The Clock Winked........
slowly, slowly, oh, so slowly. Why did time have the habit of slowing down when all she wanted it to do was hurry up?
'C'mon' she whispered under her breath...egging time on.
Knees jiggling, toes tapping, fingers fidgeting.
She watched the clock, her eyes watering - slipping in and out of focus. Her mind awash with the excitement of what was to come. The possibilities. The expectations. Scenarios all playing like a film in her imagination.
Her heart pounded loudly in her ears. She was nervous, exhilarated. How she longed to be free from the confines of these walls, to escape from the stifling heat of the room, to be where she was desperately eager to be....at the rendezvous...with her heart in her hand.
