Kent time indeed




Bonnie and Guy ignored the eerie wailing from the tsunami sirens in the distance, choosing instead to continue their bout of love-making in the sand. The ocean waves heaved silently, ominously behind them.  

The wind was really beginning to pick up when Guy finally rolled over and collapsed onto his back. They both laid there quietly, their chests heaving heavily. Bonnie released the handfuls of sand she had been clenching onto. Her tight grip had nearly turned the sand into glass.

When Guy's breathing began to subside he rolled over and rested his head on Bonnie's stomach; he looked up at her. 

"We should probably get going, sounds like a storms a-comin."

Bonnie frowned playfully. "But I want to play with Poseidon's trident some more," she teased.

Guy laughed and began to shake the sand out of his bathing suit. Suddenly Bonnie turned around and let out a terrified scream.

Guy turned to face the sea. A towering tsunami was racing towards the shore with terrifying celerity.

As they watched the wave rise up above them, they realized that they were not going to make it to safety before it reached land. 

Reaching into his pocket, Guy took out a half empty carton of Kent cigarettes. He pulled two out with his lips and offered one to Bonnie.

They both agreed that it truly was the perfect time for a Kent cigarette.
