Soulmates Shirley Mendonca

The rain was coming down lightly as Brenda rushed to the bus stop after dropping her sons Josh and Eddie off at Mrs. Grimes, the babysitter. "Thank goodness I only live three blocks from the bus stop. Of course I would forget my rain coat." Brenda said to herself as she stepped on the bus. Brenda had only been back in the workforce for a year and it was certainly taking some time to readjust after nine years of staying at home with the children. Brenda didn't have a choice of not working since her husband of nine years decided he didn't want to be married any longer. As the story continues Brenda was on her lunch break when she met her high school crush who was on leave from Germany where he was serving in the Army. They spend time together only to realize they could indeed become soumates.
