It was Tuesday night, I was sitting in a bench near the sea.
The sea breeze was cool, the ocean was serene and the sky is on great perfection.
In deep thoughts. When somebody just sit beside me. So I turn my gaze and look at him.
He smiles and says
"What are you doing here? Alone?"
"Thingking? Yeah, how about you, what brought you here?" I answered.
"My feet" he laughs and I just raised my brows.
"I'm just kidding, I saw you so I decided to stop by and-" he paused.
"And?" I asked.
"Nothing"
"Hmn? Okay."
And I just continue watching the sky and listening to the song of my heart. When he interrupted. Again.
"By any chance do you have a date on Valentines?"
"Valentines?"
"Yeah, you see it's the 7th of February, 7 more days to go and its Valentines. Does anyone asked you out?"
"Seriously Jos? Are you asking me out?" I smiled and looked at him.
"Hmn, am I too fast? too obvious?" He asked while scratching his head. Cute.
"Nah, just a wild guess. So I'm right?"
"Yeah?" he said and smiles sheepishly.
I chuckles, "Where's that girl from education department your dating?"
"You remember her. We're over Kris, about a month ago"
"Oh, fast" I smiled and looked up the sky.
"So?" he asked
I looked at him.
"We'll see. Valentines then."
"You sure? I'll see you then" I just smile.
"Gotta go Kris. See you on Tuesday then?" he said then waves his hand and go.
I just looked at his retreating back and sighs. Men.
After the conversation with Josiah. I stood up and walk to the bus station cause its late already.
At my way to the bus station, I got a glimpse of Jos's ex girlfriend. Goosebumps.
As I try to recall the face of the girl, I see someone approaching me.
"Hi Kris"
"Oh, Hi Dev" I smiled.
"Going home?"
"Yep, you?"
"Pharmacy. You know, medicines?"
I just nod.
"Uhm, Kris, can I ask you about some thing?"
"What is it?"
Fidgeting. Dev sighs and said "Regarding with Jos, uh, we're actually on rough road this time. If you could-" she pause and look at me.
"I could what?" I smile urging her to go on.
"I know your friends. And Jos and I, we're not actually in talking terms. Can you help me? Please? Talk with him?" She pleaded. Her eyes looks really tired.
I might've stared at her for too long since her expression change to worry.
I sigh. "I don't know if I can really help. I'll do what I can do".
