As
we shake hands we both laugh again and say in unison, “Nickname”…
“Obviously,” I say…
“Do
you think we can act like it never happened?”…
“Nah,
it’s too late for that,” he chuckles…
I
look down and chuckle, too, like a schoolgirl…
When
I look back up, he’s looking at me but I can see he’s monitoring my every move…
Curious,
I think…
He
likes paying attention to the details…
Time
for my walk, I think to myself…
I
say, “Nice meeting you but I want to go for a walk before the sun sets, I’ll
see you around”…
He
says, “Actually, I was planning to go for a run but a walk is cool, too”…
“Can
I join you?”…
“Sure,
if you promise to keep silent”…
“This
is a day of solitude and relaxation for me”…
He grins, “No problem, I’m not a big
talker anyway”…
“Perfect,
I was curious about that end of the beach where the point is. Seems like a
quiet and solitary spot”…
Somehow, it looks closer to the ocean I
think to myself…
Obviously
not…
We
start walking and we’re silent…
It
feels like this is the only place on earth…
You
don’t see any other masses of land except singular large rocks, jagged and
sharp…
Peering
out of the ocean like they’re trying to escape into the sky…
The sun is behind us, so you see our
shadows…
One
tall, one short, his linear, mine curvaceous…
I
take two steps for his every one…
Long
thick legs, nice feet for a guy…
Don’t
know too many people who can bronze like me…
His
shoulders shimmer from the lotion mixed with his sweat and glare from the sun…
His face red and skin taught from the
salt water…
Even
his lips have color and look a little swollen…
Wonder
what they taste like…
Wait
a second! ...
He’s
completely distracting me from the scenery…
He
must feel me staring at him…
He’s
looking forward though…
So,
I think I’m good…
The
sun is softening and the color of the sky is not so blue now…
Beautiful…
