Diabolical Dealing
Charlene Lind found herself at the home of her therapist, Dr. Alexandra Vech, who she had been seeing for a week. What was supposed to be a session ended up becoming a desperate plea of help from Charlene as she was suddenly losing consciousness. She was cognizant enough to know that she had only a minute left until she would be out like a light.

Magnificient!!!
Paul, this made me laugh so much. I know the monkey is sad but the way you wrote this is sooooo funnyyyyyy!
aww. Poor little monkey. Well done.
This has an adult "Dick and Jane" book vibe and cadence to it. "M" seems to be a popular letter. Now I must decide...should I go ahead with my M-Tautogram? Hmmmm
I’m a monkey’s uncle, lol, 😂 good job buddy 😀
Heck, I'd be moping, too! 🤣 Well done, Paul!
Awww, I'm sad the monkey is mopey but what a wonderful job using all of those words in such a unique way!!! And I loved the line that "monkey means monkey" that repeated throughout. Lovely :)
