"Cliff my name is Clancy....and before you start I know it's a boys name...my parents really wanted a boy" the young woman looked down at her hands, waiting for the massive man to say some sort of remark about her name.

"I like that name....it fits you" Cliff said placing both of his hands beside her. Looking down at her he felt his heart tugging "you hungry? I can make you something to eat" Cliff said as he quickly shook the feeling away.
