Catch me if you can

chapter 11

Martina

*We arrived at a nice, casual restaurant. We sat at an empty table and I looked around.*

M: Wow, this place is nice. Exactly my type

J: I told you

M: Although I expected to be a... more fancy place

J: I seem like a fancy person?

M: No, not at all. Nevermind.

J: Tell me

M: Nothing

J: Tell me what you wanted to say.

M: Well... mabye I thought you take this as a date, that you want me as your one night stand. And that you'd take me to the fanciest restaurant because, you know. All the chicks dig the fancy

J: You thought that I wanna use you?

M: You wanted the truth

J: Okay. I will ignore that. Because I don't use you just for fun.

M: Sorry but you have to admit this is weird.

J: I don't think so. Let's talk about something interesting. You are new in this part of town?

M: Yeah. But I live far from here.

J: Why do you work here then?

M: ...I worked in another cafés too. But I didn't like the salary. What about your job?

J: I work... I have my business

M: May I ask what that is?

J: Nothing special, I guess.

*Lies. Lies lies.*

J: If you like me, you don't need to know my job. I know yours, that's enough

M: Who said I like you?

J: You wouldn't be here if you didn't like me

*He was so smooth. And I was going out of arguments. He is a hella good actor. I need to change my behaviour somehow.*

M: What do you like about me that much?

J: You ask too much. Don't you believe that I simply like you?

M: No

J: Well... I liked how you look. You are friendly, nice. Is that enough?

...

M: It was a nice day. Thank you

J: I hope it wasn't our last day

M: You want to repeat it?

J: Anytime. I will call you.

M: ...okay, thanks

J: Bye sweetheart

*He said and came closer. He kissed my cheek and walked away, leaving me there blushing. A good day, according to that he is my enemy.*
