I was so immersed to the book, don't care what happen to my surrounding until a hand waved in front of my eyes. Flustered, I looked up to see who's disturbing me.
Gulp. Not the person I wanted to see right now. But I guess I can play it cool.
I put on a blank face and asked, "yes?". He smiled at me, forcefully. "Can I join you?". I just nodded and continue to read the book on Wattpad. But my mind won't focus on it. My mind focused on the person sat in front of me. Why is he here?
"So", he cleared his throat. "Why you don't reply my text?". I groaned inwardly before looked into his eyes. "I forgot", I lied. He eyed me suspiciously but don't ask. Well, I guess three years of relationship could make you know the person more than enough.
He kept quiet and took a sip of his drink. I raised my eyebrow. "Since when you drink coffee?".
He put down his drink on the table and smiled. "Since I knew this person". His eyes were on the drink. "Won't you get stomachache from it?", I asked again. Finally, he looked me in the eyes. "I don't. Just get headache afterwards".
From the beginning since I know him, he doesn't like to drink coffee. I don't recall getting stomachache or headache if he drink it. But one thing for sure, his body don't accept dairy products.
"Oh", was my replied. I drank my latte after that. Talking make me thirsty. I put my drink back on the table and resumed act like I'm reading.
"How are you now?", he started the conversation again. God, why he keep talking to me? It's awkward enough.
"Good".
"Great".
"Yeah".
"Am I disturbing you?".
Closed my eyes, I locked my phone and put in on my lap. Opened my eyes, I shook my head in response.
"It's just- Nevermind", I looked around the coffee house.
"What is it? Tell me". I smiled inwardly at his words. Reminds me of our brokeup four months ago.
"It feels awkward talking to you". He nodded his head in understanding. Then he shook his head and looked at his hands.
"Can't we be friends?", he mumbled softly but I still heard him clearly. Friends? Are we repeating the cycle again? Strangers to friends to couple and back to strangers again?
But I pretended I didn't heard him at all. That would do it.
