“Pizza anyone?”
Those were the last words that she heard before her world changed forever.
Standing in front of her, the most magnificent creation that God had ever made.
He was looking straight at her and it seemed no one else was in the room.
She knew that her life would never be the same as he walked toward her.
He stopped within inches of her face and she inhaled the intoxicating smell.
She was starting to perspire and her heart was racing.
In his hand, he held the key to her heart.
Hot, bubbly, cheese, with pepperoni, mushrooms, sausages, black olives with a light golden brown crust.
Her eyes fixated on the perfected concoction and he said, “Will there be anything else, ma’am?
” No, thank you .” she managed to grunt as she took her first bite.
And that pizza boy wasn’t bad either.

Loved it! She was pretty well mesmerized by the pizza boy. I think it was a tough first between him and the pizza. 🙂 I enjoyed reading your story.

Excellent story, Bynda! I love the way you build us up to believe she’s drooling over the man, then describe that mouthwatering pizza. The last sentence is perfect, too.
