It so hot outside and I have taken cover underneath the Train Station building. I'm wearing a blue summer dress that feels like it's stiking to my sweaty skin. My dark blonde hair hangs in curls on the sides of my face. I probably should put it into a ponytail but I'm too lazy.
Finally the screen shows were I have to take the train, I walk there and find my seat very easily. The seats around me are almost empty, just a couple of older ladies are sitting close to me and they seam to be having a very good time. They are talking about which vibrators are best and how to use them. I smirk to myself, they are fun to listen to.
After a few stations I fall asleep and wake up just getting close to my station, obviously I had set an alarm, otherwise I would have keept naping.
At the station I see my dad and brother waiting for me. My dad is a tall and round man, very nice, he's a big fan of meat and beer. My older brother, Ethan, is tall and has the same blond curls as me but his skin is much more tanned than mine, he works at a construction site to make some money so he can travel.
"Hi Nini!" My dad seams happy to see my but I could swear he's nose was a bit red from drinking. He hugs me.
"You smell like beer and bbq dad, what have you been up to?"
He smiles at me while my brother hugs me too.
"Dad has organised a small party because he's trying to impress his new girlfriend" says Ethan, also smiling.
Samantha was my dad's new girlfriend, he hasn't been with anyone ( to my knowledge) since he and mum divorced a couple years ago. My parents have a good relationship now that they are no longer together, better than ever as my brother and I always say.
So Samantha is a cashier at one of the local supermarket's , she's from Uruguay and has a good sense of humor. My dad and her are very good together , as long as he doesn't drink to much.
When we arrive at my dad's place I go to leave my things in my room, after I use the bathroom and check that I look acceptable I walk into garden. My dad's friends, Samantha and my dad are sitting at a long table, they are chatting and drinking. I go to say hello to everyone and then I see that my brother and his friends standing around and having fun.
I don't recognise one of them, the others are friends Ethan met from high-school. I'm curious to see who the new guy was, he semed interesting enough from behind with is dark hair and broad shoulders.
I take a beer and go stand next to them, they turn around and look at me, so my brother has to introduce me to them. Mike, Luke and Aaron recognise me and smile at me.
"And this is Gideon" my brother says as he points to the guy with dark hair. Now seen up close I can see his freckles and full lips. He's very good looking ( good looking? Am I a grandma?), he was hot and I could feel my face turning red just from feeling his eyes on me.
Gideon lifts his eyebrows as a salute. Minimal effort, I see.
"So what are you guys talking about?"
Aaron answers: "About our Mediterranean route in August"
"Oh cool, when and where are you going?"
"We're going to start of in Italy and then we'll go to Spain" Ethan says "I feel a bit bad, you're going to be alone here for that month, dad and Sam are also going away"
"Really? I didn't know, well it's not a problem I will enjoy sunbathing naked out here"
All laugh a little but Gideon seams disinterested.
"Are you all going?" I ask
"Na, Gideon isn't coming, we don't trust him"
All laugh, even Gideon.
"Yes I'm not going so there is room for Mike's new boyfriend"
"Gideon,shut up!" Says Mike with a embarrassed smile "We've only started dating a few months ago"
I felt good and happy to be at home. I drank a couple more beers and slowly people started to go home until it was 11 pm, only Aaron, Gideon, my brother and I remained. Ethan escorted Aaron into the house, he was a bit too drunk.
"Good night!"
"Good night" we answered.
Now I was alone with him.
"So your brother tells me you're studying philosophy or something like that"
He kept looking at the door, waiting for my brother probably.
"Yeah... Something like that, I study German philology"
"Nice" He says, still not looking at me. This was so awkward and for some reason all I wanted was his attention.
"Where did you meet my brother? You weren't with him in high-school"
He turns and finally looks at me, his eyes are tired (Tired of talking to me?).
"We work together"
"Okey" I feel a bit embarrassed and angry for trying to have a conversation with someone with so little interest to at least have decent small talk.
"I'm going to be around your house this month"
"What do you mean?"i ask
He shrugs his shoulders and turns to leave.
What an idiot.
