I was in the library looking for something to read. Spotting a book I fancied, I took hold of it, but wouldn’t move. I pulled, it pulled back! I heaved. It heaved. Suddenly it stopped resisting and I flew backward, landing the floor.
I peered under the bottom shelf and spotted a pretty pair of ankles. I clambered to my feet, straightened my glasses and peeped through the gap on the shelf. Looking back at me were the sweetest blue eyes I’d ever seen. ‘Hello, I’m Paige’ said a cute little voice.
We agreed to share the book and so started a new chapter in our lives.
Thanks to Rochelle for hosting and CEAyr for the photo.
Prod the frog to join in the fun!
Love your story.
I’m pleased, thanks Sadje
You’re welcome 😉
Oh Keith,
This story (and the frog) are both adorable. I can’t help thinking of the old Hollies song “Bus Stop” but instead of sharing an umbrella these two are sharing a book. Love it.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Thanks for reminding me of that great song! I see it’s Froggies turn for the umbrella over at your place this week!
How sweet. Never realized you were such a romantic.
I was just pretending Denise!

Me? Actually I was a little outside my comfort zone when writing this! Cheers Susan
Love it! Reminds me of a very cute young gentleman that I met at the library. We dated for a long time (a few months) back then. 🙂 <3
How lovely! So it really can happen.
Awww! That sounds like the start of a beautiful friendship.
Absolutely! Thanks Mimi.
Aww sweet. Great name choice.

It might be your lucky day!
What a cute story. Well done.
Thanks for dropping by Tessa
You are welcome!
Who needs a book, when you have Paige? May be Paige will read the book to you, if you are nice!
… she’s the next Paige in his book! Thanks Abhijit
Lovely and true. the library is full of romance and adventure – lucky he wasn’t in the horror section.
Good point! Fortunately he was in the most appropriate aisle! Cheers James
My kind of story for sure!
I’m really pleased, thank you Oneta.
This one made me smile. There’s nothing better than a beautiful woman with a book.
… especially between the covers! Delighted you enjoyed it
An enjoyable and sweet story.
Thanks so much.
Well, the mystery was solved in a most romantic way. I loved this story, Keith. I also love the bookworm frog. He seems to have brought some romance flies with him for a snack. 🙂 — Suzanne
Thanks so much for you generous words Suzanne, much appreciated.
A lovely tale of a chance meeting. I thoroughly enjoyed.

Indeed. Thanks so much Isadora.
Just wonderful! A quirky encounter that led to an astonishing future of contentment! This is one fall which would forever be etched in the mind of the ‘fallen!’
I couldn’t put it better myself! Thanks so much.
Ah sweet!
Thanks so much Sandra.
Sounds like a great tug-o-war excitement to start a new chapter
Hopefully they’ll pull the same way in future!
What a great way to meet your soulmate. Over a tug of war on your favourite book. Now that’s common interest.
Indeed it is! Thanks Fatima.
Aw, Keith! Your sweeter side is showing 🙂 Great story.
I let it peep out now and again! Thanks Linda
