Was He Flirting With Me?

Hi, Everyone!

So, check this out, y’all: I think I may have an admirer.

Notice that I said that I think I have an admirer. I don’t want to jump to conclusions, nor do I want to read too much into it, but judging by this fella’s actions this afternoon, I could very well be this guy’s crush. All I know about this fella is that his name is Winston, and he works at the sandwich shop that I frequent after I leave work.

Here’s what happened: After I clocked out of work this afternoon, I headed over to the sandwich shop to get my usual—turkey bacon avocado with Swiss cheese, mayo, and honey mustard. Anyway, while in the process of making my sandwich, Brother Winston was also making small talk with me… and yes, I obliged. He simply asked me how my day was going, and I merely responded that I had “a productively great day.” He then smiles and says: “Well, it’ll get better tomorrow—wink-wink!”

I actually thought that was a funny albeit corny joke, and I laughed.

So then, after ringing up my order, the fella says, “You know, Miss, I know that I just met you, but I can tell that you’re a teacher. You look like you’ve got the patience of Job, which is the most important characteristic that a teacher must have. As a matter of fact, you must be a kindergarten teacher.”

My eyes lit up, y’all!

“Um, how did you know I was studying to be a kindergarten teacher?” I inquired.

Without a hesitation, Brother Winston says to me: “Well, for one thing, you’ve got a great big heart, which suggests that you have a great big love for children. Not only that, but you’ve got to be a big kid at heart yourself. And dare I say, you’ve got an adorable baby face.”

And right then and there, I could feel my cheeks getting full and red—and believe me when I tell you: I was not the least bit embarrassed. I was very flattered!

Y’all do know that I’m going back to the sandwich shop tomorrow, right? Hahahahaha!


Hugs & Kisses,
