Just one Day

Ben

"Ben Shida Evens, Ben Shida Evens, your order is ready." I hear the waitress call from behind the counter. I stand up, leaving my bag on the seat so no one will take it and start to walk toward the counter and the waitress.

"Ben?" she askes as I stand in front of her. she was a black girl, short with a small figure. she had small eyes and her hair dark brown hair was up in a big bun. she looked like a normal teenager would look. she stood straight and her eyes were cold, she defiantly tried to look tough. but all I could think of was how she could be someone's little sister.

"yes, that is me" I gave her a sweet smile, the one all my friend say can shake a 'broken heart' and wait for her reaction.

it works, I can see her eyes softened up for a second but as quick as they changed they returned to the original form, icy cold.

"show me the Receipt," she said, the same tone as before. she is not an easy one.

I showed her the Recipe with the number 2089 on it, she turns around and brings me my Invitation. It catches her off guard and she finally looked at my eyes. I still stand there with my smiley face, looking directly at her. again, I can see the look in her eyes change, this time confused one. she looks at me, and then back at what I invited

"you are weird," she says suddenly, quickly she realizes what she said and redden up. she lightly bows and says "sorry" for about twenty times in a row. I laugh a bit while she does do and assure her it's okay.

she finally gets the courage to look at me again, now all of her defenses are down. I keep my expression the same as before, trying my best to make her feel comfortable.

"My name is Ben, what's yours?" I ask, she hesitates but as I throw her way another smile she starts to speak.

"Mt name is Ismael," she says shyly, she looks like such a different person from just 3 minutes ago. She waits for me to do something, says something, or just go without a warning.

"See that seat next to the window?" I point at the seat I stayed at, she looked at me confused I continued. "this is where I seat, I would love to talk with you more" I giggled a bit, "but I think people behind me are going to get upset If I stay here for too long" she hesitated, I could see it in her eyes. maybe I was too straight Forward with her "Please come if you have a break" I waved before she could say another thing, took my Invitation and sat back at my place.

Of course, she came.
