An Encounter
17th April 2015, Friday.
I honestly do not know what to write here, the only reason why I came here was because my friend told me to share this with all of you. This is my first time writing here and I am using my friend's account so I am not the realAbdul73, you guys can just refer to me as Anonymous.
Here I go,
I have been going to this particular cafe near my office quite frequently for the past two weeks or so. Is it because the buns, breads and pastries there are good? Yes, they are but the reason for me to go there is actually far from just having pastries for tea time. The reason I go there frequently is because of a waitress who works there.
Yes, I go there just to get a glimpse of her. The first time I saw her, I know this may sound cliche but I could not take my eyes of her and it was like love at first sight. There was just something about her that fascinates me. I don't know what is it about her but there is something. Have I spoken to her before? Yes, she took my orders a couple of times but most of the time it was someone else.
I do not know how I feel about her but I find myself always searching for her whenever I go there. Am I being creepy for doing that? Would she think that I am a stalker or a creep? But then I always go there only during tea time and if I were to really be a stalker then I would be there the whole day right? Is this normal?
I mean it's not like I just sit there and just look at her, I check my emails, I order coffee and pastries. And sometimes my eyes roam around the caf to see her. I told a couple of my friend about this strange behavior of mine as I have never acted this way before. They all teased me saying that I was in love with her. But how can it be?! Was it possible to fall for someone at first sight?
I could be in love with her, how else can I explain why my eyes searching for her every day? But to fall for a stranger whom I don't know anything about just seems crazy to me. What if she has a boyfriend? What if she doesn't have a boyfriend? She is definitely not married as there is no sindoorbetween her maang, there is no mangalsutra around her neck and there is no ring on her ring finger.
So what is stopping me from telling her how I feel about her? Nothing really, I am just waiting for the perfect timing and I have decided no matter the consequences I will tell her how I feel.
Two days later...
He had been very busy at work, he couldn't go to the cafe as there were lots of work pending, so he spend the past few days in the office. Finally after going home he logged in to read the comments and found this one comment that caught his attention.
Hello there Anonymous, I was randomly browsing some blogs when I found this write up.
Your encounter with this waitress intrigues me. You said that you felt that it was love at first sight for you when you first saw her? Funny thing is that your situation and mine are rather similar.
In the blog above you wrote that you have been frequently going to this cafe to get a glimpse of that waitress right? My situation is almost the same, I am a part time waitress in a cafe and there is this one customer whom I noticed was always there during my shift. At first I mistook him for a creep, but then I realise that he comes and leaves the caf after exactly an hour. Not a minute late.
I do not know him as a matter of fact he is practically a stranger to me but I can't help but notice him whenever he is there. He is always seated on that very same table every evening, with the same cup of coffee - black with lots of sugar and different varieties of pastries each day. He may not look so at first glance but he has quite the sweet tooth.
Now I know it may be a coincidence that he is always there the same time as me but I can't help thinking that he comes to the cafe just to see me. Well, I can't prove it as he is always stuck to his phone. By my constant observation I could tell that he is a very busy man, he dresses smartly in suits and I also noticed that he doesn't wear any ring on his ring finger, meaning that he is single.
That comes to my question to you. If let's say you were the customer I just told you about and if I were to tell you that I like you, what would your answer be? Or rather how would you react to my confession?
I hope everything works out for you and the waitress.
What this girl wrote sounds similar to mine. Could it be her?! No, way, that would be... He search for her and found some pictures of her. It is her! I can't believe it!? It really is her.
Next day at the cafe
There he sat on that very same table waiting for a waiter to come take his orders. She walked towards his table.
"May I take your order Sir?" She asked.
"Yes, I would like a cup of coffee - black with lots of sugar..." She giggled when she heard him say that and he looked at her with a raised eyebrow as though asking her what is so funny and continued "And I would some macaroons please."
"Is that all Sir?" She asked.
"Yes. Actually no, there is some more." He said.
"What would you like Sir?" She asked.
"I would like to give you the answer to your question." He replied.
"What question?" She asked.
"That if I were to hear the waitress or rather the woman I love confess to me, I would gladly say yes." He answered.
"What? I don't under... ..." Her eyes grew wide as she realised what he had just said.
"Hi, I am Jalalludin Muhammad, and I am in love with you." He smiled.
"Hello, I am Jodha Sharma and I am in love with you too." She replied.
