Secret tale

the long version

In a town called Brownsville, Lee's unassuming life is jolted by the arrival of a woman, Osaris, who carries an aura of mystery about her. Unlike most women he knows, Osaris suggests a strange world of achievement, performance, and direction. Severely feeling a lack of these lately in his life, it is perhaps little wonder that Lee is drawn to Osaris. Finding himself in pursuit of this woman, Lee guesses that the current version of himself-at least that part of him that he cares to reveal-is hardly the kind that will find favor in the eyes of Osaris. But what can he do? Is there enough of him, in him, that could meet squarely with this challenge?
