Medicine of Magic

“I think I do, I said slowly. Just then I realised that the waiter had arrived with our lunches, there were only two plates in front of Robin and me, and that June was no longer with us.

“Where’d June go?”

“She had to get back and told me to lunch with you in her place, if that’s not too shocking to you.”

“Robin, it isn’t, and I’m already liking you a lot.”

“And.if I don’t miss my guess, you want to know what’s it like to make love to a person like me?”

“Oh.hell! Yes, damn it. And what you mentioned about lesbian.attraction?”

“Well, I kind of like your looks.but. she grinned in a way that completely won me over, .we don’t really know each other well enough.yet.do we? Her face looked very elfin at that moment. My thoughts were not on Jane at all. I’ll tell you all.later.”

“Uh, Robin, would you care to go out with me this evening? Dinner.then however you would like the evening to go after that?”

“Yes. Let’s not be too formal.we may find some interesting places. The way she said interesting.and I could think of Robin as nothing else but a girl.indicated to me that this might be a rough evening.

“Uhm.come armed, you mean?”

“No, I would not advise that. Just be careful with your cash and your cards. Don’t flash anything too widely.”

“Gotcha. I try never to do that, I assure you. It does sound.interesting.”

I met Robin at her apartment house door.she had come down rather than my going up to her place.and we took a taxi to a place I knew for dinner. At her advice I did not order a large meal, jest a very good one with one bottle of a good wine.

“I was a bit surprised that you asked me not to come to your door, Robin, I remarked as I settled the bill.

“If at all, that would be for later, Mick. It was better at that moment for me to come down to you than for you.”
