Loop-de-Loop (part 2)

"So... You'll go for some fish & chips - then, to the British Museum?"

After classes, I wasted no time - in asking Mary Beth out on a 'date'.

I was pleasantly, and mildly shocked, to learn she had a secret crush

on me. That rare instance, when the Universe aligns two people. Nice!

We had a very grand evening... and surprisingly, she laughed at most

of my super corny accolades (jokes). Yes - this was a good beginning.

#

The next weekend, we toured the best art galleries in London.

Modern art... painting, sculpture... 'Nouveau Bohemian' as well.

It was fascinating, the way she interpreted various art works.

I of course, had my own impressions (many that I kept to myself).

But the important thing was that we were slowly forming a bond:

an understanding... of where, and who, we each were - as people.

#

The 3rd 'date' we had Chinese food, then she invited me to

go to her flat (apartment room). Of course, we made Love.

It was the most invigorating hour of my entire Life...

I imagined how those Gods of Old must have felt, then.

Also, as far as I could tell, my Stasis Lock back

in 2037 (the Time Dilator & Prof. Wygstaff), had

kept my Life Force back 'here' - in 2015. Oh, Joy!

Soon, we both slept, wrapped up in each other's arms.

#

Unknown to me... Things were soon to change.

And, drastically!
