The sewer

Mr. John L. (Lover) Dumb went down the street. He smoked a cigarette and promised never to look at girls and women.

The day was beautiful, the sun shined brightly in the blue sky, a light wind blew through the trees.

“I’ll call up my old friend Jack Woman-Hater and invite him to a restraunt, where we’ll sit the whole night through, drinking, talking. Maybe we’ll take acquaintance with some young, pretty silly things…” – thought Mr. John L. Dumb.

With this decision he crossed the street and saw such a beautiful girl, he had never seen before. Having forgotten his intention, he followed the girl who took his breath away in a moment he had seen her.

Following the girl Mr. John L. Dumb didn’t pay attention to the surroundings, to people, hurrying along the street, the sewers, which were opened at this moment.

Her saw only the girl’s golden hair, strong legs and perfect thighs.

“She’s cutting the ground from under my feet”, - he said to himself and fell into an opened sewer.

Fortunately, he didn’t forget to cry “help” before falling.

The girl turned round and noticed the legs, disappearing in the sewer. She was a good-hearted girl so she couldn’t help coming to his rescue. She called the ambulance but before it came, she came down the sewer and took poor fellow out.

Because of is unconsciousness she did him artificial desperation.

It is worth mentioning that the girl was Miss Rescue of England 1995. When Mr. John L. Dumb came to himself the first he saw were attentive girl’s eyes, which looked at him trusting and sympathetically. Then the ambulance came and two sturdy ambulance men put him on the stretcher and carried him to hospital.

Lying on the operating-table under the bright lamps Mr. John L. Dumb remembered the girl had given him her telephone number and now this small sheet of paper warmed the place near his heart.

What a pity he couldn’t touch it because his left arm was operated and his right arm was held by an unimaginably thick nurse. Afterwards the doctor had finished with the plaster-bandage, Mr. John L. Dumb was brought to a ward where he spent the rest of the day in pleasant dreams about the golden-haired goddess.

In a day he could already leave the hospital. Standing at the hospital’s doors Mr. John L. Dumb was very happy because he decided to start a new life with the new strong and new girls.

«I’ll see my rescuer today», - he thought. – «My little darling rescuer… and we’ll dine somewhere and then…»

Suddenly his heart stopped beating.

«I’d never seen such a beautiful woman before! What a neat figure, black hear…», - he said to himself, looking at the woman who just was passing him by. The golden-haired rescuer blew out of his head and he hurried after the woman. He saw nothing but her. People, houses, stones, shops, opened sewers didn’t exist for him now.

«I’ll get her but she’ll not be able to cut the ground from under my feet!» - he said and fell into a sewer.
