i'm all alone with my friend, Daphne today, we walked to the nearby lake which is a few hundred metres from where we staying. it was sunny and windy. the morning sunlight touches my skin. i feel warmth and comfort. it was a perfect weather.
so, it was Sunday, did i forgot to mention that the lake is a recreational park? i used to go here since high school. it so calm being with the nature. as i walked down the trail, a unsuspected thing happened to me.
i saw you, there, standing near the lake wearing a swimming shorts with a life jacket on top. you're shirtless underneath that jacket. i can see your rip nicely build muscle on both of your hand. its well tanned and saw your veiny hands. i was about to turned away when Daphne insisted me to just walked down to the lake. i wanted to refuse but she pulled me, dragged me with her.
there am i, standing next to her, confused and clueless. she started greeting you and you looked at us but, directly at me, you made me feel so unease. i was sweating. reluctantly, i just stood there feel so stupid by dragging myself there which might made everything become worst.
my friend, Daphne, started giggling with you, and you offered her a ride on a canoe. she insisted me on joining her, but i was too scared and afraid of getting myself drowned. so, i ws kindly to reject her offer and let her have some fun by her own.
feel so bored once Daphne started paddling her canoe, i felt like abandoned her and free myself from this pain. so, i still am a nice friend, so, i might just wait for her. as soon as Daphne paddling herself in the middle of the lake, i decided to sit near the lake site facing the nice green-coloured lake. it was beautiful.
then, i realise, i was all alone with you. you stood there doing nothing, not even bother to talk to me. so, i think it was good. hope you care less about me. i sat there, pulled out my novel from my clutch and started reading it.
while i was reading the novel, somewhere deep in my imagination, i was drifted to what you did to me last time. i was your friend with benefits. you never think of me as your girlfriend (which i wasn't hope for). it was all fun spending time with you.
back to reality, i paused for a while and took a deep breathe. and continue reading it. i sighed once in a while. i knew, you were checking me out everytime i breathe out those heavy exhaled. then, you slowly ywalked and stand there, next to me. i was hoping you won't say a thing. and i was right, you stood there, speechless.
once in a while, i shoved my head and took a quick glanced towards you. from your face, i knew you trying to do something, find solution or maybe find a topic to start talking to me. i acted like i was so deeply in those novel i read and made you realise that i wasn't pay any attention to you.
once in a while, when the warm breeze blew, i could smell you. you smell cinnamon with pinch of vanilla. you do smell good. but, i know. you won't dare to do anything brave enough. so, i kept on reading my novel but i still hope that you might speak to me. but, you just stand there next to me, acted like i wasn't exist. out of the blue, suddenly you sat next to me, eyes on me. i looked and our eyes contact. i felt electric pulse shooting from you dark green eyes. i blushed and looked away. i saw you smiling from the corner of my eyes.
then, i heard a paddle being put down and looked at Daphne, you accidently felt into the lake while you try to get out of the canoe i was about to rush myself to you when suddenly, a hand pulled me down and saw you running towards Daphne. you pulled her out of the lake. i rushed myself towards Daphne to made sure she's ok. you stood right in front of me, trying to do something, instead of doing something, you did nothing which i was hoping for.
Daphne dried her wet shirt and thank you for tried to rescue her. that the least she could do. Daphne said bye to you and turn around, walked up towards the trail leaving me a bit far behind. i stood up, patted my pants and tried to walked away when suddenly, you said goodbye to me. i looked at you in despise and gave you that "look" which i wasn't mean to show. what done is done. after that, i followed Daphne up the trail and live you there standing, clueless and speechless.
