Each forthcoming moment for Alfredo saw his fragile structure

being discriminated by society, yet today brought forth an electric

state of mind, powerful enough to compensate the poor weather

and even poorer state of mind. Tonight Alfredo would bind the

barriers between himself and society; he was going on a romantic

date with a woman of human nature.

At 6:30pm, Alfredo roamed the manic, glamorised, urbanised

streets of New York City on his way to feast upon a Parisian cuisine

in his luxe, champagne coloured vehicle.

Alfredo?!

’ He knew the voice without knowing its owner; her voice

resonated with him, despite the fact they’d only just barely met? He

gazed, escaped gravity, embraced towards her, like a panicked

newborn infant towards it’s mother.

Bon jour belle…

’ Alfredo softly crooned into her ear, like a gentle

beast, softly approaching its prey. The elixir of her perfume lingered

around each cell of Alfredo’s nostrils.

He asked, even before taking a seat

at their table, was this action to eager? Or did it exude a vibe of

confidence and resilience?

‘S

ure!

’ She exclaimed, releasing an equally exuberant vibe.

Already from such a mere introduction, it could be predicted their personalities

were so equally comparable, and what could ever try to fight good with good?

This was a momentous realisation for Alfredo; it is not all of society that looks

down on the frog.

As each word was expressed; as each laugh emerged; as each smile was

exchanged; as each processor of drinks began to flourish; and as each forthcoming

tick of the clock passed, it was the only suppression of time; the nemesis of

the night

.

The doors of the kitchen emerged open, releasing a sheer scent of

the meal that was to be shared between this potentially forgoing

relationship. Although, in such a way, the residue of the scent

resonated with Alfredo too quickly, in an undesirable way.

The shadow of this Parisian waiter crept behind Alfredo, the

scent growing stronger. It was not until the waiter identified this

resonated scent, which sent Alfredo into a frozen, reluctant state

of mind.

‘Frogs legs for the lady.’
