Designed for Deceit

Who knows what attracts one person to another person when it comes to love. Who knows if the love you start with will be the love you end up with. Donna was a beautiful young nurse up on her game and fast becoming a leader when she met John. John was already at the top of his game. A well known and in demand architect who owned his company and had his name attached to many of the large high-rise buildings in the area. So how do two people of this caliber meet? Most would say the Internet, mutual friends but it was none of this. It was the old fashioned way. You know, girl goes to club with her friends sits at a table with a large group of beautiful women all drinking wine or the latest concoction on the market where no man in his right mind would go. John was no exception to that rule but he kept his eye on the beautiful redhead smiling and occasionally looking his way. Who could help but stare at either specimen of gorgeous! The ladies at Donna’s table dared her to write her number in a napkin and slip it in his hand at the bar and then walk on by. Donna already having her second glass of wine, started feeling wine brave and sure enough did just that. John was impressed when he read what Donna written and so after the three days wait that men always seem to do, John called Donna one restful evening after work and so started their love story... Within the year, there was a whirlwind courtship, and marriage and life seemed to be moving in the right direction. John had his own firm and was well known and Donna was moving up the ranks at the hospital and had made Head Nurse over the surgical nurses. Both had achieved career goals. They had wanted children and weren’t trying to prevent it but with busy schedules they just didn’t have that much time to even be together to make love these days. Time had passed pretty uneventfully for over 12 years until the John won the bid for a beautiful high-rise building in Seattle and things were not so uneventful anymore.
