You were sitting across from me at a certain coffee shop located somewhere on Hawthorne on Thanksgiving Eve. We were trading glances for almost an hour until you , without warning, suddenly got up and walked away. What a shame. There we were: two uncomfortable conservatively dressd midle aged fish out outta water, out on the town without our overbearing, overweight ball & chains. I sat there, updating my youtube channel, drinking my 3rd cup of espresso. You sat there lapping a latte and reading the wallstreet journal, holding it close as if to conceal yourself playfully. Then as if bored from all the current news events you set the paper down in your broad lap, rested your head back against the sofa, and you closed your furrow-lined eyes and went into a blissful meditative rest. Your strong hard breathing made myself feel more relaxed, as videos of Britney spears continually shuffled on my laptop screen, I kinda spaced out. I was awake yet mentally somewhere far away with you. Were we meant to be togther? This this fate bringing us together here in that cafe filled with woeful looking peopple? It was all good until that fat guy sat between us, disrupting our moment of sublime tranquility. He announced his presence with a symphony gutteral body noises that woke us both up out of our dream. Our vista now obscured by a mac n cheese eating monster, the moment was no more. It was then you stood up, checked your smartphone, and walked out. I felt the brush of wind as you passed me by, heading for the door. All I could feel was a growing rage inside, and I wanted the beat that blob of a human to within an inch of his life....until...oh my, who is that that just walked in? Please sit near me!
