happen at work? You’re

complication can they handle.

The
Forbidden Fruit

    Taylor, who was sitting up 11 o clock at
night, started to have a flashback. Taylor starts thinking about
her life before the army. She lived in an area of Massachusetts
that was warm but leaves of autumn were abundance. She loves her
home and this is where she met Tony Stuck, her current boyfriend.
Tony was Taylor’s best friend for many years. Tony knew everything
about Taylor and vice versa. Moreover, both were outcast in high
school and college, never living up to the popular standards.
Growing up like this never affected them because at the end they
had each other. As time passed, both of them started to develop
feelings for each other. It was not love at first sight heaven
knows, but it was almost like a business merger. Both enjoyed the
pleasures of life, knew each other action, emotion, and thought
pattern. They never knew opposite love only that they felt safe
with each other. They came from a very small town. Although, the
town and the town’s people were far from racists; it was little
ethnic diversity there. No blacks no Hispanics or Asians just white
people and Native Americans. It wasn’t until Taylor decided to join
the Army that she ventures out of her zone. Taylor started to
change a lot. She would go out in try to find adventure, while Tony
wanted to stay status quote. Tony was totally against the idea of
her joining. Tony was selfish, not wanting to share her with the
world. Although, he was against the idea he knew he could not
contain her spirit. Andre was also thinking about his life before
the military.
    Andre was different, while Taylor had zest
for life, Andre was a confused tornado. Andre lost a lot of people
in his life at an early age, but instead of living on the edge it
just made him aware of his situation. He wanted to get into the
entertainment business but after a couple years he decided he could
not. Year after year, tried different jobs and hobbies each failing
or leaving him with a dead end thought about that moment. In
between those years he met Anne Leigh, a bubbly girl with an equal
intelligence and nature to explore. Both were now facing a crisis.
While Andre ponders about his past Taylor was still in thought
also. Taylor thought about when she first went into the field.
Taylor felt lost but was eager to learn. Andre did not know that
Taylor saw him first, when he was arguing with Meads over rations.
She saw him as a comic relief, someone who could make her laugh.
She had no idea that they were going to meet up that day. When
Taylor first spoke to Andre, it was about the unit. She did not
like how he bashes the unit or her fellow officers. However she
never stops him from talking about them, because she enjoys his
company. Taylor saw him sleep that night in woke him up. At most,
he would have told her to leave him alone, but he did not. Andre
was more than happy to talk to her, and sit up with her that entire
night. It was the last night they spent together. Taylor fell for
him, so she wanted to pursue him. Both of them had their match so
when they first met each other the feeling of new love was
confusing. Andre loves his wife but can’t help to think what if
Taylor is his “one”. She is his totally opposite and is something
he avoided all his life. One word that could describe Andre is
“cautions” which Taylor is not. She
