A Very Short Love Story

A Very Short Love Story

A man and a woman who had never met before,
But who were both married to other people,
Found themselves assigned to the same sleeping room
On a Trans-continental 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 blanket.'

After a moment of silence,
......................
He farted.

The End
