“Okay, you said you wanted burgers and I have the perfect place in mind.”
“Lead the way, good sir.”
He takes my hand, leading me outside, where he flags down a cab. Ten minutes later, I’m in heaven and can’t stop the moan that leaves my lips.

He shoves the last of his burger into his mouth and digs out his wallet, paying for both our meals.
“Let’s go. I want to get there before it gets busy.”
A short cab ride later, we’re at the Snug Harbor Cultural Center and Botanical Garden.
