The annual teachers’ meeting was the only time that all the teachers got
together in one place at one time. It was a 3-hour meeting, from 7 to 10 p.m.
Lecturers talked on various subjects. Each talk was followed by a question and
answer period. It was an informal, pleasant evening.
The evening always began with a delicious dinner catered by a local
restaurant. This year’s host was a Middle Eastern restaurant. Teachers piled as
much as they wanted on their paper plates and found a seat outdoors or in the
auditorium. Most teachers really seemed to appreciate the food.
For Shane, this evening was his opportunity to check out the female
teachers. This year, a beauty walked into the auditorium about 10 minutes late.
She sat in the row in front of Shane, just two seats away. Shane couldn’t
believe it. She was not only the best-looking woman in the auditorium, but she
smiled at him before she sat down. She was tall and had long red hair. She was
wearing a sexy black cocktail dress.
Shane could not focus on the meeting anymore. He looked at the lecturers
less than he looked at the redhead. He was enveloped in her perfume. She took
notes right-handed. She ran her fingers through her hair. She crossed and
uncrossed her legs. Shane was going crazy. Plus, there was no ring on her left
hand.
The meeting ended. The dean thanked everyone for attending. Everybody
applauded the presenters. The redhead stood up. Shane stood up. She smiled at
him, and then walked out. Shane walked out. She went to the restroom. Shane
waited. When she came out, he walked up to her.
“Hi,” he smiled. “My name’s Shane. I was wondering if you have time for a
cup of coffee. I was hoping we could share some of our teaching
experiences.”
She smiled. “Why, thank you. That’s sweet of you. I appreciate your offer,
but I’ve got to get home. My husband is babysitting tonight, and I’m sure he’s
pretty tired. Maybe another time?” She smiled, and walked away. |
