Yesterday was Daria’s 15th birthday party. We went to a Serbian restaurant “The Balkan House” and I guess I could say that I had a lovely time. I saw some old friends and watched the singer dance in her mini skirt. I remember at some point I had tears in my eyes, and I don’t even know why.
The way Daria’s boyfriend looked at her was so beautiful…the way he played with her hair...
And I thought of him. If I had seen him on the street somewhere walking, I would have gotten out of that car and ran to him, kissed him, told him I loved him, and I would have said good-bye. But that only happens in fairy tales and lame love stories.
Today was a whole different story. Once again I had tears in my eyes but this time I knew why. I spent the whole day alone. The hours passed by like minutes, at some point it actually started to scare me…
And I called her hopping to have some company but I guess some people are better left alone because they only disappoint you and their love turns out to be fake.
Ahh…yes, friendship…what a wonderful disaster…
I keep having this thought in my head. Like a movie rolling, I see myself with my English teacher in her house drinking hot chocolate and discussing novels. And it’s perfect. It’s snowing outside and she listens to me and I keep her company…she’s not alone.
Tomorrow I shall take a walk and go see those boots I’ve had my eye on.
And Chapters and Starbucks coffee will make me feel like new again.
