Special Delivery
When I was younger, I was different, less inhibited, not so afraid of rejection. Let me give you an example. I was hungry one night and I went to the local pizza place, when I walked in the workers were in the back, so I waited at the counter for a moment until she walked out of the back and into my dreams. She was blonde haired, light blue eyes and absolutely breathtaking, but when she smiled, oh man, she had me.
She smiled and asked me what she could help me with, I was stumbling over my words, but I managed to get “can I get a small pizza with sausage?” She rang me up and said it would be about 10 minutes or so. I paid and said that I would be back.
I looked at her name tag and left. I went down the road to the grocery store and went in to get a soda. I saw a nice display of flowers and thought, why not? What do I really have to lose? I picked up a red rose and paid for my items and went back to the pizza shop.
When I walked in Kara was in the back again, I waited for her to come up front and when she did, I held up the rose, “you have an amazing smile, I hope this brings a smile to your face.”
A huge smile formed on her lips as she accepted the rose and said, “thank you, that's very sweet”’ a few moments went by and she said, “perfect timing!” As she retrieved my pizza from the oven and put it in a box.
I hesitated, but left before things became awkward, I really didn't know much about her, I don't know if she had a boyfriend, I just took the chance to bring a smile to her face.
A few days later, I wanted to see her again, I stopped by the grocery store and picked up another rose and walked in.
When I walked in, Kara was again in the back, I looked around and spotted the rose in a small vase sitting on the counter next to the register. When she appeared, she saw me and the rose and smiled, her whole face brightened. She took the flower and smelled it, and with a big smile said, “thank you so much, I've been having a tough time today, perfect timing.”
I ordered my pizza again, but this time I waited for it in the shop. After she put the pizza in the oven, we talked. I really could not get over her smile, it really did brighten her whole face.
She told me “sit down and I will bring your pizza right to you.” She disappeared for a few moments and then returned with the rose, in a cup of water and placed it on the table in front of me. She went back and took my pizza out of the oven and carried it to me, not in a box, but on a pan, she put a plate in front of me. I guess I am meant to eat it here, she will get no complaints from me.
She sat down across from me and we enjoyed each other's company as I bit into my pizza. I offered her a slice and she left the table to get another plate. She held a cup in front of me and asked, “sweet tea ok?” I nodded and she filled the cup and rejoined me.
I will just say, it took a while for me to finish my pizza, I'm glad these weren't busy times, as she had the time to chat. Each time I went in, it took longer. By the end of the week, all of the tables had a rose placed in the middle. Every time, she greeted me with a huge smile when she saw me. This went on for almost a month before she started to greet me with a hug. I don't know if it was the smell of pizza, or her perfume, but between the smiles and the aroma of her, I could not resist going in for a slice at my favorite spot.
She apologized to me and told me that she would be doing deliveries all night on Friday, so if I came in, she most likely wouldn't be here. I was kind of disappointed at first, but then I got another idea.
Before I left, I told her I was happy that she gets to smile more, it brightens the world. She came over to me as I was ready to walk out the door and gave me a kiss. It was gentle at first, but soon turned to a lot more passionate.
She broke the kiss for a moment, “thank you for making me smile, you came at the perfect time.” She kissed me again softly, as I walked out the door.
When Friday rolled around, I was already prepared. When I called my order in for a medium pizza, I asked if Kara could deliver it at 7:30pm. The girl on the phone, knew who I was and confirmed my order and said that she would put a different name on the ticket so Kara would be surprised, she also told me that...
