"You gotta lot a tattoos for a girl," he drawls.
His eyes play hopscotch with my breasts.

Handing his doubleshot americano over.
"How many tattoos should a girl have?"

He shrugs, sliding a sleeve over his coffee.
"Don't get me wrong. I like a girl with a lot of tattoos."

"Me too," I tell him, beginning my next drink.
Out of the corner of my eye I see him lingering, watching me work.

When I turn back, he's gone.
On the counter a paper with his name and number on it.

Deftly, I drop it in the trash.
Moving on.
