BUDAPEST

Chapter 3

He walked me back to the apartment. I introduced him to Tee. They shook hands, and we invited him for dinner but he said that he was going to meet up with a family friend. Then when he left,  Tee noticed something in my mood.

"There's something different about you,  Max... It's a good different. There's joy in your face." She said.

"It's nothing," I shrugged.

But that man I just met. He did give me some sort of happiness. Something changed me. I skipped dinner, because Harry fulfilled me. I decided to text him.

"Hello. You home? Just wondering." I texted.

The reply came quickly.  "Not yet. Am in a taxi. Why?"

"Just wondering. Stay safe. Good night." I know I just met him, and it sounds awkward to say it,  but I was tempted to type I love you.

I decided to go to bed already. Then the sound 'toodle-doo' which meant there was a notification. I pressed  the on switch and the light shone brightly lighting up the room. It showed the contact name Harry. I immediately opened the text.

"Hey. Can you go to my apartment tomorrow morning? Before the sun rises?"

"Okay. Meet you there. Good Night bud." 

Then I fell asleep with him on my mind. Harry.

______________________

It was the morning. I turned my head to the right where the window was. Tee probably went to buy groceries. I sat up, fixed my hair, and looked out the window. There was tea left for me. I sipped, and out the window the sun lit up the cafes and pubs. There was a man screaming Hungarian to his fellow colleagues. Then I realized. The sun was shining. Harry was waiting. I decided to grab my pants and my coat then I ran down in my slippers. I wore my socks and shoes then ran out. The breeze hit me like a storm and I freezed.
Do it for Harry. You'd rather be freezing to death then knowing he is waiting. So I ran to his apartment. Lost, I asked a man for directions.

"American, no?" He said.

"British. Where is this apartment?" I said, breathing in between syllables.

"There." He pointed North and I ran to the North. Buda was accessible and I was able to run around, without having to wait until it's the GO sign. Then I arrived. I pressed the button to doorbell. Then Harry's voice was what I was hearing.

"Max? Is that you?" He asked.

"Yeah. Sorry I'm late. "

" Finally. " And the door swung open, revealing that well sculpted brunette with a cup of coffee in his hand.

"Latte? I know it's your favorite." I took the coffee and gave it a sip.

"Mmmm." I said

"I can make that for you everyday. " He took my hand and lead me in. And wasn't it fun.
