My Real Romance

"Stop it kid. It's not going to work. Look away, now! Don't you have to get back with your class?"

A little brown haired, green eyed child is standing there, smiling at me. He's been here for the past 20 minutes. I bend down and stare him right in the eyes

"Do you want me to call security?"

He shakes his head no, still smiling.

"Then scram!"

He runs off giggling. I sigh and rub my eyes, walking over to the front desk where a big black lady's laughing at me.

I groan, "What's so funny Laverne?"

"You girl! Oh you brighten my day" she laughs more and I chuckle.

"What time is it?"

"About time for you to get your skinny ass out of here"

I salute her and walk right out of the museum. I walk down some steps into a parking lot. I stop, stand there and start to think.

Where did I park?

I look around and spot it. A dark blue Jeep.

"Ah, there you are"

I go to it, open it up and jump in. I turn the car on and look at the clock.

"Shit son!! Shit shit!!"

6:30, and I'm late for my appointment. I drive as fast and as safe as I can and make it there at 6:54. I hurry in, out of breath.

"I'm so...sorry. I didn't realize-"

"It's ok Ivy. Your my favorite customer. I'll let it slid" I sigh out of relif and sit down.

"Thank you so much Caren. This means alot."
