Dancing with Veronica 

     Sometimes things just seem to happen all by themselves. Rinny didn't dance. He 

never learned how to dance or even played at dancing when he was young. He was 

not shy and he was very sociable. It was just that every time the subject of dancing 

came around, he would disappear into the background, withdraw into places he felt 

more comfortable.

     "Would you like to dance?", just came out as she smiled up at him. It was as if

it was just the right thing to do at the time. She said "sure", and after a short walk 

across the dance floor and trying to step around with the music they smiled at some 

of the other couples and Veronica said "I'm thirsty". "We'll dance over to the bar and 

then we can go outside and dance in the snow", offered Rinny. The two of them burst 

out laughing and it would be their moment for years to come.
