As she passed by I didn’t take much notice, dozens of women had walked past as I stood on that corner waiting.
However, something was different on my next breath; the scent of this girl took me to a different place. I had been there before; it’s a place without bias where my thoughts are not limited to the superficial.
I looked back as she walked away, all I could see was a brown head of hair bobbing through the crowd. Why did I dismiss her at first glance, was she not attractive, maybe too short? I found myself intrigued and wanted a second look as I was sure to be attracted to her now.
Dazed off in space I’m shaken back to reality as I hear a friend yell my name. I look at him and say “dude, it happened again, that perfume!” “Oh boy” he responds with a sarcastic grin.
I proceed to tell him how if I see this girl again, I am sure I would talk to her. That she could very well be the girl for me. He laughs and says “Mitch, you always do this, you catch a whiff of that perfume and all of a sudden you have to meet this girl. Just find a freaking girlfriend, figure out what the perfume is and buy the damn stuff for her!”
As we head into the restaurant I look at him, smirk and respond, “yeah, I know man.” Funny thing is, I still have no idea what it’s called.
