Truth is, I reached there early while I did say I was on the way. Sitting down in Starbucks, I got caught up with a bunch of koala bears, oops, Aussie's I mean, and we had quite a long chat on local places and the lovely weather.

Nervous was I. I don't know why but it felt worst then sitting for SPM. Or maybe they tie. Probably it might have been the fear of how would you react to me and so on. I looked at my reflection and I thought I saw myself with a handbag. But no, it was the camera case.

In and out I went. I was but a freak of time and consciousness. Why wasn't it felt like a normal date? For it had a deal in it? Maybe it was too hyped with words and ideas. Or maybe its just me.

The Aussie's seemed to have a great time talking with me, which made me slowly forget my fears of meeting you. Sooner or later, I was all warmed up and I threw goodbyes to the Koala Bears.

I went out while I was already in Pyramid. How awkward, but I thought it made sense. Then you gave a call and told me that you were in and I prepared myself as if I was entering Pyramid for the first time.

And there you were, walking towards me and for a moment I saw you as my cousin. But no, you had those features I can't never see in my cousin's, the guinea pig look. The first few sentences I blurted out to you practically hinted you that I was nervous. That's my nature, I fear the unknown. Anyways, you weren't that scary as you did not bite me abit.

I couldn't believe that we talked as if we have met before. Usually, it would have been a quieter environment and probably only a sentence of 3 or four would be spoken out. And it would be dull. But this one, you laughed and smiled and I thought you could really make a good joker. I felt that sense of humour. Gosh, those glasses were cool.

I noticed something in you. You had nothing to hide and that everything you spoke came from your heart. Definitely, maybe. That movie pretty much reminds me about us. As you said, millions of heartbreaks untill you finally meet the right one. The part where Hayes gets to his knees and was about to propose to Emily(Sarah actually), I saw a little of you while the scene was going on. Most of them were laughing while you didn't. I guess you felt it deep.

Lunch was chickenish. Neither of us finished it. Probably it was too huge for a quarter. I watched the way you ate. You practically choke your food while chewing. Wow. Unique. We talked alot and laughed that time moved pretty fast. I guess I'll never see fast food the same way again.

Deli France was the longest we spent in. You told me more about yourself and some of your stories touched me. If you did realise, I teared a little. Though you smile and grinned while telling the story, I could see the grief in those eyes. What you said reflected me back, I have what you don't and yet I'm not having love. It seemed ironic but you made me realise something important. I need the warmth in there.

We flipped a coin to decide our happenings in life. I might have believe some. What if everything the coin showed came true? It might be good, or the otherwise. We were lacking of one question though. But you and I knew it probably wasn't the right time to question that out yet.

As I walked you back, I kept thinking of Today. In fact, I thought alot on Today. Things which would happen in the future. Or might not. I suddenly stopped walking for something hit me. I pretended to check my mobile but I was actually thinking hard. What if Today never did happen? Would my state of mind and how I see things would differ? Would I change my perception on this thing called.?

As we walked on the flyover bridge, I remembered about the chain I was wearing. It had the letter "S" in it. Funny how I bought it out of the choice of letters I had that day. Did you remind me of the sunset and sunrise? S? Probably.

As you ran to your awaiting car, it reminded me of Cinderella. Rushing off for dinner. I forgot to tell you something though. All this while, I saw Today as a hair deal and somehow a turned over date. After seeing you and all, I realised something. It wasn't about hairs or stallions, it was about me finally seeing you in real. I guess, thats the best thing about Today. Me and you finally meeting. Us.


And yeah, I'll never forget the part where I fed you youghurt. Never before.

I had the best days of my life.
