I’m home watching TV, the phone rings!Unknown CALLER,it displayed. Curiosity kills the cat!. I picked up the phone and said hello.

There was a woman on the other side, accusing me of stealing her boyfriend!

What? Who’s this?

You know who I am, I’m Steven’s fiancé.

Lady, I don’t know what you’re talking about. I think you have the wrong number. I don’t even know a Stephen.

So I hung up with her, very politely.

The next morning at 7 AM I got a phone call from her again

You know good slut, put Stephen on the phone!Here we go again! I said to myself.

All of a sudden, she busted out crying! He didn’t come home.The sheets aren’t even wrinkled. something is wrong, it’s not like him not to call me.

I asked the stranger, did you call the hospitalsand the police?She answers yes!!

I’m sorry to hear that, although I don’t know you, and you don’t know me!

By this time, we are on a first name basis. Her name was Karen.

She asks, if I could stay on phone,because her house bell was ringing erratically! Half in my sleep, I answered Ok !

She comes back, screaming, help me,help me!

Stephen just crawled into the door way. He’s covered in blood.I think he’s been shot in the knee!

Omg, I replied. Give me your address and I’ll call an ambulance! She was historical crying, totally out of her mind with panic!She thanked me for helping her out. The ambulance came and took him to the hospital immediately!

The next day she called me.She tells me he will be OK, but he is handcuffed to the bed. He robbed a bodega! The police caught him,stopped him with a bullet!.

Boy, this girl has problems,I thought I was depressed?

Within the six years that he has been incarcerated,Karen and I became friends. She turned out to be a nice person with a big heart.

She said she’s not going back with him.( I don’t think so). I said ,do what your gut and heart says! It’s been an interesting couple of months!

Also, a strange way of making a new friend
