karjon's challenge--oldest trick

'But you can't leave,' she screamed, waving a plastic wand.

'What?' He snatched it from her and smiled as he understood what it was.'You're sure?'

She nodded and pulled another wand from her pocket.

He pulled her close and she hugged him.

All was well again. Now, for the hard part'she'd have to get pregnant.

Nice story, Trace, but is it really the oldest trick? I like your use of plastic wands and trickery though. Enjoyable romp through family planning difficulties. Cheers - Grae.

a little explanation--calling it a wand was my play on the trick idea, a magic trick--the double entendre being she tricks him into staying by saying she's pregnant--as if waving it would magically make everything all right. in actuality, the plastic wand is the plastic stick pregnancy test.
