He Believed her (a short story)

With conviction he had picked up the phone and dialed her number.

Now that the agreed hour was upon them he began to feel nervous.
Was he sufficiently prepared?
What if she wanted something to drink that he didn't have?

The doorbell rang and a little later 
the unmistakeable sound of ladies' heels on linoleum could be heard.

Long legs, blond hair, a dress just a tad too short and designer sunglasses 
on her artificially tanned gorgeous head.

Which displayed a radiant smile.

This lady could easily be turning the tables on Wheel of Fortune!

She introduced herself to him, didn't want anything to drink 
and told him that she could make anything happen for him.

He believed her.
