It's Delicious
Walking through the alley I always take as a short cut to and from work, I got kind of excited. Specially now that I'm almost at the place where I found the injured cat yesterday. Well I be able to see the person today?
Blake
Yup! Is that my breakfast?
My eyes dart to the plastic bag I'm holding before I glance around the place, trying to find any person. One, two, three, four cats... I see four cats but no person.
Merryl
Come and take it. Or the cats will feast on it.
Blake
They won't dare. See that protruding nail on the wall to your left? Next to a missing dog flyer? You may hang it on there.
Merryl
Why won't get it yourself?
Blake
I don't want to scare you away.
Merryl
And you think I'd judge you by your appearance?
Blake
Okay, I'll admit it. I'm the one who's scared.
Blake
I'm scared of scaring you away.
I'll never convince this person to show up, right? Forget it. It's not like I'm dying to know how my 'new friend' looks like.
Who am I kidding? Of course I'm dying to know how he or she looks like. But is there something I can do about it?
Merryl
Then, I guess, I'll just leave this one here as you instructed. I'll be late for work if I stay longer anyway.
Blake
Thank you very much. You just don't know how warm it makes me feel. You're a real angel.
Merryl
Don't let it go colder. Got to go.
Blake
Thanks again. Don't worry, time will come for us to face each other. Just not now.
Blake
Once I manage to get that handsome Hollywood look that can sweep you off your feet, I'll present my gorgeous self to you.
Merryl
Hahaha. Very funny. Off to work I should be.
*Sigh* In any case, I shouldn't bother with him anymore so I shoved my phone in my bag. Yes, I will call him a he from now on. Since he wants that handsome Hollywood look to sweep me up my feet.
As soon as I arrived at work though, I took my phone out again.
Blake
The breakfast? It's delicious. Thank you so much.
Merryl
If you like it then good. Work is starting now. You keep safe.
Blake
You too. Always be careful with people around you.
