     After having a steamy shower, I pulled my tower in as I wept off excess water. I let my music play as I  wiped water from head to toe. As soon as my hands were dry enough, I grabbed my phone as it sang the last line of the song. I switched the player off as the song ended, and grabbed my clothes out to the bathroom. The steam poured out of the bathroom as I proceeded to the laundry chute. Locking the door to my room, I took off my towel as I sighed in relief while trying hard to hold up my covering. I plugged in my blower as I dried my hair up. The orange color of the sky has faded out as the stars have come out to conquer the night. I heard my phone vibrate as I received another message from Nathan, he was almost ready and was about to leave his house. I panicked as I was just getting ready. 

     "Just 20 more minutes! Go ahead and wait for me there!!!" I replied quickly as I grabbed my jeans and shirt off my closet. I put them on so quickly as I rushed to grab my comb. I tripped over the floor as my phone began to ring. It was Nathan, I grabbed it quickly as I answered while I multi-tasked by changing my attire. I grabbed my shirt as I stood up while fitting in my bra. My jeans began falling with every step I took. My hair was finished as I was about to put the finishing touches.

     "Wait! For just a while... Ummm.. Please order me a Cappuccino Milkiness as I just go on my way!" I answered quickly as I grabbed my purse and a sweater, and ran downstairs as I left. I made sure my brother knew when I left so I shouted as I closed the door shut. I ran out the porch as I tried waving out for a taxi. Yes, luckily, I was able to get on in time.

     "Wilderness Cafe sir..." I told the directions to the driver as I pulled out my phone to inform Nathan I was on my way. I never thought of texting the taxi's plate number, for I trusted him. The streets were so fill of life even when the evening came. I laid down the warm, leather seats as the skies were clear and invaded by the evening stars that burned billions of light years away from Earth. Arriving at my destination, I pulled out my money to pay for the fare as the sounds of people conversing in the milk tea cafe came to my ears. I shut the door as I entered the cafe, I was using my sharp eye to look for Nathan, but he wasn't there inside. I went outside where the grassy plains and hills were found, the favorite place where Nathan loved to stay. I was looking from left to right as I found him at the edge of the boardwalk. I approached him as he seems to be replying to my message.

     "Nathan!!!" I shouted as I was closing in on him. "Hey Rain! What took you so long??? I already payed for the milk tea..." He gave me that disappointed face as I immediately pulled out my purse to give him the money which I promised to pay for the tea. He chuckled as I sat down to fix myself. He brought out his tablet to play some games as I requested him to wait for me while I went to the restroom. The sweet scent of aroma filled the cafe with the warming taste of coffee and the sweet blend of milk tea. Being the only store who sold milk tea, it was frequently visited for the infamous product. I entered the ladies room where I was welcomed by a sweet scent of cranberries. I quite enjoyed my time urinating in the stall for the undying scent storming my brain. Finishing, I washed my hands to clean it up while I looked at myself at the mirror to fix some messed up parts of my hair. I was ready, so I went back to enjoy my time together with my best friend. Arriving back, I sat down as we drank our refreshing milk tea. The atmosphere was quite boring, so we decided to invite Crystal and Alexander. We both knew they were going out this night and if we can inform them earlier, have their date here at the Wilderness Cafe. I dialled Crystal as Nathan sat there waiting for the result of the call. Crystal hanged up, and texted me saying "Sorry, Andrew and I are 'doing' it... :P Nah just kiddin', we're watching Halloween xD." I sighed as there was nothing to do. It was then Nathan decided to stargaze with me. As we waited for that moment, he played with his tablet as I began looking up to sky whilst drinking my caramelly, cappuccino milk tea. The lovely sight was just so, overwhelming. I just wished someone would accept me to be their girlfriend, despite of my unruly behavior. As soon as Nathan beat his highscore, we both finished our milk tea as we set off to the grassy hill at the center of the plain as we went to stargaze.
