So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

They recently put readable signs on the floor, so the greeter, normally overwhelmed by customers, was at a loss for something to do. I smiled at him and then followed the lines on the floor to hardware. As I made my way through drills I saw him again, standing there hopefully, and I deftly turned into an aisle of L-shaped brackets. What could I ask him, anyway? "Excuse me, sir, where are the things that turn the things in the thing?" I perused the L-shaped brackets and continued walking through the dowels. There he was again! Was he following me around? Hopeful, smiling, nearly the same age as me.... The appropriate French word popped into my head. "Pardon me, sir," I said in my best french accent, smiling brightly, "Where are the screwdrivers?" He showed me around the corner where there were several shelves of screwdrivers. "Do you know which kind you need?" he asked. I didn't know how to say "Phillips head" in French... I doubted it was called that. He waited patiently as I fished the screw out of my purse. "Ah," he said, studying it carefully. He selected a beautiful screwdriver with a comfortable handle and a magnetic tip. I thanked him in a way that signified that the conversation was over and he moved off. I put the screwdriver back, as it cost ten euros, and tried out a number of other Phillips head screwdrivers, waiting for him to leave for good so that I could pick the cheapest one. He came up uncertainly on my right-hand side before stopping mid-stride and going back. He came up on my left hand side, hesitated, took a step back, a step forward, turned his back, turned around, and then turned his back again. I pretended to be oblivious of him as I analyzed the screwdrivers with all of my attention. What did he want to do, tell me more about screwdrivers? He was acting like he was about to ask me out for coffee. Would I say yes? Without Sharkboy I had no good reason not to say yes.... though some part of me doubted that my true love worked as a greeter in a french department store hardware department..... I kept my attention firmly on the screwdrivers and at last he gave up, melting back towards plumbing. Ah well, another possible life, quantum-mechanicked out of existence. 5 Comments. That wasn't quantum mechanics, that was you being coy. » middaymoon on 2012-08-09 05:20:57 owh... i was once asked for my phone number when i was working as a waitress in a restaurant. owh... like hell i give him even though he is cute. RYC: the true answer to ur question left in my comment box is my entry title. shocking right? the 'i' in my entry is not referring to me but the querents. some of these guys i did the reading for had proposed to me and now i don't feel beautiful anymore ... i feel more of a desperate act of themselves to be normal. tarots is interesting. would u like me to do a reading for u? =) » renaye on 2012-08-09 08:14:28 AREN'T I A GOOD REASON NOT TO SAY YES I mean I may be sorta homeless and without a job and too proud of live on my knees rather than die on my feet but I gots love for you in any event, lol@ten euro screwdriver. » undisputed on 2012-08-09 08:29:01 Somehow I missed the post where you said you broke up with Sharkboy. :| In an alternate timeline, another you turned to another him and looked him in the eye, and the other him asked if you would like to get coffee and the other you said sure, why not. The other you exchanged phone numbers with the other him and agreed to meet at a cafe he knew. After a cup of coffee each and a few bites of pastry, the other you decided it had been nice, but not nice enough to go out again, said goodbye, and left. Nothing much was lost. » randomjunk on 2012-08-10 05:07:51 in an alternate alternate timeline, you turned to another him and looked him in the eye and headbutter him then he died. and yeah, the east coast is dreary. I WANT TO GO TO pARIS. Are people smelly? » undisputed on 2012-08-11 08:33:56
