Dinner and Cookies

[ndrosen]

I had dinner with Cynthia; she showed up, we found a Seven Eleven where she got a cup of coffee, and then walked to Namaste Jalsa to pick up our takeout order, and back to the Patent Office. There was a little drama because the dinner didn’t include plastic utensils, and neither of us had brought silverware, but we checked the doors in three kitchenettes (on the fifth, fourth, and sixth floors), and found a couple or wrapped packets of plastic dinner utensils, so we were able to eat. I had mulligatawny soup, and then a spicy eggplant dish; she had bread and korma. Then I presented the chocolate chip cookies, one for each of us to eat then, and a baggie containing four for her to enjoy later.

She drove me home, and we hugged goodnight.

Lady, I am looking forward to more shared meals, more handholding, and more hugs. Thank you for the pleasure of your company. ❤️

I have read both the book from which you quoted, and most of what C.S. Lewis wrote for adults (which is not to deprecate the Narnia books). It seems a bit much (I hope that I will not offend you by saying this) to apply those words to a developing relationship between two mortals on this Earth; nonetheless, if things work out between us, I hope that we will make each other happier than we would be alone, or even with only cats. 😍
