“Speaking of skedaddling,” she began, “I need to get back. Thanks for the sandwich. I’ll see you this evening.” She exited the booth, grabbed the sandwich from the table, and gave me a quick peck on the cheek. I wondered if that would be the last time we’d ever touch. Her scent lingered after she turned to leave, memories of our shower romp still fresh in my mind, and I almost kept my mouth shut.
“Hey, Alex,” I said to her back, “give Schmidt my regards when you get back upstairs.”
About the Author
Ben Muse is a lifetime Georgia native. He was born in Atlanta and now calls Acworth home. He resides there with his wife, children’s book author Angela Muse, and their two children, Tyler and Caitlin.
He can’t paint, sing, sculpt, or play a musical instrument, so he’s decided to write. His hobbies include golf (terrible), traveling (hates to fly), obstacle racing (ugh!) and vacuuming (excels here) and he writes whenever he can: mornings between answering phones, in carpool waiting to pick up kids, and late at night when no one’s a stirrin. When he writes, one question is always on his mind: Is this book a good investment of the reader’s time?
