THE EYE OPENER

While the woman tied up the row boat with an expertly women hemp rope, the man could only stare ahead, dumbstruck. As they walked into the house she said casually, “It’s not much, but I call it home. Sit down please, would you like to have a drink?”.”No, thank you” he said, still dazed. “Can’t take any more coconut juice”…..”Its not coconut juice”, the woman said. “I have a still”, “How about a pinacolada?”

Trying to hide his continued amazement, the man accepted and they sat down on her couch to talk. After they had exchanged their stories, the woman announced, “I am going to slip into something comfortable, would you like to take a shower and shave, there is a razor upstairs in the cabinet in the bathroom. No longer questioning anything, the man went into the bathroom. There in the cabinet was a razor made from a bone handle. Two shells honed to a hollow ground edge were fastened onto its end inside of a swivel mechanism. “This woman is amazing”, he mused.”What next”. 

 When he returned, she greeted him wearing nothing but vines strategically positioned and smelled faintly of perfume. She beckoned for him to sit down next to her. “Tell me, she began suggestively, slithering closer to him. “We have been out for a very long time, we have been lonely. There is something am sure you really feel like doing right now. Something you have been longing for all this months. You know”, she stared in his eyes.

He could not believe what he was seeing, “You mean?” he replied…”I can check my email from here?”
