Sally married her older man, and he set her up in a big house in a new subdivision. Though they have no kids, he insists that she not work. So each morning after he leaves for work, Sally goes for a long jog.

One Monday in the green space near her home she notices a lean to built of a fridge box and scrap plywood in the grove of trees.

The next day, she sees a strapping young man, dirty and dishevelled but well built, not like the old bum imagined, sitting by the shelter.

Day three he waves at her.

Day four she waves first and says hello.

Day five does not see him, the shelter is gone.

The next Monday, sally jogs by, sees the man in the tees. she goes over and starts a conversation. He explains he lost his house his job his family and when his employment insurance ran out, he started sleeping rough. sally offers him a meal. When they get to her house, she notices the odour and insists that he shower...
 
...as he showers, she fantasizes about the soup cleaning his rugged muscles...
