time: 8:14 am

i was watching some old movies on netflix and i wanted to change into leggings. i went to my drawer, grabbed some and threw them on.

when i threw my jeans on the floor something fell out of it.

the napkin that guy gave me. there was a note, i started reading it out loud.

go back to the coffee shop at 9:05.

i don't know why but i was interested in going.

time: 8:35 am

i got ready basically throwing my jeans back on and taking my hair out of its messy bun.

grabbing my phone & keys on the way, i made my way to the coffee shop. finally getting there at around 8:48.

he wasn't there so to kill some time i ordered some tea and sat at my usual spot and watched some youtube videos.

time: 9:05 am

i looked up from my phone & looked out the window that had in big gold letters "irwin's" the name of the coffee shop, the guy was against it.

he was smoking, i hate smokers. i literally had to force myself to go out there.

i was kind of nervous to talk to him, i don't know why.

"hi."

he was still smoking, he glanced at me and didn't say anything. what a lil shit.

"we have two minutes till it's time."

i didn't know what he was talking about. he had an accent, not a new york accent. a foreign accent. that's probably why he is so quiet.

"it's 9:08."

he said.

"okay? what's so important about that?"

i asked confused.

"we're going on an adventure."

my eyes went wide.

"what the hell?! no, i'm sorry i don't know you."

"but what's funny is i know you."

he said then smirked.

he pushed me against the wall and looked me in the eye.

"sit down."

he commanded.

"why?"

"just fucking sit down!"

he said starting to get annoyed.

i sat down, he sat down next to me. i was waiting for him to say something.

but instead he gave me a note.

this starts at 9:08 and this ends at 9:08

i turned my head and caught him staring at me. his eyes kind of went wide and he put his head down blushing.

that was pretty cute.

he looked up.

"so you won't see me again, tomorrow at 9:08."

i nodded because i didn't know what to say.

"for fuck sake why don't you ever talk?"

like i said before i don't really like the people in new york but him, i'm not being nice to him.

but also don't expect me to speak either, i just don't want him to hurt me.

"ok let's go."

he pulled me up and took my hand. my hand got lost in his, his hands were so big.

he was speed walking down the street and it seemed like he didn't have car.

why did i come? i don't even know his name.
