Great Match!




On their first night out together, she felt they were a great match.
Picture-prompt photo by Bert Stern
She asked, “Who do you love more- me or cigarettes?”

His answer- “Cigarettes” took her down the memory-lane.
                                                                

That’s the same answer her ex-husband had given! 

He had died of lung-cancer some days ago and she had inherited his wealth.

She laughed.

Angels can fly because they take themselves so lightly.

G.K. Chesterton

Note- Cigarette Smoking is injurious to health.

    Yikes. Losing someone to lung cancer could make her laugh? She's harsh!
