Eve was a hat-check girl and Adam was a zoologist.
One night, Adam had a thirst. He stopped at a club. There he met Eve. She smiled and took his coat. Later she swiped from his coat pocket a pair of snakeskin gloves.
On the dance floor a faulty disco ball nearly landed on Adam’s head. Time to go home.
That’s when he realized he’d been robbed; it had to be Eve.
“Why did you rob me?” asked Adam, gazing askance at Eve’s generous cleavage and then into her prismatic eyes.
“Temptation.”
“Sweet Jesus!” exclaimed Adam.
“I’m off at midnight.”
“Spiff.”
My favourite detail is the zoologist thing.
Great story, Prospero. You never fail to entertain. The mark of a good writer.
…………….and the rest is History
Enjoyable.
very entertaining Adam and Eve tale!
This is a really clever, well written tale.
Lovely take on the perennial story, though in an era when no one wears hats anymore, the snakeskin gloves will have to do.
Yes…love it!
Artfully done!
