At the Cafe

Sitting there, with a mug of hot coffee between my hands, in total silence… was getting very annoying. Irritated because he wasn’t speaking, just staring at me, I couldn’t take it anymore. “So, are you going to talk or keep trying piercing my soul?” “Oh, I was just-, I wanted to-… never mind. Yes, so what do you want to know?” He asked. “Oh, I don’t know… maybe starting with… what I was doing in your apartment?!” I said irritated, he was the one to ask for time to explain! “It’s not my apartment…” He mumbled looking down with a look of guilt in his eyes, but didn’t go on this subject. “Ok look,” looking back up. “Do you remember when you were walking in a dark alley?” “Yah… I heard voices when I approach a certain corner, but when I check there was no one, so I turned around to go back…but… umm… I don’t know what happened next, I woke up in your apartment.”  “Well, I was just walking by, and saw you on the ground and decided to …not let you there.” He said confident, but what he didn’t know, is that I can feel when someone lies to me. “So you just happen to pass by a dark alley in the far end of Ashland? I don’t believe you. And how come I was knock out?”

Now what do I do? She knows I’m lying, and I just can’t tell her… Ah! Why is life so complicated! “ Ok… well, when you walked in that alley, I knew something was wrong… so I followed you, and when you turned that corner, I saw those…bastards get behind you, and they kind of attacked you, they knock you down with a… gun. So I came in and ….um… well when they saw me they ran away. So I took you, and brought you in, ah, apartment.” I decided to tell her half the truth, she damn well deserves it. She looked at me with those green eyes, making me loose myself in them. She seems to trust this one… “Did you see what they looked like?” She asked, here comes another lie. “No, they had masks.” She looked down at her coffee, with one tear coming down her cheek. It took all my will power to not go and whip it out smoothly. She used the back of her hand to whip it, and looked back up. “But wait one second…” Oh no, what now?  “Were you following me?” “No, no I wasn’t, well… only when I saw you entered the alley.” I replied, and this was the truth. “Knew someone was following me,” she murmured. “Well, now that I know that, well, thank you for not leaving me there.” She said looking at me with a cute little smile.  “You welcome.” I replied with a smile.

OMG! I smiled! It made so long I didn’t smile that I can’t even remember when the last time was. What was it with this guy; making me smile and making me talk. I never talk for fun, or just because I want to. I usually only talk when I need to. But now, now something is bringing a side I never knew I had out of me. Was it there all the time? And, oh, that smile! It made him look 10 times hotter… wait what? Since when do I think like this? I mentally shook myself and took a sip of my double sugar café. It was good café, way better then the one on my street that I usually go to, when I somehow get little money. But back to matters in hand, I know he is hiding something. I also know he didn’t tell me all the truth with his explanations. I could feel it, feel it strong. Stronger than ever, which is somehow very weird, but intriguing.  “So what’s your name?” Hayden asked. When I looked up at him, he wasn’t looking at me; he was actually looking behind my shoulder, where the door of the café is. And the look on his face told me it wasn’t nice what he was seeing. Before I could turn back to see what it was, he took both of my hands in his, bringing on a big electric shock, and a blinding pain in my head appeared, I closed my eyes tightly shot, and suddenly  an image of a guy in a all black suit with a sword attached to his waist appeared. He was lying down on a blanket next to someone. A girl…but I couldn’t see her. And I also couldn’t see the guy’s face. “Hey! What’s wrong? It is not the time!” The guy said in a hurry panic voice. But the pain was subsiding, and so was the vision. It was then I realize it was Hayden who was calling. I took a deep breath and opened my eyes.  He was going to take my hand again but I pulled away quickly, and I needed air. NOW! I spotted a door to the right of me, and took my chance. I dashed for it. I pushed the handle, and thank god! It wasn’t lock. I arrived outside in a small alley. I didn’t stop running until I was outside of the alley, passed some stores, and arrived to a park. I sat down on a bench at the far back of the playground, behind some trees. I brought my legs to my chest, and buried my face in my legs. I took a couple of deep breath and put down back my legs. I looked around and realized it was getting really dark, and the moon was up. It was the full moon, a big yellow full moon. My favorite nights, I decided to lie down on the bench and stared at the magnificent moon, and started thinking of everything that is happening. Gosh! What a day!   When you think about it, I have been attacked, met a hot guy that hadn’t run away from me, had a vision, which is SO abnormal, and now I’m lying on a bench in a place I don’t know. There’s so much that could happen in one day. And I’m so going to get “worse” if I reach home. But I didn’t want to think of that, so I cleared my mind, and I closed my eyes, just for s short while. It can’t hurt.
