Meet Cute

Mo was late for a meeting with his boss, Congressman Denard Warrick. The co-chair of the Black Caucus, Congressman Warrick was not the type to disappoint. Mo exited the subway as quickly as possible, taking the stairs three at a time. Just one more shortcut.

Mo collided with the sexy, voluptuous blonde right as he turned the corner. His folder spilled onto the concrete asphalt, and he scrambled to pick them up.

"Mo?" the blonde asked. Mo looked up at her, recognizing her as that girl he used to see at the church conferences, Presley.

"Presley? Wow, you look great!" Mo said, leaning in to hug her. "What are you doing here?"

"Just on the way to a meeting at the capitol," Presley gushed. "What are you doing here?"

"I work for Congressman Warrick," Mo said proudly. "You?"

"Oh. I'm Congresswoman Putnam," she responded, her enthusiasm waning rapidly as they both realized they were on polar opposites of the political spectrum.
