In The Last Car..by Michael

9 Years Ago


Thirty four year old Pam just moved to a new city. She saw a T V commercial about an amusement park not too far from her which was about to open for the summer. The roller coaster was featured and it brought back some old favorite times from her younger years. A ride she used to love. That opening weekend Pam drove to the amusement park to relive those good old times. She patiently waited on line and was lucky enough to get the last available seat in the last car. Thirty five year old Perry was who sat next to her. He had just moved to a new city and saw a T V commercial about the same park. A favorite ride of his from his younger years. They recognized each other as former boyfriend and girlfriend when both were in their young twenties. The rest of the day was spent together as an old flame was rekindled. Only living about ten miles away from each other was a big advantage for them. Their dating began once again as the frequency increased. Love at second sight, to coin a new phrase. Pam and Perry got married two years later. They often go back to an amusement park and get strapped in during the summer on a roller coaster in the last car.....Maybe a T V commercial triggers an urge to go there. Waiting on line has paid off as a former couple has now been strapped in together for a lifetime. Case in point in a short love story about Pam and Perry, in the last car.....
