A Treasure Found at Home

at the celebration friday night.

i’m on the dance floor and a friend approaches to hug me. i put my nose near her neck and think how orangy she smells.

we pull apart and she says to me, “you smell like oranges!”

i’m confused, “no, i don’t. i thought you smelled like oranges.”

we both glance to my right her left and see a man peeling an orange at our elbows! he must have broken the skin just as we hugged.
