| Herbert never
thought he'd be talking to a woman like Sharon. He was starting to perspire.
"So. How come you never come around my cubicle, Herb?" she said with genuine concern. Herbert blushed as he said, "I didn't think a woman like you..." "Like what?" she said. Herbert's blushing deepened. "Well, you know, so attractive." "Herb, you're sweet to say that..." The conversation was abruptly cut off as Mike Perkins butted in and put his arm around Sharon tightly. "Hey gorgeous! Your drink is getting low. We can't have that, can we?" Perkins was Mr. Popular at the office. Everyone expected him to become a partner in the firm within a year or so. Herbert hated him. "Hey, Herby-boy! Making the big move on Sharon? I'm proud of you! You might want to look into buying a new tie though, my friend. Did your mother buy that for you for high school graduation?" Sharon couldn't help laughing. The tie was ridiculously out-of-date. Herbert seethed beneath the fake chuckling he was forcing out. The worst part about Mike's jab was that his mother really had bought the tie. It wasn't for graduation since she'd died that year, but she had bought it for him. "Mike, take it easy on him, will you?" Sharon said through her laughter. |

| Like a
clock Second hand Sweeping fast Humming low Like a Train City-bound Distant light Whistle blow Thoughts of you Only you Penetrate To my soul |
