Barry is very patient, and he doesn't get discouraged easily. He also feels that those who understand love the most can also withstand rejection. Barry continues to live his life as if nothing phases him. He lives a fairly routine life, working maintenance for the County on the day shift. After work he also does mostly maintenance ...on the simple one-story house he'd recently purchased. And he attends church Wednesday night for prayer group and a Bible study on Fridays.

After three years, Cinderella and Barry get married, and her parents agree it is a very sensible thing to do. They look forward to living a healthy and balanced life together.

The first additions to the family come by the names of Joshua and Caleb ...twin baby boys.

Six years later, it's twins again, by the names of Moriah and Mary.

The children are more than a handful ...but also a heartful. And as they grow, Cinderella and Barry look forward to them becoming strongly independent and upstanding individuals some day.

As both girls become twelve, the older twin boys continue to watch after their younger sisters.  This allows Cinderella to have more time on her hands ...and she looks to fill that time.  And the church somehow seems to feel that it is their role to fill the majority of that time.

The church leaders had voiced a need for more Christian activity ...and many outreach programs are organized.

County inspections are coming up ...so, Barry is needed, and he works quite a bit of overtime.  His is not able to make it to the extra church functions, but Cinderella doesn't mind ...she is beginning to think she has more fun without Barry.  She feels that Barry is sort of an embarrassment.

Cinderella likes going out to eat, but she keeps envisioning how Barry always stuffs his mouth and eats too much.  To her, he also kind of looks like a squirrel when he eats, stuffing his cheeks like that.

And nobody fancies to the squirrelly misfit misbehaviors while rallying around and raving about whom everyone is nuts about. And that whom just happens to be Jack. The 'new' guy at church is also very outgoing, and begins to attend all the functions. The strange thing is ...that even the married women seem to be interested in this single guy.  And Jack doesn't seem to mind stirring the pot either.

What is really happening here?  To them, nothing at all ...just honest Christian fellowship.
