AL: "So you like coming early to.. um.. a meeting?"
MS: "Yeah, not to the closed room ones though!"
AL: "Yeah I mean we all want to be on time and stuff but you seem to be waiting long everyday before your.. umm.. date (MS chuckles) ever shows up"
MS: "Today it was my accountant"
AL: "Ohh well.. I'm sorry"
MS: "No I get what you're saying. You've seen me doing it before I suppose"
AL: "Yes I come here every other day"
MS: "Well.. perhaps every day of late (with a smile)."
AL: (sheepish smile and sip on the drink, silence for a while) "...so that's interesting to see a woman being so early every time."
MS: "I like to wait."
AL: "Then you must be the rare kinds, I wonder what you would like about it though"
MS: "Ohh well.. when I wait, I find the place of the person in my life. And I don't just mean coffee shops. For some of these dates, I get ready into something really special, grab my fanciest clutch or shoes. I check my make up at traffic signals. Then I use sit at the table with my legs crossed and sip carefully without smudging my lip color. And then as I stare into infinity, I wish they never show up. To be honest with you, maybe I fantasized this date since the night before, but at that moment, that wake of the wait, I realize, all I really want is..." (sudden pause and sip into drink)
(To be continued..)
[Disclaimer: It's a very casual everyday conversation that is taking place on this blog and nowhere else that I know of. It's not meant to be engrossing or entertaining or even meaningful by any means. Neither do I intend to write a novel nor play :P It's just a random urge to write something that made me open the blog and I went with the flow, like MS in the last bit. Then just like her, I decided to pause and get my work back on! So till next time.. stay tuned :)]
