A/N:
This fan fic is a retelling of the short story “Johnny Lingo and
the Eight-Cow Wife” by Patricia McGerr. (Not the movie, 'coz I only
found out about it after I've written this fic.) The original story
is in the first person point of view as narrated by a minor
character, but this lil' fic of mine is written in Bella's point of
view because I was always interested in what Sarita, the heroine, had
to say about the matter. @_@
The
setting is in Ford and Settle, fictional Pacific islands I made up by
changing and omitting certain letters from the names of those places
we are all too familiar with. Heh, pretty original, I know. LOL
Time
period is contemporary, and the story may sound old-school but I
imagine my islands are so small and remote that they are untouched by
modernization and are not much different culturewise from what they
were 40 years ago.
And
just so you know, I was listening to “Just the Way You Are” by
Bruno Mars while writing this, which explains the cheesy, fluffy
conversations. And the title. :)
Special
thanks to my comma police, TDS88, jennej, and PTB mod
Remylebeauishot. Your advice and book recc's are very much
appreciated! :))
