meri (1st person)
as she wrote my order down, i stared at her perfect face, a hoop through the center of her nose, her eyelashes being so long, yet natural, her perfectly shaped lips, her sprinkled on freckles, her entire being was stunning.
she tore the paper, snapping me out of my thoughts, and passed it to her blue-haired co-worker.
i smiled up at her, which she returned. her smile is so pretty.
i went ahead and payed, and as i put my card in my wallet, the barista said something.
"what're your pronouns?"
a jolt of exitment went through me, nobody has asked me that before. "i use she/her but i also dont mind they/them!" i internally cringed at how exited i sounded, but the girl just smiled. "i use she/her."
i hummed, waving and finding a seat. it was close to the door, but still slightly private.
i watched as the girl i talked to took off their apron and go to the back. i guessed that her shift ended.
she left the small back room, holding a computer, and went to sit down at the table in front of me.
the same blue haired boy places down a coffee and a plate with the same pastry i got, and he also placed my order on my table.
i thanked him, and took out my book and my annonation markers. flipping to the last page i read, i smile.
it was the 6th chapter, and it started in the words, "shut up and kiss me already". i take a pink highlighter, highlighting the words, adding little hearts using my red pen. it's my dream to have myself being shut up by a kiss.
im a hopeless romantic, and i know it. i have a stupid dream of having a girlfriend i met like it was a normal day, being caught staring at them, they just smile and shake their head, and we slowly start falling in love with eachother throughout about a year.
"how's your book going, sabri?"
"please don't ever call me sabri ever again." the girl in front of me scoffed. my head perked up slightly at her voice.
"your only other nickname is sab and i am getting bored of it."
"sabri was the next best thing? what about rina?"
"we both know that it's your sisters name."
"oh! that reminds me.." the girl took out her phone, and her friend caught my eye. shit shit shit. my eyes went wide, did he think i was looking at him?
he pointed slightly at sab, smiling slightly. my lips formed a stright line as i hid my face in my hands, nodding slightly.
he held back a smile, quickly writing something on a peice of paper. "sab, i'm going to the bathroom."
"yep!" she responded, not looking up from her phone. the boy folded the paper in half and walked past my table, placing the note on ny table and quickly taking a sharp turn around.
i unfolded it, seeing a number on it and a few words: 'text me, i'll help u with sab :)'
my eyes went wide, and looked around for the person. he leaned on a wall, looking at his phone. he glaced up, grinning.
i took out my phone, fuck it.
