S. B. Borgersen

You hated geometry at school. Calculus, more so.

You loved your gold braided, forest green blazer with the inside pocket. The hunky maths teacher, more so.

His garlic breath was unexpected as he closed in to guide you through complex calculations. His hairy-backed hand closing over your slender pale one didn’t give you the buzz you’d anticipated. How he managed to slip the note into your inside pocket will always be a mystery. Why you didn’t shiver as his hand brushed your left breast, more so.

Shoeboxes full of love notes, great for your memoirs. But fiction, more so.
