A picturesque beauty caught Tom's eye. He never saw such elegance. Tom followed the car down Clubhouse Drive. They passed the pool and the 18th Green.

In the parking lot he proposed, "Buy you a drink?"

"Thanks for the offer, but I'm waiting for my man," Tom was told as the driver stepped out of the Porsche.

That's when Tom was hit right between the eyes, kind of like with a two-by-four, or a baseball bat. The her he thought he saw was a him? Tom hightailed out of there on two wheels!

Things aren't always what they seem, are they?

Author Notes
A Mans Dream, by MK Flood, selected to complement my story.

So, thanks MKFlood, for the use of your picture. It goes so nicely with my story.

Mans is not a nit. MK Flood titled the picture that way, so I did not correct it to Man's.
