The Sweet Escape

The first time I had sex in the pandemic was the first time I’d had sex in a year. On July  3^rd, I met up with friends for a socially distant reunion in central park. We were all expecting to  go back to the same acting class after a two-week break when months passed making that  return unrecognizable. I’m fairly introverted, which I know makes a lot of sense for an aspiring  actor, but I was happy to see these familiar strangers.
