Barflies and Bombshells

In the waning hours of a short-term romance; Waiting. Smiling. Hoping for a last second kiss before the bombshell drops.

May it never drop, if not from this barfly, then some other. Cheers

Why is the bombshell gonna drop? Is she drinking too heavily?

It will drop because he expects it to drop.

It will drop because she is a smothering psychopath.

Even a black widow is great fun for awhile.

A second kiss? Not one last roll in the hay? You get the -9- points because you didn't ask for a -69- before the bombshell drops her drawers.

Even with the title, this works both ways. Ugh! I'm feeling girlish this morning.
