He sat with a glass of red wine. He enjoyed the moment, listening to rhythmic southern music. He knew it was worth waiting for the aromas and flavours of the wine to develop. He looked around him. His eyes stopped. She was sitting with her back to him. He imagined what she might look like. She slowly turned around and their eyes met for a moment. He smiled at her and her eyes returned the smile. He slowly put the wine down and walked over to where she was sitting. Would it be possible for them to have experienced a whole life at one dance? He felt that way. She looked at him and stood up. He took her hand. She didn’t protest. He felt there was no need to hurry, but he wasn’t going to let her get away. If two people can dance together, they can live together. Life can be a tango or a quiet, loving waltz.
