For The Taking
“Men line up for me gingerly,” I told my friend.
“Lucky you,” she remarked. “Hasn’t happened for me in months. Last one was a real flop.”
“Sorry to hear that,” I consoled, suddenly aware of my insensitivity. “When you’re ready, I can send one or two over to you.”
She was stunned, telling me how she lacked the courage to date again.
“What I have to offer...well, they’re good looking and appealing in other ways.”
Silence prevailed. Then she spoke. “Seriously?”
“Absolutely. I can deliver my gingerbread men to you, or you can pick them up at my place.”
