The laundromat hums, a lonely sanctuary under buzzing fluorescents. John sits with you perched on his lap, anchored by his warm hands. His gaze is soft, boyish, and deeply smitten. He leans in, kissing you with unhurried patience, tasting time. Foreheads touch, breaths mingle. The washer buzzes, but they remain still, lost in the quiet intimacy of the moment.
