Something Real

That's what she's looking for, she said.

Read Torah, I suggested.

You read Torah to me.

English or Hebrew?

Hebrew.

You don't speak Hebrew.

I don't need to, she answered. I just want to hear it. To hear you.

And we were working our way through Melachim, breaking idol altars, when it got quiet, and she laughed, and she looked at me, and I smiled and she looked soft and she said Are you going to come over here and give me our first kiss?

Now I blush like fire every time I look at her.
