My friend Tom and I were hanging out one night. We had a couple of beer in our system but we're nowhere near intoxicated. Tipsy was more like it. Yes I am a girl hanging out with and older man, sounds crazy right? But he's just like me. Young and adventurous. He was very much a gentleman. He portrays a tough physique but is actually very gentle.
After a few more rounds of alcohol, we began talking about serious stuff. He talked about his hardships in life, I talked about highschool life and friends. Yes we were talking about different stuff but we were actually hanging on the same level.
He talked often about his deceased sister and father whom he loves very much. It was heartwarming to see him talk about them with watery eyes. He looks very sincere. He told me the sweetest story I've ever heard:
"Tom's father was given a week to live. One day, Tom's father said the sweetest thing to his mother.
They were inside the room when suddenly, Tom's father pinched his wife's vagina. He said 'I want to be the first and last one to touch this.'
Two days after, his father passed away..."
There are things in life that we sometimes not take seriously. But this gestures, may it be funny or not, may mean a lot to someone.
The story was funny, yes I admit it. But I was in aw when i first heard it. Not because I was tipsy, but because it was really sweet.Ü
*The story was entirely factual as narrated by my friend Tom Sawyer.♥
