Chasing the Moon
“She was surprised to see his dog had allowed him outside. He carefully trod the steps while carrying two overflowing grocery bags.
“Hi,” she said. “Need some help?”
“If you’re offering.” He handed her one. It was full of canned goods and heavier than it looked.
“Want me to carry that for you?” asked Vom.
She decided letting a ravenous monster carry groceries was a bad idea and just soldiered on.
As they walked toward his apartment, she tried to think of something clever to say. Something witty.... Something, at the very least, memorable.
“Getting kind of cold outside, huh?”
Chuck, his back to her, kept walking. “Beg your pardon?”
“Outside,ze="3">” she said. “Cold.”
“Didn’t notice,” he replied.
They climbed the short flight of stairs to the second floor. She screwed up her courage and tried again.
“A bit late for grocery shopping, isn’t it?”
“I don’t pick my schedule,” he replied. “Have to take my opportunities when I get them.”
At the top of the stairs, she noticed his monster hound was missing from its post at his apartment door.MoreLess
