Andrew and Geneva: A Love Story

I hope everyone had a wonderful love-filled Valentine's Day!  And for those of you who, like me, spent the evening home alone doing your taxes while eating a frozen cheeseburger, I hope you got a lot of yummy candy on sale today.   Since Valentine's Day is in fact a holiday created by the greeting card industry, I have a special post-Valentine gift for you all -- a love story.

Meet Andrew.  Andrew may seem like a chauvinist pig, but he likely has a heart of gold.  He spends his days doing something manly like working construction or yelling at people.

Meet Geneva.  Geneva seems like a strong confidently woman, but she has a vulnerable insecure side.  She spends her days doing some job which is challenging, yet rewarding.  Her coworkers respect her, but her loser boss takes all the credit for her work.

Andrew and Geneva meet through some crazy random happenstance--he spills coffee on her in the elevator as she's on the way to an important meeting with her loser boss, but he refuses to pay her dry cleaning bill.  They are instantly irritated with each other but are secretly attracted because he's so handsome and she looks pretty while drenched in coffee.

Andrew and Geneva continue to be thrown together because G's loser boss brought A in on some manly business deal.  While constantly working late in the office, Geneva begins to see Andrew's heart of gold, and Andrew begins to see Geneva's softer vulnerable side.  They fall madly in love.

Tragedy strikes!  Andrew and Geneva's business deal crashes in scandal due to the loser boss.  Both of our heroes fall into financial ruin and blame each other for not anticipating the problem.  They break up, and Geneva takes a job across the country to pick up the pieces of her shattered heart and career.

Following weeks of moping on both sides, Andrew realizes that he still loves Geneva.  He rushes to her apartment, but sadly she has already said her tearful goodbyes to her faithful girlfriends and left for the airport.  Andrew now needs to know what flight she's taking, but said faithful girlfriends won't tell him.  He gives passionate speech about how Geneva makes him a better man.  Completely convinced that they have witnessed Everlasting Love, the teary-eyed faithful girlfriends give Andrew the flight information.  Andrew rushes to the airport, buys a very expensive one-way ticket to an exotic location, and rushes to Geneva's gate.  He catches her just before she boards the plane and pours his heart out.  It turns out that Geneva still loves Andrew, too.  She won't move although she is currently jobless.  They magically live happily ever!

THE END

I hope you enjoyed this heartfelt and truly unique story.  Come back tomorrow for whatever I feel like writing.
