Continues To Grow..by Michael
A Story by Michael Reisman
Felicia thought about those great times when she used to live
at home with her parents. It was those outdoors summer barbeques in the backyard
that she remembered the most. Her favorites were always cooked to perfection as
they were a cheeseburger and hot dogs. There was always a good mixture of adults
and children, where everybody was happy and had someone else to talk to. Felicia
was finally old enough to save enough money to buy her own home with a backyard.
One of the first things she purchased was an outdoor barbeque grill. Next would
naturally be the burgers and hot dogs. She had her very first event on an early
July weekend. Close friends were invited as the thirty eight year old felt like
a kid once again. There was one uninvited guest that showed up. He was just
walking past her house and smelled those burgers and hot dogs. A party crasher
you might say as he just walked right in and helped himself. She approached him
and asked what he was doing there. He introduced himself as Frankie and then
explained his story. It turned out that he also loved cheeseburgers and hot dogs
from a memory of living back home with his parents. They also had a backyard
with guests coming over for summer barbeques. He explained a first time
girlfriend he met at her parent's house named Felicia. A light bulb went off in
her mind and remembered Frankie from when they were seventeen and eighteen years
old. He now became an invited guest as they talked and caught up on old times. A
wedding was planned as the bride and groom enjoyed their cheeseburgers and hot
dogs. Maybe an uninvited guest becomes invited for a reason now apparent. Case
in point in a shot love story about Felicia and Frankie continues to
grow...
