Restaurant Dessert Menu

"Do we want dessert?" he says, his eyes slowly dancing along the table, past the finished entrees and glasses of water, soaked with condensation.

"I am full, but if you get something, we can definitely share." she replies, ever-coy.

"Well." he reaches for the menu.

His fingers touch the slick surface. O! How dangerous our world! He recoils in horror.

Minutes later, the antsy waitress, tired of her Sunday shift, returns.

"And, have you made a decision?" she asks. Somehow, she knows the answer to this question.

"No, thank you."
