Lunch Date


Lost in thought she didn’t notice the waiter come up to the table.

“Will there be anything else?”  The young man asked.

Carla shifted her attention away from the busy street.  The noise of other dinners seated at the outdoor café washed over her.

“No, thank you.  I’m good.”  She said, waving him away.

She looked down at her empty plate not remembering eating.  Ben should have been here by now, she thought.  It wasn’t that far from his office and she would have to go back to work soon.

“Sorry, I’m late.”  Ben said sitting down next to her.
