Yesterday I was helping out with a charity project.
I sniffed a perfume one of the men was wearing and it brought me back to one of my hookups.
And that's me.
Scents bring me back to an impactful moment in life. I had a friends with benefits when I initially moved back from the capital city. He wore the exact same perfume. He wasn't particularly good in the sheets but he did hold me when I needed someone to cry. He was a short stout macho brown man and I liked that. He'd sit through my petty complaints, sometimes even for hours and that made a mark in my memory.
I would bump into him many times after we had called it quits. We'd only ever exchange a nodding cheeky grin. Not even a greeting.
He is married now. Yes, to a woman.
