After my heart had been smashed to bits, I went to the store
to buy some super glue to put it back together again. When I arrived at the
store, the sales clerk mentioned that there was no glue in stock. Then all the
power in the store shut off and a loud, weird noise took over.
As I stood in the dark store, dazed and confused, a large,
bright, yellow glow appeared from the outside of the store. Then out of the
light, Cupid appeared!
Stunned, I opened my mouth, but no words came out.
“Yes, I am Cupid,” he said. “I have come to fix your broken
heart. Would you like some chicken soup?”
“No thanks,” I answered.
“How about a hug? Or perhaps an airline ticket to Florida?”
Wow, I thought, both sound pretty good. “Could you give
me a ticket to Platform 9 ¾?”
With a whirl and a flash, I arrived on the train to
Hogwarts. However, all of a sudden, a chill came over me…like all the happiness
had left the Earth.
“I have a question,” I said.
“Yes,” said Cupid, smiling sweetly.
“Are you a Cherub or a Seraph?”
“Good question,” Cupid mumbled. “You know all Cupids are
Cherubims.”
“Yup, I thought so,” I responded. “You do not seem to be a
fallen Seraphim.”
“You mean like Lucifer?” Cupid asked.
“Yes!” I answered. “Though, like Lucifer, love, can throw
you into the depths of Hell itself.”
“Don’t get philosophical on me, young man!” The Cherub said…
…Cupid disappeared; the Dementor had taken over the train. I
could feel myself disappearing, my vision going black…
…I was shaken awake by someone offering me a bar of
chocolate.
“Are you okay?” The
beautiful person asked.
I guess I won’t be alone on Valentine’s Day after all.
A beautiful person AND a bar of chocolate. Life doesn't get any better than this...
