Micah nodded and swallowed the bread, took a drink, and looked at her. “Ok… so I want you to not think, not ponder. I don’t want you to give it a thought, these questions I’m gonna ask you. I’m gonna ask… you just answer. Immediately. Whatever answer pops in your head, ok?” He dusted off his fingers and leaned forward. “Just answer yes or no. Here we go.” and he waited for a moment and then said:

Shara had pulled her bowl of stew over and taken a bite while he was explaining. Food made from scratch always tasted better than replicated. It was probably psychosomatic but it was just a fact hard to ignore.

“Do you like beets?”

“Cooked, yes. Pickled, no.”

“Is swimming your favorite exercise?”

“Yup,” she said tearing off a piece of bread.

“Do you like ice cream?”

“Always.”

“Do you love me?”

“Probably.”

“Do you like the stew?”

“Best stew I’ve had in awhile. Needs a touch more salt though.”

“Do you want to drink till we cant see straight?”

Micah

“Most definitely,” Shara said, popping the bread in her mouth. She was aware of each and every answer and though she was aware there might have been a tiny bit of a game within it, she didn’t mind. She had spoken honestly. He deserved no less from her, even if it was about beets.

~Shara

Micah looked at her and just nodded slightly. “Pickled is king. Swimming is the second best cardio I can think of. Ice creams good, ‘cept for vanilla. I moved past probably a while back.” He took a small packet off the tray and tossed it in her lap. “Thought so. And ya didn’t answer my last question, so I’ll have to find another means of making you pass out.”

Micah

“I did too answer, but I think you’re just fixated on your one sneaky question that you’re not paying attention,” she said idly, though her eyes held a teasing glint. “I’ve been slightly tipsy before, but never drunk. Never in my life. Just couldn’t allow it,” she said digging back into the stew.

~Shara

Micah nodded and then said “Naw, not fixated. But I ain’t gonna lie… I needed to know if I was on my own in this. And if you wanna try drunk, we can. Won’t be hard with this stuff, thats for damn sure.” and he took a drink.
