"I'm leaving Randi" Abby threw her bag over her s houlder
Behind her Luka cleared his throat
"WE'RE leaving Randi " she chuckled, reaching behind her for Luka's hand."Happy Thanksgiving"
*******************************
Life Is Sweet
It's a pity
it's a crying shame
who pulled you down again?
How painful it must be
to bruise so easily
inside
*******************************
"I'm surprised everytime I get a chance to get out of this place" Abby commented,"Like it's too good to be true"
Luka nodded as they walked to Doc's
"Luka" Abby stopped and grabbed his wrist."That line.."
People were sitting in their cars, sitting on the side of the street, on the front steps of Doc's waiting to get a table
"Who would have thought" Luka chuckled,"People actually waiting to get in there and eat that food, volunteerily."
They turned to each other and laughed
*********************************
Well, they told you life was hard
misery from the start
it's dull, it's slow, it's painful
*********************************
"The man's funny!" Luka proclaimed,"Come on!"
Abby shook her head as they got off the El and started walking towards their apartment."He's a sexist jerk is what he is"
He shrugged
"You're just going to give up like that?" Abby stoppped smiling smugly
Luka nodded, "Go on up,I'm going to run to the store"
"Right now?"
Luka nodded,"I'll be back in a little while" wearing a huge grin, Luka took off back towards the El
*********************************
But I tell you life is sweet
inspite of the misery
there's so much more
be grateful
well, whom do you believe?
who will you listen to
who will it be?
because it's high time you decide
in your own mind
**********************************
Abby stood by the window watching for Luka
His keys rattled in the door
"Luka?"
"I've got a surprise" he called,"Go wait in the bedroom"
"We're awfully bossy tonight,aren't we?" Abby raised an eyebrow coyly
"A-B-B-Y!!"
"I'm going I'm going"
**************************************
I've tried to comfort you
I've tried to tell you to be patient
They are blind and they can't see
fortune gonna come one day
all gonna fade away
***************************************
He looked around suspicously as he pulled things out of his paper bags
"Luka?" he called
"Not yet"
"When?" Abby studied the mosquito in the corner of the room
"I'll let you know" he called back."get the mosiquito with my shoe"
"How'd you...??" Abby stuttered
From the kitchen Luka let out a loud laugh
****************************************
For they told you life was hard
misery from the start
it's dull, it's slow, it's painful
***************************************
"Luka?" Abby called
He looked around the room one last time at the sloppily tacked up white christmas lights, the table clothe he had thrown over the coffee table, the cushions on the floor.Luka nodded,"Close your eyes" he turned off the light the room twinkling.
"Are you going to help me?"
"OOps" he chuckled
Abby stood in the doorway, her eyes squinted shut."luka?"
"Coming" he pulled the bottle of sparkling cider out of the freezer and put it on the coffee table with the cartons of Chinese food. He took long strides to her side."Ready?"
Abby sighed
"I'm going to take that as a yes" Luka replied, slipping her arm through his
**************************************
But I tell you life is sweet
inspite of the misery
there's so much more
**************************************
"You bought Chinese!" Abby cried,perched on a cushion
Luka nodded
"It's beautiful" she looked around the living room in awe
"They were out of candles" Luka said sheepishly,sinking down next to her,chopsticks in hand
"Cranberry cider?" she raised an eyebrow
Luka nodded,"They were out of regular.."
"I'm just waiting for the flowers" Abby teased,"You really went all out, I mean wow.."
"It's Thanksgiving" Luka reached behind the couch for the dried roses he had found
Abby's eyes widened."Anything else I should know about?"
He stabbed at a shrimp with his chopsticks and held it in front of her parted lips."No, I think that's it"
"You successfully surprised me" Abby replied before eating and smiling
Luka smiled,"I figured we'd start our own Thanksgiving tradition"
*************************************
Life is oh so very short
life is sweet
and life is oh so very short
life is sweet
Behind her Luka cleared his throat
"WE'RE leaving Randi " she chuckled, reaching behind her for Luka's hand."Happy Thanksgiving"
