In Ayala's bustling street, where the sunlight gleams,

I walked alone, lost in my dreams.

The breeze whispered secrets, the sky painted blue,

When suddenly, there he was, a foreigner true.


"Umbrella is supposed to be your sun's protection" he said with a grin,

His laughter contagious, drawing me in.

"Donate it to someone in need," he playfully teased,

As we strolled together, my worries appeased.


He offered his company, a walk to my work,

In his presence, I found myself feeling perked.

He asked for my number, I hesitated at first,

But why not take a chance? Quench my curiosity's thirst.


As we chatted and laughed, under the bright sky,

I couldn't help but wonder, could this be a try?

A friendship, a connection, blossoming new,

Or merely a passing encounter, a moment to view?


For he was a professional, a doctor in stride,

While I, an intern, still learning to ride.

Yet in the uncertainty, I prayed for a sign,

Guidance from above, in this moment divine.


So, here's to that foreign guy, who crossed my path,

Bringing laughter and warmth, amidst life's aftermaths.

May our encounter be a tale, both strange and sweet,

A memory to cherish, as our paths meet and greet.
