Boom! Klack! The lightning struck like a fury. The winds were raging about as though alive and I was scared I might be lifted off the ground. Another flash of lightning and the winds calmed in an instant. There, in the midst of the soft drizzle, I found him. Standing there in the dark like nothing happened. Like the street lamp above his head wasn't still flickering with the rolling thunder.

"What is it, my love?" He asked looking over at me with a bashful smile.

"Dinner is ready. Come, let's get out of the rain." I say as I touch his upper arm.

"One moment, love. I believe you have something behind your ear." He laughs, tucking a strand of hair behind my ear. Leaning down, he whispers: "It was a kiss."
