He Will Be Mine...Not!
I have finally laid eyes on the most gorgeous couch I've ever seen...
As Wayne Campbell would mutter in the flick Wayne's world, I just had to say to myself that "It will be mine. Oh yes, it will be mine..."
As I looked at the furniture shop display, it was like a glossy page ripped out of House Beautiful. It was perfect! My heart beat almost painfully in my chest as I inched closer.
I bent over to turn over the tag attached to check how much it would cost me to own my dream couch. My heart sank when instead of seeing the price, it read SOLD. I've already imagined how it would look against my living room's off-white wall, how the pillows would look just casually tossed on it...
Come to think of it, this is like the guys I meet and fall for. Beautiful creatures that would spice up your life but they would never really belong to you. Women often complain that the good ones are either taken, married or gay. Maybe we just have the psychological tendency to want things that are unattainable. Do we lose interest for things that are readily available?
It would probably be utter madness to lose my grip on reason. But reason tells me not to let go for without him, things are bound to get drabby.
