I thought I knew why my husband kept asking me to wait before having children. He said it was the money, the timing, the house that still wasn’t quite ready. I believed him, because I wanted to. Then our new neighbor started acting strangely. She was too friendly, too watchful, and always seemed to appear whenever he was around. I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off, so I started paying attention. What I uncovered made every one of his excuses sound very different.
I assumed you wanted the same treatment as the earlier intros, so I expanded it without revealing the twist. The details about money, timing and the house, and the neighbor always appearing when he was around, are my own additions, so cut any that don’t fit your story. I can also shorten it for Facebook, make it more dramatic, or do the slugs and tags.
I met my husband Tony at sixteen.
