The Living Room

This should be a fun one

Let me tell you Maina, 😅😅

I’m seated in a corner minding whatever is left of my business cause that’s been an imaginary line a lot lately. In comes a cutie. He is one of the waiters and his tag is printed Allan in caps. Memories of the only other Allan I was intimate with sends those kind of shivers down that you would just appreciate if they stayed there. I get my order down and I want a double ice coffee with soy.

Arguably, I may now be convinced to check into this premises a whole lot more than I used to before. Their cocktails are the bomb; but here’s a better reason to randomly show up and ask for personalized service from this fine specimen of male…

And then my gaze shifts to another specimen of male that just graces the living room. He’s removed his mask and he exposes a beautiful stub that is dotted with white hair. He’s approximately 6”2 and he has this confidence in his stride that commands your attention. More or less like I know I’m the definition of the older man you should be wary of and then some more…

Raaaawr… I think that’s what the cool cats of this century say.

I turn away then to share a moment with my date. He’s entertained my mini gawking moments and he casually reminds me why he is the one I’m with. Stance of a demigod coupled up with the smile and charm from the source of the Nile. Oh did I mention he’s my life-size, lifetime serving of chocolate?

I thought you should know.
