Chapter 3 - Flashback to the past - Day at the Coffee Shop

It was 7:00pm when I reached at Bloomsbury Coffee Shop. Never have I dared to reach this early that too for some arrogant douchebag!

I Spent my whole time ordering a lattè thrice in anxiety and boredom. Oh my god! I've never felt like this earlier and that's insane!

*At 8 PM*

(Greg arrives to the Coffee Shop)

"Shall I grab a seat with you, Madamè?" Greg responded trying to flirt.

"I wouldn't call you out to a Coffee Shop just so you could choke yourself to death. So obvious is my answer, you can." I said to him in a sarcastic manner.

"Ahan, I would prefer dying rather than having a conversation about my death." Greg replied with air coming out of his ears because that pissed off person he was.

"Why are you such an asshole!?" I exclaimed.

"Because I have a body and an attitude for it." He said trying to compete me.

"Lets keep this aside, How have you been doing?"

"Not been less than a day of you having a glance of me, I suppose asking you that. How have YOU been doing?" He said this to me raising his eyebrows.

"Life's really good to me lately." My confident raised up higher while I said this.

"Where does your confidence come from? We all know you've cried and you are going to let me know why."

"That isnt a thing to be considered."

"IT IS AND YOU'RE GOING TO TELL ME WHAT MADE YOU BURST INTO TEARS!" Greg yelled.

"You wouldnt wish to know. It's just of how undeserving I am to be with you in this Coffee Shop."

"And what makes you think that!?"

"The girls in our college.."

"Why are you such an asshole!?"

"Because I have a body and an attitude for it?"

"Never put yourself down for others. People in our college are just some nosy pr*cks who love to interfere into our lives. I am quite experienced. You would get too!"

"Look at you, you're popular and you deserve going out with a girl of your level because me? I am the vice versa of a girl you'd like."

"Definitely not. You're the girl I'd like."

I blushed with the scene going on. We had deep talks about our past, I opened up to him like no one before and he did too.. Maybe.

"How's your parents these days?" Greg questioned.

"What do you mean?"

"They had a divorce.. Didn't they?"

"How'd you come to know?" I got surprised because no one except my bestfriend Liz knew this.

"You do not need to know that but since I was worried for you, I had to ask this. I know how you must be feeling."

"Must be feeling what?"

"Lonely, because of all the mess going on."

"Like every good girl says, 'I am fine with it' I'm supposed to speak that too but No, you're right. I've been through a lot."

"You wont have to suffer this all alone, I promise."

"Why are you being so good to me?"

"That's just how I wish to be."

(The waiter interrupted)

"What would you guys like to have?"

"2 lattès? That's it yeah." Greg replied to the waiter

"Um no, 1 lattè" I said to the waiter "I am not in a mood for Coffee right now, Greg."

"What's wrong?" Greg asked me while I was so embarrassed to tell him about me having the lattè thrice before he got here.

"Let's just let it go how it's going yeah?" I ignored his talk.

Meanwhile we spent over 3 hours together, where we had deep talks, had fun and even came to the point of exchanging our phone numbers!

And unexpectedly,

We kissed.. Um Yes we did! I fell in love with him, he did too. We left for home after that.

While the first thing I did as soon I got back home was to check my phone if I have received any text from him..

"One of the best date, wasn't it?"
