"Dont eat that sticky crap Ester".Fran said as she walked Ester down main street,heading home.Later down the road Fran open's a door."Let's go in here girl and find you a new dress or maybe i'll splurg and by you 3 dresses ".Fran said entering a small Dog Pamper Shop."Hello what can I help you to ladie's with today?" A lady in a blue long dress said petting Ester's fluffy fur."Well yes umm do you have some new dress up wear for my Ester here?" The lady stared at Ester one more time and headed toward the middle part of the store, "yes here you'll find fancy and dress up wear for your pooch here." The lady grinned and walked back to a gentelman who was looking curious about a pair of black doggie jeans.Fran paused to look at the man,as if she almost new him she shook her head and looked down at an old Pharoh Hound dog that was running toward her.

"Well hello there sweetie." The dog barked twirled and jumped up twice.Fran was just about to leave when the man that was looking at the jeans walked up and said "Oh come on Chessie leave this good citizen be". Chessie? Fran turned a around with a puzzled look on her face."as if I remember a skinny dog named Chessie from the past." Fran whispered under her breath stepping forward Ester by her side. When the man lifted his head he gasped, wich made Fran jump back."Fran!" The man said tears in his eyes."Wha? How do you know my name?" Well Fran I've called you 73 times since 1983."Well honey I was..Fran why you never called?"Then Chessie jumped on Fran and sent her falling to the ground.Ester barked and stood back."Chessie you damn dog"."No no it's ok Sir". Fran got up patted the dog's silky body and walked off panicy.Then Fran arived back in her place to see about Ester's wardrobe.Shaking dress's in front of Ester, finally she barked and panted happily when Fran shook a red doggie dress with lace cut out's on the end."Ok this is the first dress two more to go!" Ester pranced happily beside Fran when she put the dress in her cart."C'mon you Ester" Fran said walking to another dress rack.Shaking dress's and trying them on Ester's slim body, she finally chose a gray regular day sundress.Then after a long 15 minutes Ester chose a blue sundress wich brought her Brown fur stand out.

Fran walked out with one small bag and a short smile on her face. The man that cornerd her in the store was eating a sub sandwich in his car at the Pamper shop.Fran starred at him glazzed with hope in her eyes covered by fright.Ester sat in the front seat, when Fran pulled out the drive the man drove out too heading her way."Who are you, I feel I know you" Fran said aloud.Starring at the handsome man a last time Fran set her mind on feeding the kids at home,going to bed early to make love, spending time with Gena and Gracie and walking Ester some more in the dusk hours.The red car the man was driving pulled along side Fran's as she stopped at a stop sign.He waved once and sped forward, Fran was curious and followed him.Ester looked at the faint shadow of Chessie in the back seat."Chessie, Chester"?Ester?" Fran said weridly. "But Chessie aint related to Chester nore is Chester my dog. But then it stunned Fran when Chester reacted so knowing to Fran.Was something going on or was this just a nice man who had dated her back in the busy 80's that had a dog's name that begin with a Ches?

After getting bored with following the man she was ready to turn the car and go home,but then the man's car stopped in front of a big light blue home.When the man got out he quickly let Chessie out wich followed the man who walked up to Fran's car.Fran gripped her chair as she turned off the gas and got out."So Fran remember are manchion?" Fran starred at the man sadly."Are?" The man looked puzzled."Fran oh no, dont tell me you got knocked out and forgot!" "Knocked the hell out! I dont even know you.What is your problem?" Fran said slamming her purse on her black car. Three neighbor's that were outdoor's looked at them frowning.Ester growled at Chessie and paced the ground."Fran if you'll come into my home i'll be happy to tell you." The man said tapping his chest."What the hec? Why go into your home,you could rape me or kill me ghezz".The man ran to his car and walked back with 2 photo's in his hands."Huh?" Give me those Fran said stunned, one picture showed Fran flashing a danty ring on her wedding finger and she had her hand around this man and was wearing a bright grin and a tube top with a shorter skirt than she'd ever wore.She looked very drunk and tipsy.Fran held her grip and tears back. The second photo had Fran laying on top of this man, he was grinning, she had a sly smart look on her face. He was wearing a tank top and short pants. Fran was wearing a short black see threw at the bottom dress, still she looked very tipsy,and that ring was wrapped around her finger.Fran almost fell over or threw up. "What..."Then everything went black to Fran.The man drew her inside his house.

Fran opened her eyes 44 minutes later."Harc" The man said grinning."My names Harc".Fran smiled not knowing why but smiled. Ester was sleeping by Chessie by the front door, Fran was laying on a red silky couch."Tell me all I have to know." Fran said getting ready for a rollercoster ride.

Harc began with a frown"Well we had became boyfriend galfriend in 1977.You were in love with both me and Danny.You had no clue who to marry.So I got back and on june 1st 1979 I proposed to you, we were at a bar in New York.You were happy, then you demanded your first drink wich made you so tipsy I got worried bout you. Then everynight we made love and you stayed at my house after fighting with your folks, then 3 days before our wedding we both were calm and not tipsy.We were driving back to your folks'es to give them a wedding notice, well 3 miles south of your folks'es house we crashed into a larger truck than our own.Our car did 2 turn over's and I had a critical cut along my forehead,they never told me what happened to you but your father stopped in before they were taking you home and said slyly "Fran had a brain concusion, she'll be fine now we asked her questions and she answered wrongly". Then I never saw you.Fran held her breath and let tears fall from her cheek to her hands.Harc cradeled her.

"What about the name weirdness and Chessie knowing me so well?"Harc sighed and scrathed his head "Well I had gotten 2 puppies 4 weeks before are marrige Chester and this old Chessie here were just new borns. You named Chester,I named Chessie.Chessie and Chester loved you so.Then after you leaving and all I was stuck with them, the pup's were heartbroken for years.Then one day I was fed up with Chester whining bout you when Chessie was over it.I mean even in 1990 Chester sat by the door crying,waiting for you to come home.So one day I got a call from a Maxwell Shefield wanting Chester,I asked him simple question's then abruptly your name came up.When I hung up the phone I knew Chester would be happier being closer to you, so it all fit I geuss." Harc paused and hugged Fran.

(the song "Stole" begins)Fran slipped her hand into Harc's shirt not thinking he jumped on her.Fran was in shock no clue and was dramatized.Harc ripped shirt off and began kissing Fran's forhead,Fran kissed back.Harc unbuckeled his pants and threw them.Fran still had all her clothing on.Harc slipped his hand across Fran's chest.Fran and Harc's kiss were similar, great suckson and passion.This love was better than Max's Fran thought then Fran's eyes shoot big as Harc licked her stomach and unbuttonining her skirt."Stop" She screamed. Fran hopped up quickly zipping her shirt up and pulling her skirt on."I'm married with kids". She said. "C'mon Ester" she said walking out the door. "Wait Fran" Harc hollored.It was to late Fran was driving out the drive.

Heading home was harder "What was I doing,i'm my own fool"Fran cried.Ester looked at Fran sadly.

Fran opened the front door to her manchion letting Ester in.Gracie ran up to Fran happily and hugging."Fran hey there".Gracie said grinning. "Hi honey" Fran said. Gracie took Fran's coat asking "Fran you've been crying dont fool me your face is bloddy red."Fran shook her head "I was but cant tell you dear, why". Fran walked down the short steps and walked into the kitchen wich Max was standing in."Sweetheart" he said kissing her."Hello Max" She said faintly."Fran's been crying" Gracie said leaving the room with a glass of punch.As max drew Fran a chair and he one as well, he ask "Frannie darling whats wrong you can tell me i'm your husband" Fran looked at him punching the words on her tounge that lined up in order. "I cant"Fran said sipping a cup of tea Max made."Now darling if its this darn bad you gotta tell" Max said worry in his eyes, Fran opened her mouth to begin the long line of words but then closed her mouth feeling a tingle of sadness in her mind. "Ok i'll tell" Fran said a tear falling onto the dusty blue table."Wait I cant tell you hold on a sec" Fran slide from her chair to the phone book. Harc Wingston she said in her mind. Wingston? How'd she think of that.Fran began looking for Wingston, there was hope as a long line of Wingston's appered.

Then in a bold letter Fran spotted a H then followed by arc.. Harc Wingston."Wow" Fran thought.She wrote the number on her sweaty palm 555-432-7654. Fran closed the book and walked outside. Maxwell starred at her oddly and watched her ever mouth move. Fran snatched her snazzy cell phone and dialed quickly.All in one ring a "Hello Harc Wingston here".Fran gasped at his voice."Hi".Fran said closing her eyes."Why Fran, it's you darling!" Fran grinned slyly then seeing Max's mad face she frowned also."umm Harc I need you to come over to my house and explain all is all to my husband please." Harc clapped in hands together in the backround.Fran frowned with a tumble of bee's in her stomach.

Two hours later Harc arrived at the mansion."Hey" Fran said as Harc walked in grinning."Nice home"he said kissing her lips.Max is in the kitchen, Fran said pulling from the kiss very fast.

Harc sat at the table frowning. Fran sat on a tall chair behind Maxwell holding his shoulder."Hello i'm Harc Winston." Maxwell nodded and said his name.Then Harc began the story.Gracie walked in during the middle of the story Harc seeing her stopped fast."Hello little girl" He said sounding casually. "Hi" Gracie walked over to the table with a glass of tea.Gracie having no clue of the secret pulled up a chair and sat with them.Fran felt very uneasy and left.Gracie soon got bored with the quiet men and went on.Several minutes later Fran came back .Then Harc Began where he ended.At the end of the conversation he show'd Max the picture's. Gracie walked in agian having no clue "still here huh?" She said looking at the photo's.Fran snatched the photo's and ripped them.Many a pieace of photo fell onto Gracie's sandals.Gracie shewed them off and walked away like a curios fox."Close one"Fran said sweeping the pictures mess.

After Harc left Fran went to bed. Days past.Even a month or so.Fran had Harc over for dinner often they became great friends and her relationship with Max was poor but they still kept up making love, only since Harc left it had been once a week.And making love from hence forth was dull and hurt alot, and it was too fast,Fran always stopped about 18 minutes into it.Still it was a routine that kept up and Max was getting uneasy with Fran's rush.

While Fran was sitting with Max watching t.v., Max announced they tell the kids so Harc agian came over to tell.Gracie lost her bond with Fran and never asked for advise on girl stuff very much.Maggie was still open with Fran and was not to demanding.Brighton still blushed every time he'd see Fran.

Then 4 months past.Jonah and Eve still to young to tell.Fran was on her way to getting home from the vet for Ester's cheack up.Fran walked in her home as usual Max,Gracie and them stood whipping there face.Fran paused and walked down the stairs. Max came up to Fran "Honey we got a call from a lady saying Harc has been in a car crash". Fran jumped up "well is he ok?" Gracie shook her head "no Fran he did'nt make it". Fran folded her face into Max's shirt crying.What was happining to Fran?She, in the past had a relationship with that man,made love to him, then got in a car crash and had to learn there love all over agian, years later.And just when Fran was remembering there strong past, he dies.

("Goodbye" plays now)Fran stood back "I just was remembering some of the good times"Fran cried "I had no clue I loved him like I love you Max" Fran rushed up the twisting stairway holding her hand over her mouth."I'll go Maggie said patting her pink dress.When Maggie reached the bathroom, Fran sat on the edge of the tube, her face dug into a red towel."Mom are you saying that you had the same love for Harc as you do for daddy?" Fran looked like a lost puppy when she looked at Maggie."Well I love your father so damn much and still Harc brings my childhood and wild Fran back."The pound puppy look on her face made Maggie hug her mom even tighter."So, this means an officail divorce?" Fran stood up quickly."Divorce. Sweetie no we can't possibly have a divorce over this it's just me reacting at this time." "Loving another man deeply when you love another the same, could cause a good divorce" Maggie said grabbing Fran's shoulder that was covered in black lace from her black shirt with long see threw lace sleves.Tear splots were all over her denim Mudd jeans.Maggie sat back down as Fran did."Girl get outta here it's me acting up I know me". Maggie shook her head "But Fran there are actions you make that you may not realize are so bad, we, your family see it clearly no if its wrong or write. Sometimes you see the light, not always.Frank shook her head agian."You have wise words but honey no divorce is in order".

After a good long talk with Maggie, Fran went to her room and changed into her gown. Fran stood in the master bathroom looking in the mirror, long wavy black hair cascading around her shapley face, A bright tan and creamy face, brown sweet eyes, but Fran saw worse about her image. She saw black dull straight hair, numd pale lips, pale cream face, and poor whinning brown eyes. No one else agreed with her.Like judges from when she was in school in miss pagents.Her parents said she was a cute baby and a gorgeous women all inside and out.Friends saw a sly, hip, mother with good ideas and a friend to be around when your surrounded by ugly people.Maxwell saw her a a successfull wife,a beauty queen,the #1 mother of all time. The kids looked up to her nonetheless.Jonah and Eve thou they were one year old tot's that still wet there dipers they loved mommy dearly.

Fran took one final glance and walked out the door, flopped on her water bed and closed her eyes.("Wish You Were Here" plays now)inside Frans awake mind memories of Harc flew in. It began with Fran a young tot about 5 running in a feild Harc following with a slow Danny racing foot foward.Since Fran was 4 Val,DeDe,Tay,Mario,Eldon were her best friends. But since Fran was 2 she knew Danny and Harc,they began to fight over who got the pretty girl when they turned 3.Running afar stopping on a windy hill.Harc got to her first, panting her sat right by Fran's side.^ seconds later Danny came up and held Frans hair back as the deal was set for the loser.

Fran opened her eyes rolled over dipped under the covers and fell into a non-Harc dream.6 minutes later Maxwell came slowly into the room.Fran had not gotten to sleep yet."hey maxxie" Fran said trying to giggle.Max got under the covers and said "Hey Francine Joy Fine".This might have been the slowest nicest making love experience they had experienced in months.("Wish you were here" fades out then "A Broken Heart can mend" plays)(making love part lasts for a while)

The next morning Fran woke up alone in bed as she had woken up to since 1999 in june. Slipping out of bed was easy, dressing fancy for the fueneral home to veiw Harc's body was the hard part.As Fran looked fiercly threw her closet she only had a little black being 5 months ago she gave all her good black dress's to charity.All that was black was a old tank top. A pair of socks, boots, and 2 black Lakeside jeans.Fran got upset and went into Maggie's room,Maggie must have been gone, Fran searched in her closet.Finding a dress that was black was harder than she thought.Maggie had alot of bright dress's but at the end of the closet 2 black dress's hung one went to about the knee the other 5 inches past the knee, Fran chose the one that went to the knee.It was a normal black danty dress.Slipping it on and looking at her good figure in Maggie's big mirrior.

Fran walked downstair's no one in the sitting room.In the kitchen Fran met Maxwell and Maggie dressed up and ready "Mom thats my dress"Maggie inquired.Fran nodded looking like that pound puppy agian.Maxwell cam up to her and kissed her neck grinning. Fran giggled slightly and took a long glass from the cupboard, pouring a glass of milk to calm her uneasyness.Maggie walked out of the room to get Gracie and Brighton wich were in the twins room's getting them spiffy for the veiw.("A Rainy Night in Georgia" plays as the scene silences)

{in the silence, Fran is kissing and hugging Max,Maggie is walking outside,Brighton is powdering Jonah,Gracie is fixing Eve's hair.Ester in running outside.Cars on the street go by. Wildlife springs in the Shefields garden.}

(song fades out)(now the scene takes place with the family walking outside as the song ends)

Fran squeezed Eve's hand as she held her in the car.Jonah sat crying on Maggie's lap."I wish this could be normal" Brighton said finally.Maxwell patted Brightons head as the limo pulled into a huge drive 12 cars in a stright line. side by side. The chauffer pulled the limo about 2 box's away from the end on the line by a yello jeep.Eve gooed and giggled as Fran tikkeled her softly.Quickly the chauffer opened the door the family walked out two by two.

In the feuneral home the family sat in the kiddie room untill some people left.A lady with long blonde hair that was walking in the hall seen them and invited hershelf in the kiddie room."Hello i'm Diane Harc's ex-wife" Fran stood up with Eve in her arms "Hello i'm Fran Shefield, I geuss you could call me his ex-fian`ce." Diane sat down in an open chair by Gracie."Oh, you're the one that was in the car crash".Fran gripped back tears and nodded."Sweetie dont cry,I feel the same way".The lady had a strong Southern accent.Although the lady wore a cream colored dress wich was a similar brand to the one Fran was wearing.

Finally, only 2 people were there Diane and the parents of Harc, Fran talked to each of them for a semi-long time.When Diane and The Wingston's stepped into the kiddie room.The rest of the Shefield's sept Fran sat in the very back of the pew seats.

Fran walked slowly up to the coffin a Daisy in her hand Eve in the other.Fran stopped and layed the Daisy along Harc's chest, she kissed his cheek and intruduced Eve to him.Then Fran sat with family as they all one by one walked to see.

Several hours past.Fran met up with Diane agian and they talked about Harc in the kiddie room while Max took the family home, Diane said she could drop Fran off later."He was a good kisser, I know" Diane said puffing her cheek out for awhile.Fran told all about what she remembered and Diane was a great listener "There was this one time I was at his house alone sitting on the couch, there was a knock at the door when I opened the door there was Harc his black hair swayed to one side,his spanish accent cuter than hell,his tan skin softer than a puppy's, giant batch of roses, chocolete,and a teddy bear.He dropped the stuff on the table and picked me up.While he did this he light 4 candles put them on the ground sat the chocolete on the ground sat the roses in the back of us, the teddy bear in my hands, are heads resting on a pillow and a soft blanket over are bodies, soft music playing.We talked sexy talk stuck chocolete's in our mouth kissed and finally got some wine then, I blew out the candles put them on a ledge, Harc took the teddy bear and sat in away,I dimmed the lights and then there on the living room floor we made extra long slow love."Diane smiled getting a bigger one on the way."Yes, well how many times did you make love?" Diane asked getting into it.Fran giggled and looked out the window "more than 59 times i know" Wow I only had a good 3 times. We were married only 6 months long. Fran grinned and said "Well i'll be, we better get home".Diane nodded getting up.

The ride home was quite neither lady said a word they just listened to the news on the radio {radio-Today a man was arrested for raping his 6 year old daughter-The west niles disease has gotten worse...}

Then Diane drove into the Shefield drive Fran got out said bye and walked inside.

(As she does, the scene looks over Culver City as "Never Say Goodbye" plays)
