It Wasn't Love at First Sight!

——————————————


There was only one room left that I hadn’t seen yet but that was about to change. She motioned me to follow as she traveled from the kitchen to the master bedroom. This was really the only room I was interested in and I was hoping the view I get will make the day worth while.

We walked on the creaky floor, spotted with carpet burns from either cigarettes or some other rolled dried leaf. Entering the bedroom I saw imitation Champagne bottles on the dresser and night stand. They look like they were from the Dollar store selection. Since there was drinking going on in this room, I was really hoping the dark stains on the bed sheet was some type of chocolate sauce.

The real estate saleswoman turned and asked what I thought. I told her that it wasn’t love at first sight, and not even second or third sight. Little did she know that this was the perfect property for what I have in mind. The view from the window sold it. Everything else could be remodeled or torn down and started new.

She hung her head slightly as if defeated. This property had been on the market way too long. Evidently no one else could see the possibilities, they only saw what was. I put a low offer on the property and it was accepted before I was able to drive away. I smile knowing in six months this beach front property will be the envy of this town.
