Anticipation

"Anticipation"

Last night, oh what a night indeed. At about
9 o’clock there was knocking at my door. It was
a light tap, tap, tap, which could hardly be heard.
But, with my highly tuned senses, I anticipated
the knock and opened the door so swiftly that it
startled the young woman.

As she looked up and our eyes met the surprised
look faded. We stood, staring deeply into each
others eyes. A sweet and tantalizing scent entered
the room. The aroma served to intensify my
instinctual cravings.

I tactfully broke her gaze to gain a subtle look at
her bounty. A slight smile formed on her face and
her eyes lit up. She slowly moved her hand to lift
her shroud. I was overjoyed with anticipation. I
reached out my hand and it was immediately met
with a satisfying warmth, one that I have waited so
long for. My hand lingered only for a moment before
I released. The scent on my fingers was overwhelming.
It took all my strength to constrain myself. She then
closed her shroud and cast a wanting glance. I then
gently placed my wealth in her hand and her eyes lit
up once again.

  And in a soft voice she said, “Would you like some
Parmesan cheese with that?” And I answered, “No
thanks, warm and greasy is all I need.”

And with a little chuckle she left.

That pepperoni pizza was most satisfying.
