Fidgety Fingers

Fidgety fingers twirl each jigsaw piece above the puzzle, awaiting release, willing her concentration to increase. A smile tugs at the corners of her lips, and as the occasional swear word slips: giggling, she places her hands on her hips. I chuckle, as she pretends to be mad: and I reciprocate, looking so sad, that she soon relents, whispering, "My bad." The puzzle is the last thing on my mind: to doubt her beauty, I'd have to be blind, for she's gorgeous, with a perfect behind. I realize just how lucky we are: like two kids caught raiding a cookie jar, in each other's eyes, the other's a star.
