Why not!
Why Not?
Can I really have established
a new connection so easily?
Nothing in life is that simple.
So I ask, just to make sure,
“Are you sure? Because I can
bring the money to you.”
Not that I can really tell him
when, or how. But still…
But he says, I really do get to Reno,
more often than I’d like, in fact.
I’ll have to come over in the next
week or two. We can hook up then.
But you’d better be good for the rest,
or else…He pounds one fist against
the opposite palm, but his smile
lets me know he’s only joking.
His smile. His incredible smile.
Stop it, Kristina! [No, don’t.]
What I Don’t Really Get
Is just why he’s being
so accommodating.
Just what, exactly, is his
game?
Can he possibly be
interested in me, baby
blubber and all? I want
to be back in the
game.
