the two suitors of Zoie Malone page 2 by ric gustafson.
He blew on his cold gloved hands as he gazed to the west. ' Boy, I hope it comes quickly' David thought as he stamped his feet. ' The bus usually comes around this time' was his thought as he blew into his gloves and stamped his feet again.
He grinned as he noticed the large white bus approach. It stopped and the large door opened.
" Good morning" David said to the driver as he took off his dark winter gloves and reached inside his pant pocket. He pulled out a rumpled dollar bill and a quarter. He smiled and put them in the slots.
The driver grinned, closed the door and then the bus started.
David slowly walked toward the back of the bus and then saw her. She was sitting in the same seat that she always did and she was writing in a journal or something.
He sat down in a seat opposite her and looked out the window.
She had long blonde hair and was wearing a long red winter coat.
She had been riding the bus for two months now and David did not have the courage to talk to her.
Peace and God's blessings. Love Ric.
