witty-remark's Diaryland Diary

We sit across from one another in the blistering heat, sipping tea and exchanging glances. I solve my crossword while you draw me solving my crossword.
"Six letter word for ship's kitchen?"
You're penciling the outlines of my collar bones and thin wisps of my hair.
A welcome breeze delicately lifts the ruffles on my dress before you look up to answer me.
"Galley. G-A-L-L-E-Y."
A siren nearby blares then fades as I return to solving my crossword and you return to drawing me solve my crossword.
