This week's prompt was "engages".
“He makes me feel so alive!” Andrea said, struggling to accurately express her feelings. “He just completely engages me with his words, his voice, his body.”
She knew she was wasting her time and energy in the obsessive pursuit of this man, but couldn't stand admitting it to her friends. Finally she just shrugged, “I'm just amazed at the breadth of his knowledge and the stamina of his intellect,” she said, hoping to achieve a sophisticated tone.
“Yeah, his intellect. ” said Janie, rolling her eyes and making air quotes to titters of laughter.
“Seriously?”
Sarah giggled, “... breadth of his knowledge...”.
