The Guava Trick – Chimera 66

The Guava Trick

Chance Garza slurped her guava juice. The attractive intern moaned over-dramatically, “Mmmm! If guava sat on shit, I’d eat it.”

The gathered biologists chuckled in the Panamanian heat.

Garrett sighed. She’d slept with every male scientist, except Garrett.

Chance waved goodnight.

Garrett slumped dejectedly.

Grinning, Larry Baugh placed a vial before Garrett, saying, “It’s time you knew.”

Garrett examined the label. It read, “Cologne: Guava Flavor.”

About EagleAye

I like looking at the serious subjects in the news and seeking the lighter side of the issue. I love satire and spoofs. I see the ridiculous side of things all the time, and my goal is to share that light-hearted view.

      Haha! You know, I had that angle in the back of my mind, and I doubted that anyone would consider it. I should have more faith in the creativity of readers. Thank you much! I’m glad you had fun.

    Great stuff, Eric! It seems this guava cologne is a bit better than the old-school funky cold Medina.

    Cheers!
