Timing

 

Jesus, sometimes planets just don’t align do they ? 

Today a friend of three years , called in on his way past from a holiday in Ireland .

He messaged me out of the blue.

I haven’t seen him for over a year, and when we last met, any potential romance wasn’t on the cards as he was negotiating a drama ish break up of his own and even though I fancied him rotten way back then , I accepted the situation with some measured maturity I thought 😕…yeah! 

Today , I fed him tea and cakes, and we talked films and theatre and gossiped and laughed about life in general and his past year regrouping and when he got up to go, he totally surprised me, on the doorstep with a kiss that could have floored a Disney Princess

“I ‘ll call you” he sang out as he walked to his car, waving

My cheeks were burning….

Jesus, I thought , I hadn’t expected that at all …..and I noted that I hadn’t mentioned the surprise of the kiss as well as the presence of the fucking catheter once

And before you comment dear reader 

They are important details…….

Hey fucking ho
