Bob, the Forgotten Valentine and Greedy Double Dater

My friends, this saga slowly unfurls a love story that went quickly awry, seems greedy Bob dated a pair of girls when with one, to the other he’d lie. The homlier girl’s name was Edith who, nonetheless Bob was fond of, but, greedy Bob wanted to live out the “myth” and with sisters, he was sure to find love ! He began slyly asking about sister Kate for her beauty was equalled by few, she was young, and he believed her well worth the wait she had enough sex appeal for two ! Bob’s antics had him severely troubled because, he covered his tracks day and night, his love-making prowess had quickly doubled so his lovelife was going just right ! Well, finally Bob’s saga ended in terror because the girls both found out what he’d done, Bob had mixed their names up, in a passionate error and what transpired next, was not very fun ! One of the sisters had taken Bob’s life because he’d proven he couldn’t be “true”, and the lesson he learned, at the end of that knife taught, “you can’t have your Kate…..and Edith, too !

That was a hoot! It seems like I've heard that ending before, somewheres, but never the rest, of course. Good luck in the contest if that's planned.
