… I don’t know what it was.
Something just drew me to him.
Was it was his limpid eyes … ?
Or was it his adorable big ears … like an elephant.
Maybe it was his smooth moves.
He wore the cool blues and deep plum purples like a second skin.
And yes I know those colors are not “in season” … but it didn’t seem to matter to him … or to me.
He wore them with a certain kind of flair. Like it was a perfectly natural thing to do.
I knew I shouldn’t.
I had absolutely no business being attracted to him.
But once I saw him, I was hooked … totally hooked. Isn’t that ironic?
And I had to have him.
I just had to.
We looked deeply at each other.
No words were exchanged.
Before I knew it … almost before I realized what was happening … he was mine.
No names.
Names were not needed.
And yes, I know … I had no business bringing him to my house.
After all … it’s not like there was a real need there.
Not really.
But I’ve got him.
Now what am I going to do with him?
Pfft…get him a glass bowel with stones that match him etc, of course…
