Beautiful Mistake

A different Wednesday

It was five months ago, on a sunny but cold spring day. It was Wednesday three o'clock in the afternoon and we were in a small cafe on the corner of the street. A standard cafe, where every Wednesday we went to have a drink together. We sat around the square iron table in the corner of the bar, right next to the billiard table. It was very quiet for a normal Wednesday, certainly much quieter than usual. At the bar were Zayn and Sofie, who as usual were about to order our drinks, preferably with extra ice and many straws. Everything on that day seemed to go normal, as always we had a lot of fun together. But everything changed when she walked in.. 

The door of the cafe opened slowly, causing a sound of a little bell, and as always everyone's head turned. I did not know why everyone always did that, probably a kind of instinct or something? Softly there sounded the sound of heels on the wooden floor, the unrecognizable girl who walked in. She wore a dark blue woolen scarf, a black leather jacket, dark jeans and cowboy boots which were half long. Her dark black hair hung loose over her shoulders, just above her breast. "Who is that?" I heard a familiar voice say, a heavy and deep voice of Harry who was, as the others, staring with an open mouth at her. Okay, to be honest, I stared as well but i don't know why, she just had something. She walked carefully to the bar, while she blinked to our side and slowly wound her scarf from her neck. "Go ask her." Fia broke the silence, while she drank her glass of ice cold cola  empty causing a slurping sound. Everyone looked at her for a moment, making her shrug and  she dropped her empty glass with a bang on the table. "If you are afraid, I'll do it myself." She pushed her chair back and ran in great strides toward the bar. Fia was the best friend of Liam, they supported each other through thick and thin. If something was wrong, even though it was in the early morning or late in the evening, they were always there for each other. "What is she saying?" Liam said with a nervous smile while looking on their side. Just at that moment Fia came back, followed by the girl, grabbed a chair and gestured that she should come join us. The girl smiled, put her bag on the table and plopped on the chair. "Well guys, this is Zeina." The girl smiled at everyone around the table. "Hi everyone." My heart just skipped a beat when I saw her smile, so beautiful, so sparkling, so perfect. While I was staring at how she gave everyone a hand, Liam woke me out of my thoughts. "So Zeina, I've never seen you here before? Do you live near or ? "He smiled shyly, his cheeks were red and he stared into her beautiful dark round eyes. 

I had no idea what that meant but Liam was obviously up to something. I stared dreaming to Zeina, listening at everyones laughter. She was beautiful, gorgeous, just too good to be true. I could hear nothing more than her laughter, the laughter of Sofie who was tickled by Zayn, the harsh laughter of Liam. She was perfect, gorgeous, I did not know how but somehow I had to make her mine..
