Some Nerve

GenXer Sharon 🙏🍀

   Annalise knows she’s in quite the spot when it comes to seeing Abe. She can’t give him a piece of her mind at her work place. Abe approaches the counter bar where Annalise is; “excuse me Miss!” Abe says; Annalise ignores him but knows she’s can’t for long. “Annalise; I know it’s you; if you don’t say Hello, I’ll tell everyone here that we held hands as kids and even had our own song.” Annalise turns around quite angrily and says; “ why are you here Abe ? What do you want me to do? “Don’t you dare try to embarrass me after all we’ve been through.” Abraham can’t believe he still gets to her after all the time that’s passed. He intends to use this to his advantage. “Annalise; it’s a pleasure to see you again; I’ll pick you up around eight tonight and we’ll talk then.” Pick her up? What is he insane? “You most certainly will do no such thing.” “I close at nine; and I’m heading out with my dear friend Loretta tonight.” “Loretta? You mean Luke’s wife?” Annalise is beyond surprised. “Abraham I have plans; we can not talk today; “well nine it is Annalise; I guess this is more like Burger King where you have it your way.” Annalise removes herself from behind the counter to get face to face with Abe; she was going to tell him to leave, but it was too late; Abe was already walking out the door; hope this didn’t bore you; come back tomorrow to see what’s in store.
