Thus Spoke

They meet briefly.

She's wearing a dress with a label no one will remember two seasons from now but everyone wants to have and a pair of silver peep-toe slingbacks that reveal her pastel-pink pedicure.
He's wearing an Old Navy sweater two sizes too big and flip flops, the kind that smell of grape jelly.

They greet. She with a tilt of her perfectly sculpted eyebrows, he with a crooked grin.

She swings her Kate Spade across her shoulder and stalks off.
He heads to the bar for a beer.

She's been fantasizing about him all night.
He doesn't know.
