A SHORT LOVE STORY

A man and a woman who had never met before found themselves assigned to the same sleeping room on a transcontinental train.

Though initially embarrassed and uneasy over sharing a room, they were both very tired and fell asleep quickly, he in the upper berth and she in the lower.

At 1: 00 AM, the man leaned down and gently woke the woman saying,………..’Ma’am,

I’m sorry to bother you, but would you be willing to reach into the closet to get me a second blanket?

I’m awfully cold’

‘I have a better idea,’ she replied ‘Just for tonight, let’s pretend that we’re married’

‘Wow! ………….. That’s a great idea!’, he exclaimed.

‘Good,’ she replied, ‘Get your own damn blanket.’

After a moment of silence, ………………… he farted.

The End
