Reward



A boring trip to run errands - that's what it was. She dragged her feet along, tucking her smartphone carefully into her denim pocket when she caught his eye. A look lock that made her freeze in her tracks for a flash of a second. "The evening is going to get transformed after all" She thought to herself. The hopeless romantic that she is, She secretly hoped to, and found ways to fall in love. She had a winning streak. She was addicted to the dopamine rise and had to have it at every opportunity!

Just as she broke out of the trance of being held in intense eye contact, she realized he was staring at her, askance. A slight disapproval? Suspicion? She could neither guess nor give up. His saucer like eyes charmed her a little too much. It was love at first sight and she was determined to find a way into his heart!
The charmer continued to pout..but the eye contact intensified. Out of the blue, her spontaneity found it's way into her playful mind. She winked at him and flashed the brightest smile she could manage...
4, 3, 2, 1....She counted while his bright peepers shone a tad brighter and the corners of his mouth hugged the side of his face. That was a smile that could materialize rainbows on a dull sky.
"Yes!" She hissed under her breath. A day transformed as the baby boy squealed and waved at her clinging to his father's shoulder.

Inspired by true events.
