I am just sitting in a corner of Starbucks sipping my Java Chip Frappuccino. It is off season now and I am enjoying every single second I have for my free time.
The "Me Time" I have is really worth it. I get to relieve the stress brought by Season 77. Ugh! We fell short again. Perhaps this is one way of challenging my innate capabilities, the ones which are not fully exposed from within. Nevertheless, I am glad that there are still people who stick on our side despite the loss that we had.
I release a deep sigh after reminiscing such thoughts. "Move on!" I told myself.
I am stopped from my deep thoughts when I see a guy coming in the coffee shop. He is probably as tall as I am. His biceps are big. He must be an athlete. His body shows though! I continue my gaze to him as he leads to the counter to order. I do not know but the moment I set my eyes on him I feel something weird. My heart is not beating normally.
I shrug the thought in my mind and sigh to release that unwanted feeling I have. A minute after, "Uhm, excuse me. Pwedi bang makishare ng table? It's quite crowded kasi."
"Ha? Ah, sure." I wasn't prepared. "Thanks!" He responded with a big smile.
I keep myself busy scrolling my Instagram and Twitter accounts in my phone. I feel awkward knowing that there is somebody in front of me whom I do not know. I got bored after checking my notifications for 10 minutes I suppose. Just then I realize that the guy sitting in front of me has vanished. I do not know how long he left but I am pretty sure I got dissappointed. Unexplainable feeling.
I take the last sip of my coffee and left the area.
I drive from Taft to Bulacan to visit my family. I miss them so much and I cannot wait for the weekend to come. Unconsciously, the guy's countenance is what I have been imagining since I started the engine.
"Why?" I ask myself as the traffic light turned red. This guy has a great effect on me. I am puzzled.
