the two suitors of Zoie Malone page 2 by ric gustafson
He blew on his gloved hands as he gazed to the west. ' Boy, I hope it comes quickly" David thought as he stamped his feet. He stamped his feet to try and keep them warm. He grinned as he noticed the large white bus approach. It stopped and the large door opened.
" Good morning" David said to the driver. 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 slot.
The driver grinned, closed the door and then the bus lurched forward.
As he slowly walked toward the rear of the bus, he saw her. She was sitting in the same seat and was writing in a journal or something like that.
He sat down in a seat opposite her chair and looked out the window.
She had long blonde hair and was wearing a red winter coat.
Even though she had been riding the bus for a while, David did not have the courage to talk to her.
Peace and God's blessings. Love Ric
