Just Kid-ding
May 2, 2006
The first time our eyes met, I felt a sudden connection. It’s undeniable. It’s palpable. He smiled at me and that’s all the encouragement I needed. I went to him & we just stared at each other. He didn’t say much. We both shared a comfortable silence. When he did talk he reminds me a bit of Sam Milby when he says “Ayoko”. He says pronounces it like “ Aiko” which I found so cute. The more we talked we found out that we shared many things in common. We both loved the sea, boats, our respective families, chocolate chip cookies and holding hands. He held my hand & his touch said it all. I felt a different kind of joy with him. It seems that he brought out the good in me. We just spent the night strolling around the beach & mingling with other people. He never let go of my hand til’ the moment we bade goodnight. I was so intoxicated by our connection ( or by the tequila I consumed…whatever) that I even invited him to sleep with me on the tent. To my shame however, he refused. Despite the rejection, I still had a peaceful slumber …laid on the soft sand…beneath the starry sky…with the crash of the waves lulling me to sleep and the memory his smile. He’s name is Koojee by the way & he’s the 4 year old son of my officemate.
I just love kids. Their innocence reminds me every once in a while that there is still a lot of goodness left in this world. That there is still hope for us mankind. The children not only brings out the mother (or nanny!?) in me but also the child in me. Not that it needs bringing out.. . it is in fact very evident. That’s why I guess a kid immediately warms up to me. They see a playmate or a kindred spirit in me. I do hope someday God will bless me with a kid (or kids) of my own and hopefully with a father in the package.Mmmm…Makes me think of all the sperm i’ve swallowed…what a waste! ROTFL
