Cafe Romance
Right now it's raining in city X. There in a corner of city X in cafe near window sitting a girl in a white dress, long black hair and fair skin with so pretty face. It's like some angel is sitting. Actually this is not first time I saw her like this sitting in this cafe while being busy with her work. I am watching her for almost a month but till now I don't know her name. Daily while I return from office at evening she will be there with 3-4 cup of coffee and some cakes on her table.
Always she will be writing something. Because of her I started coming to this cafe every evening to look at her. I don't know what attracted me towards her but it became my habit of watching her till she leaves this cafe at evening. Today I mustered courage to speak to her so that I know her better.
"Excuse me"
"...Yes"
"I am sorry to disturb you, but all other tables are full. If you don't mind can I sit opposite you?"
"..oh. Okay"
"Thank You."
"Are you novel writer?"
"Yes."
"Are you writing novel right now?"
"Yes."
"Actually I am quite a fan of novel. What type of novel do you write?"
"Romance novel."
"Do mind if I know your name so that I can read your novel?"
"Sure.Erika. My name is Erika."
"My name is Parth. This is my business card. If you are launching any new book please let me know so I can buy."
"Sure."
I was so nervous. My hand is till sweating. I thought she will reject me but thank god she didn't mind me sitting here. I am so happy now that I know her name. I should take it slowly so that I dont scare her away.
Parth:"Are you leaving now?"
Erika:"Yes."
Parth:"Okay."
I dont want to sound like stalker so I shouldn't push more. She is so lovely I wish when I say my feelings to her she won't reject me.
Erika Pov:
I shifted to this neighborhood for almost a year. When I first shifted here I saw this cafe which was near by my neighborhood so I started coming here to write my novel. Yes, I am a novel writer. I am 27 now and I had published almost 5 books till now. I like to write romance novel because there is no ramance in my real life so I try to find romance in novel. I like to see couple crossing this cafe and imagine there beautiful moments and write those things in my novel.
Suddenly, around three weeks before I saw a guy who will sit opposite me in cafe and order the same thing as mine in evening hour and keep staring at my face. First I felt awkward being watched like that but I noticed one thing that at evening time daily he will come, sit opposite me and order the same things. But he never tried to converse with me. Soon, I realised that I started liking him the way he watch its like warm feeling inside my heart. I wanted him to take initiative but I never thought he will take today to talk with me. I was so nervous if he didn't like me after conversing with me for first time but I realised even he was nervous so I think there still chance for us. I can't wait for tomorrow to see if he is going to take initiative or not.
