Strangers In The Almost.

Wasn't aware of what was waiting, wasn't aware of a beautiful encounter.
I was living a normal life. Normal in the sense a typical teenage life even tho I wasn't a teenager anymore, i was 20.
Without being aware of the fact that my life was going to change forever just because of that one encounter.
Being a teenager can be a challenging time, especially when dealing with family problems, relationship issues with parents, depression, and anxiety. It's important to remember that you're not alone in facing these struggles, even though it may feel that way sometimes. Many teenagers go through similar experiences and emotions.
And I was going through those feelings too. Even though it was hard to manage those feelings I was trying to live a normal and peaceful life. (Didn't worked tho-)
It was my examination day and as a student I was stressed too. The feeling before an examination can be a mix of excitement, nervousness, and anticipation. It's like a rollercoaster of emotions! On one hand, there's the excitement of finally putting your knowledge to the test and seeing how well you've prepared. It's a chance to showcase your understanding and hard work.
But at the same time, there's also that nervousness that creeps in. Thoughts like "Did I study enough?" or "What if I forget everything?" start to swirl in your mind. It's completely normal to feel a bit anxious before an exam, especially if it's an important one.
I wore a grey hoodie with the F.R.I.E.N.D.S logo on it and black jeans on that day. It was the most difficult exam and I was ready to face it. We went to the examination hall and gave the exam. after that we planned to go out and have tea together. Well most of the time our plan starts with tea and always endup with a whole meal, although we never regret that.
It was around 4:30 or 5:00 PM we were sitting at the cafe. We were sitting on the four chair sitter left second one from the entry door. We were enjoying ourselves. We were three friends jayla , Adaliya and me. We ordered our go to drink that was chocolate chai (tea). We love chocolate chai it's the taste of sweet tea and sand at the same time and we cannot resist it not even in summers. In the flow we ordered many things as I said it always endup with a meal.
We were enjoying. I was enjoying everything life wasn't even that bad. I was depressed, I was suicidal but I was still living without thinking about those things.
There he entered.
The change of my life entered. If I remember there were 3 boys. When they entered we all looked And I didn't really saw their faces but I knew they were boys. They sat on the side table of our table. We girls gave each other a look of "handsome boys" and laughed it off and focused on our food. We were happily talking and joking about anything we could've thought about.
My eyes met with one of the boys. His eyes were so pretty and soaking. They were deep and the way he was smiling was so sweet. I was at the edge of falling for him but I stopped myself because it was wrong. Our eyes met and I looked away. He was continuously laughing and enjoying with his friends. And on the other side I was enjoying with my friends.
My friend Adaliya is beautiful. Every boy melts on her and I had a thought that the pretty boy was also looking at her even though Our eyes met alot of time.
We ate alot and were feeling sweaty.
Adaliya " don't you guys think it's getting...pretty hot?"
"Yes I'm sweating too" I said opening my palms
"It's November. How is it that you're feeling warm?" Jayla said making a weird face
"Maybe we laughed and ate too much" i said smiling.
Adaliya said waving her hand like a fan "but don't you think it's uncomfortaby warm?"
"Yea it's hot"
This conversation was held at a very low pitch that hardly a human could ever hear.
The pretty Boy was looking at us with a sweetest smile.
"Turn On the AC." He said to the one of the server
"Did he just asked them to on the AC for us?" Adaliya asked me excitedly
"Um maybe?" I said raising my eyebrows.
With a big smile she said "he's sweet"
I passed a smile to her too and nodded slightly.
There were some issues with the AC the worker came and tried to turn it on but it didn't actually got working.
After trying 2 times it started working.
The chilly Breeze gently brushed against my lips, it felt a refreshing coolness and even a slight tingling sensation as it awakened my senses.
I was happy and don't ask me why. For me at that time it was an effort he made for all of us and the fact that in all of us comes me too. It made me happy that somebody has put an effort for me.
We went back to eating and joking. We joked about Adaliya to the point she stoop up laughing and left her seat as she was loosing breath laughing and to get some air she left the cafe for less than a minute. Actually I am funny so my friends has always to laugh about something.
"Did we bullied her alot? " I asked Jayla With a friendly smile
"Maybe" we laughed.
Adaliya came back smiling and in sarcastic way she said "I'll leave if you roasted me again"
"Yea yea come sit here and eat your food before it gets cold" i said patting the chair.
She sat and started loosing her belt "I ate alot"
"Yea we did. but does it matter? For me it's not because Food was delicious and our mood is good too" i said with a gentle smile.
