TWO

Stretching out after turning off the alarm? I really do have the feeling of being so refreshed.

"Today's another day but this day is different! Or so it seem" I yelled as I move faster than usual.

My Goodness! I'm having a date today after getting dumped two months ago. Haha! This is very impressive and kind of unexpected.

I was just out drinking alone as she approached me. Of course exchanging contact information went with the small chat she started.

After that night, we hang out a lot and eat together! And well, through out those conversations we had, that was the time she asked me out - after knowing I do swing the same way. Also, I am quite amazed by the fact of her making the first move.

I am pretty much worked up with excitement 'cause who would not? Its been a while since I last go out with someone so I am atleast nervous and I cannot stop shaking from this amusing feeling!

But so far, yea, the break up scenes keep repeating everytime I involve myself in relationships.

Whenever I get serious, I am the one being toyed at or being left. Haha! So perhaps this time, I'll leave some self-love too to avoid the extreme heart break again.

Well, am still hoping that this one - even for a short moment only - will last somehow.

*Ring. Ring. Ring.*

The phone buzzed as someone calls.

"Oh? She already called. Probably excited than I am" I mumbled before answering the call.

"Yea? You're on the way already? I'm leaving the house, too. See ya then!" I chuckled before ending the call.

She is beautiful, fun and above all kind. She loves to fool around but there is some uneasy feeling when I first met her. It's like something seems off but as I get to know her, all those doubts and negative impressions I had on her faded.

Her name's Nicole. She is a year older than I am yet she is way too short - not that I am describing her as tiny, but compared to me, she's 5 inches shorter.

I see it as an asset for her and do define her as someone cute nevertheless of her having noisy mouth and not filtering some words she says - not that I mind it personally.

I rode a cab to reach our meet up area and as I got there, I saw her. She is wearing a black off-the-shoulders short dress matching with her hair in a bun, and her cutesy black high-cut converse shoes.

I ran towards her and tapped her shoulder as I giggled, "Got ya! You're quite early ain't you?" then smiled.

She gave me a smile in return then we started moving.

"What do you think about this movie?" she asked me calmly.

"Up to you. It's either that or this one" I responded.

She snorted then said, "Fine. Fine. I get it. We'll go for this one then! Don't you blame me if this turns out ugly" as we both laughed our wits out.

Watching the movie seriously, I hold her hand.

Cupped my face with it as I plant small kisses around it - while my eyes glued to the movie screen.

"You really! Stop that" she whispered, "I cannot seem to focus on the show because of it."

"Oh? The movie's quite a bore, don't you think so too? Maybe for me it is" I said as I let her hand go.

I grabbed the soda and sipped it dry then munched onto the salted caramel flavoured popcorn I got for myself.

"Seriously" she rolled her eyes then sighed from disbelief.

What's wrong with that? I'm just trying to close the gap between us and tried to act sweet! But somehow this makes me feel uneasy... As if she's just toying with me.

Very well then, let's play along for now.
