Huston, Edgar and Mae
Frances met at the Skirvin Hotel, where they both
worked. Mae Frances was doing her job when she
noticed the same guy would come by every day smiling
at her. She said "Hi." to him. Edgar wanted to ask
her to lunch. Although be knew he didn't have enough
money for himself, he asked her anyway He had lunch
with her every day and always told her he had eaten
already. Mae Frances began to fall in love with
Edgar's big dreamy eyes. What she didn't realize is
that his eyes were so dreamy because he was so
hungry and drooling over her desserts.
