If Tomorrow Comes Sydney Sheldon Hmmm,

BOOK ONE
Chapter 01
New Orleans
THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 20--- 11:00 P.M.
She undressed slowly, dreamily, and when she was naked,
she selected a bright red negligee to wear so that the blood
would not show. Doris Whitney looked around the bedroom for
the last time to make certain that the pleasant room, grown
dear over the past thirty years, was neat and tidy. She
opened the drawer of the bedside table and carefully removed
the gun. It was shiny black, and terrifyingly cold. She
placed it next to the telephone and dialed her daughter's
number in Philadelphia. She listened to the echo of the
distant ringing. And then there was a soft "Hello?"
"Tracy... I just felt like hearing the sound of your
voice, darling." "What a nice surprise, Mother."
"I hope I didn't wake you up."
"No. I was reading. Just getting ready to go to sleep.
Charles and I were going out for dinner, but the weather's
too nasty. It's snowing hard here. What's it doing there?"

The Female Brain | Free Ebook



Kaum Hawa ini terkadang memang susah untuk dimengerti oleh kaum Adam, bahkan kebanyakan kaum Adam sama sekali tak pernah tahu apa sih yang benar-benar diinginkan oleh seorang wanita.
Seringnya wanita selalu berucap seperti ini kepada pasangannya:
“Harusnya kamu tuh mengerti aku!”
“Kamu engga pernah mengerti aku sama sekali…”
“Kamu cari tahu sendiri dong apa yang aku mau!”
Yang akhirnya timbullah di fikiran wanita kalau pasangannya tersebut tidak pernah peduli terhadap dia dikarenakan salah pengertian yang ditangkap oleh pria.

Para pria sering dibuat stress dengan sikap “Aneh” kaum Hawa ini meskipun mereka sudah berjuang dan berusaha mati-matian untuk melakukan apa yang dikatakan oleh pasangannya. Mereka selalu bingung dengan jalan pemikiran yang dimiliki oleh lawan jenis mereka.
