Mare's Nests

"Why don't you try dating him?"

I looked up at Isla and gave her a questioning look.

"Who?"

"You know that guy from your class before, what was him name again, was it Ricci?"

Ah yeah totally forgot about that. I leaned back at my chair and played with the ice tea I was drinking.

"I dunno we kind of kick it off better as friends though"

"That's the best part isn't it? Since you're friends already it wouldn't be that hard to date. Besides it's been three years since you last dated"

"I'm kind of thinking about the pros and cons of it"

"Ugh please.. dating isn't always about thinking logically"

I chuckled at her remark. Ricci is a good guy plus we have the same hobbies, same type of music genre that we like, same taste in food but..

"Should I give it a try?"

"Yeah you have nothing to lose anyway"

I scratched my nape, I stared at my iced tea before picking it up and drinking it. I looked at the cars parking in front of the café we are in.

I'm waiting though, waiting for a person who'll come out of one of those cars and greet us. A person who will introduce himself as Zev. But I know that's impossible right now.

"A month.. Let me see what happens within a month"
