Some folks mistakenly prefer the waterfront, but she knows that the second street up from the harbour is the best one.
She knows that the fog is just a little less thick. A little more magical, enveloping the streetlights.
The cobblestones are a little less eroded.
You can hear the waves lapping. But from a street away, they announce their arrival with a gentle rap on the door, not by ringing the bell.
Distance is beauty.
The wind is a little gentler on her exposed skin, when she smiles at him as he approaches.
“You looking for a date, sir?”
