When you wanted something he didn't understand, you could see his brain working to figure it out. He would whimper with eagerness to please. John is that way. The only danger is the Italian in him. When I see that moody bitterness, I want to beat him like Trina.
Blows are a currency which devalues fast.
The more you spend, the less they're worth. I am proud to say I have only hit John three times. Just tuned him up a little. Trina is more of a problem. I've hit her much more often than that.
