A Contract Marriage
he says, handing me his business card, “you can text me your terms and I’ll be sure to add them if I agree with them. If not we can have a discussion pertaining to that”
I smile, “thank you” I say, taking the card from him, “but why can’t we sign the contract today” I say, afraid that he might change his mind. I’m sure he has excellent lawyers who can draft the contract in no time.
He smiles, “you’re afraid that I’ll change my mind, but I promise you that I’m a man of my word. So we’ll get married just like I’ve promised except you change your mind”
I shake my head, “I won’t, I’ll see you tomorrow then” I say, sticking out my hands. He nods, shaking my hands, “see you then”.
