Saved by the Bell – prompt by the Daily Post

Saved by the Bell

Tell us about a time when you managed to extract yourself from a sticky situation at the very last minute.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A couple I used to babysit for had a son who was about 13. I was 15. They didn’t want to tie him down to babysit his brother and sister so they hired me. Things went along well for several weeks and then one night he came home early with a friend and they tried to rape me. Thankfully it was time for his parents to come home so they hopped up and headed out the back door. Talk about saved by the bell (parents coming home).

About Tessa

My name is Tessa Dean and I am an author and blogger. My writing styles vary and I love writing using prompts. I am also writing my first book, a Memoir entitled "Government Property - A Memoir of a Military Wife". This is being published on the blog rather than the traditional way. I am putting up chapters as I go along. I keep my blog filled with useful content, stories, and poems. Plenty to keep you busy. I have also been interviewed by blogs and had other posts published on many different blogs. I also wrote a series of articles on Bipolar Disorder for IBPF (International Bipolar Foundation). I am in my 60’s and disabled which allows me plenty of time to write to my heart’s content. I live in southern New Jersey and have 3 children and 5 grandchildren. My oldest grandchild is a Sargent in the United States Marine Corps.

    There are such fiercely pathetic criminals who have no consideration for how another might feel hurt. This is sad. Sending good thoughts your way 😦
