The Sailor in Shinning Overalls

Little Miss Ameboba had a trying childhood growing up, she was as obvious as a spec you may say. All through her life people wouldn't haven taken two looks at this sad and lonely girl. Never had she the pleasure of being asked out for a movie, a secret note passed on to her by an  admirer nor a flower left on her desk during Valentines by some anonymous lad that had hoped to win her heart.

But all this was about to change when she went on to pursue her higher education. It was the first day of their induction camp when their eyes met, and out of the hundreds of guys that were there, she couldn't help but to think this one was special. He mastered in the arts of road works and was her senior by a few years. Tall, lanky with a goody two shoes hair cut and a "bit bit" shy attitude.

After awhile she had noticed that their conversations were leading no where and the question she had been longing to know was still left unanswered, so she decided to take the first move. Being one that knew nothing about how the "Love Game" was played and with childhood innocence she walked up to him and said.. "Hi!! Do you have a girlfriend??"

One would have thought that it was the end for our poor little Miss Ameboba but to our surprise, this  wasn't the case. Alas, destiny had it written that he would not be the master of the road upon graduation rather master of the seas, when he left aboard with his brethren to trenched uncharted waters leaving her behind.

Nevertheless, he would always be her "Sailor in Shining Overalls"..
