope despite whatever intolerable situation you are going through, we are presenting a humorous story about a gritty young man today.
If you want to chuckle, keep reading!
Imagine this: At a restaurant, two adolescents spend hours flirting with each other across the table. When the date is over, the young man drops her off at her family’s house, but he wants to get a little action before he leaves.
He offers her a mischievous look and says, “Baby, how about we, you know…? as she pulls away from him after they exchange a long, tender goodnight kiss in the hallway near the front door.proceed a bit farther?”
He leans on the wall next to her, seeking to win her heart with his looks, driven by hormones and self-assurance. Unimpressed, she snarls softly, “Are you crazy? Inside, my parents are sleeping!”
He points up the stairs toward the dim corridor and responds, “Oh, come on.” “Everyone is asleep. At this hour, who will listen to us? Pulling her hands into his,” he continues.
“Can you imagine if we got caught?” she asks, stepping away from her partner, who is still leaning against the wall by the entrance.
Instead of maintaining the cool-guy persona, the 19-year-old chooses to beg instead.
He begs, “Please, I really do love you!”
“No, no, and no,” she replies, continuing to deny him. I can’t, even though I love you too! It’s far too dangerous!
“Yes, you can,” he adds.
He begs and she refuses, as they move back and forth until the hallway light abruptly turns on.
At the top of the steps, her younger sister can be seen rubbing her drowsy eyes and yawning.
“Mom can do it, or you should do it yourself,” Dad says. Dad also said he can come down himself and do it if necessary.
Keep your guy from leaning against the intercom, though!
