He hummed the entire tune to " love me do " in anticipation to tell her how he felt. A twenty-minute drive so he could see her. He has no ipod, no radio, he commutes smiling and listening to the music in his head. She will no doubt be waiting for him because he arranged this tryst a half hour before.
"How about we meet at our favorite park?" He asked.
"Your favorite park, No. " she responded.
"Alright, What about at the pond where we fed the ducks?"
His kind voice made her irksome as he asked ever so politely.
"No." she said again.
"Okay. Great idea. The Coffee House, Ill buy you a vanilla cappuccino." He tried once more.
"That will work." She finally agreed.
He was two minutes away when he started planning his poetic speech.
" I ... You are to me..." He murmured. "No, My Love for you is like winter." "Perfect" he thought.
As he pulled into the lot, his eyes searched every parked car for his Love's yellow V.W. bug.
"Where is her chariot?" He wondered. "
Surely she is here. I told her exactly 3:00pmHe checked the dash clock, and compared it with his wristwatch. The car read 3:02, and his watch read 2:59.
Without a worry he strolled inside and greeted the curly haired barista with a wave and smile.
"Can I have a vinte vanilla cappuccino with soy milk. It is for my girlfriend , she is lactose intolerant. Yea, she will be here any moment, oh could you add extra whip to that please?"
He felt demanding and tipped the barista a five, bringing the total bill to $10 dollars. He took a seat with the best view of the only entrance. An over sized love seat that would be plenty of room to share their love. He fluffed the two maroon swade pillows and placed them symmetrically on both ends. As he waited comfortably, he compared his wristwatch to the coffee mug wall clock. 3:14 and 3:15 read the two timepieces. Any moment now...
