on my feet, I

I was looking for the perfect gown for my wedding. I stopped in a known shop and checked the prices.Very expensive. I never dreamed of having an extravagant wedding. I just want a simple one.

I also dropped by in a jewelry shop. I noticed the aquamarine diamond in the corner. It is my birthstone. At first glance, I immediately adored the little jewelry. I examined it closely and sighed. I can't buy this beautiful thing. All i could do is to stare at it.

I decided to let go of the stuff and proceed to my business for that day. I'm not an implusive buyer.

I was about to cross the street when somebody called out my name. wow, someone in the crowd knew me. I was ecsastic. I turned around and saw the face I never thought of seeing again. I was happy and sad at that same time.

It was him. The radiant face with that same silly smile. everything in him is still the same but more matured. I still can't help but be mesmerized by his beauty. He is still as stunning as ever. I do not really know what to act or say. I was shocked. Extremely shocked.

The ambiance of the coffee shop is cozy. I watched through the glass. I saw people passing by and were unusually happy. He looks intently at me. Perhaps he missed me. I missed him too, If only he knew.

The waiter served our coffees. Somehow, the awkwardness lighted up. I have now my excuse to look at his face. He still stares at me. I asked him why. He grinned, like he always do, and said that I looked gorgeous. I never thought he would praise me, I never hoped. It was flattering to receive a compliment from a guy like him. I felt my cheeks turned red. Embarassing.

I tried to say he also looked good but he interrupted me with his sweet smile and said he already knew that I would praise him as well. I have always been that girl who criticizes him. For now, my childish acts vanished. He should not expect me to act the way I used to be especially now. Things have changed and so am I.

I took a sip on my coffee. I do not know how to start this conversation but I do not want this to end. It seemed like eternity since I last saw him and seconds is not enough for me to get over with his sudden appearance. I won't let this pass.

He started with the question why did I went to another country. I took several sips of my coffee before I couldanswer his question. I'm afraid to give out my answer. I know it would branch out to more questions. I want to be away with it, as soon as I can. But I guess, destiny made its way to finally clear things out before the other day.
