Easy to look @
He says my name and I can hear his accent. I'm trying to get my walking papers squared away. I saw his car as he pulled in beside me. "Are you there yet?" He just looked at me with a smile so bright it almost brought tears to my eyes. "As of last week I'm a free woman" I don't smile because I know he must think I'm flirting and I'm trying really hard to just walk on by, even though I would like to stop and talk. Craving adult conversation. "So you can do whatever you want whenever you want?" It's not nasty when he says it but it's nasty when I process it. I have avoided this part of base because I didn't want to run into him, it's not a good hair day. "It's wild today?" I can see his hand in slow motion it's coming for my fro I stumble backwards and almost bust my ass. He catches my arm and helps me balance. I smile but my voice is lost "How about I take you to lunch?" I almost choke because he knows I'm married. "I'm married." He simply shakes his head and grabs my hand and holds it up to the sun...my hand is bare. "Another morning shower?" I look at him and I know it must appear to the world that we are lovers "You're really silly you know that?" I take my hand back. "So you really are married you're not just trying to get rid of me?" His skin is so fucking chocolate I imagine it smells sweet. "Yes for almost a decade been married to the same person" I realize when the words exit my mouth I sound stupid. I know at this point my mind is the last thing on his. "Impressive" he gives me his sunshine smile and I know it's time to go. I just walk away from him to afraid to turn around to see if he's looking at me, then I hear it, he says loud enough for me to hear "Damn" I get in my truck and exit in the opposite direction. I guess we all get tested everyday. Don't know why I keep getting the same test, but he sure is easy to look at.
