Agnes And Walter

Has a very promising start: a young man and woman escape their monotonous life by enacting heroic fantasies, on the amusing soundtrack of old-school Hollywood movies.

the Secret life of Walter Mitty – Lives on in me…. - Kevin Hughes Blog

You lean over and give her a thousand dollars and say: ” This fell out of your purse. Why don’t you take the kids out for new clothes and ice cream?” The smile and awed look on her face, as her emotions pour across the lines of her face, like water over and icy windshield. Unable to comprehend you generosity ; she simply melts into your arms, and sobs. “Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. ” You hear coming from her voice, muffled in your chest. You smile.
