On
my way to the car something funny happened,
Ok
funny and sweet...if I was really honest.
It
must have been around 6.15 p.m.
The
scurry to get out of the city was oh so dramatic.
All
roads leading out of town were jam packed,
People
just wanted to get home.
Funny
thing is,
It's
like the town didn't want to be left alone.
So
there I was,
Caught
up with other pedestrians,
Trying
to make our way home.
I
had just grabbed my pieces of cake from Cake City.
They
have lovely sponge cakes,
And
today I overindulged,
Slightly.
I
got me two thick slices of cake:
One
chocolate choc-chip,
One
caramel.
The
chocolate choc-chip I had tasted before.
It
was like 3 spongy dark chocolate cakes,
Each
on a bed of whipped cream,
With
hidden treasures of chocolate chips in between!
The
caramel was new for me.
It
had golden caramel drizzled on the frosty top,
Of
white sponge cake in between soft layers of cream.
Boy,
oh boy, wasn’t I looking forward to it!
Just
as I had crossed the street,
A
certain guy caught my attention.
He
did my eyes good because boy was he a hunk.
He
must have been 5 feet 7 inches thereabout,
Well
suited in a soft grey or was it a brown number.
Forgive
my confused recollection.
His
perfect face and gorgeous eyes had me a bit...
Okay,
a lot distracted.
Not
to mention his demeanour...
Breathtaking.
He
continued in my direction,
And
I towards him.
Would
he notice me?
What
was I asking?
Notice
me?
He
was going to.
Head
high,
Confident
in my stride,
I
walked on by...until my left foot tipped on the side,
I wobbled,
did a funky leg!
I
almost tripped myself!
"Woops!"
I think I whispered under my breath,
Then
again knowing me, I might have said it out loud,
Half
laughing at myself, half cursing at my shoe.
"I
could have fallen," I thought while laughing on the inside,
"Bet
he saw it all! or did he? Hmm..."
Just
as we were crossing paths,
We
made eye contact and shock on me...
His
lips even moved!
He
was talking to me!
"Sorry,"
he said, followed with a warm beautiful smile...
"Thank
you," I said,
And
walked on smiling.
I
knew it. He saw it.
That
I, I almost fell for him-
Literally...then
again,
He
noticed me which was ... funny - sweet.
Hahaha...a good way with words Miriam
