Isolde admired the twinkle in Malachai's eyes as he laughed. She suspected laughter was not an action he practiced much.<br/><br/>"Well, it was a thought." she couldn't quite supress the grin that tickled the corners of her mouth.<br/><br/>She stayed through the day until late afternoon.<br/><br/>"Malachai, I hate to bring it up but I do work and if I don't fill  my orders I will lose business. Duty calls. Will you see me home?"<br/>~~~~~~<br/><br/>The ride back to Flowers for You! was uneventful. The couple chatted, trying to pack a life time of knowing into a brief journey across Boston.<br/><br/>"I like chocolate, iced tea and rainy mornings. " Isolde said in response to his questions. "I love taking cruises and I especially love Italy and Greece. Hmmmm, when I was a kid, I was always called Carrot Top. I hated it. People tend to not make that connection any more."<br/><br/>"What about you, Malachai? Tell me what you like." she inquired.
