Chap 2 p 30

I was trying to contain my excitement while holding
my lips in anticipation of a long worded conversation.
She grinned back and gestured for a handshake, to
which my heart pounded more rapidly as I offered mine
in return.
It was electrifying when I touched her soft hand.
Currents traversed through every streak of my nerves,
which suddenly awakened the morose passion confined
in my adulthood for a long time. I never had such sheer
feeling of excitement as intense as this, much less to say,
I have never had any woman before.

Growing as an adolescent, the only teenaged crush
that I ever had for a girl was for Miss Nessy, my
mathematics teacher at the parochial school in Saint
Benedict, San Diego.
I was already in my senior high school year when she
substituted to a teacher on maternity leave and taught math
in our class. Just fresh out of college, it was her first year
of teaching. She was still very young, beautiful, tall, green
eyed and blonde-haired too and I was foolishly infatuated
with her stunning beauty.

from the author

This novel is purely a work of fiction. Nevertheless, some of the events mentioned in the story may have already happened and though imaginary characters depicted here rolled around these events, any resemblance to actual names of persons, living or deceased, real events and locales, is wholly coincidental.

Of Passion Play is humbly, my masterpiece.

It is my first book and though I've conceptualized the plot of the story a long time in the past, drawing the ornate first letter and writing the concluding word of the epilogue took almost a year to complete. The initial manuscript was edited, rewritten and re-edited several times for another five months until the final piece is done. But, publication became a standing block, a high wall to scale specially for first-time authors like myself wishing to have this printed. So, I decided to change strategy and transcribe Of Passion Play from traditional paperback format to a version in computerbytes and codes for viewing in the internet. I 've presented here as an overview of the book, excerpts from some exciting chapters which I hope you'll like.
