The Dating Chronicles

Surprise!

It was a Saturday night and Gina was at home alone feeling very lonely when her phone rang.  The voice on the other end was deep and melodic, but he had the wrong number.  When Gina hung up the phone, she wondered if he’d call back, and a minute later, he did.  This time, she decided to help by asking him to repeat the number. 

One word led to another, and they ended up talking for over an hour.  When Gina hung up, she felt like she’d been on a mini-date.

When he called again the next night, her heart soared with excitement, as they shared information about themselves.  This time they talked for two hours.

When they decided to meet at a local restaurant the next day, Gina was beside herself with anticipation.  She had already envisioned him to be tall, dark, and handsome.  But when he walked into the restaurant, she was shocked to discover that though he was handsome, he was also white. 

Gina’s shock registered on her face when he came and sat down next to her.  It turned out that he guessed she was black but didn’t care, and eventually she didn’t either.  They were married seven months later.
