"I don't know why I did that, but I certainly do know that I regret every piece of it. After all she was so furious at me. Ha-haha..." sniffed the young man. He state was the clear sight of what pain is broken heart was surviving with. I looked around to find, he was all talking to himself, true a loner.
"Hello mister, may i know your name?" I asked him smiling. He looked up at me with cold stoned eyes.
"Why do you need my name? Huh?"
"Uhhh i just....., well i was looking for.. um a companion on this starry night.... to share and know some stories, I guess?" knowing that i was a terrible liar you could ever happen to meet up with.
"Ha ha ha, nice excuse miss" I was disappointed to guess that here goes my chance to get some ideas sooner for my first writing, as i thought he got some nice story up there, where here he didn't even want to tell his name.
"It's Aiden"
I was baffled with this sudden warm name introduction from this cold man.
" Oh my, you actually told me your name!" I squealed
"Geez, it's just my name. Tell me urs and what's your purpose for coming here"
The warm fire just got blew off again by the locked clod breeze.
" Oh sorry, my name is Kate. Kate Maxine, a new brilliant upcoming writer searching for some stories down this streets "
He raised eyebrows with a little chuckle, but soon again the face returned to it's old self.
"Oh so i guess you are here to hear the reasons of this state of mine and the story behind it? To make me remember all those sh*its i left behind again?!?"
His tone changed really quickly. I got scared
" I'm really sorry Aiden, but i really didn't see that coming. I just thought you might want to share it"
If stares could kill, i would have been dead by now. But those painful eyes soon grew softer.
A sudden silence blew. I couldn't think of anything to say cause i was so afraid that things may become worse.
"Maybe.. i can share?.." he mumbled to himself. To my instinct i whispered "yes you should, yes you should" just like how the fairies lure some kids or grown ups in their sleep making them decide what to do.
" Stop whispering" he said
"I'm sorry!" I said sweatily.
"Ok then, i guess I'm gonna share my stories, but me tomorrow here, sharp at 9 in the morning"
"Yes sir!" I saluted.
He growled, giving a hint of annoyance, "I think I'm gonna take my leave, hoping to meet you tomorrow, Aiden" as i ran across him.
I glanced behind me to see he was getting up to go to his home, i guess. I just noticed although in his devastated state.
He was quite handsome~
"AH, holy shi- , how could i wake up so late?!? Ugh, the bus must have gone by now.." i panicked.
"You, you stupid alarm it's all your fault. Now the first day to actually start my dream profession will have a hasty start" I gnarled to myself.
I think I ran faster than Usain Bolt, with my PBJ bread stuffed in my mouth, while fixing my fit all through the streets. I bet people thought I was some regular maniac muffling down the streets. Well might be not now, but maybe i will be that maniac soon.
*gasp gasp* my lungs wheezing for some breath after the relentless run i had all the way.
" Wha-at time is - - it now?" *still out of breathe* as i asked myself.
"9:02 AM" ~ someone spoke behind me.
"Wo-woah " tripping over from the shock, when suddenly the person grabbed my hand, stopping me from having my butt hurt.
" Be careful there miss " the man spoke.
I stood up, thanking him when finally i looked at him.
I couldn't recognise him at first, like who's this handsome young man who all of a sudden participated in my monologue.
As I was busy analysing the situation, our eyes met. Those eyes..
Lightning struck upon me. I recalled those were the eyes i promised to meet today at 9.
"Oh. My. Heavens. This groomed man in front of me is AIDEN? How??"
"Pfft- groomed?" he chuckled
Oh no did I say that out loud?
"I-i mean, nothing. Why are you grinning? What's funny, i didn't even say anything" yep way to make things even more embarassing
"no when did i say that it's something that u said?" he teased.
I was flustered. Well it's not really my fault, cause who would have thought that a person who looked that homeless last night could suddenly have a full makeover by night. I mean i thought fairy godmothers only came in fairytales right?
While I was busy finding ways to dig myself out of the loophole i created out of my silliness, all of a sudden something snapped in Aiden. His seemingly warm attitude became sturdy and cold.
" Well Ms.Kate Maxine i suppose. You are two whole minutes late. I thought I made myself clear last night. I asked for you to be at SHARP 9 am. Are you perhaps not so interested after all to share some sTarRy night stories "
"I'm sorry but huh?" I was baffled by the sudden change. What was it? His mood swinged faster than a tornado. Did I do something to make him mad? I was so confused.
" I am sorry, I got into some difficulties early in the morning, but I tried my best to come as fast as possible.. but i think 2 minutes might be not that much of a deal cause we are here to be ears to each others right?" I questioned smiling.
"Slacker" he scoffed arrogantly
I was speechless. He is such a tsundere. But sadly my system was not built up to adapt to such unreasonable shortcomings.
"Excuse me, could you please be a lit bit more considerate? I said I'm sorry"
"Hah pesky excuses"
My patience metre burst.
"What's wrong with you??" i spoke. Anger purely visible in my tone
"Looks like you are not worthy enough to listen to my story. I came here to help you, but look who came late and now is asking me to be considerate. How ironic" he scorned.
" It's literally two minutes!! And now you are questioning my worth for listening to your whatever bullshit you might say. Like I don't even know what your story is. You legit looked like a begger rolling down streets begging for some assistance to fix that broke *** heart, but now it's all me?!?"
I stomped away, without even thinking twice what i was saying. My head was still erupting like an active volcano.
As i went far and far, realisation's pace increased.
"omg.. what have i done.. there goes my one good chance of writing an actual good realistic story..."
This is such a mess..
