The Signboard
Photo prompt © Kent Bonham
“I am not sure but I think Serafino is a vampire name.”
“How could you be so mean? I see you are already jealous of
me.”
“You are getting it wrong; I would be the happiest person if
he proposes to you.”
“Then why…”
“His name, it gives me a strange feeling…”
“Just shut up and don’t spoil this evening.”
Serafino came; he was an exceedingly handsome person. As they
entered, he looked at the signboard hanging above the entrance and turned pale.
“Is that garlic?” he asked in a choked voice.
Her friend looked at her with worried eyes.
