Before leaving home, young Cabernet fed her dog. The effort of breeding and nurturing a Purebred puppy must have been difficult. Young Cabernet played the part of dutiful owner for several years before becoming bored. The dog lounged around, laid in her lap, and wanted to be cradled in her arms. By now, Cabs’ interests were in other things. She never wanted a pet, just as she never wanted to be someone’s pet. There were more morsels of chocolate in the bowl than kibble. Sooner or later, she’d be free of it, and it of her. Whoever came up with the idea that all women loved chocolate was ridiculous. It would have been kinder to write ALLERGIC on the box before sending it back, considering that it would come again next year, without a doubt. Instead, she threw it in the trash, along with the other boxes. She bypassed the chocolates in the dessert section. “Cabs,” said a younger man as he approached her. How had he managed to be invited to such a function? Begged someone, like he would soon beg her for information, no doubt. Still, she smiled at the man as his voice dropped low, rambling on about what he needed to know, justifying why he deserved to know such things. Picking up a piece of chocolate, she very carefully shoved it into his mouth, kissing her fingers free of any residue, before going on her way. |
