I wake up at the middle of the day. I have a surf class in one hour, but I think I can't handle surfing right now. My head still hurts. I decide to explore my new hometown today. I don't have any schoolwork since I start with school after summer break. I need to explore this city and maybe meet new people. So that's what I'm going to do today. Maybe I can find some cool hotspots and make awesome pictures to post on my instagram.
I start walking through the city. I see awesome places and make a lot of pictures. I just love walking alone so much. All the people with their own stories. And I also love talking to strangers, not in a weird creepy way, just talking to open-minded people and learn more about life and this world. I had a philosophy class back in Amsterdam. I hope they have that too here in France.
I walk and walk and walk when I suddenly can't remember where I am. Where do I need to go? I get my phone out of my backpack, but it's dead. Yea great.. how am I supposed to get home when I don't know the way or direction? I look around me and try to recognize something, but there's nothing. I walk further down the street and see some restaurants. Hm maybe I can ask someone in the restaurant.. I suddenly see the surf group sitting at a table in a pizza restaurant. I can ask someone there. When I walk in I see the guy who saved me. I feel my stomach and it tingles. Shall I ask him or someone else..? Luckily the group hasn't seen me yet. Okay decide, the guy who saved your life or just a random one? I go for the mystery guy who saved me from the oceans power and walk to him. Let's do this Sophia, you need to get home.
I touch his shoulder and he turns around. When he sees my face he immediately smiles. "E-ehm, I'm sorry for interrupting your dinner but can you please help me?" I say. "Yeah sure, how can I help you?" He says with a kind smile. "I'm lost and my phone died. I don't know how to get home.." I say kinda awkwardly. He smiles and stands up. He says something to his group of friends and then he turns back to me. "I'll walk with you and show you how to get home, don't worry", I thank him and we walk back to the street. Oh my god, he just left his friends for me? He is so cute..
We walk back to the ocean and he shows me some awesome places. It's kinda awkward because we both don't really know what to talk about. I can only come up with one thing: "What's your name? I never asked you..". He answers with "My name is Martijn" he smiles and looks at me. I look back at him and smile. His eyes are so special. We don't really talk anymore, we're both just really appreciating the beautiful ocean. We look at how de waves flow and it looks magical. I love being with him, just his presence comforts me.
When we arrive at my street I look at him. He looks back and we stare in each other's eyes. I love this. "Thank you Martijn, you saved me again. I really owe you now" I say smilingly. I walk away but he grabs my hand. He pulls me back and then gives me a hug. I accept it and hug him back. I feel his heartbeat again, how can a heartbeat be so peaceful and perfect? When we let go of each other I look at him for a last time and smile and then I go inside my house. What just happened? I'm so happy, but this is a different kind of happy.. I've never felt this. Is this love?
