Hide And Seek..by Michael

A Story by Michael Reisman

Barbara had a favorite childhood game called hide and seek. She remembered the boy which was her old first boyfriend when the two of them were just twelve and eleven years old. His name was Benny. Now at the age of thirty eight, she decided it was time to meet someone serious and develop a relationship. Barbara joined an Internet dating service to see if this was the right way to go. A match was made by this site and they met in person. Their first date was paid for by the company as it was dinner for two at a restaurant of their choosing. A nice Italian restaurant was chosen and it would be next Saturday evening at 7 P M.

A blind date set up by the dating service which thought that their profiles were a perfect match. He introduced himself and the name rang a bell from a very long time ago. Benny sat across from her as told him her name also. That same bell rang as he remembered Barbara from those childhood years also. One year later they were on their honeymoon together. He seemed to disappear from the hotel room they were staying at. Then she found him hiding under the covers in their bedroom as they both laughed out loud...Maybe romantic trails starts with a favorite childhood game, then leads to a dating service. The final destination is found under the covers in a bedroom of a hotel honeymoon suite...Case in point in a short love story about Barbara and Benny, where we start and end with a game of hide and seek...
