Can’t believe I’m really flying to America! And I’m flying alone! Really hope I can meet a guy there and bring a boyfriend back!

Yan
Hmm I have to reach the gate by 06:45… so I have about 3 hours, maybe I’ll get a hot chocolate from a cafe.
Yan walks around to look at the cafes’ menu and she decided to get her hot chocolate from ‘First Sight Cafe’.

Phil
That’s mine! Thanks a lot.

Oops sorry! Sorry! I thought it was mine. Sorry!
Phil

Yan is really embarrassed. She avoid Phil’s eyes while apologising.
Yan
‘What are you thinking? Yan! Seriously! That was so embarrassing! I shouldn’t have said having here, it should be take away. Okay let’s just hope that he is sitting somewhere far. Okay maybe I should just finish my cheesecake quickly and leave this cafe.’

Yan
‘Oh god there’s no space.’
Yan walks around the cafe searching for a seat. She did not notice that she is standing right beside Phil’s table.
Phil
Hey! I’m actually alone, if you don’t mind, we can share the table.
Yan
‘What is he doing here? Why am I near him? Oh god, where else can I sit.’
Yan
Oh, I don’t mind. Thank you!
Yan sat down awkwardly, avoiding eye contact with Phil.
Yan

Influencer? He called you Phil just now… Wait! Are you Phil? I mean are you, I mean is your account Philly Phil? Are you that Phil?
Phil
Hahaha. Yes! That’s me! Couldn’t recognise me? Hahaha, is that a compliment or? Maybe I’m not famous enough? Or maybe I camouflaged too well?
Yan

Phil

Phil
So where are you visiting in America? Any places you want to visit?
Yan
Hmm I might want to visit these places, let me find the website.
Yan
Here! Are these famous tourist attractions? Like a must go places?
Yan pass her phone to Phil so that he can read. Her hand accidentally touch his warm palm.
Phil
It’s okay. Just relax, treat me like a normal person or your friend. I’m not really famous, as you can see no one recognise me hahaha.
Phil smiles at Yan. His dimples are so deep.
Yan
Okay, I’ll try hahaha. Erm… here… these are the places, Phil?
Phil
Yea just call me Phil. These places are tourist attractions, they are really beautiful. It’s a must to take pictures.
Episode 3
Phil continued to recommend places that Yan might be interested to visit. Yan took them down on her phone.
Phil
Hey by the way what time is your flight?
Yan
Oh I have to reach the gate by 06:45. How about you?
Phil
Around that time too. The cheesecake is really yummy. How’s your cheesecake? Is it just cheesecake?
Yan
It’s really good, yuzu cheesecake. The yuzu is so refreshing, it’s not bitter at all!
Phil
Yuzu! Me too! I love cheesecake and this is the first time I try a yuzu cheesecake.
Yan
Me too! I love cheesecake too! I had yuzu cheesecake before, but some are a little bitter. This is good, really.
Phil
Shall we get more? Since we have some time before our flight.
Yan
Sure! I’ll go get it, maybe we can try other cakes.
Phil
Why don’t we go and see together? I want to get another cup of hot chocolate too.
They walked together to the cashier to order more cakes.
Phil
What a coincidence Yan!
Phil
I guess we share similar taste buds, hahaha.
Yan
‘Oh god, his dimples and his smile are a killer’
Yan
Right! I think so too!
Phil
Why don’t you go back first? I’m afraid someone might take our seats. I’ll get the cakes!
Phil
Yan finished her hot chocolate. Does she want another hot chocolate? What goes well with cakes? Chamomile tea? Okay I’ll get both and let her choose.
Phil ordered a yuzu cheesecake, key lime cake, dark chocolate cake and a biscoff cheesecake. He ordered 2 cups of hot chocolate and a cup of chamomile tea.
Phil
It’s okay, take a seat. I can handle it.
Yan
Right people who practice martial arts are different. Hahaha
Phil
Yea! Whooo haaa! Hahaha
Phil
Here, I’m not sure if you want hot chocolate again so I ordered chamomile tea too.
Yan
‘He is so sweet! I didn’t expect him to get me a drink, since I didn’t say just now. Just want this time to be forever.’
Yan
Oh my. Thank you so much! I didn’t say, how do you know that I needed another drink?
