Martha repeatedly blinked in utter disbelief, her heart threatening to explode in her chest, she could not comprehend the situation. “Simon!” She shouted hysterically, pulling at his arm in a rather violent manner. His upper body was naked and she was wearing his shirt. What if she were to remove the sheets covering his lower part and see him in all his glory bareness? Beyond the shadow of a doubt, she would never do such a thing! At least, not while she was sober. While intoxicated… that might have been another case entirely.
