The elevator ride up seems to last an eon. I find him easily enough, in the open plan office. He was one desk clerk lost in a sea of many. He greets m... with a kiss straight away. I stand awkwardly as his tongue licks my lips. I have never kissed anyone before. He asks me to lunch, and so we leave. We step into the elevator. The moment the doors close, he is on me. His hands clench in my hair, his lips are hot on mine. The elevator slows down and he pushes away from me abruptly. A group of 4 men. After all, we don't wantyou to be late for your own party do we!"Cindy locked the shop and we strolled through the streets together."Hold your head up, don't slouch!" she scolded, sounding just like MaryPoppins talking to the children.We stopped."I know you must be a little scared," she said, turning towards me "butyou have to walk and hold yourself properly. Its the biggest give-awayif you walk like a man! Come on, come in here with me and we'll chatabout it."We slipped inside a smart city. Consider it my wedding present."She picked up her two trash bags and headed for the door. She opened the door and turned to me and said:"I'm sorry Rob. I love you; I really do love you and I didn't do what you think I did."And then she was gone.She called me the next day and asked me if I was ready to talk with her and I hung up on her. She made a half dozen more attempts, but I always hung up and eventually she finally gave up.Over the next month Mark made a dozen attempts to get me to talk to. I'm 6'2 and pretty buff typical for a farmer my dad died when I was young so I did most of the work around my place. After looking myself over I decided to get dressed. I grabbed some jeans and a brown plaid shirt. That buttoned up I got dressed and put on my belt with the gold buckle. I place my cowboy hat upside down beside the couch and sat down waiting. All of the sudden I hear a knocking at the door I realized I drifted off and it was now 9:05 shit I jumped up and open the door it was.
