Pleurisy Quotes

“But, Mike, I don’t want to wear a brace.”
“You’ll give it a chance, won’t you?”
“Well, if I can wear it under my clothes.”
“Sure and you can. I’ve made it that soft it won’t chafe.”
I took off my shirt and undid the top buttons of my underwear. “You’ll have to put it on me, Mike. I’ll never figure out how it works.”
“Lift up your arms, then, and I’ll slip it on.”
I did. But instead of slipping it over my arms, it was himself he slipped between them. He kissed me in the hollow of my throat, and it was a long time before we got those braces on.”
― Benedict Freedman, Mrs. Mike
